Riverside sits where SR 91, SR 60 and I-215 meet, and its city streets carry commuters from across the Inland Empire. After a crash, people here face the same short list of problems: finding the report, getting treated, keeping up with the insurer and deciding whether to call a lawyer. Raincross Post works through that list in plain English and links each rule to its source.
The beat
We cover the City of Riverside and the surrounding county. The front page has the checklist for the first days, who has your report and where cases are heard, California’s time limits and fault rule, and how to vet a lawyer.
The free case review
The front page has one short form. It asks when the crash happened, whether another driver caused it, whether you have pain or injury symptoms and whether you have already signed with a lawyer. If the answers fit, you leave a name and phone number.
The Post sends your request to our partner law firm. Our partner’s automated assistant calls, confirms a few details and can connect you with the intake team. The review costs nothing, you are not obliged to hire an attorney, and our partner decides whether it can help. Raincross Post is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.
