Does hiring an attorney slow down my case?

No — it typically speeds up meaningful resolution and dramatically increases your recovery. Unrepresented claimants often accept low first offers quickly. Represented clients receive 2–5x more, even accounting for attorney fees, and the additional time is spent fighting for that difference.

What is the statute of limitations for personal injury in California?

2 years from the date of the accident for most personal injury claims. 6 months for claims against government entities. 3 years for property damage only. If you were a minor at the time of the accident, special rules apply. Missing the deadline permanently bars your claim — call DePaoli Law Team immediately.
