San Diego Car Crash Lawyer

A car crash can flip your world upside down in seconds. One moment, you're driving to work or picking up your kids — and the next, you're in pain, overwhelmed with medical bills, car repairs, missed time from work, and pressure from insurance adjusters. It’s a confusing, stressful time — and you shouldn't go through it alone.

If you’re searching for a San Diego car crash lawyer who can bring both compassion and strategic firepower, you’ve found the right firm. At AK Injury Law Firm, we do more than represent clients — we advocate, we strategize, and we win.

Founded by Dr. Azadeh Keshavarz, a former chiropractor turned attorney, our firm brings an unmatched combination of medical understanding and legal precision. When you hire us, you’re not just hiring a lawyer — you’re hiring someone who truly understands your pain, anticipates the insurance company’s playbook, and knows how to fight for the full value of your case.

Why You Need a San Diego Car Crash Lawyer Immediately After a Collision

After a crash, it’s tempting to wait — to see how your body feels, to let the insurance company “handle things.” But waiting often leads to lower compensation, denied claims, or even lost legal rights.

Hiring a San Diego car crash lawyer early means:

  • Evidence is preserved (photos, surveillance, vehicle damage)
  • Medical documentation is handled correctly
  • You’re protected from giving damaging statements to insurers
  • Your injuries are taken seriously — not minimized
  • Your claim is strategically positioned from day one

Insurance companies have one goal: pay you as little as possible. We make sure they don’t get away with it.

Dr. Azadeh Keshavarz: From Medical Provider to Legal Powerhouse

What sets AK Injury Law Firm apart from other San Diego car crash lawyers?

Dr. Azadeh Keshavarz’s background.

Before becoming a lawyer, she spent years as a chiropractor, treating patients who had been injured in car accidents. She saw firsthand how insurance companies dismiss “soft tissue” injuries, deny legitimate claims, and pressure victims into fast — and unfair — settlements.

That experience fueled her passion to become an attorney who could do something about it.

Today, she brings a rare combination of medical insight and legal strategy that allows her to:

  • Understand your injuries better than most attorneys
  • Spot red flags in your medical documentation
  • Anticipate how insurers will try to twist your case
  • Build legal arguments that align with real-world medical knowledge

When you hire us, you get more than legal experience — you get medical credibility, and that changes the outcome of your case.

What to Do After a Car Crash in San Diego

If you’ve been involved in a collision — whether on the I-5, I-15, Highway 163, or a surface street like El Cajon Blvd or University Ave — here’s what you should do immediately:

  1. Call 911 and get a police report
  2. Take photos of the vehicles, scene, and any injuries
  3. Seek medical attention — even if symptoms are minor
  4. Do NOT give recorded statements to insurance companies
  5. Call a San Diego car crash lawyer as soon as possible

The earlier we get involved, the stronger your case will be.

Types of Car Crash Cases We Handle

As your trusted San Diego car crash lawyer, we represent victims in all types of car accidents, including:

Rear-End Collisions

These are often dismissed as “minor” crashes, but the injuries can be serious — especially to the neck and spine.

Side-Impact (T-Bone) Accidents

Common at intersections, these crashes can cause traumatic injuries and require expert reconstruction.

Multi-Vehicle Pileups

These complex accidents require thorough investigation to determine fault and maximize liability against all responsible parties.

Truck and Commercial Vehicle Accidents

When large trucks are involved, the stakes — and the injuries — are higher. We know how to take on corporate insurance policies.

Rideshare Accidents (Uber/Lyft)

Whether you’re the driver or the passenger, we understand the complicated layers of insurance involved.

Hit-and-Runs or Uninsured Motorists

Even if the driver fled or didn’t have insurance, we can help you recover through your UM/UIM coverage.

Common Injuries in Car Crashes We Fight Compensation For

Car accidents cause a wide range of injuries — some obvious, some subtle but lasting. We help clients recover compensation for:

  • Whiplash and soft tissue injuries
  • Herniated discs and spinal trauma
  • Concussions and traumatic brain injuries
  • Broken bones and orthopedic damage
  • Chronic pain conditions (neck, back, shoulders)
  • PTSD, anxiety, and emotional trauma
  • Scarring or permanent disability

Because Dr. Keshavarz understands these injuries on a clinical level, we never let insurers downplay them.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

As an experienced San Diego car crash lawyer, we fight for every dollar you’re entitled to, including:

  • Emergency medical bills
  • Ongoing treatment and rehabilitation
  • Lost wages
  • Future loss of earning potential
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Property damage
  • Out-of-pocket expenses
  • Punitive damages (in reckless or DUI cases)

We build data-driven, medically accurate demand packages that force insurance companies to respond seriously.

How Insurance Companies Undervalue Car Crash Cases

Here’s what most victims don’t realize: insurance companies are not neutral. They:

  • Use software to underestimate injury values
  • Deny claims for “pre-existing” conditions
  • Claim “minimal property damage = no injury”
  • Delay treatment approvals so symptoms seem unrelated
  • Push quick settlements before full diagnosis

That’s why you need a strategic San Diego car crash lawyer who knows how to dismantle these tactics — and turn the tables.

Our Strategic Process: How We Outthink, Outfight, Outwin

Our approach at AK Injury Law Firm is not just legal — it’s tactical.

Step 1: We Listen

We understand your pain, your goals, and your situation — not just your paperwork.

Step 2: We Document

We collect police reports, crash photos, witness statements, medical records, and imaging — and we actually understand what they mean.

Step 3: We Build the Case

Our demand letters aren’t generic. They’re tailored, powerful, and supported by real-world medical data.

Step 4: We Negotiate Aggressively

We negotiate from a position of strength — always ready to litigate if the insurer won’t settle fairly.

Step 5: We Go to Trial (If Needed)

Many firms fold when trial looms. We prepare for it from day one — and insurers know it.

Client Story: How Strategy Changed the Outcome

“I was rear-ended downtown. My neck hurt but the ER said it was just strain. The insurance company offered $2,000. Then I called Dr. Keshavarz. She looked at my MRI herself and got a specialist to confirm it was a herniated disc. She took over the case and got me $78,000. I can’t thank her enough.”

FAQs – Working With a San Diego Car Crash Lawyer

How much does it cost to hire you?

Nothing upfront. We work on contingency — you pay nothing unless we win.

What if I already started the claim myself?

That’s okay. We can step in at any point and take over negotiations or file a lawsuit if needed.

Do I have to go to court?

Not always. Most cases settle. But we prepare every case for trial, so we’re always ready.

How long do I have to file a claim?

In California, the statute of limitations is 2 years from the date of the accident.
