Redding Accident LawyerHave You Been Injured in an Accident?
Our Attorneys fight for injured victims of all types of accidents, including, car, truck, motorcycle, boating, bicycle, rideshare, and other accidents. We represent injured clients throughout Redding, Shasta County, and Northern California. No fee unless we win.
What We doProtecting Injured North State Residents
Accidents don't follow a schedule, and neither do we. Whether you were rear-ended on Highway 99, hit by an uninsured driver on I-5, or injured in a boating accident on Shasta Lake, you deserve a legal team that knows this region, its roads, its courts, and its insurance carriers.
California law places the burden of proof on the injured party. That means documenting the scene, preserving evidence, negotiating with adjusters who are paid to minimize your payout, and if necessary taking your case to trial. We handle every step of that process so you can focus on recovery.
Our attorneys represent clients throughout the North State on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we recover compensation on your behalf. There are no hidden fees, no hourly billing, and no upfront costs of any kind.

Accident ClaimsFrequently Asked Questions
These answers reflect California law as it generally applies to accident injury claims in the North State. Every case is different, contact us for guidance specific to your situation.
-
California law allows accident victims to recover both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages include medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and property repair or replacement. Non-economic damages include pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. California does not cap non-economic damages in most personal injury accident cases, which means there is no fixed ceiling on what you may recover for pain and suffering.
-
California follows a pure comparative fault rule. You can still recover damages even if you were partially responsible. Your total compensation is simply reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if a jury determines you were 25% at fault and your total damages are $200,000, you recover $150,000. Insurance companies routinely try to inflate your share of the blame to reduce what they owe. Our attorneys counter this tactic aggressively.
-
The standard statute of limitations for personal injury claims in California is two years from the date of the accident (California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1). If a government entity was involved such as a city bus, state vehicle, or county truck, you must file a government tort claim within six months. Property damage claims have a three-year deadline. Missing any of these deadlines permanently ends your right to recover.
-
Almost never. First offers are designed to close claims before you fully understand the extent of your injuries and future costs. Once you accept a settlement and sign a release, you cannot reopen the claim, even if you later discover permanent injuries or ongoing medical needs. Always consult an attorney before signing anything. Our initial consultation is free and comes with no obligation to hire us.
-
Clear liability does not guarantee fair compensation. Even when fault is obvious, insurance companies will dispute the value of your injuries, question whether your treatment was necessary, or argue that pre-existing conditions account for some of your symptoms. An experienced accident attorney knows how to document, present, and defend the full value of your claim, and our involvement typically results in significantly higher net recoveries even after attorney fees.
-
You may have several options. First, check your own auto policy for uninsured motorist (UM) or underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage. California insurers are required to offer this coverage, and many drivers carry it without realizing it. Second, you may be able to pursue the uninsured driver directly through a civil lawsuit. Our attorneys will review your full coverage picture and advise you on the best path forward for your specific situation.
