Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?
In most cases, you have 2 years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit in California. However, there are exceptions that can shorten or extend this deadline. Contact us as soon as possible to protect your rights.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
California follows "pure comparative negligence" rules. This means you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault, though your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
Should I talk to the insurance company?
Be careful. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts. Anything you say can be used against you. It's best to consult with an attorney before giving any recorded statements to insurance companies.
How much is my personal injury case worth?
Every case is unique. The value depends on factors like severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and available insurance coverage. Contact us for a case evaluation.
