Claim it before someone else doesA fall rarely feels like a legal matter in the moment. You're walking through a Railroad Avenue storefront or across a Harbor Street parking lot in Pittsburg, and the ground simply isn't where you expected it—a slick patch, a lifted curb, a stairway missing its railing. Later, once the ankle swells or the wrist refuses to bear weight, the question becomes who was responsible. In Contra Costa County, as across California, that answer turns on notice: whether the owner knew about the hazard, or reasonably should have, and failed to fix it or warn you. That's why the first few days matter. Photograph the exact spot, write down the time, and request that any camera footage be preserved, because many businesses overwrite recordings within weeks. We handle premises liability claims on contingency, meaning no fee unless there is a recovery. You're never obligated to hire us after your initial consultation.
California asks whether the owner knew or should have known about the hazard. We know how to look for inspection logs, prior complaints, and cleanup schedules that show how long a problem was ignored.
Most California premises claims carry a two-year limit, but a fall on city, county, or state property means a much shorter government claim window. Getting started early keeps those options open.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
Under pure comparative fault, being partly at fault—say you were looking at your phone—reduces a recovery rather than eliminating it. We can push back when an owner tries to pin everything on you.
