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 14, Pearblossom Highway or Palmdale Boulevard, 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.

I was involved in an auto accident, and I had no idea what to do. I called the Valero Law Group, and they asked a few questions; within moments they took my case. I was so relieved. I was on the verge of breaking down, but the law firm was so respectful and helpful that I didn't have to do anything.

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 Palmdale,what comes next.

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

Valero Law Group attorneys meeting around a conference table
  • Getting the crash report
    On Palmdale streets, deputies from the Palmdale Sheriff's Station take the report. Call the station first to ask whether it has yours; if not, it comes from the Sheriff's records bureau at (562) 345-4441. On Highway 14, and on roads outside city limits such as Pearblossom Highway through Littlerock, it's the CHP's Antelope Valley office, and you can request its report online.
  • If your car was towed
    Ask the Sheriff's station on Avenue Q, open 24 hours, where your car is. For a tow in Palmdale, the City's towing page says the registered owner pays a $93 release fee there in person, then takes the receipt to the tow yard; someone else needs the registration and a notarized letter from the owner. Storage adds up every day, and picking it up within 72 hours avoids a lien fee.
  • 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 an AVTA bus, a city or county vehicle or a hazard on Highway 14 or 138 was involved, a written claim to the City of Palmdale (or your own city), LA County, AVTA or Caltrans is usually due within six months. A Sheriff's patrol car belongs to the County, not the City.

Common questionsafter a Palmdale 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.
What if the driver who hit me had no insurance, or not enough?
The uninsured motorist (UM) coverage on your own policy may pay for your injuries, and underinsured (UIM) coverage may help when the other driver's limits are too low. California limits rate increases for accidents you didn't cause (Insurance Code §491).
What if it was a hit-and-run?
Report it to the Sheriff's station or the CHP right away. Your own uninsured motorist coverage may pay for your injuries, even if the driver is never found. Our California hit-and-run page explains the rest.
What if I was a passenger, or in an Uber or Lyft?
Passengers are rarely at fault, so a passenger can usually claim against the insurance of whichever driver caused the crash. In a rideshare, the company's insurance may apply as well; see our California Uber and Lyft accident page.
How much is my Palmdale 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 Palmdale?
Yes. Our office is at 1543 East Palmdale Blvd #L, Palmdale, CA 93550, near 15th Street East. Come in if you like, or we'll come to you, at home or in the hospital. Call (800) 985-9565 any time, 24/7.
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.
