In California, personal injury claims are based on negligence—the failure to exercise reasonable care that results in harm to another person. To hold someone liable for your injuries, you must prove four elements:
Liability can rest with individuals, businesses, government entities, or multiple parties. For example:
A successful personal injury claim can help you recover compensation for the following financial and non-financial losses:
Economic Damages
Non-Economic Damages
Punitive Damages
In cases of egregious negligence, such as drunk driving, California courts may award punitive damages to punish the wrongdoer and deter future misconduct.
Comparative Negligence
California follows a pure comparative negligence rule (Civil Code § 1714). You can still recover damages even if you share fault, but your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of responsibility.
Statute of Limitations
In most cases, you have two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit under California Code of Civil Procedure §335.1. However, claims against government entities must be filed within six months.
Handling a personal injury claim alone can be stressful and risky. A skilled attorney provides the following.
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, including Hanson & Mouri. This means you do not pay any legal fees upfront. Instead, the lawyer receives a percentage of the compensation they recover for you. If they do not win your case, you typically owe nothing for their legal services. Here is how the typical fee structure works:
Contingency Fee Percentage
The fee usually ranges from 33% to 40% of the settlement or verdict.
Case Expenses
In addition to the lawyer’s percentage, there may be case-related costs such as:
These expenses are usually advanced by the law firm and reimbursed from your settlement.
