Questions
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
California's statute of limitations is two years from the accident date. Contact us immediately to preserve evidence and meet deadlines.
What if the insurance company offers a settlement?
Do not accept offers without legal review. We negotiate fair compensation covering future medical needs and lost income.
How are attorney fees structured?
We work on contingency fees - you pay nothing unless we win your case.
What if I was partially at fault?
California's comparative fault law allows recovery even with partial responsibility. We minimize fault attribution to maximize compensation.
Can I sue for emotional distress?
Yes. Non-economic damages include mental anguish and loss of enjoyment of life.
