One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesLong Beach moves a lot of traffic for a city of 474,140 people. Port trucks share Pacific Coast Highway with commuters, the I-405 carries drivers between Orange County and the Westside, and Atlantic Avenue and Long Beach Boulevard run the length of the city from the shoreline to the north side. In 2025, the most recent final crash year, Long Beach recorded 2,135 injury collisions, 3,123 people injured and 19 traffic deaths. Reported crashes here tend to cluster on Fridays between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m., when the workweek lets out. If one of those collisions involved you, the days that follow can feel disorganized. Medical bills arrive before the insurance adjuster calls back, and the adjuster's questions may sound friendlier than they are. LawProactive is a free service, not a law firm. We connect you with an independent personal injury attorney who handles Long Beach car accident claims on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery. You describe what happened, and an attorney explains where your claim stands under California law.
You generally have two years to file a car accident injury claim, but if a City of Long Beach vehicle, a county truck or a Caltrans road condition is involved, the window to give notice can shrink to six months. An attorney can sort out which deadline applies before it slips by.
California follows pure comparative fault, so a driver who was, say, 30 percent responsible can still pursue the other 70 percent. There is also no statutory cap on non-economic damages like pain and lost enjoyment of life in an ordinary car accident case.
