Questions
What types of personal injury cases do you handle?
We handle automobile accidents, premises liability cases, construction accidents, defective products, and wrongful death claims throughout Santa Clara County and the Bay Area.
Do you offer free initial consultations?
Yes, we provide free initial consultations to evaluate personal injury cases and recommend appropriate legal strategies without charging any upfront fees.
How are your legal fees structured?
We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no fees unless we recover compensation for your case. Legal costs are advanced by the firm.
What information should I bring to the consultation?
Bring police reports, witness contact information, accident photographs, medical records, and insurance documents to help us evaluate your case effectively.
What is the statute of limitations for injury cases?
In California, personal injury claims must typically be filed within two years from the accident date to preserve legal rights.
Can I sue a friend if injured as a passenger?
You generally sue the at-fault driver's insurance company rather than the individual, which minimizes personal impact on relationships while securing necessary compensation.
