Thank You For Contacting Our San Diego Personal Injury Lawyers

Please understand that Mitchell | Gilleon does not now represent you.  An attorney will review the information that you have submitted, and a member of Mitchell | Gilleon will be in touch with you shortly.

It is important for you to note that during this interim review period, you remain individually responsible for any and all deadlines which may be applicable your action. 

Please be advised that every state, including the State of California, statutorily prescribes time limits during which a legal action must be commenced.  These time limits are statutory, and vary from state to state.  In some instances, these time provisions can be as short as one year from the time of wrong doing.  Where public entity defendants are involved, this time period may even be shorter. 

In California, personal injury actions against private persons or entities generally must be instituted within two years from the date a reasonable person should have discovered the defendant's wrong doing. However, medical negligence (medical malpractice) actions may be required to be filed
in as little as one year from the date of wrongful conduct. In situations where a governmental or other public entity is potentially responsible for the harm, a 'government claim' must be made to the proper entity within six months of the date of wrongdoing or suit may be barred.  Again, these time limits vary between states.

Accordingly, during this interim review period, you must take any and all steps necessary in order to protect your ability to bring suit.  In the event Mitchell | Gilleon needs further documentation regarding your claim, you can expect contact within several days.  It is likely that you will be requested to provide a narrative regarding the circumstances regarding your action.  Medical records, police reports, and other documentation may also be requested from you.

If you do not hear from Mitchell | Gilleon within one week of the date of your inquiry, we request that you contact us on our toll free number­ (877) 702-8623.
