One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesRancho Cordova is a city of roughly 71,000 people spread across Sacramento County, with much of its daily traffic flowing through the shopping centers, offices, and apartment complexes along Sunrise Boulevard, Zinfandel Drive, Coloma Road, and Folsom Boulevard. Those same properties are where most falls happen: a spill nobody mopped, a parking lot pothole, an unlit stairwell, a loose handrail. Under California law, a fall alone does not create a claim. You generally have to show the property owner knew about the hazard, or reasonably should have known, and did nothing to fix it or warn you. That element, called notice, is where these cases are won or lost, and it depends heavily on what gets documented in the first few days. Photos, incident reports, witness names, and especially surveillance footage matter enormously, because video is routinely overwritten. The general deadline to file is two years, but if a public entity owns the property, the window can be far shorter. LawProactive is a free service, not a law firm; we connect you with an independent attorney who works on contingency.
California asks whether the owner knew or should have known about the hazard. The attorneys in our network know how to look for cleaning logs, prior complaints, and maintenance records that answer that question.
Stores, apartment complexes, and parking lots often keep footage for only days. Getting an attorney involved quickly means a preservation request can go out before the recording disappears.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
You typically have two years to file, but a claim against a public entity can carry a much shorter deadline. California's pure comparative fault rule also means you may still recover even if you were partly responsible, with your share reduced accordingly.
