Personal injury case review for Lake County

If you were hurt in an accident in Lake County within the last 30 days and someone else was at fault, the free case review takes about two minutes and tells you whether you meet Nozar Law's current criteria. It covers Clearlake, Lakeport, and Hidden Valley Lake and the rest of the county.

About two minutes. No cost and no obligation.

Question 1 of 10

What kind of accident were you in?

Checking the basics8%

Lake County surrounds Clear Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake located entirely within California. Lakeport is the county seat, Clearlake is the largest city, and Highway 20 and Highway 29 are its main routes. The review covers crashes on Highway 20, Highway 29, and Highway 53 as well as on local streets in Lakeport, the county seat; where in Lake County the accident happened does not change the questions it asks.

In a rural county like Lake, prompt care may mean a clinic in Lakeport, a regional hospital in a neighboring county, or a telehealth visit; each counts toward the criteria, which look for treatment within 14 days of the accident.

What to expect

What happens after you check

  1. Answer a few quick questions

    The free case review asks what happened, how to reach you, when it happened, and whether you were treated. Nothing else.

  2. Confirm your number

    We text a short code to confirm it is really you. This is also how the firm records that you agreed to be contacted.

  3. A short follow-up call

    If your answers meet the criteria, a member of the Nozar Law intake team calls to confirm details and explain possible next steps. Whether to move forward is entirely your decision.

Common questions

Questions people ask

Does the accident have to be in Lake County?

No. This page is written for people in Lake County, but the review covers accidents anywhere in California; the ZIP code question only confirms you are in the state.

Where would a case from Lake County be heard?

Civil cases that arise in Lake County are generally filed in the Superior Court of California, County of Lake, which sits in Lakeport, though where a particular claim belongs depends on the facts. The review does not ask about it.

I was hurt on Highway 20 in Lake County. Does it matter which agency wrote the report?

No. A CHP report from Highway 20 and a report from a city police department or the Lake County Sheriff work the same way for the intake team; the review asks only whether a report was filed.

The nearest hospital to me in Lake County is a long drive. Does that affect eligibility?

No. The criteria look for treatment within 14 days of an accident in Lake County, or a plan to get it, not for treatment at a particular place; a clinic in Lakeport, a regional hospital, or a telehealth visit all count.
