Free, confidential, and no obligation. Fifteen minutes is usually enough to tell you whether you have a claim worth pursuing.
Serious injuries, handled seriously.
Every case starts with the same question: what actually happened, and what has it cost you?
Car Accidents
Rear-end, intersection, and highway collisions caused by distracted, speeding, or impaired drivers — including rideshare vehicles and hit-and-run claims where uninsured motorist coverage applies.
Truck & Big Rig Accidents
Collisions with commercial trucks involve federal safety regulations, several potentially liable parties, and far larger policies. Driver logs, inspection records, and telematics data disappear quickly unless they are preserved early.
Motorcycle Accidents
Riders face two problems at once: injuries that are almost always severe, and an insurance industry that starts from the assumption the rider was at fault. Left-turn and lane-change collisions need careful reconstruction.
Pedestrian & Bicycle
Crosswalk and intersection collisions, dooring incidents, and crashes involving unsafe roadway conditions. These cases often carry serious injuries and contested liability.
Slip, Trip & Fall
Injuries caused by unsafe conditions on someone else's property — unmarked hazards, poor maintenance, inadequate lighting, or repairs that were reported and ignored.
Dog Bites & Animal Attacks
California imposes strict liability on dog owners in most circumstances, which can simplify the liability question while the injuries themselves remain serious and lasting.
Wrongful Death
Claims brought by surviving family members after a death caused by another's negligence, handled with the care these matters require and clear explanation at every stage.
Uninsured & Underinsured
When the at-fault driver has no coverage or not enough of it, your own policy may respond. These claims carry their own deadlines and procedures that are easy to miss.
The clock started the day you were hurt.
Two things get worse with time: deadlines that cannot be extended, and evidence that quietly disappears. Neither one waits for you to feel ready to deal with it.
Most injury claims in California
The general deadline to bring a personal injury claim. Miss it and the case usually ends, no matter how strong it was.
If a government entity is involved
A dangerous crosswalk, a public building, a city vehicle. These generally require a written claim within six months — a window people lose without ever knowing it existed.
How long video often survives
Store surveillance, traffic cameras, and doorbell footage are routinely overwritten within days. A request to preserve it has to go out before it's gone.
Exceptions run in both directions, including different rules for minors. Finding out which deadline applies to you takes one short call and costs nothing.

At many injury firms the person who signs you up is not the person who works your file, and some clients never speak to a lawyer at all. Crest Legal APC is built the opposite way.
Cases are taken selectively so each one gets real attention. You get candid answers about what your claim is realistically worth and what it will take to get there — including the parts that are not in your favor.
- Honest valuation. No inflated promises made to get a signature.
- Clear accounting. Every fee, cost, and medical bill reviewed with you before anything is finalized.
- Straight answers. Including when the answer is that you don't have a case worth bringing.
