Oroville is a tight-knit Butte County community of about 16,260 people, but its roads still see their share of collisions. In the most recent reporting year, Oroville logged 102 injury collisions with 145 people hurt and 2 traffic deaths. Corridors like Oroville Dam Boulevard East, Oroville Dam Boulevard West, Olive Highway, and Feather River Boulevard carry a large share of the city's daily traffic, and reported crashes tend to cluster on Tuesday afternoons between 3 and 5 p.m. when commuters, students, and shoppers overlap.

Healthcare provider negligence cases
Most personal injury claims in California must be filed within two years of the accident, and claims against a government agency can require notice in as little as six months. Waiting too long can mean losing your right to recover anything at all.
California follows pure comparative fault, so even if you were partly responsible for what happened, you can still pursue compensation reduced by your share of fault. An attorney can help sort out how fault gets divided.
In ordinary injury cases, California doesn't limit the non-economic damages you can pursue, such as pain and suffering. That means your compensation isn't automatically capped just because your injuries are hard to put a price on.
Attorneys in our network work on contingency, so you don't pay out of pocket to have your case reviewed or handled. Fees only come out of an eventual settlement or award, not upfront.
