About Frank

My name is Frank Polek, and I am a San Diego attorney with extensive civil litigation trial experience. I serve clients in San Diego County and the surrounding area. I represent people in matters involving personal injury, employment cases, consumer disputes and business litigation. Before starting up my own practice, I was employed by a large international law firm, and now I use that extensive experience on behalf of my clients.

No one has the right to be careless and negligent and seriously injure or kill somebody. I’m committed to helping victims of serious injuries and the families of those who lost their loved ones as a result of the thoughtlessness and indifference of somebody else. Those injuries and deaths usually result from auto, motorcycle and truck accidents. They also involve products with defects involving design, the manufacturing of the product or warnings as to the product’s inherently dangerous condition. You have every right to be free from injury or being a member of a grieving family. Accident victims or their families need not have a penny with them for a consultation and case evaluation with me on any accident case. If I am retained, no legal fees are due until such time as I obtain compensation for you.

I also represent people who have been wrongfully terminated from their jobs, or who have been victims of discrimination and harassment based on age, sex, sexual preference, ethnicity and national origin, religion and disability. You have the right to go to work in an environment that is not hostile, and nobody in the workplace around you, including third parties that come onto the premises, has the right to interfere with the progress of your career.

Whether you’re the victim of the negligence of another person or entity, or you have been wrongfully terminated from your job, or if you are suffering from a harassment at work, I can invoke and protect your rights, and take aggressive legal action on your behalf.

Please contact me for an initial consultation.
