King City sits along Highway 101 in southern Monterey County, and local streets like San Antonio Drive, S 1st Street, Broadway Street, and Ellis Street see their share of everyday traffic activity. Public records show 21 injury collisions in the most recent full year, leaving 27 people hurt — a reminder that even a small farming town isn't immune to serious wrecks.

California generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim, though claims against a government agency can require notice in as little as six months. Waiting too long can close the door on your case entirely.
Under California's pure comparative fault rule, you can still recover damages even if you were partly responsible for the accident. Your compensation is simply reduced by your percentage of fault, not eliminated.
California places no cap on non-economic damages like pain, suffering, or emotional distress in most ordinary injury cases. An attorney can help make sure that side of your claim isn't overlooked.
Attorneys in our network work on contingency, meaning they only get paid if you recover compensation. There's no retainer and no hourly bill hanging over your head while you heal.
