Clear Guidance From a Team That Puts You First
Whether you need help understanding your legal options, want to know what to expect, or simply don’t want to face this alone, we’re here to provide honest guidance.

🧑⚖️ Understanding Personal Injury Law in California
-
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?
The statute of limitations for most California personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident or injury. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation. Therefore, it’s important to speak with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible to protect your claim.
-
Can I still get compensation if I was partially at fault?
Yes. Under California’s comparative fault laws, you may still receive compensation even if you were partially responsible for the accident. However, your total recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault — but you’re not automatically disqualified. Let Cohn & Swartzon Injury Attorneys assess your case and fight for a fair outcome.
-
How long does a personal injury case take?
Depending on the case, some personal injury claims settle in just a few months, while others may take over a year. This often depends on factors such as injury severity, ongoing medical treatment, and the complexity of insurance negotiations. Throughout the process, Cohn & Swartzon keeps you informed and works efficiently to secure the compensation you need — all without sacrificing results.
💼 Hiring a Lawyer: What to Expect
-
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury attorney in California?
At Cohn & Swartzon Injury Attorneys, there are no upfront costs to hire us. In fact, we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay anything unless we win your case. As a result, injured individuals can seek justice without the added stress of legal fees. Additionally, your initial consultation is always free, giving you a risk-free opportunity to learn more about your options.
-
Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company already offered me a settlement?
Before accepting any settlement, it’s always a good idea to speak with a personal injury attorney. In many cases, insurance companies offer low initial payouts that fail to reflect the full extent of your medical bills, lost income, or long-term needs. By speaking with an attorney early, you protect yourself from signing away your rights for far less than you deserve.
At Cohn & Swartzon, we take the time to review your settlement offer, explain your legal options, and determine whether it truly meets your needs. If it doesn’t, we’re ready to negotiate on your behalf and pursue a stronger result — all at no upfront cost to you.
-
When does an attorney-client relationship officially begin?
While our offices are based in Santa Ana and Tulare, we proudly assist injury victims across the entire state of California. Thanks to modern technology, we’re able to handle consultations, case updates, and document reviews remotely — making it easy for you to get legal help no matter where you’re located.
An attorney-client relationship is formally established when both you and the law firm sign a written fee agreement. This agreement outlines the scope of representation, the terms of payment, and the responsibilities of both parties. Until that agreement is signed, preliminary conversations or consultations do not necessarily create a binding legal relationship.
At Cohn & Swartzon, we take this process seriously to ensure clarity, transparency, and trust. Once the fee agreement is signed, you officially become our client—and we begin working on your behalf to protect your rights and pursue the compensation you deserve.
-
Can I switch lawyers if I’m not happy with my current personal injury attorney?
Yes, you can. In California, you have the legal right to change attorneys at any point during your case if you’re not satisfied with the representation. Whether it’s due to poor communication, lack of progress, or a change in trust, you are not locked in permanently.
At Cohn & Swartzon, we often assist clients who have transitioned from other firms. Once we review your case file, we handle the legal logistics of switching representation, ensuring a smooth handoff so your claim stays on track — and your rights stay protected.
Additionally, if you have further questions or want to discuss your situation in detail, contact us directly for a free case evaluation.
