Rooted in Community. Committed to You.
Great Oaks Lawyers was founded on a simple belief — people facing difficult legal situations deserve a trusted advisor who explains things plainly and puts their interests first.
A San Jose Firm, Not a Settlement Mill
When you call Great Oaks Lawyers, you reach a law firm — not a call center, an intake service, or a case manager reading from a script.
We are a San Jose firm, based at Great Oaks Boulevard, serving clients throughout Santa Clara County, the Bay Area, and Northern California. Our attorneys handle estate planning, probate, real estate, and litigation alongside personal injury — which means our injury clients get lawyers accustomed to courtrooms, paperwork-heavy proceedings, and the long game, not just demand letters.
Our personal injury practice is led by Lincoln Tran, the firm's Head of Litigation and a former insurance defense attorney. That background shapes how we build every claim: we know how adjusters evaluate cases, what defense counsel will argue, and what it takes to move an insurer off a lowball number.
How We Work
- You're never just a case. We take time to understand your situation — your family, your work, your worries — before giving advice.
- Plain English, always. No jargon, no runaround. We explain each step so you can make confident, informed decisions.
- Responsive when it matters. Clients consistently mention how quickly we return calls, texts, and emails. Read their reviews.
- Honest assessments. If you don't need a lawyer, we'll tell you. If your case has problems, we'll tell you that too — and what we'd do about them.
- Thorough to the end. From coverage research at the start to lien negotiation at the close, the details are where recoveries are won.
Consultations in English & Vietnamese
Our attorneys are available to meet with clients in English and Vietnamese (Tiếng Việt), so you can discuss your situation in the language you're most comfortable with. We meet in person at our San Jose office, by phone, or by video — whatever works best for you, with no difference in the quality of the consultation.
Where We Practice
We are based in Santa Clara County, with experience in courts throughout the Bay Area and across California, including Sacramento, San Joaquin, and Orange County. For estate planning, probate, and real estate matters, visit the main Great Oaks Lawyers website.
