How we work with clients in Walnut Creek

Common questions

Do you have an office in Walnut Creek?

No. We are based in San Diego and represent clients throughout California. For Walnut Creek clients, we come to your home or the hospital, or we meet by video or phone. You do not need to travel to us.

How long do I have to file a claim after an injury in Walnut Creek?

In most California personal injury cases, you have two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. If a city, county, or state agency may be responsible, a written claim usually must be presented within six months. Deadlines depend on the facts, so call us as soon as you can.

What does it cost to hire you?

Nothing up front. We work on a contingency fee, which means we are paid only if we recover money for you.

We come to you

We will meet you wherever is most convenient.

If you are recovering at home or in the hospital, you should not have to travel to see a lawyer. We will meet you at your home or in your hospital room, or we can talk by video call or phone, whichever works best for you and your family. There is no charge for the consultation.
