Understanding Personal Injury Law in California

California's personal injury laws are designed to protect individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence of others. These laws cover a wide range of scenarios, from car and motorcycle accidents to slips and falls and instances of medical malpractice. Understanding these laws can significantly impact how a personal injury claim is handled.

In California, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is typically two years from the date of the injury. This means that individuals have two years to file a lawsuit. However, there are exceptions to this rule, such as when the injury is not immediately discovered. In such cases, the statute of limitations may begin at the time the injury is discovered or reasonably should have been discovered. 

It's important to consult with a knowledgeable attorney to ensure compliance with these legal requirements. Our team can provide the guidance needed to navigate this complex legal landscape effectively.

What Should I Do Immediately After an Accident?

Immediately following an accident, it’s important to ensure your safety and that of others involved. First, seek medical attention even if you believe you haven’t been seriously hurt. Some injuries are not immediately apparent. Document the scene if possible, taking photos and gathering witness contact details. Notify law enforcement and cooperate fully during the process. It's also essential to report the accident to your insurance company but refrain from providing detailed statements without first consulting a lawyer. This can help prevent misinterpretation or misuse of information. Lastly, reach out to a personal injury attorney to discuss your situation and explore your options.
