Healthcare provider negligence cases
California generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim, but that window shrinks to as little as six months if a government entity was involved. Waiting too long can mean losing your right to recover anything at all.
California follows pure comparative fault, meaning even if you were partly responsible for what happened, you can still pursue compensation. Your recovery is simply reduced by your share of fault, not eliminated.
Unlike some states, California places no cap on non-economic damages like pain and suffering in ordinary injury cases. That means your compensation isn't artificially limited just because your losses go beyond medical bills.
Attorneys in our network work on contingency, so there's no upfront fee to hire one. They only get paid if your case results in a settlement or verdict in your favor.
