The Clendenin Firm is a personal injury law firm founded by Matthew Clendenin, an avid cyclist and member of the San Diego Bicycle Club (San Diego’s oldest and largest cycling club). The firm’s mission is to give everybody access to the justice system and make communities safer by holding insurance companies accountable, operating with the motto “Here to get you through it” and philosophy of “Get help. Get Better. Get justice.” The practice handles car crash cases (with CHP reporting over 254,000 people injured on California roads every year), premises liability (California’s Department of Industrial Relations revealed over 20% of workplace injuries in 2017 occurred due to trips, slips, and falls), dog bite cases (50% of all dog bite victims are children, with California law holding dog owners responsible even without past incidents), wrongful death, motorcycle injuries (National Highway Traffic Safety Association reported 72 out of every 100,000 motorcycles involved in fatal crashes versus 13 out of every 100,000 cars), and bicycle injuries (California has 4th highest bicycle injury per capita in U.S. with California Department of Public Health reporting 89% of bicycle injuries involve cars).
The Clendenin Firm distinguishes itself by providing direct attorney contact when clients reach out with questions, believing initial contact is the most important time for immediate answers without automated phone systems or giving basic information repeatedly to assistants. The firm offers free, no-obligation consultations connecting clients with an attorney right away, striving through verdict research, experience, and comprehensive risk-analysis to give accurate estimates of case potential value as soon as possible, allowing clients to make confident decisions in litigation. The practice exists for two main reasons: to compensate victims (believing in personal responsibility where wrongdoers must pay for what’s broken, requiring lawsuits when insurance companies don’t play fair) and deterrence (making sure incidents never happen again, with many clients saying “I just don’t want this to happen to anybody else”). Attorney Clendenin helps injured victims get justice by holding insurance companies accountable, understanding costs both tangible and intangible that accidents impose upon individuals and families, providing reliable service with commitment to client success.
