As the hub of the Central Valley, Fresno sees heavy movement of people and freight along SR-99 and SR-41 and on wide surface arterials like Blackstone and Shaw Avenues. Public records logged more than 1,600 injury collisions in the city in 2025, leaving over 2,100 people hurt, with reported crashes tending to peak on Friday evenings. High-speed rural highways at the city's edges add their own risk, and agricultural and warehouse work sends many residents to the emergency room each year. Whatever the cause, California law gives injured people rights and a limited time to assert them. LawProactive is a free service that connects injured residents of Fresno with an independent personal injury attorney who understands how Fresno County claims and courts work. We are not a law firm; we match you with counsel and stay out of your way. You pay no fee unless your case recovers compensation.
California generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file. On high-speed corridors like SR-99, evidence fades fast, so early action strengthens a claim.
