California Has Strict Deadlines
California law gives you limited time to file a personal injury claim.
The statute of limitations for car accident cases is typically 2 years, and 6 months if a government entity is involved.
Keep in mind that evidence disappears and witnesses forget details.
The longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to prove your case and the more likely it is to lose compensation.
The sooner you call, the stronger your case becomes.
Common Questions About California Car Accident Cases
How much does it cost to hire your firm?
Nothing upfront. We work on contingency fee basis, meaning you only pay if we win your case. No win, no fee.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Generally two years in California, but some cases have shorter deadlines. Call us immediately to protect your rights.
What if the other driver doesn't have insurance?
We can still help. We’ll explore all options including your own uninsured motorist coverage and other potential sources of compensation.
How much is my case worth?
Every case is different. We’ll evaluate your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future damages to determine your case’s value.
Do I have to go to court?
Most cases settle out of court, but we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial if needed to get you maximum compensation. As mentioned earlier, unlike other law firms, our trial-ready attorneys do not hand off your case to another unvetted attorney or law firm. We got your back from start to victory.
