Understanding Your Fontana Case
Guidance When You Need It Most
Explore essential resources on your rights, your options, and what to expect — everything you need to navigate the legal process, all in one place.
Wilshire Law Firm handles a broad range of personal injury and employment cases for people in Fontana. On the injury side, that includes car, truck, motorcycle, pedestrian, and rideshare collisions along busy corridors like I-10, I-15, and SR-210 in the Inland Empire, as well as dangerous property conditions, catastrophic injuries, and sexual abuse claims. On the employment side, our team represents workers facing wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and unpaid wages. Whatever happened, a legal professional can help you understand your options during a free case review.
A California personal injury claim generally moves through four stages: case evaluation, investigation and evidence gathering, a demand followed by negotiation, and litigation if a fair settlement cannot be reached. Most claims resolve through negotiation, but our attorneys prepare every case as if it may go to trial. California's statute of limitations generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file (Code of Civil Procedure §335.1), so acting early helps protect your rights.
California employees have some of the strongest workplace protections in the country. The Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prohibits discrimination and harassment based on protected characteristics such as race, sex, age, disability, and religion, and protects workers who report or oppose unlawful conduct from retaliation. State wage-and-hour law also entitles most employees to minimum wage, overtime, and meal and rest breaks. If your rights were violated, a legal professional can explain your options during a free case review.
Recovery depends on the type of case. In a personal injury claim, you can generally pursue economic damages (medical bills, lost wages, property damage) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress). In an employment case, remedies may include lost wages and benefits, reinstatement, emotional distress damages, and civil penalties, and prevailing employees can often recover attorney's fees. Because every case is unique, a legal professional can review your losses during a free case review.
Nothing upfront. We handle personal injury and most employment cases on contingency, which means there are no fees unless you get paid. Case costs — such as filing fees, records requests, and expert witnesses — are separate from attorney fees, and a legal professional will explain how they work during your free case review.

Fontana FAQs
Our Most Frequently Asked Questions
We've answered the most common ones below. If yours isn't here, call us — we're available 24/7.
Wilshire Law Firm represents Fontana clients in personal injury and employment matters. With the city's warehousing, distribution, and manufacturing base and heavy freight traffic where I-10 meets I-15, injury claims often involve trucks and workplace hazards, while employment matters include unpaid wages, missed breaks, and discrimination.
Civil cases arising in Fontana are generally filed in the San Bernardino County Superior Court, which handles the injury and employment matters we bring for clients across the county. Filing in the right court within the deadline is essential.
California generally requires meal and rest breaks for non-exempt employees and premium pay when they are missed, an issue common in Fontana's shift-based warehouse and distribution jobs. Workers denied breaks may recover premium pay in addition to any unpaid wages.
Most California personal injury lawsuits generally must be filed within two years of the injury, including many collisions along the I-10 and I-15 freight corridors, though exceptions can apply. Because the deadline is strict, confirm the one for your case promptly.
