In California, you have two years to file a claim from the accident date. Certain complicated factors might be eligible for an exception in this statute of limitations. Therefore, booking legal services in California is the best way to understand your legal options. 

What Damages Can I Recover?

In a personal injury case in California, you may be entitled to recover various damages for the losses you suffered due to the motor vehicle accident. Based on the unique circumstances of your case, you can recover the following damages:

• Economic Damages: These are quantifiable and tangible losses, like lost wages, property damage, existing medical expenses, and future medical costs related to the injury.
• Non-Economic Damages: These are intangible losses without specific monetary value, like emotional distress, diminished quality of life, pain and suffering, and more.
• Wrongful Death Damages: In some cases, motor vehicle accidents might cause severe injuries that result in the victim passing away. The surviving family members can receive wrongful death damages, including emotional suffering, loss of financial support, burial costs, and funeral expenses.
• Punitive Damages: In some cases, if the defendant's actions were highly negligent or intentional, punitive damages might be included to punish the negligent party and prevent similar conduct in the future.

Hiring an experienced lawyer can help you understand the damages you may be eligible to recover and advocate for your right to fair compensation in California.
