The Law Offices of Edgar P. Lombera
We Fight. You Recover.
Car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, wrongful death. No fee unless we win. Your free consultation starts with one call.
Our law firm represents accident victims across Hemet, the San Jacinto Valley, and the greater Inland Empire. Whether you suffered injuries in a car accident on SR-74 (Florida Avenue), a truck accident along SR-79, or a motorcycle crash on one of the rural roads connecting Hemet to San Jacinto, our lawyers fight to recover the maximum compensation you deserve.
Car accidents are common in Hemet, especially on SR-74 (Florida Avenue) where traffic, speeding, and distracted driving cause frequent collisions. We handle rear-end crashes, T-bone collisions, hit-and-run accidents, and rideshare (Uber/Lyft) accidents. Call (909) 915-0181.
Truck accidents on roads through Hemet and the San Jacinto Valley cause devastating injuries due to the massive size differential between commercial vehicles and passenger cars. Our personal injury law firm handles truck accident cases involving brake failure, fatigued truck driver violations, unsecured cargo, and overloaded trailers. The truck driver, the trucking company, the cargo loader, and the motor vehicle manufacturer may all share fault. Our personal injury attorneys hold every responsible party accountable. Call (909) 915-0181 for a free consultation after any truck accident near Hemet.
Motorcycle accidents frequently result in severe injuries — traumatic brain injury, spinal cord damage, road rash, broken bones, and death — because motorcycle riders lack the structural protection of an enclosed vehicle. Hemet and the San Jacinto Valley attract motorcycle riders year-round, and rural roads combined with high-speed corridors create serious safety risks for motorcycle riders. Our personal injury attorneys represent motorcycle accident victims throughout Hemet and Southern California, handling left-turn motorcycle collisions, lane splitting incidents, helmet law disputes, and road hazard crashes. Insurance companies try to assign unfair fault to motorcycle riders — our personal injury lawyer uses accident reconstruction evidence to protect your right to full compensation. Contact (909) 915-0181 for a free motorcycle accident case evaluation.
When a loved one dies due to another person's negligence in a traffic collision or other accident, the surviving family faces not only devastating grief but also mounting financial pressure from funeral costs, lost household income, and medical bills from final treatment. A wrongful death claim allows the family to seek accountability and financial compensation for their profound loss.
Under California law (CCP §377.60), the following family members may file a wrongful death lawsuit: spouses, domestic partners, children of the deceased, and in some cases grandchildren or other dependents. Our Hemet wrongful death attorneys help families recover compensation for funeral and burial expenses, loss of the deceased's expected income and financial support, loss of consortium — the companionship, comfort, affection, and guidance the family has lost — loss of parental guidance for minor children, and emotional distress suffered by surviving family members.
Loss of consortium is a particularly significant element in wrongful death cases. A spouse who has lost their partner, a child who has lost a parent, or a parent who has lost an adult child suffers damages that extend far beyond financial loss. Our law firm works with life-care planners and economists to calculate the full scope of these damages and present compelling evidence to the insurance company or jury.
In wrongful death cases involving drunk driving, driving under the influence, or extreme recklessness, punitive damages may also be available under California Civil Code §3294. Our attorneys aggressively pursue every avenue of recovery in wrongful death cases, fighting to hold the negligent parties fully accountable. If your family has suffered a wrongful death in Hemet or the San Jacinto Valley, call (909) 915-0181 for a compassionate and confidential consultation.
Pedestrian and bicycle accidents in Hemet often cause catastrophic injuries because these road users have no protection against a motor vehicle. Our personal injury attorneys represent pedestrian accident victims injured along Florida Avenue, at crosswalks, and on residential streets in Hemet and San Jacinto.
Dog owners are strictly liable under Civil Code §3342. If bitten, the owner is liable for medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages. Call (909) 915-0181.

As a personal injury plaintiff, you may be entitled to several categories of damages depending on the severity of your injuries. Our Hemet personal injury lawyer evaluates every category to ensure you receive maximum financial compensation under California law.
Economic damages compensate you for measurable financial losses: medical bills, physical therapy, lost wages and lost income, loss of future earning capacity, and property damage. Our personal injury attorneys work with experts to calculate current and future losses.
Non-economic damages compensate you for pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, disfigurement, loss of consortium for spouses and family members, and mental health impacts. Insurance companies routinely undervalue these damages — our personal injury lawyer fights for the full compensation you deserve.
In cases involving extreme recklessness or intentional misconduct — such as drunk driving, driving under the influence, or corporate bad faith — California Civil Code §3294 allows courts to award punitive damages on top of compensatory damages. Our attorneys aggressively pursue punitive damages when the evidence supports them.
After an accident in Hemet, the at-fault driver's insurance company is not on your side. Their adjusters are trained to minimize every personal injury claim. Here is what they do — and how our lawyers protect you:
Our personal injury attorneys handle all insurance communication from day one, shielding you from these tactics and holding carriers accountable.
The statute of limitations sets strict deadlines for filing a personal injury lawsuit in California. Miss a deadline and the court will dismiss your case — no matter how strong your claim. Understanding these deadlines is critical to protecting your legal rights.
| Claim Type | Deadline | Authority |
|---|---|---|
| Personal injury (car, truck, motorcycle, pedestrian accidents) | 2 years from date of injury | CCP §335.1 |
| Wrongful death | 2 years from date of death | CCP §335.1 |
| Claims against government entities | 6 months to file administrative claim | Gov. Code §911.2 |
| Minor's personal injury claims | Tolled until age 18, then 2 years | CCP §352 |
| Property damage only | 3 years | CCP §338 |
California's comparative negligence rule allows you to recover damages even if partially at fault. The burden of proof requires the plaintiff to show that the defendant owed a duty of care, breached that standard of care through negligence, and caused your injuries. Our personal injury attorneys gather evidence early — before it disappears — to build the strongest case.
Don't wait. Deadlines are real and evidence fades every day.

Our personal injury law firm works on a contingency fee basis — you pay nothing upfront and no legal fees unless we win. The standard contingency fee in California is 33-40% of the recovery. Call our Hemet personal injury attorney at (909) 915-0181 for your free consultation.
The statute of limitations for personal injury cases in California is 2 years from the date of injury (CCP §335.1). Wrongful death claims also have a 2-year deadline. Claims against government entities require notice within 6 months (Gov. Code §911.2). Contact our Hemet personal injury lawyer immediately — missing a deadline means losing your right to compensation.
After an accident in Hemet, prioritize safety and call 911. Document the scene with photos. Exchange insurance information with all drivers. Get witness contact details. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine — many injuries take days to manifest. Do not admit fault or give recorded statements to any insurance company. Call our personal injury attorneys at (909) 915-0181 for a free case evaluation before the insurance company contacts you.
Every personal injury case is unique. Factors include severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of consortium, and insurance policy limits. In drunk driving cases, punitive damages under Civil Code §3294 may increase your recovery. Our Hemet personal injury lawyer provides a free case evaluation to assess your situation.
Our personal injury law firm handles car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, bicycle accidents, rideshare accidents, dog bite injuries, wrongful death claims, and catastrophic injuries throughout Hemet and the San Jacinto Valley. If your case involves a slip-and-fall or workplace injury, we will connect you with trusted counsel who specializes in those areas.
Most personal injury cases settle through negotiation without going to trial — approximately 90-95% resolve pre-trial. If the insurance company refuses fair compensation, our personal injury lawyers are prepared to take your case to trial at the Riverside County Superior Court.
If the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, you may still recover compensation through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage under your own insurance policy. California law requires insurance companies to offer UM/UIM coverage. Our attorneys investigate every avenue of recovery, including the personal assets of the defendant, employer liability, and other potentially liable parties. Call (909) 915-0181 for a free consultation about your legal options.
California follows a pure comparative negligence rule — you can recover damages even if partially at fault. If found 20% at fault, you still recover 80% of your total damages. Insurance companies aggressively assign more fault to personal injury plaintiffs than warranted. Our personal injury attorneys use evidence to minimize your fault percentage and maximize your compensation.
