Car Accidents in California
Car accidents in California continue to occur at high rates across urban and rural areas. According to state data, over 3,600 people lost their lives on California roadways in 2023, with tens of thousands more sustaining injuries. Many of these collisions occur on urban streets like those in Los Angeles, often during morning or evening commutes. Accidents range from minor fender benders to severe crashes with multiple injuries. When someone is injured in a car accident, the road to recovery can be overwhelming. Below are a few things worth understanding after a crash:
- Long-Term Pain Can Follow Seemingly Minor Injuries: Even if you feel fine right after a crash, symptoms like whiplash, back pain, and nerve damage may emerge days or weeks later. It’s important to get checked by a medical professional even if you initially think the pain is mild or tolerable.
- Lost Wages Add Up Quickly: Missing work after a crash can affect your household income significantly. In addition to medical bills, many accident victims face financial strain from not being able to earn money. A legal claim can help you recover lost wages during your time off.
- Insurance Companies Aim to Minimize Payouts: Insurance companies often try to settle claims quickly and for as little as possible. Without someone protecting your interests, you may receive a settlement that doesn’t come close to covering your real losses.
- Crash Reports and Evidence Are Crucial: Gathering the police report, witness statements, photos, and medical records can make or break your case. The sooner this evidence is preserved, the better it is for your claim.
- Injury Claims Have Filing Deadlines: Every personal injury case is subject to legal time limits, known as statutes of limitations. In California, this period is typically two years from the date of the accident. Waiting too long to take legal action can mean losing your right to seek compensation.
