What is the statute of limitations for a Folsom personal injury claim?

In California, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, if your claim involves a government entity, the deadline is often much shorter. Missing these strict legal cutoff dates results in the total loss of your right to recover compensation.

What is the difference between tangible and intangible losses?

Tangible losses are quantifiable financial costs, such as medical bills and lost wages, that are supported by receipts. Intangible losses cover the injuries you can easily see, but are serious nonetheless. These may include pain, suffering, and emotional and/or mental trauma following a crash. Our attorneys calculate both tangible and intangible losses so insurance adjusters can’t ignore your actual quality of life.

What are the high-risk intersections in Folsom outside of the main bridges?

Bridge crossings are well-known bottlenecks, but other documented danger zones, as indicated in the Folsom Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP), are plentiful in the Folsom area. According to local traffic safety data, the following intersections see many severe injury crashes each year:

• Bidwell Street & Iron Point Road: A major arterial junction with high commuter volume and frequent left-turn accidents. Rapid residential expansion in the neighborhood has led to a massive increase in traffic through this popular shopping and commercial corridor.
• Prairie City Road & Iron Point Road: A critical point for vehicles entering and exiting the commercial centers, often prone to rear-end collisions during peak afternoon hours and after the local high school releases.
• Riley Street & Natoma Street: A high-density area near the historic district where pedestrian conflicts and lane departure incidents are more common.
