A lawyer can help protect your rights, review evidence, and handle communications with insurers. They can explain options for compensation, help negotiate a fair settlement, and guide you through California deadlines.
In California, most personal injury cases have a two year statute of limitations, but there are exceptions. Certain claims may have shorter or longer deadlines, so consult promptly.
You may recover medical costs, lost wages, rehabilitation, and non economic damages. You may also be eligible for future care costs and compensation for pain and suffering.
Your health coverage may pay initially; a settlement or verdict can reimburse you. If fault is clear, the at fault party’s insurer may cover medical expenses and related costs.
Many bicycle crash claims settle before trial, but some cases go to court if a fair agreement cannot be reached. We prepare for all outcomes.
Fault is decided through an investigation of police reports, scene photos, witness statements, and medical records. Local rules and contributory fault rules may apply.
Bring details of the incident, photos or video, police report, medical records, and any correspondence with insurers. A list of injuries and expenses also helps.
Many personal injury firms work on a contingency basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win. Fees and arrangements are discussed during the free consultation.
California follows comparative fault rules, so your recovery may be reduced by your share of responsibility. Our team can assess each party’s role and pursue available remedies.
