California generally allows two years from the accident date, but exceptions exist. Contact us immediately to ensure timely filing and proper case preparation.
Will my case go to trial?
Most cases settle out of court, but we prepare every case for trial. We'll advise whether settlement or litigation offers the best path to fair compensation based on your specific circumstances.
