Municipal Liability

Municipal liability is the body of the law that oversees civil suit in which the local city or county government is alleged to be at fault. In general, the language of the law can make legal claims against the government and any of its agencies quite difficult. Between complicated language in existing laws, a shorter statute of limitation period of 6 months, and certain immunities in place thanks to the California Tort Claims Act, the chances of successfully filing and collecting on a municipal liability claim can be rather slim without an attorney’s help.
