In many cases, having a lawyer helps ensure your rights are protected and you receive full compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. A lawyer can also manage deadlines and negotiations with insurers to avoid common pitfalls.
California generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim, but some cases have shorter or longer deadlines. It is important to consult quickly to preserve options and build the strongest possible claim.
Damages can include medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and non-economic losses such as pain and suffering. In some cases, future medical costs and long-term care are recoverable.
Bring any incident reports, photos, medical records, bills, insurance communications, and a list of witnesses or contacts who observed what happened.
Many personal injury cases settle before trial, but some proceed to court if a fair settlement cannot be reached. Our firm prepares every case for trial to protect your interests.
Fees vary by case and region, but a typical arrangement is a percentage of the recovery. Ask about costs up front during your free consultation.
If the at-fault driver lacks insurance, you may still pursue compensation from your own insurer or other liable parties. An attorney can guide you through options.
