Suffering a personal injury can disrupt every aspect of your life.

Our Approach to Personal Injury Claims in California

At our firm, we handle every stage of the claims process, allowing clients to focus on their recovery. This includes:

  • Conducting a detailed investigation of the accident or incident
  • Collecting and reviewing medical records, witness statements, expert reports, and other detailed evidence required to build a strong claim
  • Communicating with insurance companies to negotiate fair settlements; this levels the playing field, giving you a voice against significant corporate interests
  • Filing lawsuits when necessary
  • Representing you in court if a trial becomes necessary

By managing the process from start to finish, we minimize your stress, enabling you to focus on your physical recovery. At the same time, we aggressively pursue the maximum recovery available under California law.

What Is Personal Injury Law?

Personal injury law allows victims of accidents or intentional wrongdoings to recover damages from the responsible parties. In California, if you can prove another party’s negligence caused your injury, you may be entitled to financial compensation for your losses.

Key Elements of a Personal Injury Claim

  • Duty of care: The responsible party owed you a duty to act reasonably (for example, drivers must drive safely).
  • Breach of duty: The responsible party failed to meet this duty (for example,  driving recklessly or ignoring safety rules).
  • Causation: The breach of duty directly caused your injuries.
  • Damages: You suffered actual losses, physical, financial, or emotional, because of the injury.

Proving each element requires clear evidence, meticulous preparation, and a thorough understanding of the law. Working with an experienced attorney can strengthen your claim and safeguard your rights throughout the process. Legal representation enables every detail, from gathering evidence to calculating damages, to be thoroughly and professionally addressed.

Statute of Limitations in California

In California, most personal injury lawsuits must be filed within two yearsof the date of the accident or the date of the injury. Missing this deadline generally means forfeiting your right to compensation. Certain exceptions exist, such as injuries to minors or cases against government entities, which may have shorter or different deadlines. Consulting an attorney promptly helps you meet all legal requirements and deadlines.

  • Can I Still Recover Damages If I Was Partially at Fault?

  • What If the Other Driver Is Uninsured?

    If the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, you may still have options for compensation through your own insurance policy. A Sacramento motorcycle accident lawyer can help you explore these options.
