San Diego Government Entity Liability & Claims Lawyer

Injuries arising from government entity negligence pose unique challenges for individuals seeking justice. There is a specific statutory framework under which a government entity (i.e., ca city, state, local agency, department, or federal government) may be held responsible for causing harm.
