Sand City is a small coastal community in Monterey County, with SR-1 running directly through town alongside California Avenue and the SR-1 southbound connector β the roads that see the most reported traffic activity here. The most recent final public-record crash data for Sand City shows no reported injury collisions, injuries, or traffic deaths for that year, which reflects the city's small population and low traffic volume rather than any indication about future safety. Still, accidents happen β on these corridors, in parking areas along Highway 1, or elsewhere in town β and when they do, sorting out medical bills, missed work, and insurance calls can feel overwhelming.

Healthcare provider negligence cases
California generally gives you two years from the date of an injury to file a claim, but if a government entity (like a city road authority) is involved, that window can shrink to as little as six months. Waiting too long can cost you the right to pursue compensation at all.
California follows pure comparative fault, meaning you can still recover damages even if you were partly responsible for what happened. Your recovery is simply reduced by your share of fault, not eliminated.
In most ordinary injury cases, California places no cap on non-economic damages like pain, suffering, or loss of enjoyment of life. An attorney can help you understand what that might mean for your specific situation.
Attorneys in our network work on contingency, so there's no upfront cost to get advice or representation. Fees only come out of a settlement or award, not out of your pocket up front.
