Why Westlake Village Injury Victims Choose Leigh Law Firm

Alexander J. Leigh, Esq. built his practice after working on the defense side, and that background gives our clients a real advantage. We know how insurers and opposing counsel evaluate and challenge claims because we’ve operated from that position. We enter every case already familiar with the other side’s playbook, which shapes how we negotiate and how we prepare for litigation.

Every client gets direct access to an attorney, not a case manager or a rotating staff. We take time to understand your specific injury, your medical needs, and your financial situation before building a strategy. Our goal is to help you receive quality medical care and to account for every category of your loss when we fight to maximize your compensation.

Leigh Law Firm is a member of the California Applicants’ Attorneys Association and the Consumer Attorneys of San Diego, reflecting our commitment to plaintiff-side advocacy across Southern California.

Filing Deadlines Every Westlake Village Injury Victim Should Know

California Code of Civil Procedure Section 335.1 gives most injury victims two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing that deadline typically bars the claim permanently, no matter how strong the evidence is. That clock doesn’t pause while you negotiate with an insurance company.

Claims against a government entity, such as a city or county, carry a shorter window: you must file a formal administrative claim within six months of the injury before a lawsuit can proceed. That distinction catches many people off guard.

California also follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault but isn’t eliminated entirely, even if you share some responsibility for the accident. If you’re unsure whether you have a viable claim or how fault might be allocated, speaking with a personal injury attorney in Westlake Village as soon as possible can help protect your options.
