I had the pleasure of working with Mr Sasan Okhovat and his team for my recent accident case, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. From our first meeting, they were incredibly professional and compassionate, making me feel at ease during a very stressful time.
Mr. Sasan communicated clearly throughout the entire process, explaining each step and ensuring I understood my options. He fought diligently on my behalf and was always available to answer any questions I had. I received the best settlement I could have hoped for. I highly recommend Priority Law Group specifically Mr Sasan to anyone in need of a reliable and effective accident.

Henry has represented my special needs son for the past several years and has delivered exceptional results for us every single time. We could not be happier with him - he is very kind, patient and knowledgable, and has never failed to help us get reimbursed for our out of pocket costs. We cannot recommend Henry enough!

Jodi Bynder is the most incredible attorney and will be the best advocate for your family. We are beyond impressed with her expertise in navigating this very challenging process.

She really has the expertise and knowledge of the educational system and was amazing with negotiating! We appreciate her guiding us through the process and for giving our son a chance to be successful at school. We are very happy with the outcome and we highly recommend Jodi Bynder to anyone!

Mr. Menyuk was a HUGE help in getting my dyslexic son the educational help required for him to succeed, not only in school, but in life. Our district failed to give my son the appropriate help and refused my personal requests for help as well. Mr. Menyuk assisted us by working with the district, which resulted in getting my son the help he so desperately needed. From initial consultation, to settlement, Mr. Menyuk was very professional in helping us navigate and understanding the roadblocks when dealing with our school district. My son is in a much better place now because of his efforts. I highly recommend his services for anyone in a similar situation who needs help.

I consulted with Mr. Yassini regarding two accidents that I had been involved in where the other party was guilty but was refusing compensate me for losses. He gave me thorough directions on how I could help myself and with his guidance I was able to win both cases. This showed me that he's in this business to help others and cares about his clients. Should I ever need a personal injury attorney again he will be the first person I will call.

I have consulted with Farzad Yassini twice. Both times he was able to put my concerns at ease and talk me off the ledge of a lawsuit while the other lawyers I was consulting with were trying to talk me into it! Farzad is extremely patient, respectful, down to earth, empathetic and awesome. He was open, honest, realistic and knowledgeable about the steps and process that would be involved in a lawsuit, which I hadn't heard in detail elsewhere. Others downplayed the level of effort and the potential negative repercussions. Farzad also gave me scenarios that if true would warrant taking action. Everything he said made sense without making me incensed. He didn't take advantage of or rouse my emotions. If you want an honest assessment go to this law office. You will not be disappointed. I truly can't thank him or appreciate him enough. He also gave me advice that saved me money on my auto insurance (I know random; just a testament to how warm and conversational he is and his commitment to helping people). The best.

I used the believe that retaining a reputable, experienced, knowledgeable, and highly competent attorney would come at the expense of receiving that one on one personal attention one would ideally expect when involved in a personal injury case. But, Farzad Yassini proved me wrong. Aside from his hard work, know-how, and extensive legal knowledge, he extremely caring, ethical, patient, and wonderful at making you feel like you are his one and only priority even though his phone is ringing off the hook. He always made himself available to us day and night and made us feel extremely comfortable that our case was in good hands.

OMG! Working with Natela Shenon (Grant-Shenon) was amazing! She and her team were so responsive, got the core of the issue so quickly, and then acted expertly/brilliantly to resolve it. Natela is not only a great attorney, but she is also a visionary and an outstanding person! I can't recommend Natela and her firm enough!

I made an appointment to have a consultation with David Almanez the eviction attorney. I waited for 45 minutes for the intake guy, Tyler to check his schedule. We agreed on a time and date, only for him to call me the next day to cancel and try to reschedule a week later. If this is how they treat a prospective client. No Thank you! I wonder if it’s because I live out of state, and the property is located in Los Angeles, and not in Sherman Oaks. Either way it’s obvious he didn’t want my business! It’s a blessing to know this before I gave them my retainer!

Renee has great customer service all around, very prompt and helpful while in the office but also very attentive and easy to communicate outside of the office via email and phone.

I was referred to Michael by a family friend to assist with a sticky business contract negotiation, and I could not have asked for a better attorney for the job. His attention to detail, thoroughness, and focus in dealing with communications, contracts, and investigation of any and all related legislation / legal precedents is incredible. Beyond legal knowledge and experience, he is exactly the sort of person you want to help navigate legal procedures. Michael is professional, direct, and verbose. He is honest, straightforward, and does an excellent job of cutting through excess legal-ese to reach the crucial points. Finally, he knows when to inject a dose of humor and levity -- which can make all the difference when you're slogging through an arduous situation. I will not hesitate to call on Michael the next time I need support, and will recommend him to anyone I can!

We were referred to Michael through a friend who had worked with him on real estate matters. We are a startup and needed help with trademarking our name and logo. Michael was incredibly kind and walked us through the process and got us thinking about where we want to see our company down the line to be able to properly trademark our mark from the start. He made it a joy rather than a chore and we are so grateful. We have our trademark in hand and could not be happier! I have referred Michael to family and friends and they have all shared a very similar experience. He's so sharp, he's efficient and the most honest attorney you will ever meet.

I needed a contract written up for a business transaction, which Anthony drafted for me. He negotiated with the other side and within a week, the contract was ready and signed. It was an emergency situation and he worked on it day and night so that it could be done by my deadline.
He was fair, honest, and knowledgeable in what we discussed in making sure that I am protected from future issues that may arise. I am really glad that I met Anthony and will definitely be using his services in the future; hopefully I won't need it too soon, but I know where to go if I do.

Mr. Hamassian was very knowledgeable and honest with the work that he did for me. I had an issue with a tenant of mine because my lease was poorly written from before. Mr. Hamassian helped me resolve the problem with the tenant and even drafted a new lease for the new tenant.
He also does wills and trusts, which I just happened to mention to him. He is currently working on that for me as well. From my experience so far, he is an honest and fair attorney. He knows what is right for his client and doesn't seem like he would force you into something that does not make sense. Thank you!

In the five short weeks that passed between initiation and resolution of my matter, Steve proved to be a most competent and aggressive attorney. He formally responded to the threatening demands aimed at me by authoring a brilliant, well-structured and strategic letter, fiercely confronting each demand. Further, he articulated numerous and significant counter claims against the opposing party with strength and confidence, referencing an overwhelming amount of case precedence and legal context to support each response or claim. Steve's letter was bold, unrelenting and ultimately, convincing. A settlement agreement was immediately requested. Again, Steve authored an agreement so thorough and finalizing, it read like a kind of ultimate wish-list, best-case scenario and answer to my prayers, all rolled into one awesome document. In less than two weeks of negotiating, Steve was able to deliver the agreement signed, notarized, and confirmed by the opoposing party to be in full effect. Unbelievable!

Ellery and his team at Impact Attorneys are hands down the best personal injury attorneys in Los Angeles. What surprised me the most when he reviewed my case was his attention to detail, and his ability to want to go the extra mile to make sure I got the highest settlement regardless of how tedious the process was. Simply put, Ellery is absolutely relentless against opposing counsel and is someone the insurance companies actually fear going up against due to his tireless work ethic and knowledge of law. On top of this, he constantly checks in with you throughout the process and makes you feel like family instead of a number. If you ever need to retain a personal injury attorney look no further Ellery and his team at impact attorneys are it, I trust them with my life.

Got crashed into by some scam artists. Ellery Gordon wasn't just a lawyer, he was an advocate and a friend. He really made sure I was OK and sent me to the best (non-scam) doc. Just an amazing and smooth experience. Communication was amazing.
I'm referring everyone I know that might need his representation. No dishonesty , never once felt like he cared more about making money than he did my well- being.
Thanks so much, Ellory.

Where do I even begin! From the very first phone call/interaction I had with California Lemon Lawyers (who came HIGHLY recommended) I knew I was in the best hands. The care and efficiency I received is unmatched, to the point where whatever the end result was (which was GREAT!) I felt very at peace and confident because Nick took the time to educate me with so much and gave me the best reassurance and worked around the clock even if it was to let me vent out my frustration. They were all so very respectful and supportive and truly some of the hardest working and honest people I know. They truly care about your individual case and not look at you as just a dollar sign or way to take advantage of you. They take the time to work on your case as it was for their very own family member!
This entire experience with them will stay with me forever!
Can’t thank them all enough!! Very grateful 🙏 THANK YOU!

"My divorce was one of the worst periods of my life, and I did not have an easy case. To have an attorney in whom I could place my unqualified trust was essential to me. Wendi came through in every area. She achieved a settlement that my previous attorney had told me was not possible. She listened to my concerns and goals, and then drafted an overall strategy that got results. - And she did it quickly, keeping my costs down! I finally felt like someone understood my situation and knew exactly what to do about it. I give major credit to Wendi for the positive outcome, as well as for treating me as a respected partner during the process. It's nice to have your calls and emails returned so quickly! I would unhesitatingly recommend Wendi's services."

I came to Ms. Wagner after my (now) ex-husband served me with divorce papers, as an overwhelmed and frightened woman. I had never used a lawyer before and I had no idea what to expect from a lawyer, much less the process of a complicated divorce after an 18 year marriage. Over the duration of my divorce proceedings, Ms. Wagner proved herself to be not only a highly professional and incredibly knowledgeable lawyer, but an amazingly compassionate person as well. From the very beginning, she helped me go from frightened woman to a confident and empowered individual with the strength to get through my situation. She kept me informed of every new development, every step I needed to take, and helped me understand the process in a way I never thought I would. I truly felt Ms. Wagner cared more about me and my situation, than in just "getting my business". Ms. Wagner is a kind person and a competent lawyer, and I am very happy to have had her on MY side!

Shawn K. Elliott is the greatest lawyer I have ever worked with. A suit was brought against me with regard to an auto accident that took place in 2009. My belief was the other driver was at fault and the insurance will handle it. My daughter and I were able to walk away from the car accident without any bodily injury - thank goodness. My car was totaled. I truly felt it was the other drivers fault but little did I know the driver of the other vehicle would start a 2 1/2 year battle in which he wanted to sue me for millions. I was baffled. I was introduced to Shawn and the journey began. The case was not a simple one by any stretch of the means. I was making the LEFT HAND turn and was struck. I had no idea that left hand turn drivers usually get full if not most of the blame placed upon them. I felt strongly I was not at fault and the other driver was speeding which was the cause of the accident. It sounded easy for me to say but in the court of law this is not an easy case to prove innocence. The trial lasted two weeks and the end result was a slam dunk 12-0 win for DEFENDANT - ME. Shawn is an absolutely brilliant lawyer! Apart from his brilliance, he is a man of integrity, tenacity, perseverance and he is unbelievably kind. In fact, his nickname is ROCKSTAR. Shawn stayed in close contact with me and immediately updated me when necessary. He treated me like I was his only client - I felt like family. That takes sincerity and class because I know he is an extremely busy lawyer. He always had the right words to say to comfort me when I was concerned. He was always upfront and honest and never had me wondering. The absolute greatest experience I have ever had with a lawyer. His staff is top-notch. He is great to see in action in the courtroom. Shawn Elliott is a shear genius!!

What a Litigation Lawyer Can Do for You
A litigation lawyer specializes in representing individuals, businesses, or organizations involved in legal disputes. Whether you're the one filing a lawsuit or you're being sued, a litigation attorney will advocate on your behalf throughout the entire legal process. Their goal is to resolve disputes, either through negotiation, settlement, or trial. Litigation lawyers can help with a wide range of disputes, including contract disagreements, real estate issues, employment disputes, personal injury claims, and more.
Litigation lawyers provide strategic legal advice and manage all aspects of your case, from filing motions to representing you in court, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you have the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome.
When Should I Hire a Litigation Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a litigation lawyer if you're involved in a legal dispute that you cannot resolve on your own. Common situations include:
- Breach of contract disputes: If a party to a contract fails to fulfill their obligations, a litigation lawyer can help you seek damages or enforce the agreement.
- Business disputes: Litigation lawyers can represent you in cases of partnership disagreements, intellectual property disputes, or business fraud.
- Employment disputes: If you're facing issues like wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, or wage disputes, a litigation lawyer can help resolve these matters through negotiation or court action.
- Personal injury claims: If you've been injured due to someone else's negligence and are seeking compensation, a litigation attorney can help you pursue your case.
- Real estate or property disputes: When there are conflicts over property ownership, boundary issues, or lease agreements, a litigation lawyer can assist in resolving the dispute.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is beneficial, especially if a lawsuit seems imminent or you have already been served with legal documents.
What Does a Litigation Lawyer Do?
A litigation lawyer handles all aspects of your case, from the initial investigation to the trial and even the appeals process, if necessary. Their role includes:
- Case assessment and investigation: Analyzing the facts of your case and advising whether it’s worth pursuing or defending.
- Pleadings and motions: Drafting and filing documents to initiate or respond to a lawsuit, including complaints, motions to dismiss, and answers.
- Discovery: Gathering evidence, including depositions, interrogatories, and document requests, to build your case.
- Negotiations and settlement discussions: Attempting to resolve disputes through mediation, arbitration, or settlement talks before going to trial.
- Trial representation: Presenting your case in court, examining witnesses, introducing evidence, and making legal arguments before a judge or jury.
- Appeals: If necessary, filing appeals to challenge or defend the outcome of the trial.
Litigation lawyers are also skilled negotiators and often work to resolve disputes outside of court to save time, money, and stress for their clients.
How Are Litigation Lawyers Paid?
Litigation lawyers typically use a variety of fee structures depending on the type of case, the complexity of the legal matter, and the financial circumstances of the client. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Many litigation attorneys charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and geographic location.
- Flat fees: For specific, predictable legal tasks (such as filing a motion), lawyers may offer a flat fee.
- Contingency fees: In personal injury or other cases where you seek damages, a lawyer may work on a contingency basis, taking a percentage of the settlement or award if you win.
- Retainer: Some clients pay a retainer fee upfront to secure ongoing legal services. The lawyer then bills against this retainer as work is done.
The exact structure should be discussed in the initial consultation to ensure you understand how and when you'll be charged.
How Much Does a Litigation Lawyer Cost?
The cost of a litigation lawyer varies significantly depending on the nature of the dispute and the lawyer’s experience. Factors affecting the cost include:
- The complexity of the case: More complex litigation involving extensive discovery, expert witnesses, or multi-party suits typically costs more.
- Time spent: Litigation cases can be time-consuming, especially if they go to trial. The longer the case, the higher the legal fees.
- Type of fee arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $200 to over $1,000 per hour, depending on the lawyer’s reputation and location. Contingency fees generally range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award.
- Stage of litigation: Cases that settle early in the process are often less expensive than those that proceed to trial or appeal.
It’s crucial to ask about cost estimates during your initial consultation to avoid surprises.
Top Questions to Ask a Litigation Lawyer
Before hiring a litigation lawyer, it's essential to ask key questions to ensure you're choosing the right representation:

How often do you settle cases versus going to trial?
Some lawyers are more inclined to settle, while others may be more experienced in the courtroom. It’s important to understand their strategy. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Some lawyers prefer aggressive litigation, while others focus on settlement or mediation. Choose one whose approach aligns with your goals.

To verify a litigation lawyer’s credibility, consider the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Ensure the lawyer is in good standing with the state bar and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online reviews can provide insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and track record.

- Request references: Ask the lawyer to provide references from past clients who can speak to their effectiveness and approach.
- Research their trial experience: If your case is likely to go to trial, ensure the lawyer has a history of courtroom success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make your first consultation with a litigation lawyer productive, you should prepare the following:
- A clear outline of the dispute: Provide a timeline and key details about the legal issue you're facing.
- Any relevant documents: Bring contracts, emails, letters, or any other documentation that pertains to the case.

- Questions about fees and the litigation process: Make sure you understand how the lawyer plans to approach your case and how you will be charged.

By coming prepared, you can ensure that your initial meeting with the lawyer is both efficient and insightful, giving you a better sense of how to proceed with your case.
