You generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim in California. It is important to act promptly to collect evidence and preserve your rights. Time limits can vary in special circumstances, so speaking with a local attorney can help ensure you don’t miss deadlines.
After a crash, seek medical attention and call the police if needed. Do not admit fault, exchange information, or sign anything you don’t understand. Keep notes of conversations with insurers and document road conditions.
Yes, you can pursue compensation without an attorney, but having guidance can improve outcomes. A lawyer can help you present strong evidence and navigate complex rules.
Liability is determined by evaluating evidence such as police reports, witness statements, and medical records. In many cases, fault may be shared among multiple parties, which can affect damages.
You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering. Economic losses are supported by receipts and records, while non-economic damages depend on case details.
Fees for personal injury representation are typically contingent, meaning you pay no upfront costs and the attorney is paid from a portion of any settlement or verdict. Discuss the exact terms in a free consultation.
Comparative negligence reduces the amount of damages you can recover if you are partly at fault. California follows a pure comparative negligence rule, meaning your percentage of fault reduces your recovery.
Insurance delays can affect timelines, but an attorney can help manage the process, gather evidence, and keep your claim moving toward a fair settlement.
The timeline varies by case, but many motor vehicle claims resolve within months or longer if litigation is needed. A lawyer can provide a realistic estimate based on your situation.
