MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS
Motor vehicle accidents include any incidents or injuries caused by cars, buses, trucks, bicycles, motorcycles, or other motorized vehicles on public roads and highways. With over three million motor vehicle accidents occurring annually in the United States, it's clear that no case is ever simple or straightforward.

Reach out to our office today to schedule a free consultation. We're here to help you secure the compensation you deserve.
WRONGFUL DEATH
A wrongful death occurs when someone's life is taken due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another person, party, or entity. In such cases, dependents, beneficiaries, and others may be eligible to receive financial compensation. These damages serve several purposes: they not only cover lost wages and future earnings but also address emotional pain and suffering. Your settlement can also assist with paying medical bills, funeral, and burial costs.
​
We understand that no amount of money can replace your loved one. However, we are committed to securing the compensation you deserve, including the deceased's lost earnings, income lost due to your emotional distress, loss of companionship, and any expenses related to the injury or death. If someone you care about has been a victim of wrongful or negligent death, reach out to The Law Offices of Joseph W. Campbell.
GOVERNMENT TORT LIABILITY
Many clients feel daunted when the party responsible for their injury or accident is a public or government entity. However, legally, public and government agencies are subject to the same regulations and standards as private individuals or businesses, even if it doesn't always appear that way. Often, our clients approach us after these entities have used aggressive tactics or created the impression that they are beyond the law and that pursuing legal action would be futile. This is simply not the case.
​
In California, legal claims can be made against public or government agencies under certain conditions. However, it is also true that these agencies often escape liability by exploiting technicalities to dismiss an individual's claim. This makes it crucial to hire a Bay Area lawyer with experience in government tort liability claims. Contact The Law Offices of Joseph W. Campbell to schedule a consultation and let us review your case.
THIRD PARTY CLAIMS &
WORKPLACE ACCIDENTS
If you're injured at work, workers' compensation may not be your only avenue for financial recovery, particularly if a third party is responsible for the injury or accident. If negligence or failure to meet health, safety, or industry standards contributed to the injury or wrongful death, you might be eligible to file a third-party claim or workplace liability suit to cover medical costs, lost wages, and compensate for pain and suffering.
​
The legal team at The Law Offices of Joseph W. Campbell is committed to safeguarding our clients' rights and ensuring they aren't exploited by employers or the workers' compensation system. Consulting with an experienced personal injury attorney is crucial in understanding your rights, navigating the complexities, and pursuing any compensation you're entitled to.
PROFESSIONAL NEGLIGENCE
When you hire a professional—whether it’s a contractor, architect, doctor, therapist, or even an attorney—you expect them to uphold a certain standard of service and integrity. When these expectations are not met, that professional should be held responsible. Negligence or malpractice may sometimes occur accidentally, while in other cases it can be intentional and harmful. Regardless, as a consumer, you have the right to seek accountability for any professional negligence.
​
If you or your family has suffered significant physical, emotional, or financial harm due to professional negligence, financial misconduct, or breaches of contract by a lawyer, architect, contractor, financial advisor, or similar professional, reach out to The Law Offices of Joseph W. Campbell. We offer a free consultation to review your case and help you determine the best legal steps to take.
PREMISES LIABILITY
Every state mandates that property owners and occupiers must maintain their premises by ensuring they are free from hazards or debris. This responsibility extends to public walkways adjacent to their property, as well as issues like broken railings or windows. Various entities, including government agencies, amusement parks, and etc. are required to comply with these regulations. If an accident occurs due to negligence, the injured party has the right to file a premises liability lawsuit to seek compensation for medical expenses, emotional distress, lost wages, or other related costs.
​
Premises liability claims can be complex, often involving multiple parties. Therefore, it is crucial to hire an experienced legal team to ensure your case is handled efficiently and isn’t dismissed on technical grounds. It's important to take every possible step to secure a favorable outcome. Contact the Law Offices of Joseph W. Campbell to schedule a free consultation.
