We were recommended to Eason & Tambornini by my brother-in-law after he had a great experience with them, and we're glad we reached out. We worked with Eric and Francesca, who were both incredibly nice to work with, responsive, patient, and always helpful throughout the entire process. They took care of everything for us and made the whole experience as easy and stress-free as possible. I also really appreciated that there were no upfront costs and that their payment was simply taken out of the final settlement. We had a great experience overall and would definitely recommend them.
Worked with them for a car accident and I was satisfied with the professionalism and the persistence of standing up for me. Would recommend!
We are incredibly grateful for everything this firm did for my dad. They guided us through the entire process, took the time to explain everything, and made a difficult situation much easier to navigate. A special shout-out to Alex for always taking our calls, being patient, and making sure my dad understood everything, especially since English isn’t his first language. We truly appreciate all the hard work and dedication. Highly recommend!
My family and I worked with Eason & Tambornini after a car accident and I’m so grateful we found them. The aftermath of the accident was stressful and overwhelming but from the moment we reached out they were there to support us. I especially want to recognize Francesca. She was absolutely wonderful to work with—always easy to communicate with, incredibly helpful, and most importantly so understanding and compassionate. She made everything feel manageable without ever making us feel overwhelmed. Her kindness and genuine care really stood out to us. I appreciate their hard work and dedication to our case & I would absolutely recommend Eason & Tambornini.
I was injured in a hit and run accident which left me in a state of shock. I called Eason and Tambornini. Within a few days, I was visited by Chris and assured they would be with me all the way. By the time I met Kristen, she was well into processing and compiling documents and clearly assured me I would receive the best of care. I felt full inclusion from day one. You can trust the team at Eason Tambornini for all your needs. Thanks to you
Mine was a difficult case involving 4 separate insurance companies. My attorney was patient, persistent, knowledgeable, firm, and resourceful. Excellent - well pleased!
Everyone was very easy to talk to, friendly and helpful.
The SIBTF Process I needed to stop working because of job related injuries. After receiving my workers compensation settlement, I worried about getting another job that could supplement my retirement. Staff at Eason & Tamborini explained that I might be eligible for the SIBTF program. SIBTF is a complicated process. Eason & Tamborini walked me through the requirements and handled the paperwork. It was worth the wait. They kept me updated regarding new developments. When a settlement was reached, I was surprised to learn that I would not have to take on a new job to supplement my retirement. The SIBTF checks I receive each month are a huge help. Special thanks to Omar, Erin, Elideth, Miraslav, Wendy and others who worked hard to make this possible. Thank you.
Very professional and friendly experience. Will use and recommend this law firm for any future needs. Rando Rodriguez is truly the best and all of his associates as well.
I really want to emphasize how incredible this team is, from Seth - the lawyer who handled my case, Becca the legal assistant or Michelle who I believe was apart of the support staff; the same result every time: incredible communication and follow through. From the moment that I met Seth, he was clear on what his role was, How the case would proceed forward, And gave clear guidance on what I should do. He explained the legal theory around the case, And as a result, resolved my matter getting more than 200% more than we had expected. To say that he was a great lawyer would be an understatement. He was also an incredible human. His story and called to action for why he got into this business resonate throughout his work. I would recommend anyone use this firm if you find yourself in any personal injury related matter. Thank you again Eason and Torbornini. And thank you Seth.

How much does a Sacramento construction accident lawyer cost?

sacramento construction accident attorneySacramento construction accident attorneys at Eason & Tambornini handle injury cases on a contingency fee contract, meaning there are zero upfront costs; you pay nothing out of pocket. Our legal fees are paid strictly as a percentage of your final insurance settlement, workers’ comp award, or court verdict.

What is the statute of limitations for a construction accident claim in Sacramento?

The statute of limitations under California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1 is clear: You have two years to file a third-party negligence lawsuit. However, basic workers’ compensation claims often require you to notify your employer within 30 days, making immediate legal action critical.

What is the difference between tangible and intangible losses for injured workers?

Tangible losses come with receipts, like emergency room bills, X-ray invoices, and documented lost wages from missed work. Intangible losses do not. These types of damages compensate for subjective, personal losses without a fixed price tag and are therefore harder to calculate. They include permanent physical pain, emotional trauma, and loss of life quality.

Protecting Against the “Mortgage and Rent Gap” Trap

Insurance adjusters know you have a gap between your income and your bills after an accident that has left you unable to work. They may delay your claim on purpose to entice you to accept a lowball offer—one that doesn’t come close to covering your long-term expenses. We will protect you against this trap.

Under California law, you generally cannot sue your direct employer for a job accident; your basic remedy is limited to workers’ compensation benefits. However, if your injury was caused by a careless general contractor, a separate subcontractor, a property owner, or a faulty equipment manufacturer, you can file a “Third-Party Liability” claim.

High-Risk Local Worksite Settings

Construction workers face physically threatening environments daily, with electrocutions, falls, machinery accidents, and being struck by an object among the deadliest. In fact, the construction industry consistently drives roughly 17% of all occupational fatalities in California. With ongoing local growth, serious accidents happen regularly across several major Sacramento construction zones:

  • Commercial Property Sites: Crane failures, electrical injuries, and high-altitude falls at major commercial sites near Golden One Arena and Downtown Sacramento.
  • Industrial and Transit Corridors: Heavy equipment accidents and OSHA violations in the industrial neighborhoods bordering Jefferson and Harbor Boulevards.
  • Suburban Housing Developments: Trench collapses and tool accidents within the expanding residential subdivisions off Arena Boulevard, Rancho Cordova, and East Roseville Parkway.

Sacramento Resources for Medical & Legal Help

Getting an immediate medical exam is the most important step to protect your health and to establish clear legal causation with an insurance company.

Sacramento County Civil Court Resources

If a negligent third party refuses to offer a fair settlement that covers your lifelong injuries, we will carry your case directly to the local civil court system.

  • Courthouse Name: Tani G. Cantil-Sakauye Courthouse 
  • Street Address: 500 G Street, Sacramento, CA 95814
  • Civil Clerk’s Office Phone: (916) 874-5522
  • Operating Hours: Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM

Pro Parking Tip: Avoid the highly inflated prices of private parking lots directly next to the courthouse building, which usually fill up completely before the early morning rush. Instead, park at the secure municipal City Hall Garage located at 10th and I Streets.

Courthouse Security Alert: Every visitor must clear the mandatory weapons screening at the main doors. Make sure to arrive at least 45 minutes early for your scheduled appearance. The 2026 morning calendar calls are extremely crowded, and walking in late will not help your case.

Do not let a quick insurance check or confusing employer paperwork keep you from the full compensation you are legally owed.
