Glenn County Personal Injury Lawyer
Glenn County is one of California's most agricultural counties, with rice, wheat, and orchard farming dominating the economy. I-5 through Willows and Orland carries heavy commercial truck traffic and is a frequent site of rear-end collisions, lane-change accidents, and truck rollovers. SR-32 (the Chico-Corning Road) is a two-lane rural highway with limited sight lines and no shoulders in many sections. Agricultural worker injuries — including tractor rollovers, pesticide exposure, irrigation equipment accidents, and falls from ladders during harvest — are among the most common personal injury claims in Glenn County. Seriously injured victims are transported to Enloe Medical Center in Chico (Level II Trauma Center), approximately 25 miles south.
Statute of Limitations: 2 years from date of injury (CCP § 335.1). If Glenn County, Caltrans, or a city (Willows, Orland) caused or contributed to your injury, you must file a Government Tort Claim within 6 months of the incident (Government Code § 912.4). For agricultural worker injuries, the 30-day reporting requirement and 1-year workers' comp filing deadline (Labor Code § 5405) apply. Farm labor contractors and growers are jointly liable for worker injuries under Labor Code § 2810.3. Contact HellaHurt immediately after any injury in Glenn County.
