Norco
Injury claims in Horsetown USA
Norco is a short drive from our office at 700 E. Grand Blvd. in Corona. If you were hurt in Norco, you can meet with us in person, talk by phone, or start online.
Norco’s injury cases reflect the city. Along with crashes on Hamner Avenue, Sixth Street, Second Street, River Road, and the 15 freeway, there are collisions with horse trailers and slow farm equipment, riders hurt on roads and trails, and dog and animal attacks on large residential lots.
Norco does not have its own police department. The city contracts with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office, whose deputies work out of the Jurupa Valley Station and a substation at Norco City Hall, so the Sheriff takes reports for crashes on city streets. Crashes on the 15 are usually handled by the CHP.
These cases often turn on who owned or controlled the animal, vehicle, or property, so photos and witness names gathered early matter. We deal with the insurers, gather the records, and keep you updated in plain English.

What to do, and what we do
01
Get care and document it
See a doctor even if you feel fine. Photograph the scene, the vehicles or animal, and your injuries, and get witness names and phone numbers.
02
Report it
Report a crash to the Sheriff’s Office or, on the 15, the CHP. Report a dog or animal attack to animal control. For a fall, ask the owner for an incident report.
03
Talk to us first
Before you give an insurer a recorded statement, call (951) 444-7407. The consultation is free, and we can request the report for you.
04
We build the claim
We collect reports, records, and bills, present a documented demand, and negotiate. If the insurer will not be fair, we talk with you about filing suit before the deadline.
Common questions
Norco injury questions
What if a horse or other animal was involved?
For dog bites, California holds the owner responsible in most cases, even if the dog never bit anyone before. For horses and other animals, responsibility usually depends on whether the owner or handler was careless. Bring any photos, names, and reports.
How much does it cost?
No fee and no costs unless we recover. We work on a contingency fee, and we explain the percentage in writing before you sign.
Do I have to come in?
No. You can handle most of the claim by phone and online, or meet with us at our Corona office, minutes from Norco.
How long do I have to file?
In California, most injury lawsuits must be filed within two years. Claims against a public agency have a much shorter deadline, usually six months. Call early so a deadline does not decide your case.
What if I was hurt on a trail or at a park?
If a trail, park, or road the city maintains played a part, the claim goes to the City of Norco and usually must be presented in writing within six months. Photograph the hazard before it is repaired.
Do you speak Spanish?
Yes. Se habla español. Tell us when you call and we will arrange it.
