San Diego County Personal Injury Lawyer

San Diego County's coastal geography, military installations, and heavy I-5/I-8/SR-78 corridor traffic create distinct injury patterns. Pacific Beach, Mission Beach, and Ocean Beach see high pedestrian and bicycle accident rates. The I-805/I-5 interchange is one of the most dangerous freeway merges in Southern California.

Statute of Limitations: 2 years from date of injury (CCP § 335.1). Claims against the City of San Diego or County require a government tort claim within 6 months.
