Immediate Steps After an Accident

It's important to inform your insurance company about the accident, but you should consult with an attorney before making any statements or accepting any settlements. RightsMatters can guide you through the process.
First, ensure your safety and seek medical attention if needed. Then, gather as much information as possible, including contact details of witnesses and photographs of the scene. Finally, contact RightsMatters for legal guidance.

Legal Time Limits and Claim Process

The process generally involves gathering evidence, filing a claim with the insurance company, negotiating a settlement, and, if necessary, pursuing legal action. RightsMatters will handle each step to ensure your rights are protected.
In California, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim, including car accidents, is generally two years from the date of the accident. It's important to consult with an attorney promptly to understand your specific situation.

Types of Compensation and Court Proceedings

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and more. Our attorneys will assess your case to determine the full extent of damages you may recover.

Lawyer's Role and Firm Differentiation

Many car accident cases are settled outside of court through negotiations with insurance companies. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, RightsMatters is prepared to represent you in court to ensure your rights are protected.

Decision-Making and Consultation Process

The value of your case is determined based on various factors, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Our attorneys will evaluate all these aspects to ensure you receive fair compensation.
It's advisable to consult with an attorney if you've been injured or if significant property damage has occurred. RightsMatters offers free consultations to help you understand your legal options.
