Good to know

Before you do anything else

Symptoms of a concussion or other traumatic brain injury, such as headaches, memory problems, dizziness, light sensitivity or mood changes, can appear hours or days after a crash or fall. Get checked, and tell every provider exactly how the injury happened so it is in your records.

In California the general deadline to file a personal injury lawsuit is two years from the injury (Code of Civil Procedure 335.1). A claim against a city, county or state agency usually needs a written government claim within six months (Government Code 911.2).
