Orange County Municipal Liability Attorney

Municipal liability applies to any civil case in which the government is claimed to be at fault. There are several mechanisms in place that make legal claims against government agencies more difficult. An intricate set of laws, a shortened six-month statute of limitations, immunities provided by the California Tort Claims Act, and a rigid procedural code apply when you are pursuing municipal liability cases.

If you or someone you love has been injured or killed in an accident involving municipal or governmental entities, we urge you to seek the help of a qualified and experienced Orange County municipal liability lawyer who can help explain your legal rights and options. Please contact us today for a FREE case evaluation.
