Injured in a car, truck, motorcycle, rideshare, pedestrian, or bicycle accident? Golde Law Firm helps injured people pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, property damage, and other losses caused by negligent drivers and responsible parties.
A collision rarely ends when the tow truck leaves. Treatment continues, work is missed, and an insurance adjuster calls before you have had a chance to understand your own injuries. Golde Law Firm handles that side of it — the records, the liens, the property-damage claim, and the conversations with the carrier — so you can concentrate on recovering.
Motor vehicle claims in California turn on evidence that disappears quickly: vehicle data, roadway conditions, video from nearby businesses, and the recollection of witnesses who were passing through. Investigating early matters, and so does identifying every party who may share responsibility — another driver, a trucking company, a rideshare operator, or a vehicle owner.
California also places firm deadlines on injury claims, and shorter ones apply when a public entity is involved. If you were hit by a negligent driver anywhere in California, it is worth having the timeline reviewed rather than assumed.
Your health comes first, and the medical record created in those early visits is often the clearest account of what the collision did to you.
Photographs, the police report number, witness contact details, and the damaged vehicle itself can all matter. Keep them if you can.
You are not required to give a recorded statement to another driver’s insurer before you understand your injuries or your rights.
Insurance carriers begin building their file the day a collision is reported. Nothing on this page is legal advice about your particular claim, and no deadline described here should be relied on without speaking to an attorney about your specific circumstances.
