Car Accidents in California

Sadly, it is typical for accidents to occur on California's roadways and multi-lane highways involving passenger vehicles, truck drivers, and other individuals. These accidents can lead to major damage to property, life-threatening injuries, and mental hardship for the victims and their families.

Fortunately, in California, victims of car accidents have the legal right to get compensation for medical expenses, lost earnings, pain and suffering, and other damages caused by negligent or irresponsible drivers. In California, the comparative negligence approach allows victims to receive compensation even if they are partially responsible for the incident. However, the amount of compensation they receive will be reduced in proportion to the degree of their responsibility.

It is important to take quick action after an accident for a number of reasons, including protecting your legal rights, documenting injuries, and preserving evidence. You need to take action as soon as possible since California has a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits.
