What Our Clients Say

The settlement was more than I could have received on my own and the fact that I could hand it all over to him to resolve was without a doubt worth it! It was the best decision I ever made throughout this process.

Common Questions

Car Accident Lawyer FAQs

How much does it cost to hire a car accident lawyer?
Frank Penney Injury Law works on a contingency basis. You pay nothing up front and no fee unless we win your case. Free consultations are available 24/7 by phone at (888) 888-0566 or in person at any of our 6 California offices. We can also come to your home or hospital if you're unable to travel.
How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in California?
California's statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. There are exceptions — for example, claims against government entities have a much shorter window (often six months to file a claim). The safest course is to contact a Sacramento car accident lawyer as soon as possible so evidence is preserved and deadlines are met.
What should I do immediately after a car accident in Sacramento?
First, get to safety and call 911 if anyone is injured. Document the scene with photos, exchange information with the other driver, and identify witnesses. Get checked by a doctor even if you feel fine — many injuries appear hours or days later. Avoid giving recorded statements to the other driver's insurance company before speaking with a car accident attorney.
How much is my car accident case worth?
Case value depends on the severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and whether the at-fault driver's insurance is sufficient. Cases involving serious injuries can settle for hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. Frank Penney Injury Law has recovered over $1 Billion for clients. Get a free case review to learn what your specific car wreck claim may be worth.
Should I accept the insurance company's first settlement offer?
Almost never. Insurance companies routinely make low first offers hoping injured drivers will accept before they understand the full extent of their damages. Future medical care, lost earning capacity, and long-term effects are often undervalued. Have an experienced auto accident lawyer review any offer before you sign.
What if the other driver was uninsured or fled the scene?
If you have uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage on your own policy, that coverage may pay your damages. Hit-and-run cases also typically fall under UM coverage. We help clients navigate UM claims and pursue every available source of recovery, including investigating whether the at-fault driver can be identified after the fact.
Can I still get compensation if I was partially at fault?
Yes. California follows pure comparative negligence, meaning you can recover damages even if you were partly at fault — your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. A driver who is 30% at fault can still recover 70% of their damages. Insurance companies often try to inflate a claimant's percentage of fault to reduce payouts; this is one of the most important reasons to have a lawyer.
How long does a car accident case typically take to resolve?
Straightforward cases with clear liability and modest injuries can resolve in a few months. Serious-injury or disputed-liability cases often take a year or more, especially if litigation is required. We move cases as quickly as the medical picture and the insurance company allow — we don't settle prematurely just to close a file.
Do I have to go to court for a car accident claim?
Most car accident cases settle without a trial. We file a lawsuit when the insurance company refuses to offer fair value, but even after filing, the case usually settles before reaching a jury. When a trial is necessary, our 30+ years of trial experience put us in a strong position to take cases all the way through.
Can I afford a car accident lawyer if I'm not working due to my injuries?
Yes. Our contingency fee structure means you pay nothing out of pocket. We advance the costs of investigating and pursuing your case, and we only collect a fee if we recover money for you. If you can't travel to our office because of your injuries, we make home and hospital visits anywhere in Northern California.
