In California, many personal injury cases are handled on a contingency basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and your attorney is paid from any recovery. We discuss fees during your free, no obligation initial consultation. If there is no recovery, there is no fee.
California generally allows two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury claim. Some cases have different deadlines, so it is important to consult early.
You may recover medical expenses, wage loss, property damage, and pain and suffering. In some cases, future medical care and loss of earning capacity may also be recoverable.
Medical bills are typically covered by the at fault party or their insurer. Attorneys work to secure a fair settlement that accounts for current and future medical needs.
Many bicycle crash cases are resolved through settlement, but some cases go to trial if a fair offer cannot be reached. We prepare for both outcomes.
Having witnesses at the scene can help establish what happened and support liability. We guide you on what information to collect.
Insurance settlements involve negotiations with the at fault party and their insurer. We advocate for documentation of damages and medical needs to support a fair offer.
If the other driver is uninsured or underinsured, we explore options for compensation from your own policy or from the at fault party if possible. We review coverage and pursue practical avenues for recovery.
Case durations vary, but many bicycle accident claims resolve within months with a favorable settlement. Some cases require more time for litigation to achieve the best possible outcome.
