I'm happy living in my little fish bowl life , back and forth to work, after a careless driver injured me I needed a accident attorney, after a evening stay at a local hospital,, they were unable to mend my shoulder, I then had to wait a week for a more capable surgeon, I knew the bills would start to pile up, and the sharks would start to circle,, I didn't realize my own health care provider would also start to circle,, Frank Nunes is like Quint from Jaws,, ready to take on the great white, over the next few months of letters and calls from the money hungry Heath care providers I was starting to have worries,, a call to Frank and staff would always put my mind at ease, they have the experience and expertise to deal with my journey through the dark Waters of an accident and injury, Thank you so much for helping me get back to my daily routine.

Nunes Law, from beginning to end made me feel comfortable and supported throughout the whole process of my lawsuit. It was an extremely stressful time before hiring Frank to take on my case and after he took over I felt relieved that everything would be taken care of. Nunes Law was professional and sympathetic at every turn. Frank told me he would do everything he could to ensure I would receive what I deserved and I can honestly say I am beyond pleased with the final outcome. I would highly recommend Frank Nunes and his team. It is my hope that I do not need legal intervention in the future, but if I do, Nunes Law will be my first call.

After my accident I was such a nervous wreck trying to figure out how I would manage everything involved. Fowler, Helsel, and Vogt alongside Veronica and Yuliana Santillan helped me through the entire process from the minute I contacted them. There was never a time I was worried something wouldn’t be taken care of. They completely handled all matters in my case and were an absolute pleasure to work with the entire time. They were communicative about all processes and were always reachable whenever I had a question. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone.

If you are in need a top notch, ethically driven accident attorney stop no further than Fowler / Helsel/ Vogt. Their entire team demonstrated nothing but professionalism, education, and efficiency getting the job done. At the end of the day, we walked away with the settlement that was hoped for.
Be sure to ask for Adrian Reyes if you want a true professional working on your behalf. The communication was awesome, and I never felt I couldn’t ask a question for clarification. I am one very satisfied client, and it was a pleasure to have Adrian, Mr. Helsel and the entire team working on my behalf.
I highly recommend them!

I can score Kevin Kalajian top score in every phase of him helping me with injury accident in Fresno in my RV when I was traveling Solo Fulltime cross country.
He answers the phone. returns calls promptly. replies to emails promptly. experienced with the other insurance company. experienced and knew his way around my med insurance provider and medicare.. He completed all the paperwork that I couldn't have done.
He kept me updated of status and explained everything in Laymans terms . was not condescending. He facilitated a satisfactory settlement while avoiding a trial. I tried 3 other law offices and never got past the call screeners. Kevin listen to the whole problem of 3 month trip interruption in a hotel in triple digit temps in fresno not knowing anyone. all this was smoothly accomplished remotely as i was still traveling 2 months before the 2 yr statute of limitations was up. I called him April 3 2023. He was my last attempt to try another referral.. and he was a blessing. He worked hard for me but made it look easy. My settlement will help if I ever need further PT or cover diminished value if needed when sell my RV. Plus pain and suffering. He dispersed my settlement to me promptly after he received the funds.
Also. He seems very ethical. he did not send me around to doctors trying to beef up my injury claim. I Can't say enough good things about this smooth settlement experience with Kevin Kalajian.

My family had problems with two estates. The trustees hadn't had very much experience and were failing to account, in addition to holding up money without disbursing when needed. I hired Mr. Murillo for his expertise with probate, which is very difficult in Fresno. Thank you for your hard work.

I can’t recommend Lyndsie Russel & the whole Miles, Sears & Eanni firm enough. They worked on my case for 3 years, through the pandemic & all the push back with civil cases. Lyndsie was still extremely responsive & so helpful when I needed any type of reassurance. I trusted Lynsdie throughout the whole process & knew she & the firm had my best interest at heart. I’m so thankful Lynsdie took my case because after 3 long years, we won.

Mi estrella lo dice todo
Si buscan un abogado confiable, honesto creo que este buffet no es el correcto.
Mienten y …
A mis audiencias no se presentaron y tampoco apelaban asta que los agarre en la movida porque me presenté por video llamada a una de las últimas audiencias y no se presentó Dennis y supe que así fue durante todos los años de mis audiencias estando con ellos.
Mi caso fue un desastre y se perdió mucho😡😞
Me arrepiento mucho de no haber cambiado de abogado cuando pude.
Dejan que la defensa contraria tome el control.
No los recomiendo

We hired Ben 4 years ago after my husband was seriously hurt . He seemed like he cared at the time. However, as time went on it became apparent that all he cared about was himself. He did not fight for our case. Instead he used all the information and documents we gave him ..... and used it AGAINST US. Now 4 years later my husband is still in pain everyday. EVERY SINGLE DAY. I don't feel he tried very hard at all to win our case. My husband is injured for life. He will never have use of his arm again. Ben DID NOT do what he promised us... He said he was a fighting lawyer and that our case was clearly something he was able defend and win. It took a long time to be able to write this review, 4 years, because of all the heartache we still face , day after day. He did not consult with us on the last day in court.
He just never called again.

Slip and fall cases are very difficult. Nevertheless Ben and his team of professionals accepted my case against a very large retailer. It was settled pre-trial for a fair amount. I was treated truthfully and with respect. If you have an honest case, Ben and his team will have your back. I pray I’m not found in this type of situation again, but if I am, Tryk Law will be who I call. Thank you Ben, John, and Nichole ❤️

Our family law experience resulted in interactions with multiple attorneys. Leslie exhibited a level of professionalism far above most of the attorneys we observed and a level of competence that those who need an attorney can only dream of. If it were possible for me to give a more favorable rating than 5 stars, I would.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You
A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.
If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.
When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?
Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:
- Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
- Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
- Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
- Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
- Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
- Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.
What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?
A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:
- Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
- Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
- Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
- Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
- Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
- Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
- Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.
How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?
Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
- Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.
Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a car accident lawyer is generally based on the contingency fee arrangement. General estimates include:
- Contingency fee percentage: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. For example, if you receive a $100,000 settlement and the lawyer's fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000, and you'd keep the remaining $67,000.
- Case expenses: Additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness costs, and administrative fees can range from $1,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.
Ensure you get a clear explanation of fees and expenses during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Car Accident Lawyer
Before hiring a car accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with car accident cases?
Confirm the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, especially involving serious injuries or complex liability issues. -
How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
What kind of compensation can I expect?
Ask about the types of damages you may be entitled to, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
How to Check the Credibility of a Car Accident Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in personal injury and car accident cases.
- Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
- Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
- Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Police report: A copy of the accident report filed by the police.
- Medical records: Documentation of your injuries, treatments, and medical expenses.
- Photos and videos: Any visual evidence from the accident scene and of your injuries.
- Insurance information: Copies of your insurance policy and any correspondence with insurance companies.
- Witness information: Contact details and statements from any witnesses.
- List of questions: Prepared questions about your case and the legal process.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
