Local Expertise: Deep knowledge of Alameda County courts and the Alameda Police Department reporting procedures.
Proven Results: Over $150 million recovered for clients in car, bike, and pedestrian accidents.
No Win, No Fee: You pay nothing unless we win your case. Guaranteed.
By working with an experienced Alameda personal injury attorney, you can demonstrate the legitimacy of your injuries, prove that someone else was negligent and therefore responsible, and request reimbursement for medical expenses, loss of income, and other damages. The team at Sally Morin can assist you and ensure you get the full and fair compensation you deserve.
The total compensation you are awarded will depend on the individual circumstances of your case. Each case is unique, and various factors will be considered to determine how much money you are owed in a settlement.
In most cases, the damages you suffer will play a significant role in what kind of compensation you could get. Compensation generally falls into two categories:
| Type of Damages | Description | Common Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Special Damages (Economic) |
Quantifiable financial losses |
• Past and future medical bills • Lost wages / lost earning capacity • Property damage (e.g., vehicle repair/replacement) • Out-of-pocket expenses (transportation to appointments, etc.) |
| General Damages (Non-Economic) |
More subjective impacts on your life |
• Pain and suffering • Emotional distress & mental anguish • Loss of enjoyment of life / hobbies • Loss of consortium (impact on relationships with loved ones) • Inconvenience and reduced quality of life |

Intersections like Webster St & Atlantic Ave and Constitution Way & Marina Village Pkwy see a high volume of traffic accidents. We understand the specific traffic patterns of these high-risk areas and how to prove liability in these specific locations.
In California, you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. However, if a government entity is involved (such as an AC Transit bus or a city-owned vehicle), you may only have six months to file a formal claim. It is vital to act quickly.
Yes. California is a “pure comparative negligence” state. This means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident, though your final settlement will be reduced by your percentage of responsibility.
Case value depends on medical expenses, lost wages, and the impact on your quality of life. Our focus is on maximizing your “pocket amount” by aggressively negotiating with insurance companies and reducing your medical liens.

It’s common for accident victims to question whether or not they have a valid case. Why put yourself through the stress of filing a claim and even pursuing legal action if nothing is going to come of it?
As long as you were injured and it was someone else’s fault, you do have a right to file a claim and should do so to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. Even if your injuries were minor, it is still your right to take action against the liable party to recover damages, such as medical expenses, lost income, property damage, and more.
Even though compensation is never guaranteed, if you build a strong case and work with an attorney, you will be more likely to get a higher settlement that fairly compensates you for all your losses.
