Question 1

How much does it cost to hire a car accident lawyer?

Accepted Answer

Nothing upfront. We work on contingency, which means you pay $0 unless we win your case. Our fee comes out of the settlement, so there's no financial risk to you. If we don't win, you don't pay.

Question 2

How much is my car accident case worth?

Accepted Answer

Every case is different. Settlement amounts depend on your injuries, medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and who was at fault. Our average car accident settlement is over $150,000, but we've recovered millions for serious injuries. Call for a free case evaluation.

Question 3

How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in California?

Accepted Answer

In California, you have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, waiting can hurt your case — evidence disappears, witnesses forget, and insurance companies get more aggressive. Contact us as soon as possible.

Question 4

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Accepted Answer

California uses comparative negligence, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault. Your settlement is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you're 20% at fault, you can still recover 80% of your damages.

Question 5

Should I talk to the other driver's insurance company?

Accepted Answer

No. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize your claim. They record calls, ask trick questions, and try to get you to admit fault. Let us handle all communication with insurance companies. Call us first — it's free.

Question 6

What should I do immediately after a car accident?

Accepted Answer

1) Call 911 and get medical attention. 2) Take photos of damage and injuries. 3) Get witness information. 4) Don't admit fault to anyone. 5) Don't sign anything from insurance. 6) Call a lawyer before talking to insurance companies.

Question 7

How long does a car accident case take to settle?

Accepted Answer

Most car accident cases settle in 6-12 months. However, serious injury cases requiring ongoing treatment may take longer. We never rush settlements — we wait until you've fully recovered to ensure you get maximum compensation.
