In California, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. Certain factors can shorten or extend this period, so acting promptly helps protect your rights. If you miss the deadline, you may lose your ability to recover compensation.
Fault is determined through evidence such as police reports, witness statements, and applicable traffic laws. California follows a comparative negligence rule, so you can still recover damages if you are partly at fault, though your award may be reduced.
You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering. The exact amount depends on injury severity, treatment costs, and how long you are unable to work. An attorney helps quantify and pursue full compensation.
You can file a claim without a lawyer, but legal guidance often leads to better outcomes. An attorney can navigate insurance rules, gather evidence, and advocate for fair settlements or court relief.
Many personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and only after you recover. We discuss fees during your initial consult and ensure there are no hidden costs.
Bring police reports, medical records, photos from the scene, contact information for witnesses, and details of the crash. Also bring your insurance information and a list of medical providers you have seen.
Case timelines vary based on case complexity, injuries, and conduct of negotiations. Many cases settle within months, while others may take longer if court action is required.
You may be asked to testify if a settlement cannot be reached. We prepare you for deposition and, if needed, trial, to help you present your side clearly and confidently.
It is possible to handle a claim without an attorney, but you may receive less and risk missing deadlines. Having counsel helps protect rights and improve overall outcomes.
