First, seek medical care for any injuries and contact emergency services if needed. Call the police to file a report and obtain a copy. Document the scene if possible, exchange information with other drivers, and avoid giving statements until you have counsel.
Fault is determined by evaluating evidence, including police reports, surveillance, and witness statements. California follows pure comparative negligence; you can recover damages minus your percentage of fault.
Compensation may cover medical bills, therapy, lost wages, and property damage. Non economic damages like pain and suffering may also be available depending on the case.
