If you’ve been harmed by a medication or medical device you trusted, you’re facing more than a health crisis. You’re dealing with questions no one should have to answer alone: What happened? Who’s responsible? What comes next?
Tim West has spent 24 years in courtrooms across the country. The first 17 were on the defense side, representing Fortune 100 corporations. He knows how these cases are built, how they’re defended, and where the pressure points are.
Now he uses that knowledge to fight for people on the other side of the table. People whose lives have been upended by defective drugs and medical devices. People who deserve answers, accountability, and fair compensation.
Tim opened DV Injury Law West in San Diego in November 2024 with a clear purpose: to give clients the kind of personal attention that gets lost at larger firms. Every client works with a dedicated paralegal who knows their case and answers their calls directly. No call centers. No runaround. Just real people who understand what you’re going through.
Tim approaches every case as if it will go to trial, positioning clients for maximum value when settlement time comes. Rather than chasing quick payouts, his firm invests in detailed documentation from day one. That legwork upfront means each client’s case reflects their unique medical history, treatment journey, and injury impact.
What sets his firm apart is simple: every client gets a dedicated paralegal who knows their case inside and out. You’re not a case number calling a general intake line. You get a direct phone number to someone invested in your individual situation. That matters, especially when you’re navigating a serious health diagnosis while managing a legal claim.
