Most personal injury claims need to be filed within two years of the accident, while property damage claims can be filed for up to three years. Acting quickly protects your right to recover and preserves crucial evidence.

In one instant, a car crash can alter your entire life. Our mission is to fight for what comes next.
After an accident, the stress can be overwhelming. How will you handle medical bills? What happens if you can’t return to work? What do you say when the insurance company calls tomorrow? Having a skilled auto accident attorney can help you navigate these difficult questions.

At Cardona Law, we cut through the chaos and take on negligent drivers and powerful insurance companies that try to undervalue your claim. With us, you don’t just have legal representation – you gain an advocate who protects your health, your financial stability, and your future.
What to Do After a California Car Accident

Your health must come first. Even small injuries can signal something serious, and medical records are critical to your claim.

How Cardona Law Supports Accident Victims
We don’t just seek compensation – we work to restore your peace of mind and give you the space to heal.
Putting Your Recovery First
A car crash impacts more than your vehicle – it disrupts every part of your life. At Cardona Law, our focus goes beyond winning cases; we fight to restore stability so you can focus on recovery while we handle the legal battle. Finding a skilled car wreck lawyer is the first step toward that stability.
Financial stress begins immediately. That’s why we work on a contingency basis: no upfront fees, no hidden costs. You only pay us if we win. Justice should never be out of reach – it should be accessible to every Californian.
From the start, we take a detailed approach: reviewing accident reports, interviewing witnesses, analyzing medical records, and working with accident reconstruction experts. This thorough preparation helps us build the strongest case possible.
Taking On Insurance Companies for You
Insurance companies are not on your side – their priority is minimizing payouts. That’s why we take over every call, document, and negotiation, protecting you from tactics designed to undercut your claim.
But our support doesn’t stop there. We help coordinate your care by connecting you with trusted medical professionals, so your recovery comes first.
And when it comes to compensation, we push for the full measure of what you’ve lost – not just medical bills or lost wages, but also the pain, stress, and upheaval the crash has caused. Because for us, justice isn’t only about dollars – it’s about restoring lives and securing brighter futures.
FAQ
How long do I have to file a claim in California?
Do I need to pay anything upfront?
No. We work on a contingency fee – meaning you pay nothing until we win your case.
What if the other driver doesn’t have insurance?
We’ll explore all available options with you and discuss possibilities, including your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage.
Should I talk to the insurance company?
Not before speaking with us. Insurance adjusters are trained to reduce payouts. We handle those conversations to protect your rights.
