They kept me informed throughout the entire process,answered my all questions promptly, and fought hard. Especially, want to thanks to Alex Dariychuk who assisted me with the all the paperwork, was patient, professional and always answered my questions. His support made the process much less stressful and helped everything go smoothly. Thanks again Eason & Tambornini A Law Corporation team!
Eason & Tamborini exceeded my expectations. Kristen and the entire team treated me with respect, communicated clearly, and worked diligently to obtain the best possible outcome for my case. The process was smooth, and I always felt like my concerns were being taken seriously. Highly recommended
I found myself no longer able to work due to injuries related to my job. I was unsure of what to do. I researched a number of workers compensation firms and ended up hiring Eason and Tamborini A Law Corporation. From the first moment I sat down withJennifer Eason and Erin Sharp, they eased my mind and made me feel like I was taken care of. I received the medical attention I needed. Follow up Dr. visits protected me from further injury. While working with Jennifer and Erin, I met with their coworker Omar, who was supportive and explained the process and each legal action. In addition to my workers compensation case, he researched and recommended that I file for the SIBTF trust fund due to my complicated medical background. Other assistants at the firm was offered by Elideth and Wendy, Navigating the whole process can be intimidating, so I appreciated that both of the attorneys (Jennifer and Erin) as well as their assistants (Elideth and Wendy) kept me updated and were always very informative. I highly recommend this firm. They treat clients with dignity, actually communicate and produce results.

This team has great communication and follow up. They really represent you at a high level, and gets you the results you deserve! I highly recommend for anyone that needs legal service to got with this group!
Honestly when my case started there were a couple people at the firm who dropped the ball on my case, which was very unfortunate. However once I got Caleb and Jazmine handling my case I feel that they did way more than the last 2 that i had to deal with. Caleb and Jazmine went above and beyond to help me and my case which has been dragging for 5 years. I do recommend this law firm. Just make sure Caleb and Jazmine are assigned to your case.
I was new to this city shortly before needing their help. And when I contacted them for my injury, they felt safe and reassured me that they would have my back and support me. And they did. 5 years later and they helped me with any and all of my questions, concerns, etc. Thank you to Justin, Daisy, Caleb and the whole crew♡
Daisy, Alex & Jazmine were very attentive and made sure I was informed at all times during my case, I will definitely work with them again if I had to. They are a very professional establishment.
I had a wonderful experience at Eason & Tambornini's Law. Kyle Tambornini was my attorney. He was down to earth, friendly, and thorough. My case settled for much more than the original offer. This wouldn't have been possible without this office. If I ever need an attorney in the future, I'm calling him!
Thank you Seth and Francesca! I can't say enough great things about this law firm. They were able to accomplish more for us than even the police could, and we are so grateful for their dedication. From the very beginning, they treated both me and my husband with respect and genuine care. They kept us informed every step of the way, always making sure we felt supported and understood. Their professionalism and compassion truly set them apart, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal help.

Sacramento Car Accident Attorneys​

How much does a Sacramento car accident lawyer cost?

The car accident attorneys at Eason & Tambornini charge no upfront or out-of-pocket fees because they follow a contingency-fee model. This means, if you win, we collect a fee; if you do not win a settlement, you pay nothing.

When financial barriers are removed, we can get the discovery process underway, including securing vital evidence such as dashcam footage and police reports. We do this in addition to handling all insurance adjusters so that you can focus on healing.

Our contingency-fee approach means that all Sacramento residents can afford the very best attorneys, like our team members who hold the AV Preeminent status from Martindale-Hubbell. This national association, comprised of legal professionals, recognizes our attorneys for their outstanding legal expertise and ethical conduct.

What is the Statute of Limitations for a car accident claim in California?

The Statute of Limitations, under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 335.1, gives you two years from the date of the accident, in most cases, to file a lawsuit for personal injury. Missing this strict legal deadline may result in the permanent loss of your right to seek damages.

Can I file a car accident claim if I am partially at fault?

California operates under a pure comparative negligence model for personal injuries, including car accidents. This means the court or insurance adjuster assigns a percentage of fault to each party; your recovery reduction from your final compensation is that exact percentage of fault. So, an injured person may recover compensation even if they are up to 99% responsible for the accident. For example, if you are awarded $100,000 but are found to be 20% at fault, you still receive $80,000 for your damages.

Recovering Your Losses: Tangible vs. Intangible Damages

The proximate cause—the legal connection between the defendant’s negligence and your injuries—is critical. After careful analysis and determination, our attorneys can pursue full compensation for the following:

Tangible Losses (Economic Damages)

These are verifiable financial impacts supported by receipts and records:

  • Medical Expenses: Costs for emergency room visits, hospital stays, physical therapy, and future medical care.
  • Lost Wages: Reimbursement for past missed paychecks and the loss of future earning capacity.
  • Property Damage: The cost to repair or replace your vehicle and any personal items destroyed in the crash.

Intangible Losses (Non-Economic Damages)

These address the human element and the emotional aftermath of the accident, which do not have a fixed cost associated with them. The intangible losses may include:

  • Pain and Suffering: Compensation for physical pain, scarring, and permanent physical limitations.
  • Emotional Distress: Damages for psychological trauma such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
  • Loss of Consortium: The degree to which the accident impacts your relationship with your spouse or partner.

Common Sacramento Danger Zones for Drivers

Sacramento continues to see a high number of traffic accidents on its roads and highways. As of early 2026, fatality rates were already in the double digits. Our firm monitors high-velocity accident trends on corridors such as:

  • High-Injury Intersections: Known hazard zones like Northgate Boulevard and Garden Highway in the North Sacramento area.
  • Dangerous Corridors: The J Street corridor, Greenback Lane, and Madison Avenue thoroughfares are notoriously problematic for congestion and traffic accidents.
  • Freeway and Highway Hazards: Multiple-vehicle pileups are common on Interstate 80, Interstate 5, and regional highways such as SR-99, all of which intersect at various points in Sacramento.

For immediate medical evaluation, local trauma resources include the UC Davis Medical Center emergency department or Mercy San Juan Medical Center.

A note about visiting UC Davis Medical Center: As the only Level 1 Trauma Center in the valley region, traffic is heavy. To avoid congestion near the hospital entrance, use the dedicated emergency room parking entrance off 45th Street.

Resource Guide for Sacramento County Superior Court

Accidents can occur anywhere in Sacramento, but legal proceedings are centralized under the Sacramento County Superior Court.

  • Courthouse: Gordon D. Schaber Sacramento County Courthouse
  • Address: 720 9th Street, Sacramento, CA 95814
  • Civil Division Phone: (916) 874-5522
  • Hours of Operation: Monday – Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM
  • Parking Recommendation: The City Hall Garage at 10th and I Streets, or metered street parking on 9th Street, is the most convenient option for the courthouse. Be wary of the small private lots on nearby streets adjacent to the courts, as rates are high.
  • Security Tip: The Sacramento Superior Court requires that all visitors pass through a weapons screening and bag check. For this reason, in addition to parking challenges, leave plenty of time to find a metered parking spot so you can arrive at the courthouse entrance at least 30 minutes before your hearing. Security lines in the morning are often long.

What to Do: Immediate Steps After a Sacramento Car Accident

Insurance companies move fast after a car accident. This is not out of respect for you, but because they want to make a low offer to entice you to settle early. Protect your claim by following these steps:

  1. Don’t record any statements: If your attorney has not given you the green light, refuse insurance adjusters’ requests to record a statement.
  2. Preserve all evidence: Keep your documents safe: emergency room discharge papers, police reports, and medical records will be critical during the discovery process, when fault will be determined.
  3. Consult a professional: Having a skilled legal expert evaluate the actual value of your case under pure comparative negligence standards is crucial. If you do bear some responsibility, you don’t want your recovery reduction to be one dollar more than what is necessary.
  4. Try to recover police reports: To secure your official record, visit the Sacramento Police Department NextRequest Portal or the Sheriff’s Records Portal (for accidents occurring outside of Sacramento City limits).
