Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

Re: Rights for action in auto accident?

The other driver's insurance company should take care of the passenger's medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost earnings. A lawyer should be able to assist in maximizing their recovery short of filing a lawsuit. Please note, certain laws limit the time in which a lawsuit can be filed. Contact a lawyer, especially if it's been a while since the accident.

Re: Rights for action in auto accident?

Any party that was injured in the accident has a cause of action against the party that negligently caused the injuries. The compensation everyone is entitled to includes their medical bills, lost earnings (if any), pain and suffering and any other damages related to the injuries incurred in the accident.

I would be happy to discuss this matter with you.

The cause of action would be for "negligence" in filing a lawsuit. But that may not be necessary--many cases can be settled out of court with the right attorney.
