First, ensure safety and seek medical help for any injuries. Exchange information with others involved and contact the police if required. Then contact Ling Law Group to schedule a free consultation so we can review your options and begin collecting evidence for your claim.
California has specific time limits called statutes of limitations. For most personal injury claims, you must file within two years of the accident. Some exceptions apply, so speaking with an attorney promptly is important to protect your rights.
While you can negotiate on your own, an attorney can help protect your rights, prevent you from settling too soon, and ensure all damages are properly documented and pursued.
Damages can include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, and compensation for pain and suffering as appropriate to the case.
Comparative negligence reduces your recovery if you are partly at fault for the crash. Only a portion of damages corresponding to your share of fault may be recoverable.
Resolution time varies by case complexity, injuries, and insurer responsiveness. Some cases settle quickly, while others may take months or longer if litigation is involved.
Bring any police reports, driver exchange details, medical records, proof of treatment, and documentation of damages. A patient and clear history helps us assess the case efficiently.
Most motor vehicle crash cases settle before trial. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we proceed with litigation to protect your interests.
We offer free consultations and handle personal injury cases on a contingency basis. You pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you.
