After a several month delay in getting my car repaired after I was rear-ended, I hired this legal firm to help me. What was taking me months to get accomplished on my own, they got the job done and saw that every detail was taken care of. This was the property damage which they don’t receive compensation and they did as a courtesy. I am very impressed with their follow-up and the friendly voices on the phone. I don’t normally use the legal system , but I’m glad to know that this firm is available should I need them again in the future.

Shane was referred to me after a car accident that happened my senior year of high school. Right after the accident Shane took the time to explain how the procedure worked and to not stress about our medical expenses and to focus on getting better. Following the accident I attended physical therapy for three months and saw four total physicians. Shane took detailed account of all of the expenses and physicians. Although the process took some time Shane was very detailed. Any time I had questions or needed to reach out he was there to follow up with me. I was very happy with how smooth this case was and I’m very happy with the results he got me from my case. I’d recommend his services to anyone that needs help after an accident. Due to him I was able to recover from my accident, have proper care, and make a little bit of money to pay off my new car and still have left over. Even if results take time he will make sure he gives you the best care starting out and all the way to the end of our case

Mr. Warner was recommended to me after I was involved in an auto accident where the other driver turned into me and totaled my car. From the very beginning Shane’s personal concern was evident when he made sure that my medical needs were taken care of. The case proved quite challenging, but Shane persisted in a knowledgeable and professional manner. Thanks to his perseverance the settlement was significantly more than I had anticipated. I would highly recommend Shane Warner for legal representation.

I was the victim of a car accident where the driver blew through a red light and hit me on the passenger side, in which at the time I was 28 weeks pregnant. Shane was very professional and knowledgeable regarding auto accident injury claims and how to navigate the claim to get the best possible results. He made sure I was taken care of medically by referring me to physicians and a physical therapy practice. He did not back down and was very thorough when pursuing a settlement on my behalf. He was able to get the maximum amount for me due to his negotiating skills and expertise. Thanks again Shane for your dedicated work.

I was involved in a life changing motor vehicle accident and retained Shapiro Law firm to assist my family in holding the defendant and insurance company accountable for the life impacting physical and monetary damages sustained. They were successful in recovering a comprehensive financial settlement for my family’s future and to help bring me whole again. I would absolutely recommend David Shapiro Law team to help you achieve satisfactory results in your lawsuit and to better your situation.

David Shapiro was not our first call to an attorney but definitely our last. He took excellent care of us in choosing great physicians in many different specialties because of our injuries. He was always there to answer our many, many, MANY questions. He is kind, knowledgeable and fantastic on follow through. His staff is excellent as well. He is just the angel we needed. He even got us policy limits without going to court. God bless you David and many thanks again.

Guided us through the unknowns when in our (not our fault) rollover accident. Took away our stress and anxiety so we could deal with medical and replacing our vehicle. They negotiated a good settlement. We would have been lost without the Shapiro Law Team.

We can't say enough good things about Knapp and Roberts. Craig represented my brothers and me against a big insurance company and negotiated a very favorable settlement. The insurance company lawyer was really tough, but Craig was able to keep the discussions on the most relevant considerations in spite of all the opposition's maneuvering.
Part of the case included making a winning and precedent-setting argument before the AZ Supreme Court!
He was also very pleasant to work with, and very ably explained the topics that we needed to focus on.

aising a child with special needs is a journey. Never in a million years did I expect myself to be in need of an attorney to walk along side of me for another leg of the journey after a horrific incident. I thank God that Knapp & Roberts was the firm we chose to help us navigate an extremely difficulty time in our lives. The dynamic duo of Craig Knapp and David Friedman was a force to be reckon with. Ways I describe Craig: a fearless ethical leader, compassionate, brilliant, trusts his instincts, personally responds to correspondences and provides emotional support every step of the way. David is passionate, assertive, extremely knowledgeable, articulate, detail oriented and caring. Craig and David were so diligent over 4 years that it took to get our case settled. It took going to a jury trial that they handled in a professional manner. They found ethical experts to testify, kept us informed, helped us cope with the emotionally draining days in court and worked tirelessly. We felt genuinely taken care of like family and they had our best interest at heart the entire time. I am so glad we trusted them with our case and would absolutely recommend Knapp & Roberts.

Craig was one of many lawyers I interviewed for the wrongful death lawsuit of a family member at an Assisted Living Facility. From the first time we spoke, he was compassionate, kind and up front about the type of settlement he thought we could receive. He gave me his cell phone number and he was always quick to respond to calls, texts and emails. He was professional as well as empathetic to my loss. In the end he got us a much larger settlement than we expected. I would highly recommend Craig, and Knapp and Roberts, to anyone dealing with a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit.

Needing help with fighting an OOP, Colby was referred to me and I now know why. Not only was his office kind and professional, Colby was amazing. He made time to meet with me to prep before the hearings. He answered all of my questions and made me feel comfortable going into the hearing. Colby knows his stuff! We ended in my favor and I would recommend him over and over. If ever needing help again, I’ll be calling Colby.

I retained Stone Rose Law to represent me for a personal injury matter. I'm also an injury adjuster and after dealing with a certain commercial carrier who low balled me I retained Colby and his team and he was clear, kind, and committed to pursue this claim for the justice and compensation I deserved.
I strongly recommend this firm if you have a legit injury and need actually legitimate counsel that's ethical and fair.
His team also helped a bunch and were all really friendly and responsive.
I hope not to be injured again but if I am, I know who I have set in Stone to retain as my attorneys!

You couldn’t ask for better representation than AJ Mitchell. He and his team not only work for you but also with you. He is kind, competent, knowledgeable but also aggressive in making sure you receive absolute restitution/compensation. They genuinely care about you and your circumstance and work tirelessly on your behalf. I am very grateful and am more than happy to give his practice the praise and referrals they truly deserve!

My partner and I were involved in a cycling accident (hit by a car) and suffered serious injuries. We were new to the area and trying to figure out which was the best lawyer seemed such a task while in recovery. A few lawyers were recommended to us, one of which was A.J.Mitchell. After speaking with him on the phone and then meeting him in person we were positive that he was the one to choose. He was caring, compassionate, personable and genuine and took ample time to make sure all of our questions were answered and all information was gathered. Throughout the whole process, he has remained as such! His expertise is unlimited and he has searched every avenue for us to make sure all grounds were covered. He has been extremely diligent and it shows that he takes great pride in both his work and his clients. I could not be more thankful that we choose A.J. to represent our case and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Ariel is very knowledgeable. Unlike other attorneys that try to do it all, he specifies what his areas of strength are, and follows through for quick results in those areas!

Mr. Page helped me to settle my car accident claim against two very difficult insurance companies. It was a long process due to its complication, but Mr. Page walked me through the whole process. At one point, he told me if this were going to the court, he would still stick to our original engagement letter (you know most attorneys charge differently for the trial) just because he could not stand what the insurance company was trying to do on my claim. Fortunately, my case got satisfactorily settled without going to the court. I think he probably should have retired by now, but I would highly recommend him because he knows what he does and more importantly, he has the ethics that are the key to everything. Thank you so much Mr. Page.

Hi, I am a client of Ms. Pelletier. Back in August 2014 my boyfriend and I encountered a problem with our landlord leading into a case to the court. We went to do our response, and from there I didn't know how to proceed on the case. I had used the internet to find a lawyer to see what we could do, but had no luck. Then I remembered that there was an office downtown Phoenix, near the courts called Legal Community Services. I filled out an application to see if I qualified to have a lawyer to look at my case. About a week or 2 went by, when I received a phone call from the secretary for Ms. Janis Pelletier. She called me, met with me in person. We spoke about my case, about what we could do and what was the next step. As a result, the landlord we had took us to court for nonpayment for rent, electricity and accusing us of tampering with an APS electric meter. Our lawyer, Ms. Pelletier, helped us by filing a motion to dismiss. The case was dismissed, and then the landlord refiled against us in a total of 3 times. By, the second time the landlord refiled against us, the case was transferred to an arbitrator. From there, I contacted our lawyer, and she filed for another motion to dismiss. once again, the case was dismissed. On January 6th, the landlord refiled against us once more. I communicated with Ms. Pelletier, and she was kind to file another motion to dismiss. Finally, our case is dismissed and closed. Ms. Pelletier is a great, kind, communicative, and caring person. I highly recommend her. Thank you!!

I had been involved in a car accident where the other driver was cited (at fault) causing significant personal injuries and totaling my car. Settlement was quick regarding the car, however, a less than adequate dollar amount was offered for myself. I knew I now needed legal counsel. I was repelled by the bombardment of legal TV ads. I did lengthy research and opted for Paul. My expectations were exceeded. Without fail - both Paul and/or Marcella were quick to respond to all questions and boosted confidence in my choice with this firm. RESULT- Five times the original dollar amount offered was awarded. I can’t emphasize enough my appreciation for Paul Englander

Outstanding Representation by Paul Englander!
After my serious auto accident left me feeling lost and uncertain, I was incredibly fortunate to have Paul Englander by my side. From the very first consultation, his attentiveness, expertise, and genuine care put me at ease.
Throughout the entire process, Paul's meticulous attention to detail was truly impressive. He meticulously gathered evidence, investigated every avenue, and kept me informed every step of the way. His clear communication and willingness to answer all my questions, no matter how small, gave me immense peace of mind during a very stressful time.
What truly sets Paul apart, however, is his unwavering dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for his clients. His strategic approach and skillful negotiation resulted in a settlement that far exceeded my expectations. His commitment to justice and my well-being was evident in every interaction.
Without a doubt, Paul is an exceptional attorney. He possesses a rare blend of legal expertise, compassion, and dedication that makes him a true advocate for his clients. I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone seeking legal representation.

I was in a bad car accident and was referred to Claudia for guidance on how to handle the situation. I was so overwhelmed and Claudia was there for me for the entire process. She handled everything and kept me informed while also helping me get the best treatment for my injuries. I was able to focus on my health and get better and it was so nice to know I had someone looking out for me. I can’t thank Claudia and her team at Reeves Law for all their efforts and guidance through an overwhelming time. Id recommend Reeves’s Law to anyone that needs any legal help! I am so thankful for everything they did for me.

The unthinkable struck my family, and my husband and I were in need of serious legal advice, and more importantly, answers. We are forever grateful for the referral we received for DeFusco Law. When so many others would not listen, Andy was the only attorney who did. We were deeply grieving the death of our oldest son, and our situation required both a criminal and civil case. Andy, Bryn, and Rachael were compassionate, knowledgeable, and thoroughly answered all of our questions for both cases. They worked diligently to resolve our civil case, and we were absolutely surprised and grateful that Andy and Bryn wanted to guide us through the criminal process as well! Although it took far longer than we all anticipated (4 1/2 years), they remained fully dedicated and stuck by our side every step of the way. Hearing after hearing, Bryn and/or Andy always showed up! It was a blessing to have them represent and support us through these difficult times. We highly recommend DeFusco Law!

Karl represented my husband in a very complex slip and fall case. The settlement we got was far beyond what we had hoped for! I honestly believe that if not for Karl's tenacity, professionalism and impressive legal mind, we would have wound up with nothing.
Over the many years since then, Karl has successfully handled several other legal matters for us. We have always been able to TRUST him to give us sound legal advice, keep us informed and treat us with kindness and respect.

Before meeting Karl, I reached out to numerous lawyers to help me fairly deal with the damage caused after my motor vehicle accident. These lawyers refused to listen to my side of the story and were unable to foresee the situation like Karl did. Karl heard my side of the story, and immediately explained my options and the probable outcome of my case. He was very professional, reliable and most importantly, won my case in a short amount of time! He dissected every detail of my car accident and educated me on the missing pieces that kept me awake at night. I believe my case was dealt fairly and thanks to Karl, justice was served!

I met Karl through my employee assistance program and after one meeting I hired him. Prior to hiring Karl I had lost my 3 year old case with my HOA who had a civil judgment of over $12,000.00 against me, and a lien against my property. The HOA was also seeking garnishment of my earnings. Several other law firms who reviewed the case recommended that I pay the judgment, or file bankruptcy. When Karl was done with the HOA, the garnishment was stopped, the lien lifted, and quite unbelievably Karl negotiated with the HOA who paid me $5,000.00! And yes, the judgment was no longer something I had to pay! Karl was honest with me, and his fees were very reasonable. Karl saved me, and my house, but more importantly he gave me peace of mind and restored my faith in the Judicial System. THANK YOU KARL!

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.

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.
