California uses comparative negligence to apportion fault. We assess liability, gather evidence, and pursue the compensation you deserve.
While you can file a claim on your own, having a lawyer helps navigate insurance tactics, deadlines, and complex legal questions.
Compensation may include medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and non economic damages for pain and suffering.
California generally gives two years to file a personal injury lawsuit, but some cases have different timelines; we review your timeline at consult.
If the at fault driver lacks insurance, we explore options such as uninsured motorist coverage and other avenues to recover losses.
Medical bills are typically covered as part of damages; we organize invoices, records, and proofs of treatment.
Bring identification, injury records, police report, insurance information, and any notes about the crash to the consultation.
Partial fault does not bar recovery; your share of responsibility may reduce damages, but you can still pursue compensation.
