About Haley Law Offices
When you’ve been injured in an accident, you need an attorney who will be deeply invested in obtaining justice for your case. Personal injury settlements don’t take place with a defendant–they take place with an insurance company. Going toe-to-toe with an insurer’s legal defense team demands a lawyer who is diligent and experienced. Haley Law Offices is exactly that.
Our firm’s track record of experience speaks for itself. Frederick Haley opened the doors here in 1955 with a commitment to fighting on behalf of ordinary people. Today, Frederick’s son Matthew, with his own strong legal history that can be traced back to the early 1980s, carries on the fight for justice.
Haley Law Offices knows that the outcome in a personal injury case will be dependent on a lot of little details. Getting those details requires knowing what questions to ask and what to look for in the investigation of an accident. The final settlement amount may swing on a detailed understanding of just how much money the injured person really stands to lose. It’s often more than what most people think.

Client Testimonials
We're Committed to Fighting on Behalf of People Like You
-
“At the time, Mr Fred Haley handled a case for me. Lucinda G Darling (Cindy) against the Hayward police Dept. Mr. Haley Won and the law was changed what the police department’s were allowed to do. This case set a precedent for the first case ever won against the Police department. Also, the first case ever won for a judge’s wife serving on the jury. This case went clear across the county. It was in all newspapers, TV stations for a full week, as well as Good American, and radio stations. Thank You So Very Much, Mr. Hayley, I will never forget you!”- Cindy J.

Fighting For Northern California
Even beyond experience and diligence, Haley Law Offices takes pride in having compassion for our clients. People who come to us are hurting, in the very literal physical sense. They need a shoulder to lean on and they need to know that their lawyer has their back. The emotional and psychological costs of injury can be as bad, if not worse, than the financial and physical toll. We know how important it is to be there for our clients.
Perhaps we know this because Haley Law Offices is a part of the community. Matthew grew up here in Oakland. After going south to UCLA for college, he returned to the Bay Area to go to law school at the University of San Francisco. His early career was spent at Bay Area firms before he joined up with his father. Matthew Haley and his staff are committed to seeing the people of Oakland, Berkeley, Emeryville, and Contra Costa County treated fairly, because that’s the world they came out of and proudly live in today.

Our client, a medical doctor, suffered a stroke several days after having a massage.
