When the defendant causes an accident because of their negligence, they are responsible for any bills following the accident. If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, California law does not require the defendant to pay for your medical bills.
California law does require the defendant to pay lump-sum compensation that includes medical costs as part of the damages. Compounding medical costs can put a financial strain on victims.
