Frequently asked questions

How many burn injury attorneys are listed in San Diego, California?

This directory lists 6 firms serving San Diego, California. Listing facts come from firm websites or from the firms themselves.

How long do I have to file a burn injury lawsuit in California?

The California statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is 2 years (Cal. Code Civ. Proc. § 335.1). Claims against a government body usually run on a much shorter separate notice deadline. Missing either one generally ends the claim regardless of its merits, so the filing date matters more than almost any other early decision.
