One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesSanta Clara's streets carry a mix of commuter traffic, tech-campus shifts, and event crowds, and the collisions that result are a matter of public record. In 2025, the most recent final reporting year, the city logged 367 injury collisions, with 496 people injured and 4 traffic deaths. El Camino Real, Lafayette Street, San Tomas Expressway, and Monroe Street account for the highest collision counts, and reports tend to cluster on Tuesdays between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m., when many residents are simply heading home. If you were one of the people hurt, the weeks after a crash can feel like a second job: calls from adjusters, medical appointments, a car in the shop, and paperwork you did not ask for. LawProactive exists to take one item off that list. We are not a law firm. We are a free service that connects you with an independent Santa Clara County car accident attorney who works on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery. You describe what happened; we handle the introduction.
California generally allows two years to file a car accident lawsuit, but a claim involving a city, county, or state entity may need to be filed in as little as six months. Getting connected early keeps those deadlines from quietly passing.
California follows pure comparative fault, so even if you were partly responsible, you can still pursue compensation reduced by your share of blame. An attorney can push back when an insurer tries to assign you more fault than the evidence supports.
