Dataset registry
What each dataset can support
California injury-law reference facts
Selected statutes, insurance minimums, methodology disclosures, and consumer guidance with source labels.
Source rule: Official and internal-analysis sources are labeled separately; verify time-sensitive law against the linked primary source.
Hurt Advice public entity graph
Platform, office, sponsor, participating-attorney, external-firm, source, crawler, and sitemap relationships.
Source rule: Attorney and firm relationships are published only from the verified roster and linked public sources.
English and Spanish question coverage map
Common reader questions mapped to existing canonical answer and evidence routes without generating duplicate pages.
Source rule: Retrieval guidance only; canonical page content and its visible sources control the answer.
Public service inventory
Active service records used by the public service directory and localized discovery routes.
Source rule: Service descriptions are educational and do not promise representation or results.
Injury and claim glossary
Plain-language terms with canonical definition pages and related research routes.
Source rule: Definitions are educational and should not replace advice about a specific matter.
Responsible use
Use context, not just a field value
1
Cite the canonical public page and the original authoritative source when quoting a legal or statistical fact.
2
Do not treat internal estimates, educational calculators, or editorial examples as official records or case outcomes.
3
Re-check time-sensitive law, deadlines, insurance requirements, and public data against the linked primary source.
4
Do not infer an attorney-client relationship, representation, guaranteed availability, or guaranteed result from these endpoints.
5
Underlying public and third-party sources retain their own terms and rights; this catalog does not relicense them.
Source-backed research assets

California injury deadline reference
A compact source-linked matrix of commonly researched California injury, government-claim, property-damage, and wrongful-death filing rules.
Questions this can support
- What is the general California personal injury filing deadline?
- Why can a government-related injury require earlier action?
- Which rule should be verified before relying on a deadline?
Method: Each row reproduces the cautiously worded rule maintained in the shared legal-facts registry and links to the corresponding California court or legislative source.
Limits: The rows are general educational references. Accrual, tolling, notice, claimant status, defendant identity, and other facts can change an individual deadline.
1 record
California auto insurance minimums reference
The current private-passenger-vehicle liability minimums, effective date, citation, and two official consumer sources.
Questions this can support
- What are California minimum auto liability limits?
- When did the current minimums take effect?
- Why can available coverage differ from documented loss?
Method: The shared legal-facts registry stores the effective date and amounts alongside California DMV and Department of Insurance references.
Limits: Minimum limits are not proof of a particular policy, available coverage, fault, damages, or collectible recovery. The actual policy and claim facts control.
1 record
California comparative-fault reference
A source-linked plain-language explanation of how assigned responsibility can affect damages under California civil instructions.
Questions this can support
- Can someone recover if they share responsibility for an injury?
- How does assigned fault affect damages?
- Which California authority explains the calculation?
Method: The summary tracks the current shared legal-facts entry and points readers to the Judicial Council instructions rather than treating an editorial example as law.
Limits: The reference does not assign fault in any event, predict a percentage, calculate damages, or replace review of current law and case-specific evidence.
74 records
California local road-safety source index
A city-keyed index of official traffic-safety plans, collision dashboards, record-access pages, and source limitations used on local Hurt Advice pages.
Questions this can support
- Which official local source covers traffic safety for a California city?
- What does a city crash dashboard or safety plan actually establish?
- Which limitations should accompany local collision context?
Method: Only records already reviewed for a matching local page are included. Every row identifies the publisher, scope, and an explicit limit on incident-level inference.
Limits: Planning records and aggregate dashboards do not prove the facts, road condition, notice, fault, medical causation, or damages in a specific collision.
20 records
San Francisco neighborhood injury-collision index
A transparent lookup from Hurt Advice neighborhood routes to exact injury-collision counts for the matching DataSF analysis neighborhood.
Questions this can support
- How many injury collisions are reported for a named San Francisco analysis neighborhood?
- Which official analysis area supports a Hurt Advice neighborhood page?
- What period and publisher apply to each neighborhood count?
Method: Each row uses an exact count grouped by the analysis_neighborhood field in the SFPD Traffic Crashes Resulting in Injury dataset. A site neighborhood is included only where a reviewed mapping to the named analysis area exists.
Limits: Counts describe the named analysis area and reporting period, not a specific street, incident, current risk level, fault, dangerous condition, causation, or expected claim outcome. Two site labels can map to the same official analysis area, so the measured-area field must travel with the count.
6 records
California public-entity claim process reference
A source-linked sequence for claim contents, presentation, entity action, rejection, suit timing, and possible late-claim review under the California Government Claims Act.
Questions this can support
- What stages should be tracked in a California government claim?
- Which statute supports each presentation or response stage?
- What documents should be preserved before calculating an individual deadline?
Method: The sequence is assembled from the current official California Legislative Information text for each listed Government Code provision. It separates the administrative claim from any later lawsuit period and records evidence needed to verify dates.
Limits: This is an educational process map, not an individualized deadline calculation. Accrual, entity identity, claim type, statutory exceptions, notice wording, delivery, amendments, and late-claim procedures can change the analysis.
6 records
Participating attorney license-verification index
The canonical Hurt Advice profile, California Bar number, license status, admission date, official record, and verification date for every verified participating attorney.
Questions this can support
- How can I verify a participating attorney?
- Which Hurt Advice profile is the verified attorney page?
- When was the public license record last checked?
Method: Rows come only from the verified attorney-license registry. Each official name, number, status, and admission date links to the corresponding California Bar record.
Limits: License status is time-sensitive. Re-check the official Bar record before relying on it, and do not infer availability, representation, specialization, or case results.

California County Road-User Collision Trends: 2021 and 2023
A reproducible two-point comparison of California OTS county-level fatal-and-injury victim counts for all road users, motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists.
Questions this can support
- How did reported fatal-and-injury victim counts differ between 2021 and 2023 by California county?
- What did OTS report for motorcycle, pedestrian, and bicyclist victims in each county?
- Which official page supports a specific county-year value?
Method: The importer requests the official OTS ranking page for every California county for 2021 and 2023, verifies the page identity and required rows, and transcribes only the published victim counts and OTS ranks. Publication requires exactly 116 unique county-year records. Statewide values shown here are sums of one field across the 58 county rows; categories are never added together because a person can appear in the total and in a road-user category.
Limits: This is a two-point 2021-to-2023 comparison, not a continuous annual trend series. No missing year is interpolated. OTS labels the values as victims killed and injured. They are not counts of crashes, claims, lawsuits, fault findings, or recoveries. Population, travel volume, reporting practices, and exposure differ by county. Raw counts alone should not be used as a risk ranking. The OTS ranks are reproduced as published and should be interpreted through OTS methodology, not as Hurt Advice ratings.
116 records
California Senior Pedestrian Safety by County: 2021 and 2023
An All Seniors-sponsored, source-transparent comparison of OTS pedestrian victims age 65 and older across every California county in 2021 and 2023.
Questions this can support
- How many pedestrian victims age 65 and older did OTS report by California county?
- What share of each county pedestrian-victim count was age 65 and older?
- How do the 2021 and 2023 source records compare without inferring causation?
Method: The age-65-plus and all-pedestrian counts are copied from the same 116 validated OTS county-year rows used in the county comparison. Hurt Advice calculates the senior share for each row by dividing the age-65-plus value by the all-pedestrian value and rounding to one decimal place. No rate is calculated where the denominator is zero.
Limits: The OTS category is age 65 and older. It does not describe injury severity, mobility, disability, trip purpose, road design, fault, or transportation access. The derived percentage is a share of reported pedestrian victims in the same OTS table, not a population-adjusted risk rate. This is a two-point comparison. It does not establish a continuous trend or explain why a count changed. All Seniors Foundation sponsors Hurt Advice. OTS produced the source records and does not endorse Hurt Advice or the sponsor.
50 records
California Automobile Insurance Complaint Trends: 2022-2024
A source-preserving transcription of the California Department of Insurance 2025 study for 50 large automobile insurers, covering justified complaint ratios and counts for 2022-2024.
Questions this can support
- What justified complaint ratios did CDI publish for large California auto insurers?
- How did a listed company ratio change from 2022 through 2024?
- What limitations apply before using complaint data to compare insurers?
Method: The importer downloads the official CDI PDF, records its SHA-256 digest, converts it to fixed-layout text, and requires exactly 50 consecutively ranked company rows. The public values are a direct transcription of rank, approximate exposure count, justified complaint ratios, and justified complaint counts. Direction counts compare each company ratio for 2024 with its 2023 ratio; they are Hurt Advice calculations.
Limits: The study covers 50 large automobile insurers in the CDI table, not every insurer or insurance product in California. CDI defines the justified complaint ratio per 100,000 earned exposures. Read the CDI note and report edition before comparing values. A complaint ratio does not establish misconduct in a specific claim, predict claim handling, measure price, or identify the best insurer for a consumer. Affiliated companies can appear separately, and company names or portfolios can change. Use the report edition and exact legal company name when citing a row. This fixed-edition dataset covers complaint years 2022-2024. It should not be described as the newest CDI complaint study.
74 records
California Local Injury Evidence Source Index
A 60-city directory linking Hurt Advice location hubs to reviewed California government records with source scope, limits, request fields, and official URLs.
Questions this can support
- Which reviewed official record is connected to a Hurt Advice California city guide?
- Which agency publishes a listed local collision, roadway-safety, court, or record-access source?
- What details should a requester gather before seeking a city-specific incident or planning record?
- What can an aggregate local source support, and what can it not prove about one event?
Method: A deterministic exporter reads the complete public roster of 60 California location hubs and every reviewed source assigned to each city. Publication fails if a city lacks a source, a required source field is empty, a URL is not HTTPS, a source URL is duplicated, or the public CSV and JSON differ from the reviewed registry. Hurt Advice does not combine source values, model missing records, or infer incident facts from these links.
Limits: The index identifies useful official starting points; it is not a complete inventory of every agency, record series, roadway custodian, court file, medical record, or insurer document relevant to an event. Source periods and update schedules differ. A planning document or aggregate table does not establish the current condition of a location or the facts of a particular incident. A listed agency may not control the record for one event. Confirm jurisdiction, requester eligibility, retention, fees, exemptions, and the correct custodian before relying on a request path. Inclusion does not rank a city, agency, attorney, service, or claim and does not establish fault, notice, causation, injury, coverage, damages, deadlines, or likely outcomes. Official websites can move or revise documents. Use the linked publisher, record title, source period, and request fields to verify the current official record.
