Here to protect your interests, not the insurance company's

Insurance companies have a team.You should have one too.

Insurers bring adjusters, investigators and lawyers to every serious claim, and they value claims to control cost, not to make you whole. After a crash on Highway 99, Golden State Boulevard or Manning Avenue, an adjuster may call within days, and what you say can shape the rest of your claim.

Before you sign anything, ask yourself:

  1. Was the crash caused by someone else's carelessness?
  2. Were you injured, or was your car badly damaged?
  3. Will the settlement cover your treatment and lost income months from now, not just today?

Why the first offer is not the final word

The insurer's best offer$410,000

What we won for our client$4.4M

A car accident that left our client with a neck injury. Most people would have taken the offer. We won more than ten times as much.

Past results do not guarantee future outcomes, and each case is different.

What you can recover aftera California car accident.

California is an at-fault state: the driver who caused the crash, and their insurance company, pay for what it cost you.

Economic damages

The costs you can add up

  • Emergency care, surgery and hospital bills
  • Physical therapy and rehabilitation
  • Lost wages and lost earning capacity
  • Repairing or replacing your vehicle

Non-economic damages

The harm that has no receipt

  • Pain and physical suffering
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Loss of companionship
  • Lost enjoyment of life
  • $30,000The minimum injury coveragePolicies issued or renewed since January 1, 2025 must cover at least $30,000 per person and $60,000 per accident (Vehicle Code §16056). Serious injuries often cost far more.
  • 1 in 5California drivers had no insurance in 2023About 20%, according to the Insurance Research Council. If one hit you, your own uninsured motorist coverage may pay.
  • 80%What you keep if you were 20% at faultCalifornia's pure comparative fault rule reduces your award by your share of the blame instead of erasing it.

After a crash in Fowler,what comes next.

The crash report, the DMV, your car, insurance calls and deadlines, explained.

Valero Law Group attorneys meeting around a conference table
  • Getting the crash report
    On Highway 99 through Fowler, the CHP's Fresno office usually takes the report, and you can request it online. On city streets like Golden State Boulevard or Merced Street, it's usually Fowler Police: ask with the department's request form, and allow at least ten working days.
  • If your car was towed
    Storage fees add up every day after the first 24 hours. You can take your belongings out and have your insurer inspect the car for free, and picking it up within 72 hours avoids a lien fee. If Fowler Police had it towed, call the department at (559) 834-3254 on a weekday to find out which yard has it.
  • The DMV has its own 10-day rule
    If anyone was injured, even slightly, or damage tops $1,000, each driver must file form SR-1 with the DMV within 10 days, no matter who was at fault and even if police made a report.
  • The insurer has deadlines too
    The other driver's insurance company must acknowledge your claim within 15 days, then accept or deny it within 40 days of receiving proof, or explain in writing why it needs more time (California claim rules).
  • A rental car can be part of the claim
    If another driver caused the crash, the reasonable cost of renting a similar car while yours is repaired or replaced can be included as loss of use.
  • Public agencies have shorter deadlines
    Most injury lawsuits must be filed within two years. If a city or county vehicle, a public bus or a hazard on Highway 99 was involved, a written claim to the City of Fowler, Fresno County, the transit agency or the state is usually due within six months.

Common questionsafter a Fowler car accident.

How long do I have to file a car accident claim in California?
Most injury lawsuits must be filed within two years of the crash (Code of Civil Procedure §335.1). If a city, county or state vehicle or road was involved, a written claim is usually due within six months. Call us early so no deadline slips by.
Should I give the other driver's insurance company a recorded statement?
You aren't required to give one to the other driver's insurer, and what you say can be used to value your claim. It's fine to tell the adjuster you'll call back after you've talked to a lawyer. Your own policy may require you to cooperate with your own insurance company.
Who pays my medical bills while my case is open?
Usually your own health insurance, or the medical payments (Med-Pay) coverage on your auto policy if you have it, pays as bills come in. Those payers are generally reimbursed from the settlement. If you have no coverage, some doctors will treat you and wait to be paid until the case ends.
Can I report a crash in Fowler online?
No. Call 911, or the non-emergency dispatch line at (559) 600-3111; Fowler Police don't take crash reports online. On Highway 99, the CHP responds.
How long does a car accident case take?
It depends mostly on your medical treatment: a claim is usually valued once treatment ends or your doctors know the long-term outlook. Many cases settle without a lawsuit. If one has to be filed in Fresno County Superior Court, it takes longer.
How much is my Fowler car accident case worth?
It depends on your injuries, your medical bills, lost income and the long-term effect on your life. The first offer is often low, so a free case review is the best way to know before you accept anything.
Do you have an office in Fowler?
No. Our nearest office is in Fresno, at 1401 Fulton St, Suite 905, about 11 miles from Fowler City Hall. You're welcome to come in, but you don't have to: call us 24/7 at (800) 985-9565 and we'll meet you at your home or in the hospital.
What does a car accident lawyer cost?
Nothing upfront. Your consultation is free, and no attorney's fees are owed unless we recover compensation for you. You may be responsible for case-related costs and expenses; we'll explain them before you sign.
