Trusted Legal Representation Across East Bay Suburbs
Tucked between Mt. Diablo and the Las Trampas hills, Danville’s mix of scenic trails and busy commuter routes can make even a short drive unpredictable. With I-680 running through town and cyclists sharing narrow roads like Diablo Road and Camino Tassajara, serious accidents can happen in an instant. When they do, having a local legal advocate who understands the area’s risks and resources makes a difference. At Law Office of Daniel Horowitz, we provide personal injury representation rooted in decades of experience and a deep familiarity with Danville’s legal landscape.
The first step toward recovery starts with understanding your legal options. Contact Law Office of Daniel Horowitz at (925) 291-5388 for a free consultation and find out how we can help you take action.

Local Insight That Strengthens Your Case
Knowing Danville’s layout, traffic patterns, and court processes allows us to strengthen your case from the start. We understand the design flaws in certain intersections, where dangerous turns often lead to side-impact collisions. We also know how weather, poor signage, or lighting can contribute to falls or crashes. These are factors often missed by out-of-area attorneys. We have experience working with local police departments, first responders, and clinics like those along San Ramon Valley Blvd. This familiarity can help streamline record requests and build a strong timeline of your injury.
What to Expect After a Danville Injury
After an injury, you may be dealing with more than just physical recovery. Medical bills, time off work, and the stress of dealing with insurers can quickly become overwhelming. That’s where we come in.
We’ll help you:
Understand your rights under California personal injury law
Gather evidence and documentation to support your claim
Communicate with insurance companies on your behalf
Seek full compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering
Prepare your case for trial if a fair settlement isn’t offered
We take on the legal burden so you can focus on healing.
Time Limits for Filing a Personal Injury Claim in Danville
If you were injured in Danville, it’s important to understand how quickly the clock starts ticking on your ability to seek compensation. Under California law, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years from the date of the incident. However, if your case involves a government agency, such as an accident involving a County Connection bus or injuries caused by unsafe road conditions maintained by Contra Costa County, you may have just six months to file a formal claim. Reaching out early allows us to take timely action, preserve key evidence from the scene, locate local witnesses, and strengthen your case before deadlines pass.

While we’re based in Lafayette, we regularly assist clients throughout Danville and nearby communities, including Alamo, San Ramon, and Walnut Creek. We’re proud to be part of the legal fabric of Contra Costa County and know how to navigate the local court system, from settlement negotiations to jury trials in Martinez.
Whether your accident happened on a residential street or a major freeway, we have the tools and insight to advocate effectively on your behalf.

Dan Horowitz was the best attorney I could have asked for during a difficult time in my career. From the moment I met him, I felt believed, respected, and safe. He and his team were endlessly responsive and empathetic to me and my family. He fought for my case day and night, always keeping my best interests at the forefront of his mind. As I learned from Dan, it is never a good time in one’s life to need legal representation - but if you need it, Dan is your person, your advocate, and your best friend.
