Do you need a lawyer for a dog bite in San Diego?

Some people hire a lawyer, others don't need to. Here's a quick, no-pressure guide to help you decide.

When it's usually worth talking to a lawyer

Your injury needs ongoing treatment, surgery, or left you with a lasting disability
The insurance company denied, delayed, or lowballed your claim, or fault is disputed
The other driver was uninsured, or multiple parties are involved (several vehicles, an employer, a company)

When many people handle it without a lawyer

The injury was minor and you've already fully recovered
Fault is clear and the insurance company has been cooperative and reasonable
You just need help finding medical care, not negotiating a settlement

Timing matters

Most California personal injury lawyers offer a free consultation and only get paid if you win, so talking to one costs nothing. You generally have 2 years from the accident to file a claim (sometimes just 6 months against a government agency), so don't wait too long to find out.
