How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim in Southern California?

In California, personal injury victims have 2 years from the date of the injury to file a claim. Although you have 2 years, contacting an injury lawyer as soon as possible is recommended. This gives your attorney the most time possible to build a strong claim. 

There are some exceptions to the standard statute of limitations for injury claims that can shorten or extend the length. For example, if your claim involves the City of Long Beach, the Port, or a public agency, the time limit is 6 months.

How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Personal Injury Attorney from Harting Simkins & Ryan?

It costs you nothing up front to hire us. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning that we take an agreed-upon percentage of legal fees out of your final award. Fees depend on the case, but usually range between 25-33%. We will discuss fees during your free consultation.

Am I Still Able to Recover Compensation if I Am Partially At Fault?

Yes, in California, you can recover compensation even if you are up to 99% responsible. California is one of the few states to follow the pure comparative negligence system.

When fault is shared, it is often disputed. In situations with disputed fault, you will want an attorney who can negotiate a fair settlement for you.

What Should I Look for When Hiring an Attorney for a Severe Injury Case?

As you research accident and injury attorneys in Southern California, look for a law firm that can demonstrate experience in handling your type of case. A Long Beach motorcycle accident attorney who only specializes in auto accidents, for example, may not understand the nuances of a wrongful death lawsuit in Long Beach. Our boutique firm is small enough to provide personalized support but large enough to offer the resources needed to pursue action in most areas of personal injury law.
