First, seek medical attention and report the crash to the police, then document the scene. A lawyer can help you understand your options and begin the process of building a claim.
Fault is determined by reviewing police reports, witness statements, and the crash circumstances. California uses comparative negligence rules, so you may still recover if you share some fault, with the award reduced accordingly.
Possible recoveries include medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering. The amount depends on injury severity and the impact on daily life.
Even for minor injuries, a lawyer can help protect your rights, manage communications with insurers, and ensure you don’t settle for less than you deserve. They can help document ongoing treatment and future costs as your case develops.
