I had the pleasure of discussing my case with their attorney, Mark Steinberg. He helped me understand the process and what to expect moving forward. He, patiently, took the time necessary to answer all of my questions. His expertise was evident....all the way, a pleasant and knowledgeable individual !!

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.

How much does a Sacramento car accident lawyer cost?

Sacramento car accident attorneys at Eason & Tambornini handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee contract, meaning there are no upfront costs and you pay nothing out of pocket. Our legal fees are paid strictly as a percentage taken from your final successful insurance settlement or court verdict.

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

Under California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1, you have a strict two-year deadline from the exact date of the auto accident to file a formal lawsuit. Missing this statutory window creates a permanent bar to recovery, wiping out your legal right to pursue compensation from the at-fault driver.

What is the difference between tangible and intangible losses after a car crash?

One way to think about tangible losses is this: Can they be calculated with receipts and supported by paperwork? Examples are emergency room bills and documented lost wages from missed work. Intangible losses, on the other hand, compensate for subjective, non-economic damages that do not have a fixed receipt. These might include persistent physical pain, emotional stress, and loss of life quality.

Handling the Stress of the “Mortgage Gap” and Fault Rules

When a serious wreck damages your health and deprives you of transportation, you may experience an immediate financial strain known as the mortgage gap. Even though you are missing work to attend medical appointments, everyday living expenses, rent, and household bills keep coming. Car insurance adjusters know this; they often stretch out the payout process to make you feel desperate enough to accept a low settlement offer.

Pure Comparative Negligence in California

To make matters tougher, California uses a system called pure comparative negligence. This means the insurance company’s defense lawyers will try to shift a percentage of the blame onto you. They might claim you were speeding on Greenback Lane or changed lanes too fast on J Street, which may have increased the amount of damage to your vehicle or caused more severe injuries than if you hadn’t been speeding. Under these fault rules, if a court decides you were 25% responsible for the accident, your final financial recovery is slashed by 25%. Our attorneys work to keep your assigned fault at zero so you keep the maximum amount of money you deserve.

High-Traffic Corridors and Common Crash Variables

With heavy local commuting patterns well established in Sacramento and distracted-driving habits, certain Sacramento intersections and freeways see a massive number of severe impacts every day. Our legal team routinely investigates liability and gathers evidence for crashes caused by speeding, tailgating, and driving under the influence across these primary areas:

Interstate 5 and Highway 99 Interchange: A major highway merge point prone to high-speed rear-end collisions and multi-vehicle chain-reaction wrecks.
Downtown Grid (J Street and Surrounding Blocks): High-congestion streets where distracted driving leads to severe side-impact (T-bone) crashes and pedestrian accidents.
Suburban Corridors (Greenback Ln., Sunrise Blvd., Galleria Blvd.): Wide, fast-moving retail roads where failure-to-yield turns cause major head-on or rollover collisions.
Northgate Boulevard and Garden Highway: Areas where sudden changes in road conditions and tight lane setups frequently lead to single-vehicle run-offs and barrier impacts.

Sacramento Medical & Legal Infrastructure

Building a successful injury claim requires creating a detailed medical record immediately after the crash to establish clear legal causation with the insurance company.

Emergency & Medical Care Facilities

UC Davis Medical Center (Level 1 Trauma): 2315 Stockton Blvd, Sacramento,CA 95817

Sutter Medical Center: 2825 Capitol Ave., Sacramento, CA 95816

Kaiser Permanente Sacramento Medical Center: 2025 Morse Ave, Sacramento, CA 95825

Sacramento County Civil Court Logistics

Most auto injury claims are settled directly with the insurance companies out of court. However, if the insurer refuses to cover your medical costs or lost wages fairly, we file a formal lawsuit in the local court system.

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

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

Security & Court Scheduling Alert: Every visitor must clear weapons screening at the main doors. Make sure to give yourself at least a 45-minute time buffer before your scheduled appearance. Because of recent structural changes, the 2026 morning calendar calls are highly crowded, and walking in late can hurt your standing with the judge.

Eason & Tambornini is located in Sacramento, where our personal injury lawyers have negotiated and tried local personal injury and wrongful death claims since 1996.
