Why Should I Hire a Vehicle Accident Lawyer?

Hiring a vehicle accident lawyer can significantly increase the amount of compensation you receive. Insurance companies often try to minimize payouts, delay claims, or deny them altogether. An experienced attorney knows how to push back. We collect critical evidence, handle all communications, bring in experts when needed, and make sure your rights are protected at every step.

Without legal representation, you risk being pressured into a lowball settlement. We fight to ensure you are fully compensated for your current and future medical expenses, lost wages, reduced earning potential, and pain and suffering.

How Much Will it Cost to Hire a Vehicle Accident Attorney?

At Mova Law Group, we work on a contingency fee basis. That means you don’t pay anything upfront. We only get paid if we win your case. Our goal is to make high-quality legal representation accessible to everyone, regardless of financial situation. During your free consultation, we’ll explain our fee structure clearly so there are no surprises.

What’s My Vehicle Accident Case Worth?

Every case is different, and the value depends on many factors including the severity of your injuries, the extent of your damages, liability issues, and available insurance coverage. You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and property damage.

Some cases may also qualify for punitive damages if gross negligence was involved. After a thorough evaluation, we’ll give you a realistic estimate based on case precedent and your unique circumstances.

How Long Do I Have to File a Vehicle Accident Case in San Diego?

California’s statute of limitations for personal injury cases is two years from the date of the accident. If you wait too long to file, you could lose your right to pursue compensation. However, exceptions may apply depending on the specifics of your case, such as when a government entity is involved or if the injured party was a minor at the time of the accident. The sooner you contact us, the more effectively we can protect your rights and build a strong case.

Can I Get Money If I Was Partly At Fault For My Accident?

Yes. California follows a pure comparative negligence rule, which means you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you were 20% responsible for the crash, your recovery would be reduced by 20%. We’ll help prove the other party’s liability and minimize your percentage of fault.

Will My Accident Case Go to Trial?

Most accident cases settle out of court, but some do go to trial — especially if the insurance company refuses to make a fair offer. At Mova Law Group, we prepare every case as if it will go to trial. This approach puts pressure on insurers and positions you for the strongest possible result. If trial is necessary, our experienced litigators are ready to represent you in court.

What Should I Do After a Vehicle Accident?

Take these steps to protect your health and legal rights:

• Call 911 and get medical attention immediately
• Report the accident to police and get a copy of the report
• Take photos of the scene, vehicle damage, and injuries
• Get contact and insurance information from all parties
• Avoid discussing fault or giving a recorded statement
• Contact Mova Law Group as soon as possible for guidance

What Compensation Is Available If I’m Hurt in a Car Accident?

Depending on your case, you may be eligible for both economic and non-economic damages:

• Medical expenses (past and future)
• Lost income and future earnings
• Property damage
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Loss of enjoyment of life

In some cases, punitive damages may be awarded to punish egregious misconduct. We’ll help you pursue the full value of your losses.

Who Could Be Liable For My Injuries?

Liability may extend beyond the other driver. Depending on the details, other potentially responsible parties include:

• Employers of at-fault drivers (if they were on the job)
• Rideshare companies (e.g., Uber, Lyft)
• Government agencies (for unsafe roads)
• Vehicle or parts manufacturers (for defective components)

We look at every angle to hold all negligent parties accountable.

Common Injuries Suffered in Vehicle Accidents

Car crashes can result in a wide range of injuries, some of which may have long-term consequences:

• Whiplash and neck injuries
• Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
• Back and spinal cord injuries
• Broken bones and fractures
• Lacerations and soft tissue damage
• Internal bleeding or organ damage

Some injuries may not be immediately apparent. Always get checked by a doctor after a crash, and follow up if symptoms appear later.
