No two personal injury cases are the same, and each requires specialized attention and skills. Our team handles some of the most common types of personal injury claims in Oakland, including:
Car Accidents: From rear-end collisions to fender benders, our attorneys will help you earn the compensation you deserve.
Truck Accidents: Truck collisions can be devastating, and we're here to help you through every step of the claim-filing process.
Motorcycle Accidents: Motorcyclists are at a greater risk of serious injuries in an accident, and our team will make sure your rights as a biker are protected.

Bicycle Accidents: Bicycle accidents can lead to serious injuries, and our team is here to help you get on the road to recovery
Slip and Fall Accidents: Injuries from an unmarked wet floor or a workplace accident can leave you with long-lasting pain. Proper legal representation ensures you get the compensation you deserve.

Rideshare Accidents: Filing a claim against a rideshare service, such as Lyft or Uber, can be more complex than other car accidents. Our team has years of experience handling these cases for our clients.
When a pedestrian was initially offered $0 after getting hit by a car, our team stepped in and earned them $726,000 in compensation.
A slip and fall victim was originally denied a settlement offer. Our team was able to push back and help them earn a $1 million settlement.
After a truck accident, the victim was originally offered $125,000. When they turned to us, we were able to increase that settlement to $1.5 million.
1. Seek Medical Care
Contact emergency services and get urgent medical care. No matter the severity of the injuries, seeing a doctor gives you medical documentation of your injuries that you can use when filing your claim.
2. Document The Incident
Take photos of the scene, record your injuries, and get any eyewitness statements.
3. File a Police Report
Work with the police officer on the scene to file a formal police report. Be as detailed as possible in your testimony without trying to point fingers at anybody.
4. Don't Speak with Insurers
If the other party's insurance company tries to reach out to you, you have no obligation to talk to them. In many cases, they will try to pressure you into settling for a lower compensation amount than you deserve.
5. Contact a Personal Injury Lawyer in Oakland
Get in touch with Compass Law Group, LLP to start filing your claim and negotiating with the insurance companies.
The physical and emotional injuries from a serious accident can linger with you for months or even years after the incident. Depending on the severity, you could be left with permanent damage that impacts your quality of life. Common injuries include:
Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs)
Spinal Cord Injuries
Fractures
Burns
Soft Tissue Damage
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Depression
Anxiety
California is a comparative negligence state, meaning that fault for an incident can be split between multiple parties. However, partial fault doesn't mean you lose out on your compensation. Your degree of fault is subtracted from your potential settlement amount. For example, 20% fault means you can still earn up to 80% of your maximum compensation.
Not only that, but the state also has a deadline by which you can file your claim, known as the statute of limitations. Victims typically have 2 years from the date of the accident to file their claim and receive compensation. The exact timeline can vary depending on the specifics of the incident.
Insurance companies will fight tooth and nail to try and decrease your compensation as much as possible. They may try delaying the negotiations, giving lowball offers, or even denying your claim altogether.
Having the right legal team on your side can help you combat these tactics and make sure you get your rightful settlement. Our team knows every trick in the book, and we're ready to push back against insurance companies.
At Compass Law Group, LLP, we handle every step of the claim-filing process so you don't have to worry about it. From gathering evidence to negotiating with insurance companies, we'll take care of the heavy lifting. Our team will take care of:
Evidence Gathering: We'll start collecting evidence such as photos and medical records to build a strong claim against the other insurance companies.
Gathering Expert Witnesses: Our team will bring in expert witnesses to attest to the details of the accident and help support your case.
Negotiations: We know how to handle insurance companies, and we'll take charge in leading the negotiations for you.
Litigation Preparations: If negotiations aren't productive, our team will prepare to follow you into the courtroom and fight for your rights as a personal injury victim.
