In the moments after a crash, call 911, exchange information, and get a police report. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine, as some injuries may appear later. Document the scene with photos and witness contacts, and avoid signing anything until you have guidance from a lawyer.
Fault in California is determined by evidence of negligence or wrongdoing by another party. Comparative negligence rules may affect recovery, so documenting liability is essential. An attorney helps gather witness statements, traffic reports, and expert input to establish fault.
You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering. Compensation can also cover future medical needs and diminished earning capacity depending on the case.
California generally allows two years to file a personal injury claim, with shorter deadlines in some circumstances. Missing deadlines can bar your right to sue, so timely legal counsel is important.
A lawyer helps maximize recovery, manage paperwork, and negotiate with insurers. You can still participate in decisions, but expert guidance improves your chances of a favorable outcome.
Medical expenses include current and future treatment costs, therapy, and rehabilitation. Keep all bills and records, and be prepared for independent medical evaluations if insurers request them.
Many motorcycle accident cases settle, but some require litigation to achieve fair compensation. An attorney will guide you through each path and help decide what is best for your situation.
