Who is on the Lederer & Nojima LLP team?

The public attorney page lists David J. Lederer, John Nojima, and Eddie Dennis. David J. Lederer is listed as President and Founding Partner, John Nojima is listed as Partner, and Eddie Dennis is listed as Trial Attorney on the firm's attorney page.

How does the team background help a Burbank injury case?

It helps by matching the evidence plan to how insurers and defense lawyers test injury claims. David Lederer's public bio says he spent the early years of his career defending corporations and insurance companies before representing injured people, and John Nojima's public bio says he spent five years at a large corporate insurance defense firm.

What does Burbank crash data say about case preparation?

Burbank crash data says the case file should be built around the exact collision type, not a generic injury story. CHP CCRS Crashes_2025 lists 449 Burbank crashes, 297 injured people, and 0 deaths in city-name records queried September 3, 2026.

The same source lists 204 Burbank rear-end crashes, 120 side-swipe crashes, and 43 broadside crashes. Each pattern calls for different proof: braking, lane position, signal timing, witnesses, and camera footage.

When should a Burbank client contact the team?

A Burbank client should contact the team early when injuries continue, fault is disputed, an insurer requests a recorded statement, medical bills are arriving, or a public vehicle or public property may be involved. California Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1 gives two years for many injury lawsuits, while California Government Code section 911.2 can require many claims against a public entity within six months.

Those deadlines do not decide case value. They decide how quickly the file must be protected. Early review helps preserve photos, video, treatment notes, witness information, police reports, repair documents, claim numbers, and communications from insurers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much of a $25,000 settlement will I get?

A $25,000 settlement does not produce one fixed take-home number because attorney fees, case costs, medical bills, health insurance liens, and reimbursement claims can change the net recovery. California Business and Professions Code section 6147 requires contingency fee contracts to be in writing and to include specific terms, so the fee agreement should be reviewed before anyone estimates a net amount.

Do not treat an online percentage as your answer. Ask for a case-specific breakdown that separates gross settlement, fee, costs, medical balances, liens, and the estimated client net.

What are the hardest lawsuits to win?

The hardest injury lawsuits are often the ones with disputed fault, weak causation proof, late medical treatment, missing witnesses, low insurance limits, or a defendant with strong documentation. California Civil Code section 1714 states the general negligence rule, but the evidence still has to show duty, breach, causation, and damages.

For Burbank crash cases, the CHP CCRS collision type can guide the proof plan. A broadside crash may need signal timing and camera footage, while a rear-end crash may turn on speed, following distance, impact force, and treatment records.

Who is the number one injury lawyer?

There is no single public source that names one number one injury lawyer for every Burbank or Southern California case. A better question is whether the lawyer's background, staff, communication, litigation posture, and case type match the facts in front of you.

The public Lederer & Nojima LLP attorney pages let a prospective client compare David Lederer, John Nojima, and Eddie Dennis by role, education, admissions, and case-handling background. That is more useful than a generic ranking claim.

What are the odds of winning a personal injury lawsuit?

No ethical lawyer can give universal odds of winning a personal injury lawsuit from a short online summary. The answer depends on liability evidence, medical causation, damages proof, insurance coverage, witness credibility, deadlines, and whether the case settles or goes to trial.

California Rules of Court, Standard 2.2 gives civil case disposition goals for filed unlimited civil cases, including 75 percent within 12 months, 85 percent within 18 months, and 100 percent within 24 months. Those are court management goals, not odds of winning and not a settlement timeline.

Can the same attorney stay involved after intake?

Ask that directly during the consultation because staffing can depend on the claim type, litigation stage, and attorney availability. The best first call should identify who reviews the facts, who handles communication, and when an attorney steps in if the insurer disputes fault or injuries.

For Burbank clients, that question is practical. A crash near a studio, retail center, freeway ramp, school, or apartment complex may need fast evidence letters, and the client should know who is responsible for that work.

Talk with Lederer & Nojima LLP about a Burbank injury case

A focused Burbank case review starts with the incident date, exact location, photographs, police report number, medical visits, insurance letters, witness names, repair records, and any messages from the other side. If the claim involves a public bus, city vehicle, public sidewalk, roadway condition, school property, or public employee, raise that immediately because Government Code section 911.2 may create a shorter claim deadline.

During the consultation, ask who will review liability, who will track medical proof, who will communicate with the insurer, and what evidence should be preserved that same week. Clear roles matter in Burbank cases because a missed camera request, incomplete treatment note, or rushed recorded statement can make a valid claim harder to prove later.

Location details can change the investigation. A crash near I-5, SR-134, Magnolia Boulevard, Olive Avenue, Glenoaks Boulevard, San Fernando Boulevard, Hollywood Burbank Airport, a studio lot, or a shopping center may involve different cameras, property owners, witnesses, traffic controls, and insurance policies. The lawyer's job is to connect those facts to liability, medical proof, and available recovery without promising an outcome.

If your matter connects to nearby Phase 1 service areas, these pages may help you compare the local evidence plan: Santa Monica personal injury lawyer, Culver City personal injury lawyer, and Beverly Hills personal injury lawyer. If the case involves a vehicle crash, the Santa Monica car accident lawyer page is also relevant.

The next step is a case evaluation, not a settlement prediction. Contact Lederer & Nojima LLP at (310) 312-1860 or use the contact page. Bring the records you have, and ask which attorney background fits the claim. Results may vary. Contact our office for a case evaluation.
