How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim?

According to the California Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1, injury victims have two years to file a personal injury claim before the statute of limitations ends. This means you have two years to file your claim or you will lose your right to do so. There are exceptions to this rule which can extend or shorten the amount of time you have to file so it’s best to contact an attorney from our firm as soon as possible to discuss the specifics of your case. We offer free consultations, so you have nothing to lose. Call us today!

What Damages Can I Recover in a Personal Injury Claim?

While the specific amount of compensation you may be eligible to recover will depend on the specifics of your case, usually, the types of damages you can pursue remain consistent in all personal injury cases. These types of damages are economic damages, non-economic damages and punitive damages.

Economic damages compensate the injured party for the financial losses they suffer that are associated with their injuries, such as medical expenses or missed wages due to the inability to work. Non-economic damages compensate the injured party for non-financial suffering, such as pain or mental anguish. The last type of damages is different from the first two in that their main purpose is to serve as a punishment for the negligent party, as such they are not often awarded.
