One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesSanta Clara is a city of more than 126,000 people, and much of daily life happens on property someone else is responsible for keeping safe: the retail strips along El Camino Real, apartment complexes near Lafayette Street and Monroe Street, office campuses off San Tomas Expressway, hotel lobbies, and grocery aisles. When a wet floor, broken step, uneven walkway, or dim stairwell causes a fall, California law asks a specific question. Did the owner or manager know about the hazard, or should they have known, and did they fail to fix it or warn you? That question of notice usually decides a premises case. Evidence disappears fast. Spills get mopped, torn carpet gets replaced, and surveillance footage is often overwritten within days. Photograph the hazard, get names of witnesses, ask that video be preserved, and see a doctor. LawProactive is not a law firm. We are a free service that connects injured people in Santa Clara with an independent attorney who works on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
California requires proof that the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard. The attorney you are connected with will focus on inspection logs, prior complaints, and how long the condition existed.
Most Santa Clara businesses keep surveillance for only a short window before it is recorded over. A prompt preservation demand can be the difference between a documented hazard and a dispute over your word alone.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
You generally have two years to file, and far less if a public entity owns the property. Under pure comparative fault, being partly responsible reduces your recovery but does not erase it.
