His work focuses exclusively on representing plaintiffs in personal injury matters involving catastrophic injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and wrongful death.
Motor vehicle accidents are among the most common causes of serious injuries in California, and car accident litigation is a core focus of Aaron Hicks’ practice. He represents drivers, passengers, pedestrians, and cyclists who have been harmed due to negligent or reckless driving.
