A personal injury claim seeks compensation for injury‑related losses, including medical expenses, income, and pain and suffering caused by another’s negligence.
The core elements are duty, breach, causation, and damages, followed by gathering evidence, sending demand letters, negotiating settlements, and, if necessary, pursuing a civil case.

In California, you generally have two years to file a personal injury lawsuit, though exceptions apply for certain cases and circumstances. It’s important to start your claim promptly to preserve evidence and avoid unnecessary delays.
Compensation can cover medical expenses, lost wages, rehabilitation costs, and pain and suffering. The amount depends on injuries, impact on daily life, and policy limits.
Having a lawyer can simplify complex negotiations, ensure accurate valuation of damages, and help navigate deadlines. An attorney can also handle communications with insurers on your behalf.
Bring any relevant documents, such as police reports, medical records, photos, and witness information, to your first meeting.
Fault is often determined by examining police reports, eyewitness testimony, and evidence of negligence. In many cases, more than one party may share fault.
A settlement is an agreement to resolve a claim without going to trial, typically involving a negotiated payment in exchange for dropping the lawsuit or claims.
Most cases settle before trial, but some proceed to court if a fair offer cannot be reached. Your attorney will guide you through each step.
Attorney fees vary, but many personal injury lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning you pay no attorney fees unless you recover compensation.
Pre-existing conditions can affect damages calculations, but you may still recover if the injury worsened, accelerated, or aggravated a prior condition.
