Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a personal injury lawyer in Torrance cost?
Most Torrance injury firms work on a contingency fee, so you pay nothing upfront. The lawyer collects a percentage only if your claim recovers money. Initial consultations are almost always free.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?
California gives most injury victims two years from the date of the accident under Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1. Claims against a public entity face a much shorter six-month notice window. Acting early protects evidence and witness memory.
Is the filing deadline different for a California mesothelioma claim?
Asbestos claims often use the discovery rule, since symptoms can appear decades after exposure. The two-year clock generally starts when the disease is diagnosed, not when exposure occurred. A specialized firm can confirm your deadline.
