Frequently asked questions

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

No firms are listed in San Mateo, California yet. Attorneys in nearby cities and elsewhere in California handle burn injury cases across the state — burn and fire cases are routinely litigated statewide rather than city by city.

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.
