Personal Injury Attorneys
California Car Accident Lawyers
Car accidents can change your life in an instant. Medical bills pile up, lost wages strain your finances, and the physical and emotional toll can be overwhelming. At Mousavi Law, we fight aggressively for victims of negligent drivers to ensure you receive the full compensation you deserve.
What We Handle
Common Causes & Scenarios
Distracted Driving
Texting, phone use, eating, or any activity that takes attention away from the road. Distracted driving is now a leading cause of accidents in California.
Speeding
Excessive speed reduces reaction time and increases the severity of crashes. Speeding drivers are more likely to lose control and cause catastrophic injuries.
Drunk or Impaired Driving
Alcohol and drugs impair judgment, reaction time, and motor skills. DUI accidents often result in serious injuries or fatalities.
Reckless Driving
Aggressive behaviors like tailgating, weaving through traffic, and running red lights put everyone on the road at risk.
Poor Weather Conditions
Rain, fog, and other weather conditions require drivers to adjust their behavior. Failure to do so can result in serious accidents.
Vehicle Defects
Faulty brakes, tire blowouts, or other mechanical failures can cause drivers to lose control. Manufacturers may be held liable for defective products.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do immediately after a car accident?
First, ensure everyone's safety and call 911. Document the scene with photos and exchange information with other drivers. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine—some injuries don't manifest immediately. Report the accident to your insurance company but avoid giving recorded statements until you've consulted an attorney. Contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to protect your rights.
How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in California?
In California, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that may shorten or extend this deadline. It's crucial to consult with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure you don't miss any important deadlines.
What compensation can I receive for my car accident injuries?
You may be entitled to economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, property damage, future medical care) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life). In cases involving extreme negligence, punitive damages may also be available.
What if the other driver doesn't have insurance?
If you have uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage, you can file a claim with your own insurance company. We can help you navigate this process and explore all available options for compensation.
Do I need a lawyer for a car accident claim?
While you can handle a claim yourself, insurance companies often offer low settlements to unrepresented individuals. An experienced attorney can negotiate on your behalf, handle complex legal procedures, and significantly increase the value of your claim.
