Common questions

Questions about injury claims in California

Still wondering about something? Call (916) 555-0148 and ask.

How much does it cost to hire you?

Nothing up front. We work on contingency, so our fee is a percentage of what we recover. If there’s no recovery, there’s no fee. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.

How long do I have to file a claim?

Most California injury claims must be filed within two years, and claims involving a city, county or state agency can have a six-month deadline. You can check yours with the deadline tool on our home page.

What if the accident was partly my fault?

You may still recover money. California uses comparative fault, which reduces a recovery by your share of the blame rather than barring it. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

What is my case worth?

Aenean eu leo quam. Pellentesque ornare sem lacinia quam venenatis vestibulum. Integer posuere erat a ante venenatis dapibus posuere velit aliquet.

Will my case go to trial?

Most claims settle, but we prepare every case as if it won’t. Nulla vitae elit libero, a pharetra augue. Curabitur blandit tempus porttitor.
