After a crash, seek medical care, call 911, and exchange information with drivers and witnesses. Do not admit fault at the scene; contact an attorney to review your case and timing.
California uses pure comparative negligence, meaning you can recover compensation reduced by your share of fault. We help you gather evidence to support liability and explain the impact of fault on damages.
Damages include medical bills, rehab, lost wages, and costs to return to daily activities. Non-economic losses such as pain and suffering may also be claimed with proper documentation.
Most pedestrian cases settle out of court to save time and expense. A minority proceed to trial when liability or damages are in dispute.
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning no upfront payment. If you win, a portion of the recovery is paid to cover legal fees; if not, you typically owe nothing.
Attorney fees are commonly a percentage of the recovery and may vary by case complexity. Ask for a written fee agreement that explains costs and any costs you may owe regardless of outcome.
If the other driver is uninsured, options may include uninsured motorist coverage or your own policy, along with government or special claims. We review all avenues to pursue compensation for medical bills and losses.
