Senate Bill 235 Puts All the Cards on the Table for California Person Injury Cases

The Stakes Just Got Higher

The deck has been reshuffled for personal injury claims in California with the introduction of Senate Bill 235 (SB 235). The new rules prioritize transparency and efficiency, potentially leading to faster resolutions and a more equitable legal process.

Don’t face these changes alone if you’re considering legal action after an injury. Be sure to consult with a knowledgeable California personal injury attorney to understand your rights and options under this landmark legislation.

Key Changes Under SB 235

  • 60-Day Information Exchange: No more endless waiting games. Opposing parties must provide essential documents and details within 60 days of a request, ensuring your legal team has the evidence they need to build a compelling case.
  • Comprehensive Disclosures Upfront: Witness lists, key documents, damage calculations, and insurance information — all these vital components must be disclosed early in the process. This upfront clarity enables your attorney to craft a more strategic and successful action plan from the start.

What This Means for You

If you’re pursuing a personal injury claim in California, SB 235 is a welcome development. Here’s why:

  • Accelerated Timeline & Reduced Stress: The faster exchange of information allows your attorney to build your case sooner, potentially leading to quicker settlements or trials—this means less time spent in legal limbo and a faster path to compensation.
  • Increased Transparency & Informed Decision-Making: SB 235 promotes a more open and equitable legal process, ensuring all parties have the necessary information to make well-informed choices. You’ll gain a clearer understanding of your case’s strengths and weaknesses, allowing you to proceed with greater confidence and control.
