Gather Infomation
  • If you have suffered a minor injury from a
    car accident or slip and fall accident on some
    premises, it is important to collect as much
    information as you can at the scene. If the
    injuries are major then it may be impossible for
    you to collect the evidence but if its not then
    You should  take the photographs of the scene
    from different angles as a piece of evidence.

Establish a legal standing
  • According to California Law courts, you have the
    legal standing only if you are directly affected
    by the accident you are suing abo   Another thing

File Claim Within statue of Limitation
  • Statute of Limitation refers to a time period
    under which you have to file a lawsuit after an
    accident. If you dont file it in a given time
    period, you will lose your right to file a
    lawsuit against the responsible party. Often, the
    Statute of limitations for personal injury cases
    in California is 2 years. 

8
File a Complaint
  • Your final step is to file a complaint against
    the responsible party. Usually,  before filing a
    complaint attorney tries to settle
    a negotiation with the responsible party. If both
    parties come to an agreement then its always
    better to keep the matter out of court. Once a
    lawsuit is filed then there will be trials and
    you have to follow your lawyers instruction.
    Court Decision may take months or years, it
    depends on the nature of your case.
