Step-by-Step Guide

What Should You Do After an Accident in Victorville?

  1. 1

    Call 911 and Report the Accident

    In California, you are legally required to report accidents involving injury, death, or significant property damage. Call 911 from the scene in Victorville and request both police and medical assistance.

  2. 2

    Seek Immediate Medical Attention

    Go to a hospital or urgent care — even if you feel fine. Many injuries like whiplash, concussions, and internal bleeding don't show symptoms immediately. Nearby hospitals include Desert Valley Hospital and Victor Valley Global Medical Center.

  3. 3

    Document Everything at the Scene

    Take photos and videos of all vehicles, injuries, road conditions, traffic signals, and skid marks. Get names, phone numbers, and insurance information from all parties and witnesses.

  4. 4

    Do Not Speak to Insurance Adjusters Without an Attorney

    Insurance companies will contact you quickly — often within 24 hours. Their goal is to get a recorded statement they can use against you and to offer a lowball settlement before you understand your claim's true value.

  5. 5

    Contact a Personal Injury Attorney Immediately

    California's statute of limitations is 2 years from date of injury (Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 335.1). However, critical evidence — surveillance footage, witness memories, vehicle data — degrades rapidly. The sooner you call Bond Legal at (866) 423-7724, the stronger your case.

  6. 6

    Keep All Medical Records and Bills

    Every doctor visit, prescription, therapy session, and medical bill becomes evidence of your damages. Keep a daily journal documenting your pain levels, limitations, and emotional impact.

California Law

How Does California Personal Injury Law Work?

Pure Comparative Fault

Source: Li v. Yellow Cab Co., 13 Cal.3d 804 (1975)

California follows a pure comparative fault system — you can recover damages even if you are 99% at fault, though your award is reduced by your percentage of responsibility.

Statute of Limitations: 2 years from date of injury

Source: Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 335.1

In California, you generally have 2 years from date of injury from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline typically bars you from recovering any compensation. There are limited exceptions for minors, discovery of latent injuries, and government claims — consult an attorney immediately.

Damage Caps

No statutory cap on economic or non-economic damages in most personal injury cases. Medical malpractice non-economic damages were previously capped at $250,000 under MICRA but increased under AB 35 (2022) to $350,000–$750,000 depending on case type, with annual increases through 2033.

Key California Laws Affecting Your Case

Proposition 213

Cal. Civ. Code § 3333.4

Uninsured drivers cannot recover non-economic damages in auto accident cases.

AB 218 (Childhood Sexual Assault Revival)

Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 340.1

Eliminated the statute of limitations for childhood sexual assault claims filed before December 31, 2022, and extended it to age 40 or 5 years from discovery for future claims.

Mandatory Minimum Auto Insurance

Cal. Ins. Code § 11580.1b

California requires minimum liability coverage of 30/60/15 ($30,000 per person, $60,000 per accident bodily injury, $15,000 property damage) as of 2025.

AB 35 (MICRA Reform)

Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 667.7

Raised medical malpractice non-economic damages cap from $250,000 to $350,000–$750,000 (sliding scale), with annual increases through 2033.

Government Tort Claims Act

Cal. Gov. Code § 911.2

Claims against government entities require filing a formal Government Tort Claim within 6 months of the incident — far shorter than the standard 2-year SOL.
