About Beverly Hills, CA
Los Angeles County, CA
Orange County, CA
Riverside County, CA
San Bernardino, CA
Beverly Hills sits at the heart of Los Angeles County and is one of the most traveled areas in Southern California. Major roadways like Wilshire Boulevard, Santa Monica Boulevard, and Sunset Boulevard see heavy vehicle and pedestrian traffic every day — creating conditions where serious accidents can and do happen.
Los Angeles County is home to more than 10 million people, making it the most populous county in the United States. According to the California Highway Patrol (CHP), tens of thousands of injury collisions are reported across the county every year. The dense population and heavy freeway use — including the I-405, I-10, and US-101 — contribute to a consistently high rate of car accidents, truck crashes, and pedestrian injuries.
Orange County stretches along the Southern California coast and includes major cities like Anaheim, Santa Ana, and Irvine. With millions of residents and a heavily traveled freeway network including the I-5, SR-55, and SR-91, serious injury accidents are a daily reality. Pedestrian and bicycle accidents are especially common in high-traffic commercial corridors.
Riverside County covers a large stretch of inland Southern California, with rapidly growing communities like Riverside, Corona, and Moreno Valley. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) reports that inland counties like Riverside see a significant number of truck-related collisions due to major freight corridors running through the region. Our Riverside County personal injury attorneys are ready to help injured victims across this region.
San Bernardino County is the largest county by area in the contiguous United States. Its vast geography includes busy commercial truck routes and mountain passes that increase the risk of serious crashes. Catastrophic injuries — including traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord damage — are not uncommon when large commercial vehicles are involved in collisions on these corridors.
Across all five of these service areas, the Law Offices of Mann & Elias is positioned to advocate aggressively for injured victims and their families.

The Law Offices of Mann & Elias handles a full range of serious personal injury and employment law cases for clients throughout Beverly Hills and the surrounding Southern California counties. Here is a closer look at what we offer:
Car Accidents
Car accidents are among the leading causes of serious injury in California. Whether you were rear-ended on Wilshire Boulevard or hit at an intersection in Orange County, you have the right to seek compensation for your injuries, lost wages, and pain and suffering. California follows a pure comparative fault rule under California Civil Code Section 1714, which means even if you were partially at fault, you may still recover damages.
Our attorneys know how insurance companies operate, and we build strong cases backed by evidence. Learn more about what your case may be worth by visiting our page on the average settlement for a personal injury lawsuit in California.
Truck Crashes
Collisions involving large commercial trucks can cause devastating, life-altering injuries. Trucking companies and their insurers move quickly to protect their interests after a crash — which is why you need experienced attorneys on your side just as fast. Our team understands the federal and state regulations that govern the trucking industry, including hours-of-service rules enforced by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
If you were injured in a truck crash in Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, or Orange County, our attorneys know exactly what steps to take. Read our guide on what to do after a truck accident in Los Angeles for critical first steps.
Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrian accidents often result in catastrophic injuries because walkers have no protection against a moving vehicle. In Beverly Hills and throughout Los Angeles County, pedestrian fatalities and serious injuries are reported every year. California law gives pedestrians significant rights in crosswalks and at intersections, but proving fault still requires solid legal work.
Our attorneys investigate every angle — from driver negligence to dangerous road conditions — to build the strongest possible case for our pedestrian accident clients.
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
A traumatic brain injury can change every aspect of a person’s life, from their ability to work to their relationships and daily functioning. TBI claims are complex and require medical documentation, expert witnesses, and aggressive legal strategy. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), motor vehicle crashes are one of the leading causes of TBI-related hospitalizations.
Our team is experienced in handling TBI claims and maximizing compensation for our clients. See our detailed guide on how to prove a brain injury claim after a car accident in California.
Wrongful Death
Losing a family member due to someone else’s negligence is one of the most painful experiences imaginable. California law allows surviving family members to bring a wrongful death claim to recover damages including funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and loss of companionship. Under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 377.60, certain close relatives have the legal right to file these claims.
The Law Offices of Mann & Elias handles wrongful death cases with the compassion and tenacity that grieving families deserve. We fight to hold negligent parties fully accountable.
Catastrophic Injury
Spinal cord injuries, amputations, severe burns, and other catastrophic injuries require lifelong care and support. These cases demand a law firm that understands how to calculate future damages — including ongoing medical treatment, rehabilitation, and lost earning capacity. Our attorneys have the experience and resources to go up against well-funded defense teams and insurance companies.
Employment Law
California employees have some of the strongest workplace protections in the country. If you have been wrongfully terminated, discriminated against, harassed, or denied proper wages, our employment law team is ready to fight for you. Founding partner Imad Elias leads our employment law practice with more than 35 jury trials under his belt and has been named to the California Super Lawyers list every single year since 2015 — an honor given only to the top 5% of attorneys in the state.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?
In most personal injury cases in California, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit under the state’s statute of limitations. If your claim involves a government entity, the deadline can be as short as six months to file an administrative claim. Acting quickly protects your rights and preserves critical evidence.
What damages can I recover after a serious accident in Beverly Hills?
You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, future medical care, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, and emotional distress. In wrongful death cases, surviving family members may also recover funeral expenses and loss of companionship. Every case is different, and our attorneys can evaluate what your claim is worth during a free consultation.
What should I do immediately after an accident in Beverly Hills or West Los Angeles?
First, seek medical attention right away — even if you feel fine. Some injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, may not show symptoms immediately. Document the scene, gather contact information from witnesses, and report the accident to law enforcement. Then contact an experienced personal injury attorney before speaking with any insurance adjuster.
How does California’s comparative fault rule affect my case?
California uses a pure comparative fault system, which means your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault — but you can still recover even if you were partially responsible for the accident. For example, if you were 20% at fault and your damages total $100,000, you can still recover $80,000. An experienced attorney can help ensure that fault is assigned fairly in your case.
Does the Law Offices of Mann & Elias handle cases outside of Beverly Hills?
Yes. We serve clients throughout Los Angeles County, Orange County, Riverside County, and San Bernardino County. The firm is licensed to practice in all California Superior Courts, all California Courts of Appeal, the California Supreme Court, and all Federal District Courts in California. We are not licensed to practice in any other state.
What does it cost to hire Mann & Elias for a personal injury case?
Our personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee basis — meaning you pay nothing upfront and owe no attorney’s fees unless we recover compensation for you. This allows anyone who has been seriously injured to access experienced legal representation without financial risk.
Can I still file a claim if the at-fault driver was uninsured?
Yes. California law requires drivers to carry uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, and your own insurance policy may cover your damages if the at-fault driver has no insurance. Our attorneys can review your policy and identify all available sources of compensation, including underinsured motorist coverage.
