Pico Rivera

The official path after a wreck in Pico Rivera starts with the county in which the collision occurred. That county is Los Angeles County, and the Los Angeles Superior Court is generally the court, often at the civil courthouse the official branch list names for that filing.

Check the official Los Angeles Superior Court locations page, because a Los Angeles County wreck is not a Riverside County filing. A later injury or death filing from a Pico Rivera wreck still has to respect the two-year period in section 335.1. Civil Code section 1431.2 makes each defendant’s liability for non-economic damages several only, in line with that defendant’s share of fault.

Obtain the official crash report from the department that handled the scene, which may be a local department or the Highway Patrol depending on the road. Living nearby, or commuting through the city, does not by itself choose the filing place if the wreck happened somewhere else.
