California Law

California Car Accident Law — What Every Redlands Driver Needs to Know

⚖ Statute of Limitations — CCP §335.1
You have 2 years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit. Government entity claims: 6 months. Miss either deadline and your case is permanently barred.
⚖ Pure Comparative Fault — Civil Code §1714
California allows recovery even if you were partially at fault. A 25% at-fault plaintiff still recovers 75% of damages. Insurers exploit this — we protect your fault % from day one.
⚖ Mandatory Insurance — Vehicle Code §16020
California requires $15K/$30K/$5K minimum. Commercial vehicles: FMCSA minimums of $750K–$5M. We identify every applicable policy — including umbrella policies insurers never disclose voluntarily.
⚖ Evidence Preservation Duty
Once litigation is anticipated, parties must preserve evidence. Our legal hold letters trigger this duty immediately, creating spoliation liability if evidence is then destroyed.
