Kubota & Craig represents injured people in Anaheim, California — Orange County’s largest city — from the resort and convention district to the Platinum Triangle and the residential neighborhoods along the 5 and the 91. We are a personal injury firm based in Irvine, and founding partners Yoshiaki Kubota and Cynthia A. Craig personally handle every Anaheim matter the firm accepts, from motor-vehicle collisions to premises-liability and wrongful-death claims.
Where Personal Injuries Happen in Anaheim
Anaheim is wrapped by three major freeways: Interstate 5 (the Santa Ana Freeway) through the city’s core, State Route 91 (the Riverside Freeway) across the north, and State Route 57 (the Orange Freeway) along the east near the Platinum Triangle. The California Highway Patrol handles collisions on all of them, and serious car, truck, and motorcycle collisions on them are matters our firm handles. Surface arterials such as Harbor Boulevard, Katella Avenue, Ball Road, and State College Boulevard carry heavy visitor and commuter traffic — and the pedestrian and rideshare collisions that come with a major tourism economy.
Anaheim’s concentration of large entertainment, convention, and sports venues drives its premises-liability profile. High-volume destinations around the resort district, the convention center, and the stadium and arena in the Platinum Triangle draw dense crowds that produce slip and fall injuries, crowd and parking-structure incidents, and falling-object claims. Residential neighborhoods produce dog bite claims, and the city’s substantial construction and industrial base produces construction and burn injuries. The most serious collisions and falls result in traumatic brain injury, wrongful death, and product liability claims.
How Kubota & Craig Serves Anaheim
Kubota & Craig represents injured Anaheim residents and visitors from our office at 16530 Bake Parkway, Suite 100, Irvine, CA 92618, a short drive from Anaheim via Interstate 5. We are not an Anaheim–based firm with a local storefront — we are an Irvine personal-injury firm that serves Anaheim, and we say so plainly. Founding partners Yoshiaki Kubota (California State Bar #175555) and Cynthia A. Craig (California State Bar #226318) personally handle every matter the firm accepts. Initial consultations are free, available in English and Spanish, and the firm works on a contingency basis — no fee unless the case results in a recovery. When an injury makes travel impractical, we come to you, including at the hospitals serving the Anaheim area.

Filing a Personal Injury Claim Arising in Anaheim
Personal injury cases arising in Anaheim are filed in the Orange County Superior Court. Most injury cases are unlimited civil matters, filed and heard at the Central Justice Center, 700 Civic Center Drive West, in Santa Ana; only cases designated as complex litigation are handled at the Civil Complex Center (751 W. Santa Ana Boulevard). Venue follows where the injury happened, not where you live — important in Anaheim, where many injured visitors live out of state or abroad but still file their Orange County claim here.
Three deadlines matter most:
- Two years from the date of injury — CCP § 335.1 (most injury claims).
- Three years for property damage — CCP § 338 (runs independently of the injury period).
- Six months to file an administrative claim if the City of Anaheim, the County of Orange, OCTA, Caltrans, or any other government entity is a potential defendant — Government Code § 911.2. Sidewalk defects, dangerous road design, signal failures, and government-owned vehicles fall here, and missing the deadline ordinarily extinguishes the claim.
If a government entity may be involved in your Anaheim case, ask us early rather than late.
Frequently Asked Questions — Personal Injury in Anaheim
I was injured while visiting Anaheim from out of state. Can I still bring a claim?
Yes. Venue follows where the injury occurred, not where you live, so an injury in Anaheim is a claim you can pursue in Orange County Superior Court regardless of your home state or country. California’s two-year injury statute of limitations applies. We regularly represent visitors injured in Orange County and can handle much of the case remotely.
I was injured at a large Anaheim entertainment or convention venue. Whom do I sue?
Often more than one party. California premises liability reaches anyone who owned, controlled, or managed the property and failed to use reasonable care — the venue operator, the property owner, contracted security, ride or event vendors, and management companies can each be involved. Identifying the right defendants requires the incident report and the contracts among those parties, which we investigate routinely. We do not prejudge any specific venue’s liability without the facts.
I was hurt on a public street or sidewalk in Anaheim. Can I sue the city?
Possibly, but the deadline is short — a written administrative claim to the City of Anaheim within six months of the injury under Government Code § 911.2, with the lawsuit following within six months of any rejection. If a road, sidewalk, or signal condition may have contributed, consult an attorney immediately.
I just want to know what my case is worth. Can you give me a number?
Not honestly, without first reviewing your case. Value depends on your injuries, medical bills, lost income, available insurance, and the strength of the liability evidence. We can give you a realistic range after reviewing the police report, medical records, and policy limits. The assessment is free.
