Sunnyvale

For a crash in Sunnyvale, start with the county, not with the most convenient office. The roads around El Camino Real, Mathilda Avenue, and US 101 sit in Santa Clara County.

When the collision occurred in this county, civil papers usually go to the Santa Clara County Superior Court. Recheck the branch, clerk hours, and phone on that court’s official page. If the wreck actually happened in a different county, file there instead.

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.
