What to Do After a Serious Injury in San Bernardino
After a serious injury, the steps taken early can affect both medical care and the legal claim.
Consider taking the following steps:
- Get medical care immediately.
Prompt treatment protects your health and documents the injury. - Report the incident.
Depending on the case, report the crash, fall, dog bite, unsafe condition, or injury to the appropriate authority, business, property owner, facility, or agency. - Take photographs and video.
Document injuries, vehicles, property conditions, road conditions, hazards, dog bite wounds, damaged property, and anything else that may matter. - Identify witnesses.
Get names and contact information from anyone who saw what happened. - Preserve evidence.
Save photographs, medical records, bills, damaged clothing, incident reports, insurance communications, text messages, emails, and notes. - Avoid rushing into settlement.
The full extent of injuries, future care, and available insurance may not be clear immediately. - Speak with an attorney promptly.
Early legal review can help preserve evidence, identify responsible parties, and protect important deadlines.

Frequently Asked Questions About San Bernardino Personal Injury Cases
Disclaimer: This information is general and is not legal advice.
Do I need a lawyer after a serious injury in San Bernardino?
If the injury is serious, liability is disputed, insurance coverage is unclear, a public entity may be involved, or future medical care may be needed, it is usually worth getting legal review before speaking extensively with insurance companies or accepting a settlement.

Yes. The Mason Firm is based in San Diego and offers appointments in San Bernardino by request. Meetings are available by appointment only.
What types of San Bernardino injury cases does The Mason Firm handle?

How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in California?
California generally provides two years for many personal injury claims, but shorter deadlines may apply in certain cases, including claims involving public entities. Medical malpractice and other specialized claims may have different rules. Legal review should happen promptly.
What if a government entity may be responsible?
Cases involving cities, counties, schools, public roads, public sidewalks, transit agencies, public hospitals, or other government entities may require a government claim before a lawsuit can be filed. These deadlines can be short.
What if I was partly at fault for the accident?
California allows injured people to recover damages even if they are partly at fault, but the recovery may be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to them. Insurance companies often try to exaggerate fault, so the facts should be carefully investigated.
What damages can I recover in a personal injury case?
Damages may include medical expenses, future care, lost income, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement, property damage, and, in wrongful death cases, damages available to surviving family members.
Will my case go to trial?
Many cases resolve before trial, but serious injury cases should be prepared as if trial may be necessary. Careful preparation can improve the strength of the case during settlement negotiations and litigation.
How much does it cost to hire The Mason Firm?
The Mason Firm handles personal injury cases on a contingency-fee basis. Clients do not pay attorney’s fees unless there is a recovery.
Can The Mason Firm help if the injury happened outside San Bernardino?
