Understanding Knee Pain After Car Accident
Knee injuries from car accidents commonly result from the knee striking the dashboard during frontal collisions — hence the term "dashboard knee." The force of impact can damage the patella (kneecap), tear the ACL or PCL, damage the meniscus, or cause bone bruising. Even without dashboard contact, the bracing forces through the leg during a collision can damage knee structures. These injuries require proper imaging and documentation to support their connection to the accident.

Why Documentation Matters for Your Los Banos Case
California Law & Your Knee Pain Claim
California is an at-fault state, meaning the driver who caused the accident (or their insurance company) is responsible for paying your medical expenses and other damages. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in California is 2 years. After this deadline, you lose the right to file a lawsuit for your injuries. California uses a pure comparative fault system, meaning you can recover damages even if you were partially at fault, though your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Medical Payments (MedPay) coverage is available in California and can help cover chiropractic treatment costs regardless of fault determination.
