California generally gives you two years from the date of an injury to file a claim, though claims against a government agency can require notice in as little as six months. Acting sooner protects your options and preserves evidence.
Under California's pure comparative fault rule, you can still recover damages even if you were partly responsible for what happened. Any compensation is simply reduced by your share of fault, not eliminated.
