Car Accident cases in Los Angeles
Car crashes happen every day across Los Angeles and Los Angeles County, from busy surface streets like Wilshire Boulevard, Sunset Boulevard, and Figueroa Street to high-speed stretches of Interstate 5, Interstate 10, Highway 101, and Interstate 405. Combined with some of the busiest freeways in the nation, serious collisions — including rideshare crashes — are common, and they often lead to disputes over insurance, medical treatment, and accident-related losses.

How a participating law firm may review your situation
After you submit a free case review, your inquiry is routed to a participating California law firm. A firm may contact you to learn more, explain how California claims generally work, and determine whether they may be able to help. There is no cost to request a review, and submitting the form does not create an attorney-client relationship.
What information to prepare
- The date and location of what happened

- Photos of the scene, vehicles or equipment, and any injuries
- Names and contact info for any witnesses
- Records of medical treatment you have received
- Insurance or employer information, as applicable
Why quick action matters in California
California generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit, but shorter deadlines can apply — especially for claims involving a government entity, which may require a formal claim within six months. Evidence also fades quickly. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
