Personal Injury Lawyers in Sacramento

41 personal injury attorneys serve Sacramento. Cases are filed in the Sacramento County Superior Court, with federal matters in the Eastern District of California.

California's pure comparative negligence rule means a claimant's share of fault reduces the award rather than defeating the claim. Where a public entity is involved — a city, county or state agency, which in the capital region is common — a formal government claim must usually be presented within months, long before any lawsuit is filed.

Raise that point on the first call if your collision involved a public vehicle, a road defect or a government employee. Ask too how case costs are handled if the claim does not succeed.
