Recognized as one of California’s premier plaintiffs’ law firms, the Dolan Law Firm represents clients in the San Francisco Bay Area and across California. Since I founded the firm in 1995, we have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for our clients. Many of our cases involve car/Uber, bicycle, and motorcycle crashes, and pedestrians injured or killed by cars and trucks. We also represent employees in harassment, wrongful termination, and whistleblower cases, as well as families whose loved ones were harmed at senior or nursing homes. On behalf of courageous clients, I am spearheading many of the most significant and challenging lawsuits filed in California state and federal courts against insurance companies, Fortune 500 companies, cities and other public agencies, and product manufacturers. I am proud to have been selected repeatedly as one of the Top 25 Plaintiffs' Lawyers in California by the Daily Journal and to have received honors and awards from numerous other publications including Best Lawyers, Super Lawyers and U.S. News.

Great lawyer!!
Chris Dolan and his team did a great job on my case. He was very helpful and made this difficult time as easy as possible for me. I strongly recommend Dolan and his team if you find yourself in need of a good personal injury lawyer.
