Recent Verdicts & Settlements
Past results don't guarantee future outcomes — but they demonstrate our commitment to maximum recovery.
Why Apex
After 18 years of litigation, Apex has a reputation California insurers recognize. That reputation gets results at the negotiating table — before a single filing deadline passes.
Accidents don't happen on a schedule. Neither do we. Call or text any time — an Apex team member responds within minutes.
We prepare every case as if it's going to trial. Insurance companies know we're not afraid of a courtroom — and that changes how they negotiate.
We don't close a case until we've identified every category of damages: medical, future care, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
Contingency fee only. You pay nothing unless we win. Period. No hourly charges, no retainers, no billing surprises.

Before founding Apex, Marcus spent six years as an insurance defense attorney — learning exactly how insurers evaluate claims, minimize payouts, and delay settlements. In 2007, he switched sides. He has spent the 18 years since using that knowledge to hold insurance companies accountable for catastrophically injured Californians.
He has tried over 60 cases to verdict, recovered eight-figure settlements, and argued successfully before the California Court of Appeal. He is Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law and recognized annually by Super Lawyers.
“Insurance adjusters aren't looking out for you. They have a job: close your claim for as little as possible. My job is to make sure that doesn't happen.”
What We Handle
From freeway collisions to rear-end impacts — we investigate every angle: police reports, black box data, surveillance footage, and expert reconstruction to build the strongest possible case.
Start your caseMotorcyclists face unique bias from adjusters and juries. Our attorneys have recovered millions for riders who were blamed by the other driver's insurance company.
Start your caseProperty owners and businesses have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions. When they fail and you're injured, we hold them fully accountable — from investigation through trial.
Start your caseWhen negligence takes a family member, we pursue every dollar available under California law: medical expenses, funeral costs, loss of income, and the full measure of your loss.
Start your caseTraumatic brain injury, spinal cord damage, and amputations require lifetime care projections, vocational experts, and life-care planners. We bring them all to the table.
Start your caseUber, Lyft, and transit accidents involve multiple insurance layers. We cut through the complexity and recover from every available policy.

Don't wait
Surveillance footage gets deleted. Witnesses forget. Statute of limitations runs. Every day you wait makes your case harder to win.
Get My Free Case ReviewClient Results
After my accident the other driver's insurance offered me $25,000. Apex took the case and we settled for $1.45 million. Marcus and his team fought for over a year and never once pressured me to settle early.

Construction site fall, Los Angeles
I called four firms before Apex. They were the only ones who returned my call the same day, met with me that week, and actually explained what my case was worth. The settlement was more than I ever expected.
Sofia M.
Car accident, San Diego
The insurance company said my injury was pre-existing. Apex brought in a medical expert who proved it wasn't, and we went from a denied claim to a $620,000 settlement. I owe everything to this team.

Slip and fall, grocery store, Riverside
We lost our son to a drunk driver. Apex handled everything so we could grieve without worrying about legal deadlines. The wrongful death settlement helped us provide for our grandchildren the way he would have wanted.

Know Your Rights
Adjusters are trained to close files fast and for less than they're worth. Understanding their playbook — early recorded statements, quick-settlement tactics, and pre-existing condition arguments — is the first step to protecting your claim.
The statute of limitations in California gives you two years for most injury cases — but evidence disappears faster than that. Surveillance footage is overwritten. Witnesses' memories fade. Acting early preserves every advantage.
California's pure comparative negligence rule means you can still recover damages even if you were 40% at fault. Insurers know this — and they will try to inflate your percentage of fault to reduce your payout. Here is how experienced PI counsel fights back.
Free consultation. No obligation. We only get paid when we win your case.
