Why a Santa Ana Personal Injury Lawyer Needs to Know These Courts
Most Orange County civil cases are heard at the Orange County Superior Court’s Central Justice Center in Santa Ana. Federal employment and civil rights cases in Orange County are heard at the Ronald Reagan Federal Courthouse, the Southern Division of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Our trial lawyers know these courthouses, their judges’ procedures, and Orange County juries.
Santa Ana’s freeways, including the I-5, SR-55, SR-22, and SR-57, and busy surface streets like Bristol, Main, and First Street see frequent serious collisions. Many of Santa Ana’s workers are in manufacturing, warehousing, food service, and healthcare, industries where unpaid overtime, missed meal and rest breaks, and retaliation for complaints are common.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you represent clients regardless of immigration status?
Yes. California’s wage and hour protections and the right to recover for injuries caused by someone else’s negligence apply to all workers and residents, and in most cases your immigration status is not relevant to your claim.
Do you offer consultations in Spanish?
Yes. Please call us or visit our Spanish contact page.
