Former California State Bar Prosecutor and Los Angeles County District Attorney B.G.T. endorses attorney David D. Moriel After parting ways with my prior lawyer, I retained Mr. Moriel to represent my in a Family Law case which started with my wife filing a restraining order trying to get me kicked out of our home and ordering me to stay away from her. Following an evidentiary hearing with multiple witnesses, we prevailed. Based on my experience, Mr. Moriel handled my hearing like a seasoned trial lawyer.

The review is for 5 stars because it is as good as it gets. It isn't perfect and there are a lot of issues but now that I have way more experience than I ever wanted and a lot of research and insight into the very messed up broken system that we call Work Comp, I can tell you in all honesty that almost all of the problems I encountered from AnP were related to the way the system works and the insurance causing issues and not them specifically. When I did have a complaint it was addressed and handled. Phone calls were returned and the partners themselves would handle it. I requested specifically that Colleen Pratt show up for my trial even though a junior named Josh had done a good job at my hearing because I wanted the experience she had and I trusted her after several interactions. She did show up and did a great job! I started this nightmare with no knowledge of the WC system at all and just found the first atty that came up on the internet because the insurance company told me I needed one. I wasn't suing and just wanted to get back to work but they said the prolonged injury meant paperwork that would be too complicated without legal guidance. So I got the first one and they were beyond horrible. I won't go into great detail because I am not reviewing them here. I had them for 1 year and things got worse. I finally had enough and found another smaller attorney in the hopes that they would at least answer the phone. They were nicer and seemed more honest but still didn't get much movement. I finally changed them after I tried to call every day for a week crying because I was receiving no money or treatment and couldn't work. I was desperate as I could not pay my rent. I broke down on the phone and they were just callous and I never received a return call from the atty himself. I figured if he didn't care about me then I didn't care about him and I looked for another one. This time I had way more knowledge and did lots of research and found AnP. I called and got put on the phone with Ainbinder right away. He made an appt himself to see me the next day. He spent 30 minutes with me. He took my files and was brutally honest which I like. I signed on with them and in just a few weeks starting receiving treatment and weekly payments again. I have been with them less than a year and Colleen Pratt just settled my case and pissed off the insurance because they didn't want to pay so much. I can now have my life back and move forward to deal with my injury etc. myself thanks to AnP. If only I had gone with them first then I wouldn't be so bad off. Lesson learned For those unfortunate souls who have a work comp situation, keep in mind, it is the government and the way people have voted that have created this disaster and the attorneys have to navigate that. It isn't always their fault. If you do have to deal then go with AnP and trust what they tell you to do. None of it moves quickly but they at least try to help you.

My brother and I hired David Moriel to represent us in a trust dispute. My brother and I were entitled to nothing under the trust. Mr. Moriel filed suit claiming that the real estate was never put into the trust and that the real estate had to pass through probate. And as a result, the trustee was forced to settle the litigation by paying my brother 1/3 each of the value of the real estate. From nothing to one third. Job well done. William H.

Both attorneys Colleen Pratt and Michael Ainbinder are incredible attorneys who show compassion for all of their clients and are very receptive to making sure all your needs are met. I would recommend them to anyone who is seeking a personal injury or workers compensation attorney.

Sam was very easy to work with. He is extremely knowledgeable in tax law. He listens and takes the time to ensure that you understand your situation. He was fast and efficient. If he tells you that something will be done, it is. I highly recommend him.

Mr. Moriel was very professional, efficient and honest. He assisted me with my divorce case, he helped me in a very difficult time. It was a pleasure working with Mr. Moriel.
