Sacramento Personal Injury Lawyers
Northern California’s Most Trusted Injury Attorneys
At Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora, LLP, we aggressively represent people who have suffered personal injuries or the loss of a loved one in virtually every type of case. We’re known nationally for record-setting results in high-profile and catastrophic injury cases, and we also take pride in pursuing smaller, meritorious non-permanent injury cases for those in need. Our team has been serving clients for more than 35 years, and we work on a contingency fee basis — you pay no fees unless we recover compensation for you.
At DBBWC, we’ve obtained more than a dozen record verdicts in California venues, from San Diego in the south to Siskiyou County in the north, as well as throughout the Bay Area. Over the last 30 years, we’ve attained far more multimillion-dollar verdicts and settlements for our clients than any other firm in Northern California. (This isn’t unsupported bragging, but a fact that can be verified by reviewing our case results on this website.)
We serve clients in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Vietnamese, and Russian/Ukrainian, ensuring that language is never a barrier to justice. Our attorneys have regularly been recognized by leading peer-conferred trial practice organizations, including the Trial Lawyer of the Year award, Super Lawyers, and recognition by U.S. News & World Report as a top firm.
Remarkably, DBBWC is the only firm in the history of the state of California with two lawyers who have received the California State Trial Lawyer of the Year from the American Board of Trial Advocates. We hold membership in the Inner Circle of Advocates, have more than a dozen practicing lawyers recognized by Super Lawyers, and are rated AV Preeminent by Martindale-Hubbell — the highest peer-review rating available. U.S. News & World Report has likewise recognized DBBWC as a top firm every year since it began identifying the country’s leading law firms, and we were named to Best Law Firms 2025, ranked by Best Lawyers.
We believe that every injury victim deserves a full measure of justice – a principle that drives everything we do. Corporate defendants, insurance companies, and their lawyers know our track record, and they take our involvement seriously. They know we have the resources, experience, and tenacity it takes to pursue a full measure of justice for worthy clients in need. We don’t back down. We don’t accept lightweight settlement offers just because it’s the easy thing to do. We fight for our clients at every stage of the process. In February 2026, for example, a jury awarded $18.8 million against the State of California in a state park crosswalk case we litigated — the kind of result that can come from refusing to walk away from a winnable fight.
Whether your case involves a life-altering loss or an injury that may not be permanent or catastrophic in nature, we’re here to protect your rights and handle the battle for you and the people who matter to you. That’s our mission.
With hundreds of years of combined experience, our personal injury attorneys in Sacramento have the knowledge to handle any case, no matter how serious or complex. Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora is home to multiple award-winning attorneys and an excellent team of support staff that is ready to serve you. Ask what we can do for you in a free consultation.

Proven Litigators, Trusted Counsel
When you work with the Sacramento injury lawyers at Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora, LLP, you can rest easier knowing you’re backed by one of the most respected legal teams in Northern California, prepared to fight on your behalf.
Too often, those responsible for a serious injury refuse to fairly compensate the victim or their family. And when they do offer a settlement, it’s often far less than what’s fair. Without the right accident attorney on your side, you may struggle to receive an offer that even covers your past bills, let alone your future economic losses and your pain and suffering. Insurance companies are known to move quickly after an accident, making low initial offers before the full scope of injuries is clear. We don’t accept a settlement offer unless it’s fair and reasonable under the circumstances.
What sets our approach apart is how we prepare. We build every case as if it will go to trial — investing the time and resources most firms won’t. We hire investigators to obtain recorded statements from eyewitnesses and preserve evidence that would otherwise disappear. We work with accident reconstruction professionals to solidify the facts of what happened. And when it comes to medical testimony, we call on physicians who are recognized leaders in their fields — not litigation doctors, but real doctors who can explain in detail the cause of an injury and what the victim is left with. Lawyers, doctors, hospitals, and judges refer cases to us because they know how we work and what we deliver.
Time and again, this preparation and reputation have helped our clients pursue compensation out of court from defendants who fear what a Sacramento jury may award.
A Record of Legal Excellence
Our firm is made up of award-winning attorneys rated among the top in their field, well respected by both peers and clients after decades of work on behalf of the injured. We work to provide the strongest possible representation and experience for those who need our help after an accident or loss of any size.
Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora, LLP has secured more than a dozen record-setting verdicts and settlements over the years, from as far south as San Diego County to the north in Butte and Tehama Counties.
