You do not have to face this alone. Our Chico legal team helps people across Northern California understand their rights, make a plan, and take the next step with confidence.
Some intersections in Chico see heavy traffic every single day. You have students near Chico State, farm trucks coming in from rural roads, and commuters heading down Highway 99. When drivers speed, run yellow lights, or look at their phones, crashes happen fast. Poor visibility, short turn lanes, and confusing light patterns can also play a role. If you were hit at one of these spots, you are not alone.
Certain intersections come up again and again in police reports. Areas like Esplanade and East Avenue, Mangrove Avenue and East Avenue, Notre Dame Boulevard and East 20th Street, Cohasset Road and East Avenue, and Park Avenue near Highway 99 are known for serious crashes. We often see rear end crashes, left turn collisions, and T bone impacts in these areas. Many involve distracted drivers or people trying to beat a red light. If your crash happened at one of these intersections, it may help show that the area has a history of accidents.
First, make sure you and your passengers are safe and call 911. Get medical care, even if you think you feel okay. Take photos of the cars, the intersection, skid marks, and traffic lights. Get names and contact information from witnesses. Report the crash to your insurance company, but do not give a recorded statement to the other driver’s insurer before you speak with a lawyer. Then call a Chico car accident attorney to learn your options.
After a serious crash, bills add up quickly. You may be able to recover money for medical expenses, lost wages, future treatment, and damage to your car. Pain, stress, and the impact on your daily life also matter. Every case is different, and no lawyer can promise a specific amount. We can review your situation and give you an honest assessment during a free consultation.
We offer free consultations for car accident cases. You pay no fees unless we win money for you. Call Rooney Law Firm at (530) LAW-HELP or (800) TKO-4LAW to speak with our team. Let us help you understand your rights and take the next step.
Answer: In most personal injury cases, you have two years from the date of the crash to file a lawsuit. Some exceptions can change that deadline. If you wait too long, you could lose your right to recover money. It is smart to talk with a lawyer as soon as possible.
Answer: We work on a contingency fee. That means you pay no upfront fees and no hourly bills. We only get paid if we win money for you. Every case is different, and results are never guaranteed.
Answer: No. Our office is in Chico, but we handle car accident cases across Northern California. That includes Redding, Red Bluff, Yuba City, Oroville, and nearby communities. If you live within driving distance, we can likely help.
Answer: Do not panic. Fault is often disputed after a crash, especially at busy intersections. Police reports, traffic camera footage, and witness statements can make a big difference. We can investigate and work to protect your side of the story.
