California Personal Injury Legal Help

Under California Civil Code § 1714, everyone is responsible for injuries caused by their want of ordinary care or skill. California operates under a pure comparative negligence doctrine, meaning injured victims can recover damages proportional to the defendant’s fault even if partially responsible.

California law provides distinct legal frameworks and deadlines that govern personal injury matters. Navigating local superior courts and state agencies requires thorough preparation and understanding of applicable statutory provisions.

Common Personal Injury Issues We Help With

Motor vehicle, commercial trucking, and rideshare (Uber/Lyft) accidents
Premises liability: slip and fall hazards in retail stores, apartment buildings, and public walkways
Catastrophic injury claims: traumatic brain injuries (TBI), spinal cord damage, and amputations
Bicycle, electric scooter, and pedestrian crosswalk impact collisions
Wrongful death lawsuits under California Code of Civil Procedure § 377.60

Key California Statutory Citations & Legal Protections

Matters in California are governed by specific state codes, statutory standards, and administrative procedures:

California Civil Code § 1714 (General Negligence Standard of Care)
California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1 (2-Year Statute of Limitations for Injury Actions)
California Code of Civil Procedure § 377.60 (California Wrongful Death Statute)
