Negligence Lawyer in Oakland, CA

I first hired Mr. Habbas and his firm to represent me in a car accident case over 10 years ago, and since that time, I have gone back to Mr. Habbas' firm, and I have referred many people to him. These folks immediately respond to you, and they are friendly and trustworthy, and they do everything possible to help you get through tough times. My property damage was handled quickly, and I was very happy with the settlement that I obtained for my injuries.

I was severely hurt in a car accident involving a tractor-trailer that rear-ended my vehicle. Hiring the Habbas & Associates and working with Mr. Habbas and his colleagues was the best decision I ever made. I had two prior lawyers that I was extremely unsatisfied with. I couldn't get a return call, and I didn't know what was going on with my case most of the time. I was very distressed because my bills were piling up and I didn't know what I was going to do. Hiring Mr. Habbas changed everything. His staff and colleagues were responsive, courteous, and helpful in every respect. I obtained access to the medical care I needed, and I was operated on by one of the best back surgeons in the area, although I didn't have medical insurance. The insurance company offered $350,000.00 to settle, and the case went to trial. We received a jury award of $2,554,000.00 plus interest and costs. The insurance company appealed only to cave and pay a total of $3,000,000.00. I am grateful to Mr. Habbas and his colleagues for everything they have done for me.

I suffered serious injuries because a janitor left streaks of water on a tile floor in the hallway of a building, which caused me to slip and fall while exiting from one of my patients' hospital rooms. The insurance company denied the claim, forcing my attorneys, Habbas & Associates, to file a lawsuit. The Habbas firm was very aggressive and thorough. 

They investigated the accident, and they questioned all important witnesses and gathered all of the evidence required to prove negligence. Although my claim was initially denied, a substantial settlement was obtained by the Habbas firm. Prior to this incident, I had never had a personal injury claim, and I never expected to have to hire an attorney to represent me for something like this. 

Mr. Habbas and his staff are efficient, helpful, responsive, and caring. They make you feel at ease. They explain the process, and they keep you up to date. There is no one else I would prefer to have in my corner to protect me.

I was seriously hurt in a car accident that was caused by another motorist, and my airbag didn't deploy. I hired Habbas & Associates to represent me because I wasn't getting anywhere with the insurance company, and I didn't know how to make a claim against the manufacturer of the vehicle or airbags. Mr. Habbas and his staff were amazing. They fully explained all my rights and what they would do, step by step. I felt relieved in having what I felt was a great team of experienced lawyers and staff on my side.

I suffered severe nerve injuries in my face, and with the help of Mr. Habbas, I was able to acquire treatment from some of the best medical doctors in the State. My case was settled at mediation for approximately $950,000.00 within a short time after a lawsuit was filed. I can't say enough about how much Mr. Habbas and his firm care about their clients. I will always refer anyone I know to them.

Omar Habbas will fight for you and give you the best results out of your case, I know. They take good care of their clients. I’ve never been happier. Thank you to the entire team at Habbas & Associates. You are highly recommended.

My wife and I got rear-ended by a DUI male driver in his mid-twenties. We suffered neck injuries and were rushed to the Emergency Dept in Natividad Hospital in Salinas, CA. One of my children searched for an Injury Lawyer who has a great reputation in this kind of case, and she chose HABBAS & ASSOCIATES in San Jose, CA. 

We met with Mr. Hoang Le, and he explained the process. Mr. Le and the rest of the staff of Habbas & Associates were caring and showed concern for our welfare. It took a while for us to recover from those injuries, but with Mr. Le's assistance and with constant follow-ups with the insurance companies, we felt secure and less stressed. He answered all of our questions every time we had one, and that's why we are so happy and blessed to have Habbas and Associates on our side. I strongly recommend them.

Prior to working with Habbas & Associates, I had never worked with an attorney before, and I had never been in a car accident before. A friend of mine suggested I contact them, so, of course, I am going to take a friend’s suggestions, especially since he had great things to say. I was extremely anxious and hesitant to contact an attorney, especially since I have never dealt with such a well-advertised firm as Habbas. 

Laura Ajlouny worked with me through the whole process. From the first phone call, she completely reassured me of my decision and was extremely helpful, patient, and understanding with my claim. She was especially understanding of my anxiousness in dealing with an attorney for the first time. I am so happy to have had her as my attorney. 

The experience I had with Laura was exceptional, and I will 100% refer her and Habbas to anyone seeking an attorney for an accident. She made the experience a great one.

I had retained the services of Habbas, Nasseri & Associates when my mother-in-law was hit by a car while she was on an evening walk in our neighborhood. She had to undergo surgery and was wheelchair-bound for some time. The case manager Hoang Le stopped by our home multiple times while my mother-in-law's mobility was restricted and was extremely helpful, responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He managed everything from getting reports from the Sheriff's office to managing the case paperwork and follow-up with the hospital and ambulance services. 

Mr. Habbas himself called over the phone and explained all the legal options, after which, in due course of time, the case was settled. We are extremely happy with the seamless experience that they provided. All in all, you'd wish you never had to run into any injury situations, but if you do, then Habbas law firm is the place to go.

Omar Habbas and his team were very professional, efficient, and extremely effective. They fought hard to get the best results on my difficult case and always kept me up to date with every step in the entire process. I’m so glad I found this law firm and extremely happy with the results. Very highly recommend them to family and friends. If you or a loved one needs help, don’t hesitate to call them!

I was in a car accident recently, and was referred to Habbas and Associates by my boss. I called and I spoke with Jessica who made everything so easy from the beginning. She kept me informed throughout the entire process with phone calls and emails. I really appreciate that she gave me the option to pick up my settlement check at either one of their offices or have it mailed to me. If you’re looking for a personal injury attorney, you should call Habbas & Assoc. i’m definitely going to recommend Habbas to all of my friends and family!

We weren’t planning to get a lawyer, but on top of my daughter’s injury, the situation was overwhelming. Laura Ajlouny at Habbas was sympathetic, experienced and sharp! She took care of handling both insurance companies, the police department, and getting all the info needed from the hospital. We ended up getting more compensation for my daughter’s distress than we would have on our own. And we only had to pay for legal fees out of the compensation we received. It was a no brainer. I wholeheartedly recommend Laura and her team.

Great law firm they took my personal injury case on when other law firms would not and obtained a very good settlement. Very responsive throughout the process and addressed all my concerns in a timely fashion. I give them my highest recommendation.

I hired Ms. Ajlouny to represent me as a pedestrian who was struck by a motor vehicle in October 2025. One of the reasons I hired her was because she had over 30 years of experience as a PI attorney. I have done over 30 years of paralegal work and I have learned that some of the best attorneys are those with the most experience. In a little over a month, Ms. Ajlouny secured the best possible settlement I could ever get. Statistics show that having a good PI attorney usually results in settlements that are 3 - 4 X greater than in pro per cases. I'd like to add that Ms. Ajlouny always kept me posted about my case and was very professional as well. Thank you and I hope my review helps.

Habbas & Associates were great as they helped me through an accident and injury case! We were dealing with Tesla insurance who were very slow but the Habbas attorneys stayed vigilant and I eventually got paid out. Thanks to them and I would definitely recommend using them for your accident/injury claims!!

If you've got into an accident and want a lawyer that actually cares for your well-being then you need to go to Habbas & Associates! I've had an absolutely wonderful experience with them and they were on the ball immediately with scheduling doctors appointment and gathering evidence of the accident. They maintained concerned about my health the whole time and always asked how I was doing during this process. They got me the absolute highest amount they could in my case and didn't let the at faults party defense lawyers talk them into taking substantially less amount. Thank you Habbas and Associates for all your hard work and care!

Laura Ajlouny and the Habbas & Associates team were supportive, attentive, and truly had my best interests at heart. They guided me through the process with care and professionalism—and delivered results. Highly recommend!
