I injured my back last year at my job and although it took a long road to get here we reached a settlement . The primary person that I worked with was Johanna Hernandez not only was she professional, very compassionate, she is very smart and knowledgeable and got to back to me in a reasonable length of time . As most people know Workmen's Comp.'s hard to prove and hard to fight and they Got the job done ! I'm happy with the outcome so I want to thank them from the bottom of my heart

Filing a bankruptcy can be frightening and overwhelming on many levels.
Tracy took that fear away the first meeting that we had.
I felt very secure filing my bankruptcy with Mrs. Briles and would highly recommend anyone that might be in that situation to contact her for professional and immediate service.

When I got injured, I followed all the rules with WC. I had no idea what I was doing and was left like a mouse on a wheel. I hired Felicia and things started to happen immediately...no more wheels. I got in to see a specialist and got the help I needed. If I asked for something of my doctor asked for something it was handled immediately or Felicia was on it. I cannot recommend Felicia strongly enough if it weren't for her I would still be playing games with WC and getting no where.... Felicia thank you so much for everything you did for me!!!!

I am very satisfied with the settlement William Seiniger Jr. negotiated as compensation for my injury. William and his staff kept me advised of the status of my claim by phone, e-mail, text, and face to face meetings throughout the process. They also explained to me their strategy, answered all my questions, and explained how they determine what a fair and reasonable outcome would be.

I was devastated when I lost my husband of 30 years and our son and daughter lost their father in a traffic accident. I knew in my heart it was not my husband's fault for his own death. It was a difficult case. Breck and his team were extremely considerate of the situation and my feelings. They were compassionate and helpful. They exhausted all avenues to help us. They were amazing! Thank you!!

Breck and his team did a fantastic job with obtaining a better-than-expected resolution to the legal/financial I was faced with. More than that, the level of personal customer service I received was exceptional.
Breck always took the time to respond to me personally, frequently late into the evening and on weekends.
Even though my small case undoubtedly represented a very minor part of the firm's caseload, they understood that to me it was very important.
While I certainly hope not to need any further legal representation anytime in the near future, if I do, Seiniger Law is where I'm headed.

After my injury I desperately sought a way to deal directly with my employer and hoped the situation wouldn't end up in litigation, however after realizing that a fair end was not feasible I was so glad to find Siobhan. She walked me through the steps and helped me to stay calm and focused on the importance of a fair and honest settlement. I am certain with any other firm or lawyer the process couldn't have gone so fast or smoothly. Thank you so much.

Very detail oriented, knowledgeable. Added bonus is that he can suggest what is best to cover/address from his experience in personal injury. Highly recommend.

It has been 3 years since Jeffrey Wolfert took my case, and I am Happy to Report that my case has come to a close. It's was a real bumpy ride, however Mr. Wolfert and his staff stood by me and gave me the support and attention my case needed. Mr. Wolfert was able to secure a substantial settlement on my behalf, I wanted a Compromise and Release settlement and that he got for me, with my up front Medical Set Aside, along with the annual payout for Medical Services, I will NEVER have to go through the Insurance Company EVER to receive the ongoing care I will need for the rest of my life. As far as Workers Comp goes, I feel that I have been made whole. Mr. Wolfert put a lot of time and attention in my case, he is worth his weight in GOLD. Not Only is he a Great attorney, He is a Great Person. Mr. Wolfert is a personable and kind individual and is Always On Top of his Game.
The Workers Comp System is so broken and in favor of the Insurance Companies at the moment, I urge anyone who is in a workers comp case to get proactive in contacting their representatives to effect change in the current laws that are stacked up against the injured worker and in favor of the Insurance Companies. Every Voice Counts.
I highly recommend Jeffrey Wolfert, Esq. for anyone who finds themselves in the Black Hole of the CA Workers Comp System

Mr. Wolfert handled a Worker’s Compensation death claim for our family. From the first time we contacted Mr. Wolfert, he was very informative and provided basic information as to the claim. After initially working with the lawyers for the company, we determined to hire Mr. Wolfert to represent our interests. His expertise and judgment were invaluable. He kept in contact through each aspect of the case, was responsive to any inquiry we had, and handled everything in a very professional, competent and caring manner. Mr. Wolfert kept contact with the Court and opposing attorneys to move this case quickly, which was especially remarkable given the fact that the pandemic delayed many court matters. The case was scheduled for a telephone trial in July of 2020, and with the comprehensive briefing provided by Mr. Wolfert, the case settled the morning of trial, after discussion among the attorneys and the Judge, for an amount that was more than we anticipated and had been offered by opposing Counsel in any pretrial settlement discussions. I cannot state enough the extent of the valuable service that was provided by Mr. Wolfert. It is without hesitation that I would recommend hiring him.

I am so happy I hired this attorney. I have a brain tumor and was in dire need of a great attorney. He did not disappoint me. I was denied once from the Social Security ministration. This attorney was very helpful and detailed in every step of the way and with my shock I received my Social Security administration award letter soon after hiring this attorney. He also explained to me afterwards who do you go to and talk with if I had any difficulties with the Social Security ministration. This office and this attorney went above and beyond to help me. Anyone that has a new case or an old case will never go wrong in hiring this attorney.

Normally, I don't write reviews (as a busy working mom of a toddler..time is precious). However, my recent experience with attorney Andrew Shaffer was exceptional - above and beyond what I could have expected from an initial consultation. I recently had an initial consultation with Attorney Shaffer (following social distancing & mask of course) on behalf of my father. I was left thoroughly impressed and grateful for the following reasons:
1) Not once did he try to "market" or "sell" his service...which sometimes I get the sense when you contact some attorneys.
2 ) He was very patient - really took the time to review the facts related to my father's case and explained them to me in a way that I can understand.
3) At several points - he even frankly let me know that "given how close to the end the case is..it's not worth it for my father to pay him the fee. Instead, he simply offered me advice on how I can proceed with the case."
4) I can tell he knows his facts and is experienced with the complexity of the Worker's Compensation laws as well as which doctors would be most favorable in case of QME, etc.
Overall, unlike some other consultations I had with other attorneys (which typically took maybe ~15-20 min tops), Andrew spent almost an hour simply just providing me advice on how I can best proceed with the case on my own, if I so choose.
I'm a firm believer that actions speaks louder than words. Many individuals, attorneys included, can promise you a lot of things. However, at the end of the day, I think it's what they actually do, especially when they're not obligated to, that really says a lot about them.
For anyone who is unfortunate to suffer a work related injury, I really highly recommend that you contact Attorney Andrew Shaffer first. I only wished I had knew to do that at the very on-set. Schedule an initial consultaiton and see for yourself, don't just take my word.
In these crazy pandemic times, it's really comforting to know there are still people out there who are so willing to simply provide help.

Andrew Shaffer has to be one of the best Workman’s Comp attorneys in Santa Clara County.
Honest, hardworking, patient, kind, fair, and he closed my case for me. It’s wasn’t easy or quick, but Andrew made it happen. I’m forever grateful, and I will recommend him every time.

I had two previous lawyers prior to working with the McDuffey law firm, I wasted two years with zero results. Within 2 months of taking my case, we had some progress and within six months were already successful with a portion of the case. I appreciate the time, attention and dedication both Brad Medcalf and Tim McDuffey have given my case. I firmly believe that we would not have progressed in my case without their expertise. I can say with absolute confidence, I would recommend the McDuffey Law Firm for personal injury cases.

Tim McDuffey won my accident case for 1 Million, Thank God my mother in law found him, he is truly an honorable Attorney, and it shows thru his work, he made sure all my bills were paid, so I did not have to deal with creditors, he would always listen to my concerns and worries with a gentle heart, he truly takes his cases to heart, not only was he my accident attorney, but my disability advocate, and to this day 5 years later, he still listens to my concern about disabilities, and advices me on what action to take,Tim you’re an amazing Attorney, a loyal friend to talk to, and I think of Tim as a God sent Angel in my life, thanks for your advice 5 years later even though he is not getting paid,he is always there with open ears to rely on, and nowadays you can't rely on much, but I have had the experience with Tim and Michelle, both of them are truly amazing together as a team.

I thought about handling my workers' compensation case on my own. The insurance company offered me $12,000 to settle my case. i was thinking about taking it. I knew Tim from school. The visit was free so i went in to talk to him. Tim pointed out some things about my case that i was not even aware of. I hired Tim and he got my case settled for $60,000. I'm so glad i did not settle the case on my own.

Michael Ready represented me in my workers’ compensation case. He is very timely with correspondence, returning calls and messages. Attorney Ready never once dropped the ball throughout the nearly 3 years of litigation. He fought hard for me and was a trusted and devoted lawyer. I found him to be dedicated and appreciated how he would tell it like it is. His staff was wonderful and helpful.
He got a great result for me and I am happy he was my lawyer. I can recommend him as an excellent attorney.

Every step of the way, during my 2+ years journey through the process, Attorney Ready listened to me and my concerns, explained the law, and reviewed options with me. He is kind, patient, and respectful. He also has a wonderful, attentive, and very supportive staff. With Attorney Ready’s expertise and strong negotiating skills, he very strategically and successfully managed my case resulting in a very positive outcome.

Although ultimately, Don could not take my case, he was very informative discussing a concern I have with my current employer.

The workers comp process is a lot more difficult than I would have ever imagined and I am glad to have found a good lawyer. Attorney Fred Beer help guide me through a long a difficult time. His advice and knowledge help to ease the stress and allow me to focus on my recovery.
He answered all of my questions and handled my concerns from beginning to end. All e-mails and phone calls were returned promptly and any issues were addressed right away. In addition he kept me well informed as to what would or may come next, staying on top of the situation all of the time.
Being properly advised of my rights I was able to get the best treatment possible and he even helped me to research doctors that were well suited to treat my injuries. After any procedures Attorney Beer followed up to make sure I was doing well and that everything went well.
From day one he made sure I received a fair wage during my time off and stayed on top of the insurance company when they fell behind in payments. He also made sure all medical bills were taken care of and in the end got me a fair settlement. All in all I would recommend him to anyone that has to go through the workers comp process. A competent attorney that will always look out for your best interest.

Mr. Parker made the bankruptcy process easy and very painless. I had lived with a crippling amount of debt for over ten years and felt that I deserved a fresh start. After the free consultation call I felt confident that Mr. Parker was the right attorney for me. He helped determine that I was eligible for Chapter 7. He made me feel comfortable and explained everything about the bankruptcy process in a clear and concise way that I understood, without all the confusing legal jargon one might expect from the court system. I lived with a lot of shame as a result of my debt. After meeting with him the first time I was able to provide a huge box of bills that had piled up over the years and he painstakingly went through every single document to compile my bankruptcy petition. As of yesterday, all of my debt has been discharged, and I'm very pleased by Mr. Parker's services. I'm finally free of the burden of excess debt and happy to have a clean slate! I would highly recommend Mr. Ken Parker if you're considering filing bankruptcy.

Two years ago I used Ken Parker for my bankruptcy. My case went without a single problem. Ken was courteous, informative, and patient with my lack of knowledge. He was quick to return my phone calls and emails. I felt confident in his expertise and trusted that everything would go well. But what I really want to say is about a conversation we had just last week. I am thinking of buying a new car and so I called Ken to see if there was anything I should know. He gave me considerable (free!) time on the phone and did not insist that I make an appointment. But best of all, even from two years ago he remembered who I was and was able to find the details of my case easily. I was very impressed with his friendliness and willingness to help me, even two years later. I would very much recommend Ken Parker.

Although I haven't hired Mr. Stein, he has helped me with legal questions on Avvo. If I lived in south Florida, he would definately be my choice for representation. He knew exactly what questions to ask me and his response time would be impossible to improve upon. Words cannot adequately express my appreciation. To suffer the loss of a parent in a "questionable, suspicious" death and then not be allowed to grieve due to continuous Probate problems is a living nightmare.

Looking for a lawyer is like trying to find an honest car salesperson. Hard to find! Mr. Stopper was recommended to me by another law firm that said he would have the expertise to handle my car accident case. From our first conversation, he told me to have "Faith" and that's what I did. He worked effortlessly and diligently to ensure I was awarded what I rightfully deserved due to my injuries. Him and his team was informative and walked me through the process along with periodic updates. He provided an outstanding service to the point he knew what was best for me and my case! I can return back to rehab and move forward with the next chapter in my life. Thank you for all that you have done!

I was referred to some great doctors through the process of my case. Kenneth is awesome and I have nothing to say but great things.

Finding Kenneth to help settle my DBA claim was the best thing I ever did! I had hired two different attorneys prior to finding Kenneth. They were the reasons people make jokes about attorneys. Kenneth quickly went to work on my case, kept me informed each step of the way, explained clearly how the system works, and was always available to help me with even the smallest details! His office staff were awesome and supportive as well. They frequently reached out to me to see how I was doing. When the time came to negotiate the financial settlement, he was very well prepared and he negotiated a settlement that was triple what I thought I would get! He is a kind and compassionate man and always treated me with respect. I was amazed that he could organize all the materials and medical records that had accumulated over several years before I found him. He understands how the opposition works as he had once worked on their team. His experience working the other side of the isle gave him a clear understanding of the best way to handle the claim that would get me the best medical care as well as build a case for a large settlement. I will always be indebted to him for the work he has done to get a settlement that will allow me to have the best financial and medical future possible. He is the genuine article, and from my previously negative experience with attorneys that never returned calls, lost documents, kept me in a holding pattern for years, Kenneth helped me regain my faith in our legal system. He quickly organized all the documents and moved my medical treatment forward. He advocated for the treatment that I felt would benefit me the most. He also patiently explained the DBA to doctors so that they would document my case clearly and bill the appropriate entities. When I had questions, he would answer them clearly and quickly. I never felt like just a claim number. Working in a war zone brings its own set of issues, and he was able to restore hope and optimism. He kept me informed about any and all progress on my claim. I will always be grateful that he was my attorney! More importantly, I will always consider him a dear friend.

Jason took me through my bankruptcy case. At such a difficult time, he was extremely understanding and compassionate about my situation. He also made sure I was prepared for all the things that would or could come up throughout the process. Because of this, nothing in the process felt like a painful surprise, which made it much easier to get through psychologically. He was readily available to answer my questions, made me feel comfortable even asking potentially dumb questions, and had tremendous patience. With other professionals, you can sometimes feel like the lawyer etc is trying to keep your appointment as short as possible and they want to move on already to their next client. Jason took his time, never made me feel rushed. He also went above and beyond in so many ways. For instance, he drove all the way out to the south suburbs to meet me in person for our first meeting. He also called ahead to the courthouse because I was concerned that they might not let me bring my laptop. I had no expectation nor had I asked him to do those things - he just offered/did them for me.
I highly, highly recommend Jason Shimotake.

Divorce is never an easy option. It may be the right option, but it is still never easy. The changes in life - particularly if there are children involved - demand sacrifices be made by both parents to preserve a fundamental level of respect between each other so that co-parenting can be as effective as possible. This is why, if you must seek legal counsel, you should choose Ben Wishart. Ben recognizes the importance of maintaining as much stability as possible in the children’s lives, and his preferred approach to divorce maintains a level of respect and fairness for both parties. If the divorce is contentious – as some inevitably become – Ben is well positioned to turn up the heat. Fortunately that has not been the case for me – yet – but I’m comfortable knowing that, with Ben’s guidance, I am prepared.

Wishart & Associates was referred to me from a family friend who received excellent representation from the firm. I received outstanding representation from Ben Wishart, who took my very complicated divorce and made the process a breeze. With complete dedication to my case, attention to detail, professionalism, and sensitivity towards the emotional aspect of the process, he took care of every step along the way. He not only filed my divorce but the separation of assets/debts, and all the other paperwork that a divorce entails. I could have never done it myself. Soon after I attained Ben again for a paternity/child custody case, and again I experienced incredible representation. Very knowledgeable, firm with negotiation and a strong advocate, I am very thankful for what he has accomplished for me and my daughter. His hard work is greatly appreciated. I strongly recommend Ben to anyone who needs results and to have someone on your side.

Attorney Readyoff represented us in a LL/tenant matter (as property owners) and we are confident his careful and measured approach was crucial in the matter being resolved quickly and without complication.
I was angry about the issue we brought to him, and without judgement of my emotions, he suggested a solution that initially seemed very procedural to me, but we fully committed to his recommendation.
Once he started the process, things changed drastically with the tenant. In ways, it appeared very little happened, but it made all the difference: we regained possession of the property. He never personally contacted the tenant and reminded us not to engage them.
Such matters are never comfortable, but Dan's professionalism and graciousness toward everyone made things manageable. I really respect the way he handled this matter, and I appreciate the outcome.
We are grateful for Attorney Readyoff's help.

I am lucky to have Kristen working on my behalf with a worker's compensation case. She knows the "in's and out's" of the byzantine BWC laws, is great at communicating, and has made a complicated, difficult time easier. I strongly believe Kristen has my best interests at heart and I highly recommend her!

Kristen was referred to me by many to be "the lawyer of choice". The tenacity displayed throughout my case (by Kristen) was awesome and at times unbelievable. As I will quote a good friend of mine (also in the legal profession) "If your want a dollar Kristen will get you two". "Thanks Kristen, for the win!"

My son contacted Kristen after my accident. She was referred to us from another attorney's office. Kristen consulted with us, and even came to my home for the consultation as my injuries did not allow me to go out. Consequently I hired Kristen. She is extremely accommodating, knowledgeable, efficient, and effective. Throughout the entire process, a year and a half, she kept me informed, all the while relieving my concerns and taking care of everything. I was very pleased with the outcome, and would highly recommend Kristen to represent you.

I would recommend Adam to anyone who needs a lawyer. He was very helpful with my automobile accident case. Adam is very professional yet very personable which I thought was great. I had talked to other lawyers in Pikeville and Adam was the only one who seemed to actually care about helping me rather than just profiting from my case. Adam was able to help me get reimbursement for my car which was totalled, all my medical expenses paid, and a compensation for my pain and suffering. We had to deal with an insurance company who didn't want to take responsibilty for their client (imagine that). If you want a lawyer who gets results and is easy to deal with and helpful in every way then I suggest you contact Adam Hall.
