Pasadena Car Accident Lawyers
Getting into a car accident is a traumatic event. Especially if you’ve never experienced one before, it’s likely that this event will affect both your mental health as well as physical. On top of any injuries, you may also have a certain amount of property damage to handle. You’ll need the help of Pasadena car accident lawyers for your highest chance at recovering just compensation.
Here at Lerner and Rowe, our Pasadena personal injury lawyers can help you build the strongest case possible. To set up a completely free case evaluation and consultation, call 310-INJURED.
Why You Need Pasadena Car Accident Lawyers
Recovering from a car accident is almost as taxing as the car accident itself. You might break multiple bones and have a hard time getting back behind the wheel for years after the event. Plus, you need to help your kids or anyone else you care for as you transition through this difficult time. Adding a personal injury case simply isn’t in your best interests–if you handle it alone.
On the other hand, if you hand off your complicated car wreck case to an experienced personal injury attorney, that emotional burden will fall off your shoulders. In fact, we consider that to be our most valuable non-legal service, allowing our clients to focus solely on recovery.

Even though they will not pay out of pocket–their insurance company will cover the cost–your attorney will do everything they can to ensure you get a maximized rightful amount of financial compensation.

Time Limits to File an Injury Claim in California
You only have a short time to file a claim in California. This is dictated by the California statute of limitations, which says:
- Victims have two years from the date their accident occurred to file a claim, or
- Victims have one year from the date an injury was discovered to file a claim.
Don’t let this time period pass you by, or you won’t be able to receive a dime of financial compensation. Rather, contact Lerner and Rowe today and get the process started before it’s too late.
