What Should I Do If I’ve Been Injured In San Francisco?
The first thing you should do after being injured is to seek medical attention. It is vital that you do this as soon as possible. Insurance companies can exploit any delay in treatment by claiming that your serious injuries were caused by something other than the negligence of their insured.
Gather documentation and evidence regarding your injury and the circumstances around it. Take photographs from multiple angles of the injury scene and your injuries. Get the contact information of any witnesses. Get the contact and insurance information of anyone responsible for your injuries. Write a detailed description of the injury and the circumstances around it as soon as possible while it’s fresh in your memory to help you with future recollection.
Keep talk with others to a minimum, including those at the scene of the injury, and especially other parties’ insurance companies. Don’t talk to other parties’ insurance companies at all. Insurance companies are experts at tricking people into accidentally admitting fault for injuries.
Contact an experienced personal injury lawyer so you won’t have to worry about accidentally incriminating yourself while dealing with insurance companies. Insurance companies won’t respect you without a lawyer, so they won’t offer you a fair settlement and they will dare you to take them to court if you don’t have a lawyer. Insurance companies are much more willing to offer fair settlements to those represented by experienced personal injury law firms like Nadrich Accident Injury Lawyers. You can call our legal team for a free consultation if you’ve been injured in San Francisco.
San Francisco Personal Injury Laws
Negligence is at the heart of almost any personal injury lawsuit. Juries in San Francisco (and the entire state of California) are instructed that negligence is failing to be reasonably careful to prevent harm from occurring. One is negligent when they don’t do what a reasonably careful person would do in the same situation. One is negligent when they do what a reasonably careful person would not do in the same situation.
Anyone who injures another person in California by being negligent is liable for that person’s injuries.
The thing we do best at Nadrich Accident Injury Lawyers is proving that our clients’ injuries were caused by someone else’s negligence. This is how we generally obtain fair compensation for our clients’ injuries.

What If Someone Else’s Negligence Caused My Existing Injury To Get Worse?
Causation is key in a personal injury case. Causation essentially means who caused your injury to occur.
Preexisting injuries can sometimes be aggravated by the negligence of others. It can be difficult to prove causation in these cases, since insurance companies may claim that your injury was merely preexisting and not aggravated by the negligence of their insured.
For example, if you try to claim damages for a surgery necessitated by someone else’s negligence, an insurance company may try to argue that surgery would have been necessary anyways due to your preexisting injury.
Luckily, we’ve been representing personal injury clients in San Francisco for over three decades and have developed relationships with the finest experts in the Bay Area; experts who can prove your injury was aggravated by someone else’s negligence.

Accident Reconstruction Experts: These are the experts who can prove that your injuries were caused by someone else’s negligence, such as, for example, speeding which leads to motor vehicle accidents.
What If I’m Partially At Fault For My Own Injuries?
You can still recover financial compensation for your injuries in California if you were partially at fault for your injuries, as long as someone else’s negligence is also partially to blame for your injuries.
California is a pure comparative negligence state. This means that if you are found to be partially at fault for an accident, the damages you can recover are reduced by your percentage of fault for the accident. Thus, if you are found to be 20 percent at fault for an accident, your damages will simply be reduced by 20 percent. In this case, if you suffer $100,000 worth of damages, you will be eligible to recover $80,000 in damages, as $20,000, or 20 percent, will be reduced from your damages since you were 20 percent at fault for the accident.
How Long Do I Have To File A Personal Injury Lawsuit?
In most cases, you have two years from the date of your injuries to file a personal injury lawsuit. This time limit is known as a statute of limitations.
Failure to file a lawsuit within this time period can forever bar you from obtaining financial compensation for your injuries.
If you’ve been injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault, it’s best to contact experienced personal injury lawyers like Nadrich Accident Injury Lawyers as soon as possible to give them as much time as possible to ensure that all paperwork is filed in a timely manner. Personal injury cases are complex and time-consuming, so every little bit of time helps.
Do I Have A Personal Injury Case?
You are entitled to financial compensation for your injuries in California if your injuries were caused by someone else’s negligence. Thus, you have a case if your injuries were caused by someone else’s negligence.
If you are unsure if you have a case, call us today for a free consultation. We can explain to you if you have a case or not, and, if need be, we can investigate the circumstances surrounding your accident to determine if someone else’s negligence was responsible for your injuries.
Do I Have A Case If I Don’t Think I’m Hurt?
If you have recently been in an accident, you may be hurt and not realize it. Some injuries don’t result in symptoms for weeks or even months. This is why it is important to always seek medical attention as soon as possible after any accident. A healthcare provider can tell you if you have any injuries which you may be eligible to be compensated for in a personal injury case.
What Should I Do If The Other Party’s Insurance Company Calls Me?
Don’t talk to them. Hire experienced personal injury lawyers like Nadrich Accident Injury Lawyers instead and let them talk to them for you. Insurance adjusters are trained to manipulate you into saying things they can use to reduce your payout. It is dangerous for you to talk to the other party’s insurance company. Let an attorney do that for you instead.
