You may recover medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, and compensation for pain and suffering. The exact amount depends on injury severity, future care needs, and insurance coverage.
In California, different deadlines apply depending on the claim type. Acting promptly helps protect your rights. Consult with a local attorney to determine the specific deadlines for your situation.
