Taxi Accident claims in California

Taxi passengers and others injured in a cab crash may claim against the driver, the cab company, and its commercial insurer.

What to know

Taxi passengers and others injured in a cab crash may claim against the driver, the cab company, and its commercial insurer. 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.
