One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesColfax sits along a stretch of I-80 that carries steady mountain-bound traffic through town, and local roads like S Auburn Street and N Main Street see their share of collisions too. Recent public records show 7 injury collisions and 12 people hurt in a single year here, with three lives lost — numbers that remind us how quickly an ordinary Tuesday afternoon drive can change. If you were injured, the moments after matter: photos, witness names, medical care, and caution about what you say to any insurance adjuster. LawProactive doesn't practice law — we're a free service that connects injured Colfax residents and visitors with an independent personal injury attorney who can evaluate what happened and explain your options. There's no obligation to move forward, and no upfront cost to talk with someone who understands how California's rules apply to a case like yours.
You generally have two years from the crash to file a claim, but that window can shrink to as little as six months if a government entity — like a road authority on I-80 — may share fault. An attorney can help you figure out which deadline applies before it's too late.
California uses pure comparative fault, meaning any percentage of blame assigned to you can reduce your compensation. An early recorded statement to the other driver's insurer can be used to inflate your share of fault, so it's worth pausing before you speak.
