What to Do After a Car Accident in Los Angeles

Stay at the Scene – It’s the Law
Leaving the scene of an accident in California is a serious offense under Vehicle Code §20002. Even if the damage appears minor, failing to stop can lead to criminal charges, including fines, jail time, and a suspended license. If you're involved in an accident, staying at the scene and taking the right steps is critical for protecting your rights and ensuring you have a strong legal claim.

Report the Accident Immediately
Under California Vehicle Code §16000, any accident involving injuries, fatalities, or property damage exceeding $1,000 must be reported to the California DMV within 10 days. Additionally, notifying law enforcement ensures that an official police report is filed—essential for establishing liability and preventing insurance companies from twisting the facts.

Gather Evidence – Every Detail Matters
Los Angeles traffic moves fast, and key evidence can disappear within hours. If possible, take photos of vehicle damage, road conditions, and nearby traffic signals. Speak to witnesses and obtain their contact information. The more documentation you have, the stronger your case will be. An experienced Los Angeles car accident lawyer will use this evidence to hold negligent drivers accountable.

Los Angeles Car Accident Statistics

  • Over 40,000 car accidents occur in LA County annually, making it one of the most accident-prone areas in California.
  • More than 4,500 serious injuries result from traffic collisions each year.
  • The 405 Freeway consistently ranks as one of the most dangerous highways in the United States.
  • Hit-and-run accidents account for nearly 50% of reported crashes in Los Angeles.
  • Pedestrian fatalities in LA have increased by 35% in recent years, making it one of the deadliest cities for pedestrians.

Why You Need a Car Accident Lawyer in Los Angeles

  • Insurance companies will undervalue your claim – They prioritize their profits over your recovery. We fight aggressively to secure the full compensation you deserve.
  • Comparative fault can reduce your settlement – Under California's comparative negligence law, your compensation could be reduced if you are found partially at fault. We ensure your liability is minimized.
  • Medical bills and lost wages can overwhelm you – From hospital bills to long-term rehabilitation costs, our legal team ensures that all current and future financial losses are included in your claim.

Common Causes of Car Accidents in Los Angeles

  • Speeding and reckless driving – The 405, 10, and 110 Freeways see some of the highest-speed collisions in the state.
  • Distracted driving – Texting, eating, and other distractions contribute to thousands of crashes in LA County each year.
  • Failure to yield – High-traffic intersections like Hollywood & Highland and Wilshire & Western are hotspots for accidents caused by failure to yield.
  • DUI accidents – Los Angeles has one of the highest DUI-related crash rates in California, leading to devastating injuries and fatalities.

Act Fast – You May Have Limited Time to File a Claim

Under California Code of Civil Procedure §335.1, you have only two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. However, waiting can weaken your case.

Frequently Asked Questions

No items found.

What should I do after an accident or injury?

After an accident, prioritize safety by moving to a secure location and seeking immediate medical attention, even if injuries seem minor. Document the scene by taking photos and gathering witness information, and file a police report to ensure an official record. Keep detailed records of all medical treatments and related expenses. Before speaking with insurance companies, consult a personal injury lawyer to protect your rights and ensure your claim is handled properly.

What types of compensation can I seek in a personal injury case?

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage. In severe cases, additional compensation for long-term disability or loss of quality of life may also be pursued.

How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit?

The statute of limitations for filing a personal injury lawsuit is generally two years from the date of the accident in most states. It’s important to consult with an attorney promptly to ensure your claim is filed on time.

How do I know if I have a valid personal injury claim?

To have a valid claim, you must prove that another party’s negligence caused your injury. An attorney can help assess the specifics of your case and determine the best course of action.

Will my case go to court?

Many personal injury cases are settled out of court through negotiations. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your case may proceed to court, where a judge or jury will decide the outcome.

How long does it typically take to resolve a personal injury claim?

The timeline for resolving a claim varies depending on the complexity of the case and whether it goes to trial. It could take anywhere from several months to a few years, depending on the circumstances.
