Piedmont is a small, tree-lined city tucked inside Alameda County, but its streets aren't immune to collisions. Public records show 12 injury collisions in the most recent final crash year, leaving 13 people hurt, with no traffic deaths recorded. Corridors like Grand Avenue, Oakland Avenue, Highland Avenue, and the 100 block of Hampton Road show up most often in collision counts, and reports tend to cluster on Wednesdays between midnight and 2 a.m. Whether you were walking near Highland Avenue, driving through the Grand Avenue corridor, or caught in a late-night crash near Hampton Road, the aftermath is the same: pain, missed work, and a stack of questions about what happens next.

California generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file a claim, but that window shrinks to as little as six months if a government entity is involved. Waiting too long can cost you the right to recover anything at all.
California follows pure comparative fault, meaning your compensation is reduced by your share of blame, not eliminated. Even if you think you contributed to the crash, you may still have a valid claim.
In ordinary injury cases, California doesn't limit non-economic damages like pain, suffering, or loss of enjoyment of life. An attorney can help evaluate what your experience is worth.
Attorneys in our network work on contingency, meaning legal fees only come out of a settlement or verdict. If there's no recovery, you owe no attorney fees.
