Glotzer & Leib, LLP

Getting hurt in an accident is one of the hardest things a person can go through. You're in pain, maybe out of work, and suddenly facing doctor bills, car repairs, and insurance companies that just want to pay you as little as possible. It’s a tough spot to be in.

But you don’t have to go through it alone. For people in California, Glotzer & Leib, LLP is a trusted name in personal injury law. They’ve been helping regular folks for over 20 years. And they’ve built a strong reputation for being caring, experienced, and always ready to fight for what’s fair.

In this article, we’ll walk you through everything you should know about this law firm—what kinds of cases they handle, what past clients say, how the process works, and what makes Glotzer & Leib different from the rest.

Meet the Team Behind Glotzer & Leib, LLP

The firm was founded by Joshua Glotzer, a personal injury lawyer with decades of experience, and later joined by Daniel Leib, who shares the same passion for justice and helping people.

Both attorneys have spent years handling injury cases—from simple car accidents to complicated wrongful death lawsuits. Over time, they’ve built a strong team that includes paralegals, case managers, and office staff who work together to support every client.

One of the first things people notice when working with them is how down-to-earth they are. You won’t feel like you’re just a number. You’ll feel like someone finally has your back.

It’s not just about the legal stuff. What really makes Glotzer & Leib, LLP stand out is how they care for their clients outside the courtroom, too. Here are a few ways they go the extra mile:

• They help you find a doctor, even if you don’t have insurance.

• They can assist with transportation to appointments.

• They deal with insurance companies, so you don’t have to.

• They keep you updated throughout your case—no guessing or wondering.

Your First Steps: What Happens After You Call

You don’t need to know anything about the law to get started. Just pick up the phone or fill out the contact form on their website.

Here’s what the process looks like:

Step 1: Free Consultation

Tell them what happened. They’ll ask you some questions and let you know if they think you have a case. You pay nothing for this meeting.

Step 2: Sign-Up and Investigation

If they take your case, you’ll sign a few forms so they can start gathering records and evidence—like the police report, photos, and your medical files.

Step 3: Doctor Referrals

They’ll help you get treatment right away, even if you don’t have money or health insurance. Many doctors they work with wait to get paid until the case is done.

Step 4: They Handle the Insurance Company

You won’t need to argue with insurance agents or worry about saying the wrong thing. Your lawyers take care of everything.

Step 5: Settlement or Trial

Most cases settle outside of court, but if the other side refuses to be fair, Glotzer & Leib is ready to take your case to trial.

Real Client Story: David’s Journey

David, a father of two from East LA, was driving home from work when a speeding driver ran a red light and hit him. He suffered a neck injury and couldn’t work for over a month.

“I didn’t know who to call,” David said. “I kept seeing ads for lawyers, but I didn’t know who to trust.”

He found Glotzer & Leib online and called for a free consultation. From day one, David said he felt cared for. “They called me back the same day, spoke to me with respect, and helped me see a doctor within a week.”

The firm worked hard behind the scenes to build his case. A few months later, David got a settlement that paid for his medical care, lost wages, and pain.

“I never felt alone during the process,” David said. “They were with me every step of the way.”

What Can You Be Compensated For?

If you’re injured because someone else was careless, you may be able to recover money for:

• Hospital bills

• Doctor visits and treatment

• Prescription medications

• Physical therapy

• Missed wages

• Car repairs or rental

• Pain and suffering

• Emotional distress

• Loss of future income

• Permanent injuries or disability

Glotzer & Leib works to make sure nothing is missed. They’ll help you figure out the full value of your case and fight for every dollar.

Common Questions Answered

What if I don’t have legal status?

You can still file a claim. California law protects everyone, no matter your immigration status. Your legal rights don’t disappear if you’re undocumented.

What if I was partly at fault?

Even if you share some of the blame, you might still be able to recover money. The team will explain how the rules apply to your case.

How long do I have to file a claim?

In California, most personal injury cases must be filed within two years of the accident. But it's best to talk to a lawyer right away to avoid missing deadlines.

Will I have to go to court?

Probably not. Most cases are settled before trial. But if going to court is the only way to get what's fair, Glotzer & Leib will be ready.

What if I was paid in cash or don’t have work records?
