Most personal injury firms, including ours, work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we recover compensation. This approach aligns our interests with yours, and we discuss fees clearly from the start.
Timeline varies by complexity, injuries, and insurer, but many cases settle within several months to a couple of years. We prioritize timely communication and manage expectations.
Bring along photos from the scene, the police report, medical records, a list of injuries, and insurance information. If possible, also bring any notes about what happened and contact details for witnesses.
Liability often lies with another driver, but it can involve multiple parties such as manufacturers or government entities if road conditions contributed. We assess all potential sources of responsibility to pursue full and fair compensation.
Compensation can include medical bills, lost wages, rehabilitation costs, property damage, and non economic damages like pain and suffering. The amount depends on injuries, impact on life, and insurance policy limits.
Many cases settle before trial, but some require court action to reach full compensation. We prepare every case for trial if necessary to protect your rights.
Our team reviews police reports, witness statements, and evidence to determine negligence and liability. California uses pure comparative negligence, so your recovery may be reduced by your own fault percentage.

Under California law, you can recover damages even if you are partly at fault. Your share of liability will reduce the amount you can recover, so a clear liability case helps.
Most lawyers work on a contingency basis, taking a percentage of any recovery. If there is no recovery, you typically owe nothing, and the contract explains the fee structure.
