Accidents happen in an instant—but the aftermath can drag on for months or even years. Insurance companies call, medical bills pile up, and suddenly you’re expected to fight for every dollar you deserve while trying to heal.
That’s exactly why so many Californians turn to a personal injury lawyer. At Sally Morin Law, we’ve spent over 25 years handling serious California traffic accident cases so our clients don’t have to. We handle the legal fight so you can focus on recovery.
If you’re asking yourself “Do I really need a lawyer?” the short answer is: yes—if you want the best possible outcome with the least amount of stress.
The Hidden Costs of Handling Your Claim Alone
Insurance adjusters are trained negotiators whose job is to pay you as little as possible. Without professional representation:
- You risk accepting a lowball offer that doesn’t cover future medical care or lost wages.
- You spend countless hours gathering evidence, dealing with paperwork, and chasing adjusters.
- You may unknowingly miss critical deadlines or sign away rights you didn’t even know you had.
Hiring an experienced personal injury attorney flips the script. We become your advocate, investigator, negotiator, and shield—handling every detail so you save time, reduce stress, and protect your financial future.

Real Result: $4.25 Million Scooter vs. Taxi Settlement
In one of our most impactful cases, a young couple riding their Vespa scooter in San Francisco was struck by a distracted Yellow Cab taxi driver who made an illegal left turn. The wife suffered catastrophic pelvic, hip, and leg injuries requiring multiple surgeries and over $1 million in immediate medical bills. Her husband sustained multiple broken bones.
Yellow Cab even tried filing for bankruptcy to dodge responsibility.
Sally Morin herself visited the wife’s hospital bedside to reassure the couple and begin building their case immediately. Our team navigated the complex bankruptcy proceedings and secured a $4.25 million settlement—covering past and future medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
This outcome shows what’s possible when you have relentless, experienced attorneys on your side.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?
A: At Sally Morin Law we work on a contingency fee basis—you pay nothing upfront and we only get paid if we recover compensation for you.
Q: How long will my case take?
A: Every case is different, but most of our clients receive settlements within months of completing medical treatment because we focus on efficient, strategic negotiation.
Q: What if the insurance company already made me an offer?
A: Never accept it without speaking to an attorney. Many initial offers are far below what your case is truly worth.
Q: Do I have to go to court?
A: The vast majority of our cases settle out of court. We prepare every case as if it’s going to trial—which gives us stronger leverage during negotiations.
