Glossary of terms to help you understand construction accident claims and related processes.
Liability refers to legal responsibility for harm caused by another party’s actions or omissions.
California follows a pure comparative fault system; your recovery may be reduced by your percentage of responsibility for the accident.

Medical liens and settlement negotiations can affect the timing and amount of your recovery.
You may have options such as workers’ compensation or third-party claims. We review the facts to determine the best path for recovery.
