Court vs. Arbitration: Where will your car accident case actually end up? 🏛️⚖️👇
If you're filing a claim after a car crash in California, you might assume you’re headed straight to a judge and jury. Not necessarily!
Here’s the difference every driver needs to know:
⚖️Public Court: Run by government officials (judges and court staff). It’s where most standard driver vs. driver lawsuits go unless both parties agree otherwise.
🏢Private Arbitration: A private resolution process where a neutral arbitrator decides the outcome.
Did you know? If you are making an Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) claim against your own policy, California law typically requires the case to go to arbitration, not court!
Knowing which path your case requires is key to getting your settlement fast.
