When to Hire a Personal Injury Attorney for a Car Accident?
In fact, it is ideal to consult a lawyer immediately after the accident, after the person has ensured his own safety. This will provide legal representation at each and every step of the way, which may be quite crucial in dealing with insurance companies and other party’s legal representatives.
For example with incidents involving TBIs, urgent action becomes even more critical because there are strict timelines that must be met when notifying the negligent party’s healthcare provider. Let our experienced lawyer Sasha Bojat deal with all the possible complexities that car accident can pose so that you can rest and focus on your recovery.

What is a Personal Injury?
Personal injury refers to physical, emotional or psychological damage that may be caused to a person through the negligent act or conditions of the premises owners or their agents. The key to every personal injury case is that there must be an element of negligence that resulted in injuries.
A personal injury may be caused by various accidents and crashes like:
- pedestrian accidents
- bicycle accidents,
- motorcycle or truck accidents,
- slip and fall accidents on another person’s property or
- product liability.
Most Common Types of Personal Injuries
Examples of personal injuries include:
- broken bones
- traumatic brain injuries
- spinal cord injuries
- burns
- emotional distress
- or any other harm that affects an individual’s well-being
These injuries can result in medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering catastrophic injuries, and other damages.

What is the Statute of Limitations for a Fresno Personal Injury Claim?
The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Fresno, like anywhere in California, is two years from the day of the accident for bodily injuries, and three years for property damage.
How Long Does it Take for a Personal Injury Case to Settle?
There are a few factors which determine the length of the personal injury process the most and these are:
- Severity of your injuries
- Duration of medical treatment prescribed by medical experts
- Complexity related to proving liability (if multiple partis are involved)
- Negotiations with insurance companies
- Court involvement
General Timeline Estimates:
Simple cases: 3 to 6 months.
Moderate cases: 6 months to a year.
Complex cases: 1 to 2 years or more, especially if litigation is involved.
What Does a Fresno Personal Injury Attorney Do?
Attorneys specializing in personal injury lawsuits are essential for individuals who have suffered harm because of the negligence of others. We focus on tort law, dealing with civil transgressions, and we manage a range of cases that include incidents like:
- falls and slips
- automobile accidents
- flawed products
- occupational injuries
- workplace accidents
Though personal injury lawyers may be known as trial lawyers, it is common for us to resolve claims of personal injury victims outside the courtroom.
We begin by conducting interviews and appraising the case brought forth by a potential client. In doing so, they pinpoint applicable legal actions, and possible responsible parties, and evaluate the strength of each claim. Our compensation structure is typically based on a contingency fee agreement, which means we receive remuneration as a proportion of what their client wins from the claim only if it turns out successful.
What is My Fresno Personal Injury Case Worth?
In determining how much your case may be worth several factors apply. They are important because they ultimately determine the value of your case. Once your Fresno personal injury attorney has more thoroughly assessed the particulars of your accident and your specific injuries, they can better advise you regarding what you can expect in regard to compensation. This will also determine approximately how much will be attorney’s fees.
These main factors are:
- The extent of your injury and recovery time: The extent of the injury and how long recovery will take or may take in the future, along with any future medical treatment, are all vital parts of establishing the value of your case.
- Medical expenses: The cost of medical care, including doctor’s bills, hospital stays, surgeries, physical therapy, and any long-term care or equipment required, will impact the overall compensation amount.
- Non-economic damages: Compensation for physical pain endured during the recovery period and the emotional distress experienced, such as depression, anxiety, or symptoms of PTSD, can contribute to increasing the support you receive.
- Loss of income: Injuries that have caused you to miss work or to earn less than before would entitle you to compensation for lost wages, not just what you have lost so far, but any potential future earnings that may be affected by your sustained injuries.
- Insurance coverage limits: The limits of the insurance coverage of liable party who was at fault in the accident also play a role in determining the potential compensation.
- Property damage: In some instances like in cases of car accidents personal injury may also be related to property damages. You can include costs meant for the repair or replacement of property damaged in your claim.
- Liability: The number of parties held responsible for the accident and their respective degrees of liability can affect the overall value of your case.
- Legal representation: Skill, experience, and expertise of a personal injury attorney elected to your case will have much to say in the proportion of legal outcome achieved.
Experienced personal injury attorney Sasha Bojat from Bojat Law Group will know how to estimate the exact value of your injury and thereby advise you whether the offer proposed by the at-fault party is fair or it should be rejected as inadequate.

Personal Injury Questions and Answers
What is defined as personal injury?
Personal injury is a legal term that refers to any physical, emotional, or psychological harm suffered by an individual due to the negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions of another party. It typically forms the basis for civil lawsuits, where the injured person (the plaintiff) seeks compensation from the responsible party (the defendant).
You slip on a wet floor at a grocery store because no warning sign was posted. You hurt your back and miss work. Since the store failed to keep the area safe, you may have a personal injury claim and be entitled to compensation for your medical bills and lost income.
How long does a personal injury claim typically take to resolve?
It depends. Some cases settle in a few months, especially if the injury is straightforward and liability is clear. Others, especially those involving serious injuries or disputed fault, can take a year or more. The timeline also depends on whether a lawsuit needs to be filed. Your lawyer should push things forward without rushing a settlement just to close the case.
Is there a deadline to file a personal injury lawsuit in California?
Yes — generally, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit in California. That clock can start ticking faster in some situations (like against a government entity), so don’t wait too long to ask. Missing the deadline usually means you lose the right to recover anything.
What should I avoid saying to insurance adjusters after an accident?
- Don’t apologize.
- Don’t downplay your injuries
- Don’t give recorded statements without legal advice.
Adjusters are not on your side — they’re trained to twist your words into reasons to pay you less.
What should I expect during the medical evaluation process for my personal injury claim?
After an accident, the medical evaluation is one of the most important parts of your claim. First, you’ll be examined by a doctor — ideally soon after the injury — who will document your symptoms, run tests if needed, and recommend treatment. This isn’t just about getting you better (though that’s the priority), it also builds a paper trail that proves your injuries are real and connected to the accident.
Sometimes you’ll be referred to a specialist, like a neurologist, orthopedist, or physical therapist. You might also undergo imaging tests like X-rays or MRIs. It’s important to follow through with every appointment and be honest about your pain, progress, and limitations. If your case proceeds toward litigation, the defense might request what’s called an IME — an independent medical exam — with their own doctor. That exam is not for your benefit, so it’s critical to go in prepared.
Your consistency, your records, and your communication with your doctors all shape how strong your case will be when it’s time to demand compensation.
What is the average payout for a personal injury claim in CA?
The average payout for a personal injury claim in California typically ranges from $20,000 to $50,000 for moderate injuries, with minor injuries settling for lower amounts (around $7,000 to $15,000) and severe or catastrophic injuries reaching six figures or more. According to recent government and legal data, the median settlement across all personal injury cases in California is approximately $31,000, while jury trial awards have a median around $150,000 but can average as high as $1.6 million due to large verdicts. Auto accident settlements often fall between $20,000 and $37,000 for moderate injuries, while more serious cases like motorcycle or commercial truck accidents can average $50,000 to $150,000 or higher. These figures reflect a wide range depending on injury severity, case specifics, and recent changes in California’s insurance laws that may increase settlement amounts.

Today I feel well, and I am satisfied with the settlement. I highly recommend this law firm”
