One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesMonterey draws heavy foot traffic year-round, from Fisherman's Wharf to the shops along Lighthouse Avenue and the hotels near Del Monte Avenue, and with that traffic comes uneven walkways, wet floors, poor lighting, and cracked pavement that property owners are supposed to catch. When a business or landlord doesn't, someone gets hurt. California law generally requires an injured person to show the property owner knew, or reasonably should have known, about the hazard and didn't fix it or warn people. That's why what you do in the hours and days after a fall matters: photos of the exact spot, names of witnesses, and a request that any surveillance footage be preserved before it's routinely deleted. LawProactive doesn't practice law ourselves. We simply connect you with an independent Monterey-area attorney who can evaluate what happened, gather the evidence, and explain your options at no upfront cost.
California requires showing the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard before your fall. An attorney knows how to dig up maintenance logs, prior complaints, and inspection records that establish that timeline.
Many Monterey businesses overwrite surveillance footage within days or weeks. Getting a preservation request out quickly can be the difference between having proof and having none.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
California uses pure comparative fault, meaning you can still recover even if you're partly at fault, though your share reduces the amount. An attorney will work to keep the blame focused on the property owner's failures, not yours.
