What if the accident happened at a poorly marked intersection on Pleasant Valley Road?

If inadequate signage, faded road markings, or missing traffic controls contributed to the accident, you may have a claim against the government entity responsible for that roadway. These claims require special procedures and fast action. Contact us right away.

The other driver got a traffic citation. Does that help my case?

Yes. A traffic citation issued to the other driver is evidence of negligence per se, meaning the citation itself helps establish that the driver violated a duty of care owed to you. It strengthens your claim significantly, although it is not the only evidence we rely on.

Can I recover if my injuries were pre-existing and the accident made them worse?

Yes. Under California's eggshell plaintiff rule, a defendant is liable for the full extent of your injuries even if you had a pre-existing condition that made you more vulnerable. If the accident aggravated your prior condition, you can recover for that aggravation.
