Helicopter Accident claims in California

Helicopter crashes often involve mechanical failure, pilot error, or maintenance negligence.

What to know

Helicopter crashes often involve mechanical failure, pilot error, or maintenance negligence. An experienced personal injury attorney can evaluate whether you have a claim, identify who is responsible, and deal with the insurers on your behalf.

California filing deadline

In California, the deadline to file most personal injury lawsuits is two years from the date of injury (California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1); claims against a government entity have a much shorter six-month notice window.

What an attorney costs

Most California personal injury attorneys work on contingency: no fee unless they recover money for you, and the initial consultation is typically free.
