How a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Help
After an accident in Chula Vista, CA the insurance company for the at-fault party may contact you. Insurance companies often offer unreasonably low settlements because:
- They know you need the money, and/or
- They think you do not know the full extent of your injuries.
In fact, the insurance companies maximize their profit by denying compensation whenever possible.
Having an experienced attorney on your side can level the playing field. Our legal team has over 20 years of combined experience dealing with insurance companies. We will carefully examine your case to fully understand the extent of your injuries. An injury that seems minor now could lead to long-term physical pain and require ongoing medical treatment.
Don’t try to negotiate with the insurance companies on your own. Let our Chula Vista personal injury attorneys fight on your behalf so you can focus on your loved ones.
How Long Do You Have To File a Personal Injury Lawsuit?
In most cases, you have two-years from the date of the incident to file a personal injury claim. (See California Code of Civil Procedure 335.1). Because of this short window, it’s best to see an attorney immediately after your accident. Your lawyer will need to conduct an extensive investigation, which takes time. Further, the longer you wait, the more risk you run of evidence being lost or memories fading.
