What Our Clients Say

★★★★★ Rated 5.0 out of 5 based on 127 Google reviews

Deb S.★★★★★

From start to finish, David Gammill provided excellent representation. His knowledge of personal injury law is clear, and he handled my case with efficiency and care. He was easy to talk to and never made me feel rushed when we spoke. I always knew what was happening throughout the process. He was creative in his strategy and remained committed to securing the best possible outcome. If you’re looking for a personal injury attorney look no further, David is the best of the best.

Anthony S.★★★★★

I was seeking strong legal representation to recover damages after being assaulted, and after consulting several attorneys, I chose David Gammill, and I’m incredibly glad I did. From our very first conversation, David’s calm, confident demeanor and straightforward approach stood out immediately. He is a true straight shooter who clearly knows his field inside and out. His extensive experience and deep knowledge of personal injury law are impressive, yet he never comes across as just “another lawyer,” he truly elevates the profession and sets the gold standard for what an attorney should be. I thoroughly reviewed his online feedback before deciding, and the consistent five-star ratings made perfect sense once I worked with him. His dedication, communication, and results speak for themselves. I rarely write reviews, but if you’re searching for an exceptional attorney to fight for you in a personal injury case, you would be doing yourself a serious disservice by not reaching out to David Gammill. Highly recommended, without hesitation.

An injury can make you feel many things…

Left with few options

Stuck with bills you can’t pay

Anxious to put your injury behind you

You don’t have to feel that way any longer.

My name is David Gammill. I am a California trial lawyer and the founder of Gammill Law Accident & Injury Lawyers. Our firm has recovered more than $100 million for California clients. Our results include a $21.1 million wrongful death verdict, a $16 million school sexual abuse verdict, and a $12 million whistleblower retaliation verdict. I learned to try cases in front of juries early in my career as a Deputy District Attorney, and trying cases remains the backbone of my practice.

It happened so fast

The aftermath is sudden. In one moment, everything changes. What you do next will either help your case or hurt it.
California law gives injured people real rights and real deadlines. The sections below cover the questions we hear most from people in Torrance and across the South Bay: what to do first, how long you have, what a case may be worth, and what a lawyer costs. Each section links to a deeper guide on this site.

First Steps After a California Accident

Get Medical Care First

See a doctor at the first sign of injury, even if you feel mostly fine. Some serious injuries take days to show symptoms, and your medical records become the backbone of your claim.

Report the Crash

California requires a DMV SR-1 report within 10 days when a crash causes injury, death, or property damage over $1,000. Read our guide on what to do after a California car accident, or the Torrance-specific version: what to do immediately after a crash in Torrance.

Preserve Evidence

Photos, witness names, and written notes taken in the first days are worth more than memory months later. Keep everything, including damaged property.

Be Careful With Insurance Calls

You are not required to give the other driver’s insurer a recorded statement. Talk to a lawyer before you do.

The Deadlines That Control a California Injury Case

Two Years for Most Injury Claims

Most California personal injury lawsuits must be filed within two years of the injury under Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1. Miss it and the case is usually over. Our CCP 335.1 guide explains the rule and its exceptions.

Six Months for Government Claims

If a city, county, school district, or state agency is involved, a written government claim is generally due within six months. The clock is short and unforgiving. Our government claim deadline guide covers it.

What a Case May Be Worth, and What a Lawyer Costs

How Case Value Works

Case value starts with your actual losses: medical bills, lost income, and future care, plus compensation for pain and how the injury changed your life. Our settlement guide explains the categories.

No Fee Unless We Win

Personal injury lawyers in California typically work on contingency, commonly in the range of 33 to 40 percent of the recovery, and 33.3 percent is the most common starting point. You pay nothing up front. Read how no-win-no-fee works and what a personal injury lawyer costs in Torrance.
