Introduction

We provide quality and aggressive legal services to persons who are injured in auto accidents, motorcycle accidents, dog attacks and dangerous property conditions. My prior experience includes working as a law clerk to Sacramento Superior Court Judges and then working as an independent contractor to more than 40 attorneys and law firms. With this prior experience, I have gained knowledge of the law in all types of legal cases and understand the litigation and court process very well. I know, from personal knowledge and the results I have obtained for my clients, that this prior experience of vast legal knowledge translates to obtaining outstanding outcomes in cases for my clients. Here is an example: A client was offered $5,000.00 by an insurance company, for injuries suffered in an auto accident. The client then decided to hire attorney Jim Dighero after that low offer. Thereafter, Mr. Dighero filed a lawsuit in Superior Court and took the deposition of the other driver who caused the collision and injuries. It was determined that the other driver caused 3 other motor vehicle collisions in a short period of time. That helped to get the case settled for $50,000.00, a substantially greater amount than what was previously offered. *** Send attorney James Dighero a text through Thumbtack for a quick response, directly from him, regarding your case, or google James Dighero for 5 star reviews and the law office phone number.
