One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesMalibu's stretch of Rt 1, better known as Pacific Coast Highway, carries a steady mix of commuters, tourists, and cyclists past Malibu Canyon Road and the coastline's blind curves. Los Angeles County records show 75 injury collisions here in the most recent final year, with 115 people hurt and one traffic death — and Sunday afternoons between 3 and 5 p.m. see a noticeable spike, likely tied to weekend beach traffic. When a crash happens on these roads, the physical damage is often just the start. Insurance adjusters move fast, sometimes calling before you've even seen a doctor, hoping to lock in a statement while you're still shaken. LawProactive doesn't practice law — we simply connect injured Malibu residents and visitors with an independent personal injury attorney who can look at what happened, explain your options, and help you avoid early missteps. There's no charge to get connected, and no obligation to move forward.
You generally have two years from the crash date to file a personal injury claim in California, but if a government entity like Caltrans is involved (say, road conditions on PCH), that window can shrink to as little as six months. An attorney can help you figure out which deadline applies before it passes.
California uses pure comparative fault, meaning even if you're partly blamed for the crash, you can still recover damages — just reduced by your share of fault. Insurers know this and often push drivers to admit more fault than is fair, so having someone review the facts on your side matters.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
California places no cap on non-economic damages like pain and suffering, but that doesn't mean insurers offer them freely. An independent attorney working on contingency — no fee unless you recover — can push back on lowball offers without costing you anything upfront.
