My personal attorney at The Barnes Firm was Mr Joe Vasquez. He was an amazing attorney who was transparent, informed, and highly knowledgeable. Joe fought diligently for me regarding my accident case. I highly recommend. My hopes are that I never ever have an accident again. But if I do, I would go with The Barnes Firm and Joe Vasquez.

I am truly thankful for his unwavering dedication and for introducing me to outstanding professionals throughout the legal process. I wholeheartedly recommend him!

If you’ve been injured in a San Marcos car accident, seek immediate medical attention. You can also preserve evidence by taking pictures or video of the accident scene, filing a police report, and collecting contact information from other parties involved. Our team can use this evidence to build your case and claim the full value of your damages.
Under California’s pure comparative negligence rule, you can still claim compensation if you share fault for your accident. However, the amount you recover is proportionately reduced by your share of the fault. Speak with our attorneys to learn how this might affect your case.
For most cases, the California statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident. If you miss the two-year deadline, you may lose the right to recover damages. Our attorneys can determine the applicable deadline for your case and initiate your lawsuit before the statute of limitations expires.
If the at-fault driver does not have insurance, our team can help you explore other options for compensation, including:
- Uninsured motorist coverage
- Collision coverage
- Collecting from the at-fault driver directly through a personal injury lawsuit
The Barnes Firm works on a contingency fee basis, meaning there are no upfront fees to hire our team. Our lawyers only get paid if we recover compensation for you. Our fee is a pre-agreed percentage of the recovery.
