How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?
California generally allows two years from the date of injury to file most personal injury claims (CCP § 335.1). Claims against government entities have a six-month deadline. Contact a car accident attorney, truck accident lawyer, or motorcycle accident attorney immediately after an injury.
What is my personal injury case worth?
Case value depends on the severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term impact. Our firm has recovered over $100 million for clients across auto accidents, slip and fall claims, and dog bite injuries. Contact us for a free case evaluation.
Can I recover compensation if I was partially at fault?
Yes. California follows pure comparative negligence, so you can still recover compensation reduced by your percentage of fault — a rule that applies to auto and rideshare accidents, motorcycle and bicycle crashes, and premises liability cases.
Should I accept the insurance company's first offer?
No. First offers are typically far below what a case is worth. Speak with an experienced San Diego personal injury attorney before signing anything from an insurance company, especially in truck accident or wrongful death claims where damages are substantial.
Who can file a wrongful death lawsuit in California?
Surviving spouses, domestic partners, children, and other close family members entitled by intestate succession may file a wrongful death claim in California. Our attorneys also handle related dangerous drug and catastrophic injury cases.
