Medical Malpractice Lawyers in Oakland
Fighting for Full Compensation for Medical and Surgical Harm for Residents of Northern California
Doctors take an oath to do no harm, but mistakes happen nonetheless, causing serious injuries and even death. Since 1955, Haley Law Offices has helped injured patients obtain compensation for injuries inflicted by healthcare providers. Medical malpractice cases are notoriously difficult to prosecute because the complexity of modern medicine makes it difficult to prove negligence was the precise cause of a patient’s injury.
Haley Law Offices is an established and respected firm with the knowledge and resources to manage medical malpractice cases, and to take them all the way to trial when necessary to secure a fair outcome. Call (510) 990-9290 today.
Comprehensive Legal Support for Medical Errors and Injuries
Haley Law Offices P.C. provides aggressive representation for a wide array of healthcare provider errors, including:
- Anesthesia errors — Problems range from allowing a patient to awaken during surgery to depriving the patient of oxygen, leading to brain injury.
- Birth injuries — Can affect the child or the mother. Common injuries to the baby include Erb’s palsy, cerebral palsy, brain damage from severe hypoxia, and fractured collar bones.
- Failure to monitor — Patients left unattended can unnecessarily succumb to treatable symptoms.
- Medical errors — Primary care physicians and specialists can fail to diagnose symptoms, misread test results, or fail to order necessary tests, allowing a patient’s condition to go untreated.
- Medication errors — Prescribers can make mistakes in ordering medication, assigning the dosage, communicating the order, warning of possible side effects, and failing to check for interactions.
- Surgical negligence — Surgeons can make incision errors that lead to bleeding or nerve damage, leave objects like sponges in the patient’s body, operate on the wrong site or side of a patient, or even perform the wrong procedure.
- Postoperative infection — Unsanitary conditions or failure to observe protocols can spread infection to vulnerable patients during or after surgery.
These, and many other preventable errors, can lead to serious injury and wrongful death.

“Haley Law Offices is not only professional, experienced, and knowledgeable, but also extremely trustworthy and dedicated. Matt Haley and his son, Michael Haley, took my claim seriously and were both very attentive, diplomatic, and very helpful in settling my case. Katie, their paralegal, was also very timely and responsive whenever I had to get in touch with their office. I was originally researching for a law firm, and I had contacted Terry Buller. Terry, Matt, Michael, and Katie all worked together to create a most just claim, and we made it through the finish line with flying colors. They take no bull; no ifs, ands, or buts about it! Look no further when hiring a law firm. From start-to-finish, everything was transparent, respectful, organized, and well thought-through. I cannot thank Haley Law Offices enough! Thank you for protecting me and for supporting me throughout the entirety of this matter. Five stars? How about (10)!”- Alison M.

“Mathew, Michael (attorneys), and Katie (paralegal) exceeded all expectations in handling my car accident injury case. The insurance company was unwilling to work with us for the first 2 years of the lawsuit, but they didn’t give despite not receiving a settlement offer until 1 week before the trial date. In the end, they were able to get the insurance company to settle for the full policy amount, which I was not expecting. On top of their diligence with the case, they were extremely helpful/friendly throughout the entire process,s explaining how the system works and keeping my spirits up despite the best efforts of the insurance company. I can’t recommend Haley Law offices enough.”- Cornelius H.

“Mr Haley took my case so seriously and responsibly. He evaluated my case very carefully. Although the final assessment concluded that he did not see the odds of winning the case, I thought the reasons they detailed were convincing. I am deeply grateful for spending his precious time and putting a big effort to review my case. By the way, the paralegal Katie was quite nice too.”- L.Y.

“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.
