Which agency has your report
On Salinas streets, it's usually Salinas Police, whose reports can be bought online about 10 to 15 days after the accident. On Highway 101 and roads outside city limits, it's usually the CHP: its Monterey Area office on East Blanco Road, its King City office south of Soledad, and its Santa Cruz and Hollister-Gilroy offices in those counties. Most other cities have their own police. Not sure? Any of them can tell you.
Symptoms can show up later
Neck and back injuries and concussions don't always hurt right away. If something feels off in the days after, it's worth getting checked, even if you were already seen at the scene or in the ER.
Your records are yours
Wherever you were treated, from Natividad Medical Center in Salinas, Monterey County's only trauma center, to Salinas Valley Health, Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula or Watsonville Community Hospital, you have a right to copies of your medical and billing records, even with a bill unpaid. Keep them together with your receipts.
The DMV has its own 10-day rule
If anyone was injured in a vehicle accident, 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.
Quick offers are usually final
The other side's insurance company may call within days, ask to record your account or offer a check. Accepting a settlement usually closes the claim for good, even if your injuries turn out worse than they first seemed.
Public agencies have shorter deadlines
Most injury lawsuits in California must be filed within two years. If an MST bus, a city or county vehicle or a road hazard was involved, a written claim to the City of Salinas (or your own city or county), Monterey County, MST or Caltrans is usually due within six months.

Common questionsfrom people injured in Salinas.

Do you have an office in Salinas?

Yes. Our office is at 30 E. San Joaquin St, Suite 203-A, Salinas, CA 93901, in south Salinas just off South Main Street. You're welcome to come in, but you don't have to: call us 24/7 at (800) 985-9565 and we can meet you at your home or in the hospital.

What does it cost to hire you?

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.

How long do I have to file a claim?

In California you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. If a public agency may be responsible, such as the City of Salinas or your own city, Monterey County, MST or Caltrans, a claim usually has to be filed within six months. Call us early so no deadline passes.

The insurance company already made me an offer. Should I take it?

Talk to us before you accept. In one of our car accident cases, the best offer before we stepped in was $410,000. We won $4.4 million. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.

Do you take cases outside Salinas?

Yes. We take cases from across Monterey County, from Castroville and Prunedale to Monterey, Seaside, Soledad and King City, and from Watsonville and Hollister. Our San Jose office is closer to Santa Cruz and Scotts Valley. Wherever you are in California, if you can't come to us, we'll come to you.
