Legal Question in Personal Injury in California
Reimbursement of Medical on Auto Accident Claim
Can I recover reimbursement for time spent receiving medical treatment with providers as well as time spent driving to and from receiving treatment as a result of a car accident where I was hit and it was determined that the other driver was 100% at fault?

Re: Reimbursement of Medical on Auto Accident Claim
If you are working at the time you can claim lost wages for the doctors visits as well as mileage to and from the doctor's office. If you are on leave you are already claiming lost wages, but you can also claim mileage. If you were unemployed prior to the accident you may only be able to claim mileage, depending on the case. If you would like additional information please feel free to contact my office toll free at 877-546-9918 or by email.
