Sanger Personal Injury Lawyer | Wagner Law Group

Q: How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?

In most cases, California gives you two years from the date of your injury to file a lawsuit. Miss that deadline and you permanently lose your right to recover — regardless of how strong your case is. If your injury involved a government entity such as a city or county, the deadline drops to six months. Do not wait.

Q: What if I was partially at fault for my accident?

You can still recover. California follows pure comparative negligence — even if you were 50% at fault, you can still recover 50% of your damages. Insurance companies will try to inflate your share of fault to reduce their payout. Our attorneys fight back with evidence to keep your percentage as low as possible.

The Wagner Law Group has fought for Sanger injury victims for over 42 years — and we have the local results to prove it. When a Sanger police officer assaulted a local resident, we took the case to the City of Sanger itself and won a $5.25 million settlement for our client. That is what it means to fight for the people of Sanger.

If you were injured because of someone else’s negligence — in a car accident on Highway 180, a workplace injury, a slip and fall, a dog bite, or any other situation — The Wagner Law Group is ready to fight for you. Free consultation. No fees unless we win.

We Have Already Won for Sanger

Most law firms that list Sanger as a service area have never set foot in the city. The Wagner Law Group is different — we have taken on the City of Sanger itself and won.

In 2019, a Sanger Police Department officer sexually assaulted a local woman twice while on duty. The officer was convicted and sentenced to five consecutive life sentences. The Wagner Law Group represented the survivor in the civil matter — and the City of Sanger approved a $5.25 million settlement in her favor.

If we will go up against a city government and win, we will go up against the insurance company handling your claim.

How much does a Sanger personal injury lawyer cost?

What if the accident happened on a farm or agricultural property?

Agricultural and farm worker injury claims in California are handled differently from standard workplace injuries. Depending on your situation, you may have a workers’ compensation claim, a personal injury claim against a third party, or both. The Wagner Law Group handles farm worker and agricultural injury cases throughout Fresno County.
