There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. We would encourage you to contact our Bakersfield car accident lawyers to discuss your situation in detail. We can help you determine whether you have a valid personal injury case.
As a general matter, if your injury was caused by the negligent actions of another, you may be entitled to recover compensation even when the damages suffered were very minor.
However, if the total damages associated with your injury are less than $7,500, you may be better off filing your claim in a small claims court. This would potentially speed up the process and could ultimately save you money because you wouldn’t have an attorney sharing a percentage of your already-relatively-small recovery. However, we offer this as a general comment only — every case is unique.
Mickey Fine is committed to the belief that everyone deserves justice. No case is too big or too small. Rather, the question is whether we believe our Bakersfield car accident lawyers can add value to your claim. We will give you an honest answer to that question during a consultation.
