I worked with Annie on my case and had such a pleasant experience! I felt supported and understood throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Sally Morin firm. Being injured isn't pleasant, so having a team behind you that's got your back makes the experience that much better.

I just spent the last 8 months working with a team of caring, compassionate, relatable women for my personal injury claim. Brief background: I was hit by a car while riding my bike to work. The driver pulled out of a parallel parking space without looking and was completely at fault. Initially, he and the others in the car were very concerned, but ghosted us afterwards and made up a story in order to not take on the blame. I ended up needing surgery and costs mounted, so I sought legal advice. After much research, I settled on Sally Morin Law. The team at this law firm is invested and responsive in a very personable way. I specifically worked with Carmen and Annie. Carmen took the lead and she answered every email, text, and annoying question my husband and I sent her way. She wrote a detailed demand letter that personalized my case and thoroughly explained the impact the accident had on my life, my children's lives, and my husband's life. In the end, our own insurance policy covered the claim to the fullest amount. Additionally, Carmen was able to negotiate the medical lien to $0, and my husband received a separate smaller amount for loss of consortium. We are more than happy with the results as it’s way beyond what we expected, and completely life changing. We didn't proceed with the case thinking we would have the outcome we did, and almost didn't pursue the case. However, after spending my own money on copays, days off from work, take out, uber rides, babysitters, and special equipment, it just didn't feel right not to seek help and I am so glad that I did! I highly recommend Sally Morin Law!

Last year me and my partner was in a MC/Car accident. I was clueless on what rights we had and how to proceed with insurance claims etc. I contacted Sally Morin Personal Injury Lawyers, who guided us through the year long process in a very pedagogical manner, a lot of support, expertise and professionalism - answering any questions we had in a timely manner. Highly recommended, they made a painful experience very manageable. Thank you, Rebecca, Carmen, and Amber!

Which Types of Personal Injury Cases in San Leandro Do You Handle?

Here at Sally Morin, we have years of experience handling a wide range of personal injury cases in and around the San Leandro, CA area. Our compassionate and dedicated attorneys can help you navigate your claim and ensure you get the high-value settlement you need and deserve. 

Some of the many personal injury cases we handle at our law firm include:

Car Accidents

If you live in California, you’re likely all too aware of how mad traffic can be. Unfortunately, not only is traffic congestion frustrating to deal with, but it can also result in more car accidents. If you are injured in a car accident in San Leandro, one of our personal injury lawyers can help. We’ll handle the complex legal matters and paperwork so you can focus on getting better and moving on with your life. 

Uber Accidents

California is full of innovation, one such invention being rideshare apps. As the birthplace of companies like Uber and Lyft, we get more rideshare drivers on the roads here than anywhere else. However, this also means we tend to see a lot of rideshare-related accidents, which can be more challenging to deal with than other types of accidents. If you are involved in an Uber or Lyft accident and need help with your claim, our team can assist you. 

Catastrophic Injury Accidents

Accidents that result in an injury are one thing, but accidents that result in catastrophic injuries are much more complex. Suffering from a catastrophic injury likely means your life has been severely altered, and you may be facing mountains of medical bills. If this is the case, don’t hesitate to get in contact with someone from our legal team. We can help you through this trying time and ensure you are awarded a high-value settlement to compensate you for your losses and financial struggles. 

Bicycle Accidents

With such beautiful weather year-round, bicycle riding is a popular recreational activity. Many residents of San Leandro even ride their bikes to commute to work. But more bicycles on the roads means a higher risk of being involved in a bicycle accident. If you or a loved one were injured in a bicycle accident in San Leandro, our experienced personal injury attorneys can help you with your case. 

Scooter Accidents

Scooters are also popular in San Leandro, California with its nice weather. We even have electric scooter rental services like Bird and Lime that make it fun, easy, and convenient to ride short distances around town. Unfortunately, scooter riders have very little to protect them when they get in an accident with a larger vehicle. As such, scooter accident injuries can be severe, and you may need to work with an attorney to file a claim and make sure you get the compensation you deserve. 

Dog Bite Accidents

California has some of the most strict laws concerning dog attacks in the country. Unfortunately, that doesn’t stop these tragic and traumatic accidents from happening. If you were attacked and bitten by someone else’s dog, you may be able to file a claim against them to recover compensation. Let our experienced personal injury lawyers at Sally Morin help you win the settlement you deserve. 

Dangerous Roadways and Intersections in San Leandro

Though San Leandro has much to offer, it is situated near a major metropolitan area, which means there can often be issues with traffic congestion and accidents. In fact, the East Bay Area of Alameda County, right where San Leandro sits, is home to some of the deadliest roads in the state. 

I-80 and I-880, which connect San Leandro to Oakland and San Francisco, are ranked as some of the most dangerous stretches of highway in California. I-80 comes in second place for the most dangerous roadway in California, and I-880 ranks as the 33rd most deadly stretch of road. There are often fatal accidents reported on these two roadways every year.  

What if I’m Not Sure Whether I Have a Case?

We often get clients wondering if they have a valid personal injury case or not. And if you are wondering the same, we’re here to help you understand your options. 

Having a solid foundation for a personal injury case can depend on a couple of different things, such as who was at fault and if there is sufficient evidence to prove that someone else’s negligence directly caused the accident and your injuries. 

In most cases, if someone else’s negligence caused you harm, it is worth your time to pursue a claim. When someone else acts negligently, you have a right to take legal action against them to recover compensation. 

However, even if you know someone else was negligent, you will also need the evidence to prove this in order to win your case. This is why it’s important to work with an attorney who can help you gather evidence and build a strong case against the guilty party. 

The four primary ways to prove you have a valid case include:

  1. Showing that another party owed you a Duty of Care
  2. Showing that the party committed a Breach of Conduct by acting negligently
  3. Showing that the party’s negligence had a Causal Effect, which means it was the direct cause of your injuries
  4. Demonstrating that you suffered substantial Damages as a result of your injuries

What Kind of Compensation Could I Recover?

The compensation you can recover will depend on the individual circumstances involved in your case. However, the primary factors that will help insurance companies or the court determine how much you are owed are the damages you have suffered. 

These damages that you can recover in a personal injury case include:

  • Special damages: Your special damages may include car loss, property damage, medical bills, and lost earnings.
  • General damages: Your general damages are more abstract and may include pain, inconvenience, distress, loss of hobbies, and loss of a lifestyle with your loved ones.

If you have been in an accident and are suffering losses that are affecting your life and your finances, it’s important that you speak with an attorney as soon as possible. The sooner you reach out, the sooner your case can be resolved. At Sally Morin, we will do everything within our power to ensure the best possible outcome.
