The reason you need a Car Accident Lawyer NOW

You need to be mindful of the statute of limitations when filing a car accident claim. If you don’t act in a timely matter, not only will your right to file a suit be gone, but crucial evidence may also be lost. It is greatly advised that you turn to a personal injury lawyer ASAP to avoid this.

Time is of the essence.

Under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 335.1, the statute of limitations for car accidents is two years. Other strict time limits may attach depending on the status of the defendant such as a public entity, in which case there is an 180-day claim requirement.

How to Get Compensation for Car Accidents

How Much Is My Car Accident Case Worth?

The value of a car accident case can vary greatly, but generally, value is determined by

  • Significance of the damage to property; and
  • The extent of injuries sustained by victims.

We encourage you to contact our firm for a free case evaluation and to get a real idea of what your case is worth.

What Types of Damages Can I Recover?

Economic Damages are types of damages that have an associated direct cost, such as medical bills, lost income, loss of future earning capacity, future medical and rehabilitation expenses and the like.
Non-Economic Damages refer to the types of damages that don’t have a direct cost associated with them. Some examples include emotional distress, pain and suffering, mental anguish and loss of consortium or companionship.  

Car Insurance Coverage in Sacramento


What Are the Different Types of Car Insurance Coverage?

  • Collision Coverage – Helps pay replacement costs or vehicle repair after an accident.
  • Comprehensive Coverage – Protects you against vehicle damages caused by falling objects, theft, natural disasters, vandalism, fire, hail, flood, and animal damage.
  • Liability Coverage – Subdivided into two types of coverage – property damage and bodily injury liability – liability coverage covers the damages that other people sustain in an accident that’s your fault.
  • Medical Payments –  This pays medical expenses for you and any passengers in your vehicle who are injured in an accident.  It is typically referred to as “Med Pay.”
  • Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage – Usually abbreviated as UM/UIM, this type of coverage will pay for your medical expenses if you are hit by someone who has an insufficient car insurance policy or none at all. Additionally, in most cases, this will cover you in the case of a hit-and-run accident.

 How to Deal with Car Insurance Claims Adjusters

The insurance adjuster’s job is to minimize the money that his or her company will pay; their job is to give you, the claimant, as little money as possible. Don’t  gamble with your personal injury claim. Have one of our trusted attorneys step into your insurance claim and communicate with the adjuster in your stead. This way, your right to full and fair compensation will be protected.
