Our Bay Area Personal Injury Case Results
At Venardi Zurada, we know that the reason results matter is that people’s lives depend on them. While every case is different, we’re proud to have recovered over $100 million in settlements and verdicts that have helped clients rebuild their futures.
- $7.145 million maritime accident: An 80-year-old passenger sustained a severe spinal injury when a tender vessel rose and dropped abruptly on a wave. Through expert testimony and tireless trial preparation, Mark Venardi helped secure lasting financial security for the client.
- $6 million pedestrian accident: A homeless man struck by a car while crossing against a light was offered just $50,000 before trial. Our firm took the case, gathered compelling expert evidence, and negotiated a $6 million settlement shortly before trial, helping the client move forward after the accident.
- $3 million construction site accident: An electrician suffered a serious wrist injury after tripping over rebar at a construction site. We uncovered key evidence of the general contractor’s negligence, and the jury returned a verdict in our client’s favor.

"They were very kind"
I am so grateful for everything that my lawyer, Terry Buller, and paralegal Christina Souza did to settle my personal injury case after I was hit by a car in a crosswalk. They were very kind during a time of great pain and distress. They were so organized and efficient and managed everything with the other party’s insurance, my medical insurance and Medicare – which would have been a nightmare for me to have to deal with after the accident. I am very pleased with the settlement they obtained and would very highly recommend them and the others at Venardi Zurada, LLP.

I can’t say enough great things about my experience and relationship with the Venardi Zurada team. They’ve been direct with me about my personal injury case. They provide excellent customer service and have such kind individuals on the team. All of my questions were answered, and my concerns were addressed. I will definitely recommend this place to those around me.

"Helpful, Informative, and Reliable"
This was the first time I’ve ever used an attorney for anything in my life. Not knowing what to expect, Ryan Kraft helped me through the process of my personal injury claim with no major issues. Now that things are settled, I’m very happy with the service and outcome of my claim. Also, Ariana was helpful in keeping me informed periodically, which was very appreciated. Hopefully, I won’t need an attorney in the future, but if I did, I wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again.

Understanding California’s Statute of Limitations for Personal Injury Claims
Timing is critical after an accident. Under the California statute of limitations, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years from the date of injury. In certain circumstances, like when a government entity is potentially at fault, the deadline is only six months. Delayed discovery may, in limited circumstances, extend deadlines.
Our attorneys can explain how these rules apply to your specific situation, preserve crucial evidence, and make sure your Fairfield personal injury claim is filed on time. Acting quickly helps preserve evidence and protect your right to pursue compensation.
What Compensation Can You Recover After a Personal Injury in Fairfield?
Compensation in a personal injury case is about rebuilding your life, not just covering expenses. In California, victims can pursue three main categories of damages: economic, non-economic, and, in some circumstances, punitive.
Economic damages include medical bills, lost income, and future care costs. Non-economic damages reflect your pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. In rare cases, punitive damages may apply to punish reckless or intentional wrongdoing.
At Venardi Zurada, we take a hands-on approach to understanding your needs and telling your story, so that your claim reflects the full scope of your injuries and losses.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Do I Have To File a Personal Injury Claim in California?
Most claims must be filed within two years from the date of injury, though exceptions apply for minors and government-related cases. It’s best to contact an attorney early to ensure your claim is preserved.
How Much Does It Cost To Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring Venardi Zurada doesn’t add financial stress to an already difficult time. Our firm handles every personal injury claim on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing out of pocket, and our fee comes only if we recover compensation for you. If we do not recover compensation, you do not owe us a fee. It’s that simple.
Do I Need To Go to Court for My Case?
Most personal injury cases never see the inside of a courtroom. Our attorneys resolve many matters through skilled negotiation or mediation, saving clients time and stress. But if going to trial is the best way to protect your rights, you’ll have a team of seasoned litigators ready to advocate for you in court in case of significant injuries.
What if I Was Partially at Fault for the Accident?
California’s comparative negligence law means you can still recover compensation even if you share part of the fault. Your award may be reduced in proportion to your level of responsibility, but you don’t lose your right to pursue justice.
