In California, you generally have two years to file a personal injury claim, with shorter deadlines for certain situations. If a government entity is involved, different rules may apply. Talking with an attorney early helps protect your rights and ensure timely action.
While you may still file a claim without a lawyer, having representation improves access to evidence, negotiations, and understanding of options. An experienced attorney helps you navigate insurance tactics and avoid costly missteps.
Move to a safe location, call emergency services if needed, exchange information, and document the scene. Seek medical evaluation even for minor symptoms. Do not sign settlement offers before understanding your rights.
