You may recover medical expenses, wage loss, rehabilitation costs, and pain and suffering. If appropriate, future medical care and loss of earning capacity may also be included.

In California, you typically have two years to file a personal injury claim, but there are exceptions depending on the case. It is important to consult an attorney promptly to protect your rights.
Medical bills and records are central to calculating a fair settlement. Documentation supports the value of your injuries and helps prevent undervaluing your claim.
Most personal injury claims are handled on a contingency basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and lawyers receive a percentage of any recovery. You typically don’t owe costs if there is no result.
Cases vary, but many motorcycle crash claims reach a resolution within months to a few years, depending on the complexity and court schedule.
It is possible to handle a claim yourself, but a dedicated attorney can help you avoid missteps, meet deadlines, and pursue stronger results.
If the other driver lacks insurance, you may pursue uninsured motorist coverage or other avenues for compensation through your own policy or vehicle-injury protection options.
