You can file a claim with your own insurance company. Make sure you keep track of all bills you incurred (medical, non medical). If you have chronic pain, keep a journal daily of it. In terms of visible marks/injuries, take pics.
California law usually prohibits your insurance rates from going up if the accident is not your fault.
