California's general rule gives you two years to file a personal injury lawsuit. But in Santa Clarita, many accidents have a public entity behind them: a Santa Clarita Transit bus, a pothole on a city street, a Caltrans work zone on the I-5 or the 14, or a Los Angeles County truck. In those cases you first have to file an administrative claim within six months, and if that deadline passes, the case is closed for good.
That's why we answer right away: you call or write, a person answers in Spanish within minutes, and your case is evaluated in less than 24 hours, with the exact deadline you're facing and against whom. If you qualify, the lawyer starts requesting camera footage and locating witnesses that same week, before the evidence disappears.

Yes. The California Labor Code protects every worker regardless of immigration status, and the same goes for personal injury claims. The consultation is confidential.
You still have rights. Workers' compensation in California doesn't depend on who was at fault: if you were hurt doing your job, your employer's insurance must pay for your medical care and part of your wages while you recover.
In California, every employer with at least one worker is required to carry workers' compensation insurance. If they don't, they broke the law, and a state fund for employees of uninsured employers may cover your benefits.
Summers in the valley often top 100 °F, and California law requires employers to provide water, shade, and breaks to anyone working outside. If the heat made you sick on the job, it may be a workers' compensation claim.
Don't give recorded statements or sign anything before talking to us. The first offer is almost always much lower than what the case is worth.
We answer in minutes and evaluate your case in less than 24 hours.
No cost, no obligation.
We cover the case expenses up front.
Crashes on the I-5 and the 14, at the Newhall Pass, and on roads like Bouquet Canyon, Soledad Canyon, and Newhall Ranch Road. Also cargo trucks coming down the Grapevine, motorcycles, pedestrian accidents, and Uber or Lyft rides. We tell you how much insurance is available before you decide anything.
Warehouses and distribution centers, restaurants, hotels, amusement parks, landscaping, and cleaning. We file your workers' compensation claim and fight the insurer's denials.
The new neighborhoods going up in Valencia, Saugus, and Castaic bring scaffolds, heights, trenches, and heavy machinery. We check whether, besides the work claim, there's a contractor or manufacturer you can sue, with much higher compensation.
Slips and falls in stores, apartments, and shopping centers, dog bites, medical malpractice, and wrongful death.
The valley's job hub. Crashes on McBean Parkway and Newhall Ranch Road, and injuries at warehouses, stores, and restaurants.
Home to the city's busiest intersection, Newhall Ranch Road at Bouquet Canyon, with more than 113,000 vehicles a day. The Bouquet Canyon and Soledad Canyon intersection recorded 13 crashes in one year, the highest number in the latest city report.
The city's oldest neighborhood. Accidents on Lyons Avenue and Sierra Highway, and near the Newhall Pass, where the I-5 and the 14 meet.
Soledad Canyon Road and the 14 carry the daily traffic to the Antelope Valley. We handle crashes, pedestrian accidents, and injuries at local businesses.
They're outside city limits, in Los Angeles County territory. Trucks on the I-5 and crashes on The Old Road. If the county is responsible, the six-month deadline also applies.

Two years to file a personal injury lawsuit. Six months for the prior claim when the responsible party is the City of Santa Clarita, Santa Clarita Transit, Los Angeles County, Caltrans, or a school district. Knowing which one applies is the first thing we check.
California uses pure comparative negligence: if you were 30% responsible, you recover 70%. Insurers inflate your percentage because every point saves them money, and that's where a lawyer protects your money.
It went up in 2025, and even so a hospital stay uses it up fast. If the driver who hit you had no insurance or very little, your own UM/UIM coverage may pay: we review it for free.
Preferably in writing. Your employer must give you the DWC-1 form within one business day. If they refused, threatened you, or fired you for filing a claim, that adds to your case.
