The Moments After a Car Accident Matter

In the shock and confusion following a collision, it's easy to make mistakes that permanently damage your legal claim. Insurance adjusters are trained to contact you quickly — before you've had time to process what happened — and to get recorded statements that minimize their liability. Clifford Chigbu levels the playing field.

What to Do Immediately After an Accident

2026 California Auto Insurance Changes

California raised minimum auto insurance requirements effective January 1, 2026: $30,000 per person / $60,000 per accident / $15,000 property damage. However, these minimums are often insufficient for serious accidents. Clifford will identify all available insurance coverage — including underinsured and uninsured motorist coverage — to maximize your recovery.

Rideshare Accidents — Uber & Lyft

Accidents involving Uber or Lyft drivers involve complex insurance coverage questions depending on whether the driver was logged into the app, waiting for a ride request, or actively transporting a passenger. Clifford Chigbu understands the nuances of rideshare liability and will identify all available coverage.

Truck & Commercial Vehicle Accidents

Accidents involving semi-trucks, delivery vehicles, and commercial fleets involve multiple potentially liable parties — the driver, the trucking company, the cargo loader, and vehicle manufacturers. These cases require immediate action to preserve evidence including black box data, driver logs, and maintenance records. Call Clifford immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Case value depends on medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and the severity of the other driver's negligence. Clifford Chigbu will evaluate your case for free and give you an honest, realistic assessment of its value.
California requires drivers to carry uninsured motorist (UM) coverage. If you have UM coverage on your own policy, you can make a claim against your own insurance for your injuries. Clifford will identify all available coverage sources to maximize your recovery.
California's statute of limitations for car accident personal injury claims is 2 years from the date of the accident. For property damage only, it's 3 years. Claims against government entities (city buses, government vehicles) must be filed within 6 months. Do not wait.
