How to choose a lawyer in Auburn

Choose a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers weigh whether a firm will go to court. Look for knowledge of local courts and the insurers that handle claims in the area. Get contingency terms in writing and confirm there is no fee unless you win. Ask who personally handles your case day to day, and check the attorney's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions to compare the local attorneys listed in our directory before you commit.

What to do after an accident in Auburn

Get medical care first, even if you feel fine, since some injuries show up later. Document the scene and your injuries with photos and notes, and exchange and gather information from everyone involved. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, bills, and time missed from work. California sets a filing deadline of 2 years from the date of injury, so acting promptly matters and delays can cost you options. Once your health is addressed, reach out to a local attorney to review your situation.

California injury law, in brief

California gives injury victims 2 years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. The state also follows pure comparative negligence, so your recovery can be reduced by your share of fault. See the California page for full details.
