Question 1 of 10

What kind of accident were you in?

Checking the basics8%

San Joaquin County sits at the northern end of the San Joaquin Valley, with Stockton as the county seat and Tracy, Manteca, and Lodi as growing cities. I-5, Highway 99, and I-205 over the Altamont commute route are its main corridors. The review covers crashes on I-5, Highway 99, I-205, Highway 4, and Highway 12 as well as on local streets in Stockton, the county seat; where in San Joaquin County the accident happened does not change the questions it asks.

In San Joaquin County, prompt care might be a hospital in Stockton, a clinic in a smaller town, or a telehealth visit; each creates the record the intake criteria look for, which is 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 San Joaquin County?

No. This page is written for people in San Joaquin 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 San Joaquin County be heard?

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

I was hurt on I-5 in San Joaquin County. Does it matter which agency wrote the report?

No. A CHP report from I-5 and a report from a city police department or the San Joaquin 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 San Joaquin County is a long drive. Does that affect eligibility?

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