STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS

SACRAMENTO AUTO ACCIDENT LAWYER

Sacramento auto accident lawyer

Statute of limitations is the time a person has to bring a case forth to court.

It’s like the timer that is set after an incident in which a person must take action. Fundamentally, if you fail to get to court by a certain time after your incident, the court will most likely refuse to hear your case. As soon as you are involved in any type of accident, contact a Sacramento auto accident lawyer immediately.

When it comes to personal injury cases, sooner rather than later will always yield you the best results. According to California law, for average personal injury cases, the statute of limitations is two years following the date of incident. This information can also be found in the California Code of Civil Procedure. One of the exceptions to this statute is cases that are brought against the government and these cases must be brought to court within six months. Each case is unique and it’s best to take action immediately. Make sure you contact a Sacramento auto accident lawyer who can provide the best course of action in a timely manner.

What if I didn’t find the injury right away?

The truth is, sometimes injuries don’t show themselves immediately. Issues that were brought on by an incident can take months and even years to show. If this is the case for your injury, you typically have one year from the date you discovered your injury to come forth to court and file a case.

Tolling is a common practice where the statute is suspended and then restarted. There are many situations where trolling can occur, especially if minors are involved. Because your case is unique, contacting a skilled Sacramento auto accident lawyer is the best action you can take to ensure you file a case in a timely manner and receive the compensation you deserve for any pain and suffering you endured.

How do I know if I have a case?

If you feel you have a personal injury case that can be brought forth, get in contact with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible. They know the complicated ins and outs of civil code that can make all the difference. You should also note that the statute of limitations for every kind of case is different, so when in doubt, reach out!

      This is my second time hiring Mr. Choyce for my son, who was charged with a criminal act. Both times that I hired Mr. Choyce, I was very impressed with his knowledge of the law, his professionalism, and the fact that he was relatable. He is trustworthy, tells you the truth about what you are facing. He is organized, he is a very good listener, came up with strategies that were appealing.I can’t say enough good about Mr. Choyce! I knew that he was going to give my son’s case everything he had, and he did!

      Hiring the Choyce Law Firm was the best decision I made while trying to decide what to do after getting charged with a 3rd DUI. I tried to use a lawyer that I had previously used when in trouble with the law, he was near retirement and wasn’t able to give my case the attention I was looking for understanding that I was facing jail time. When contacting Mr Choyce we discussed my case and he told me he could help, he even knew my previous attorney. Mr Choyce was aggressive in fighting my case with filing motions on my behalf an trying to get my case dismissed, I was very pleased that he was not just looking to get the first deal the D.A. offered but was aggressively trying to win my case. Although we were not able to get the dismissal we were looking for he was able to keep me out of jail an I was able to serve my sentence on the EHD Program, which allowed me to keep my job an that was very important to me. Mr Choyce also handled a second case for me, I was charged with driving on a suspended license and no registration. Once again Mr Choyce was aggressive with this case and took it to trail an was able to get a not guilty verdict, which saved me a great deal of money in fines that would be pending with a guilty verdict. Overall hiring Mr Choyce and his team was the best decision I made, he provided great service at a respectable rate, an explained things as they were happening and with the charges I was facing I was very happy with the outcome of my cases that he handled. I would strongly recommend Mr Choyce and his team to anyone I know that needs legal representation he knows the law and will provide you with the best service you could hope for form a lawyer that wants to win.

      “This is my second time using Mr. Choyce, and I would choose no one other than him. Both times that I hired him, it was for my son, and they were very serious cases. Mr. Choyce is smart, professional, practical, and relatable. He is a serious person, who listens, speaks in laymens terms, so that you understand what is going on. Not like some that I have experience, who talk over you, and dont take the time to really answer your questions.The second case got very close to going to trial, however, I was confident that I had the best of the best representing my son. Thank God that after willing to go to trial, we got a deal that, I think was a win win.I would definitely, without a question, hire Mr. Choyce again!”
