Questions
What should I do immediately after a car accident?
Seek medical attention, document the scene, and contact our firm before speaking to insurance companies to protect your legal rights.
How long do I have to file an injury claim in California?
California's statute of limitations is two years from the injury date, but consulting an attorney promptly ensures proper evidence preservation.
What if the accident was partially my fault?
California's pure comparative negligence law allows compensation even with partial fault. Your recovery amount may be reduced by your percentage of responsibility.
How are legal fees structured?
We work on a contingency fee basis - you pay nothing unless we win your case. If successful, fees come from the settlement amount.
Can I get compensation for future medical expenses?
Yes, our firm documents both current and projected future medical costs to ensure comprehensive compensation for long-term recovery needs.
What if the driver had no insurance?
We explore all options including your own uninsured motorist coverage and pursue maximum compensation through legal channels despite the other party's lack of insurance.
