Menlo Park

If the wreck happened near Santa Cruz Avenue, El Camino Real, and US 101, the filing county is San Mateo County. A later drive to 24th Street does not move the case.

For a wreck inside this county, start with the San Mateo County Superior Court. Hours and the filing desk are on that court’s official page. An office in this city does not pull an out-of-county collision into this court.

Most injury or death lawsuits after a crash in this city still have to be commenced inside two years, under section 335.1. Percentages of blame matter. Pull the crash paperwork from the responding agency, and mark a six-month notice if a public vehicle was involved.
