In pursuing your motorcycle injury or accident case, the California Attorney Group will submit a Complaint, also known as a Petition. The Complaint will state your situation to the court, identify the defendant (the person or group of people you will be bringing legal action against) and will detail the grounds for legal action as well as your specific demands from the defendant. These demands, of course, will be those that your personal injury attorney at the California Attorney Group discussed with you in your initial meeting. The Summons and Service of Process will be sent out at the same time or after the Complaint, and it will notify the defendant of the Complaint, and will give the time frame for their response.
The Complaint, Summons and Service of Process are the very first court documents written and sent by the California Attorney Group, and may be all the initial documents needed to send. In response, the defendant will submit an Answer to the Complaint, and can admit, deny, or claim that there is “insufficient knowledge to admit or deny.”
If a Counterclaim is filed, as it may be in Los Angeles motorcycle accident cases, the knowledge and skill of the California Attorney Group will again be pressed into action. A Counterclaim is similar to a Complaint, but is sent back to you, the plaintiff with claims made by the defendant.
