Kampf, Schiavone & Associates are the best attorneys ever! Although my cases were difficult & complicated with multiple work injuries, Schiavone, Kampf & Associates never gave up on my cases with both, Workmen’s Comp, and my Subsequent Injury Benefit Trust Fund case, also known as SIBTF. I started with Kampf, Schiavone, & Associates a few years back, & they were finally able to get the State Workmen’s Compensation Board & State (my employer) to come to a final agreement & we settled with a fairly good outcome for me, and I was very happy with that Permanent & Stationary settlement. It’s very difficult trying to settle any type of a case with the state of California, but my attorney’s at Kampf, Schiavone, & Associates did just that for me., and they did it extremely well. They also found me great doctors to provide the lifetime medical care I needed, and where I live, that’s not an easy thing to do. Immediately after my case was settled with Workmen’s Compensation, my attorneys advised me that I might qualify for the State SIBTF award. And my attorneys began the process of setting me up with the required various Medical evaluations, which didn’t take very long at all. I think the whole process of all the evaluation took about perhaps less than a year maybe, and then my attorneys set up with the State of CA SIBTF for SIBTF court hearings, which I did not have to go to at all. My attorney took care of everything For me. Bottom line, my attorneys won me 100% with approximately 7.5-8 years of backpay, Plus a substantial monthly amount of income for the remainder of my life-span. I am very thankful for everything Kampf, Schiavone, & Associates did for me. I don’t know what I would had done without them, & their help, but I do know this: Schiavone, Kampf, & Associates never gave up on me & my cases with them. They fought long & hard for me, and provided me with solid emotional support, when things felt too hard & overwhelming for me…they were always there for me. If not for Mr. Schiavone, the staff & my attorneys, Mark, Kathy, & Amy, Jessica, & litigation assistants, each & everyone of them, I would not be well off today, if not for these wonderful expert injury attorneys at Kampf, Schiavone & Associates. They are ALL the BEST!

I'm not here to rate the work of this buffet as defenders, but to say that they are very irresponsible people, anyone who is in the finance department, along with the supervisor. I have been waiting for a refund of $20,000, for more than 6 months... which was supposed to happen in 3-4 weeks. And every time I call, absolutely no one can help me, I have sent emails to support and there is no answer either, they tell me that on Monday, gosh, I'm calling on Monday. I think that if they are not responsible in one thing, they are not responsible in anything.

My oldest brother was involved in a fatal car accident. He died intestate, and as Administrator in probate for him, I chose to seek legal representation for his death in the car crash. Michael was engaged right from the start and kept our family aware of the progress as time went on. Once the police report was made available (it took 8 months), things moved along well to a settlement. His help was much appreciated!

I can't recommend this attorney enough! Unlike other firms that asked for 40% of my total settlement, he structured his fees based on my case's potential, only taking 45% of anything above a certain amount. Attorney Pingle is not greedy like other law firms, and he settled my case in just a months. He didn't over-complicate things or pressure me, just asked a few key questions and got right to work. So happy I found him during such a stressful time !!!

There was no problem reaching him at any time of the day. He was transparent since the day I met him and that’s an important factor when choosing the right attorney. He will make sure you have everything you need even before the judge will ask for it. He made me feel ready at every hearing. He has plenty of experience at what he does. He will fight for you every step of the way. I definitely recommend him! You will not regret it one bit. He deserves more than a 5 stars with the effort he has put into my case. Thank you for your time and service, Christian. It was a pleasure working with you.

Christian is the best fit for you if you are looking for a criminal defense attorney. The prosecutor bullied me 12!!! courts simply because I had a public defender. I was facing a lot of trouble, but an acquaintance recommended him. Christian's strategic recommendation turned the tide in my case. He studied the case and said that my case was 100% winnable. I trusted him, and this is the result. Today, I was cleared of all charges. Thank you so much, Christian. I will recommend you to anyone who is in trouble.

After loosing our 5 week old son, we knew something had gone wrong. When we reached out to David and his team, it was of great relief that someone understood my concerns as a mother as I felt heard! David really went out of his way to help us in one of our biggest grieving moments. The hospital we had went to not only failed our son, but everyone who was there to support us along the way. I can not be more thankful with all the quick responses, the detailed emails, the overall compassion I felt along the way.

California is a difficult state to be a medical malpractice plaintiff. You're going to need the best and in my opinion, you could do no better than David Smith. Ours was a complex case, one which other attorneys had rejected due to all the difficulties of prosecuting medical malpractice in California. Once Mr. Smith agreed to take our case, he was like a bulldog! We encountered some serious obstacles and were up against a heartless insurance company law firm that tried to play some ruthless games and (in my opinion) shady legal maneuvers. But Mr. Smith was ahead of them at every step, even as they seemed intent on taking the case to trial. Ultimately, they came to realize that we had a tenacious pro on our side, and they settled. What I can tell you is that I'm not a big fan of attorneys in general, but we really felt like we had a powerful and effective ally in Mr. Smith. It turns out he's a helluva nice guy too!

From beginning to end, Spencer kept me fully informed and made sure I was clear on every step. There was zero stress or confusion. He took care of everything, from court dates to all the paperwork, so I barely had to lift a finger. I’ve known Spencer for about 10 years, and he’s always been incredibly responsive and dependable. No matter how big or small the issue is, I trust him to handle it with ease. If you ever need legal help, Spencer is the person you want in your corner!

I worked w/ Dennis Stout as my attorney, though I met w/ Jim first, as his firm came recommended to me by another attorney as "the gold standard" for their services. I could not have been more pleased with the work they did for me, and the results. Dennis and his associates had to follow many paper trails and deal with J&J attorneys that made this particular case a miasma of processes to figure out. I am SO glad I did not make a "class action" choice. Dennis was quite accessible and the lengthy process was always fully explained. It took time but was ultimately worth it. I highly recommend the firm.

Dmitry ran the entire process well organized, keeping me up to date with scheduling and all legal proceedings/documents and not to mentioned he fought and delivered the most favorable outcome, I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend Dmitry, he was definitely the single changing factor in this situation, I can't thank him enough.

Choosing The Henderson Law Firm was the best decision my family and I ever made. Michael and all of the Henderson Law Firm staff were extremely helpful. They all truly cared about me, my family and how we were all suffering from my injuries I had received. They all fought hard for us. Decision making was easy for me because of how I was kept informed and given the proper information to make the right decisions. We eventually settled our case avoiding going to court. My family and I never imagined the outcome of the settlement being so successful and are so pleased. Thank you so much to Michael and all of the Henderson Law Staff. Jon and Julie

Being in a lawsuit is truly no fun, most aren't familiar with terms used, the process, and realistic expectations of results. Mr. Henderson, upon first meeting him was very thorough and set the expectations as to what would become of my actual result(s). He made sure to never over-promise and/or likewise under deliver. Although my case resulted in a favorable settlement for my case, I have no doubt this was more to do with whom I chose as my representation...Mr. Henderson. I would advise anyone looking for a candid, detail oriented, and trustworthy legal counsel; to look no further than Henderson Law.

Although our case did not squarely fit into Michael’s normal realm of personal injury, he welcomed us to his caseload and assisted us in finding what we felt was justice in a complicated case. When seeking an attorney of any kind, it is likely an emotionally charged and difficult time. Michael has a calming presence and straightforward approach. He was clear about expectations and process which was very helpful and appeased my anxiety. Michael and his staff were knowledgeable, thorough and most importantly- honest and responsive. I never had to wait to hear from him. He kept me apprised of status at all times. He was straightforward, diligent and steadfast in getting us a fair judgment. Adrienne was also extremely responsive and helpful and had the same thoughtful approach to communication. I am satisfied with the outcome of the case and would highly recommend Michael.

My daughter was a right-of-way pedestrian when she was struck by a left-turning vehicle at the intersection of Bush and Gough streets. While she did not sustain broken bones, she did hit her head on the pavement with intensity and recovered slowly over a two-year-plus period. I contacted Walkup Melodia during the COVID outbreak which contributed to the stress of our situation. Mike Kelly, a partner at Walkup, called me back after two hours and immediately understood the trauma that my daughter experienced. While I understand the need for law firms to conduct an intake, Mike skipped that process initially because he was immediate in answering what was important to us - the client - not the firm's needs given the unusual nature of events during the pandemic. He was sensitive, supportive and insightful with his acute understanding of the trajectory of my daughter's injuries and how our case would play out with the insurance company. In plain language, he explained what the projected range of compensation my daughter should expect. His representation was so valuable and his knowledge so deep in personal injury law in Northern California, we are so grateful to have received such amazing, thoughtful and immediate attention and representation from a high-level, gracious and profoundly knowledgeable attorney. If you have had a similar unfortunate circumstance, contact Mike at the Walkup firm to feel appropriately compensated for the trauma you have endured. There is no disappointment in dealing with this firm. For my daughter, Mike's representation was immensely gratifying for her both during the process, which was never wasteful, inefficient or antagonistic, and with the actual award in compensation for pain, suffering and medical reimbursement she received from the insurance company after negotiations.

I recently referred a personal injury case that involved serious injuries, liability issues, and defendants that were well funded (a municipality and a large construction firm) to Michael Kelly. Mike Kelly and his firm (Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Echevarria) not only met the challenge, "they blew the opposition away". Mike treated the client and his family with respect and compassion throughout the litigation process. Not intimidated by the opposition's constant "low ball" offers throughout the litigation process, Mike settled the case on the eve of trial for an astonishing settlement amount. The client was elated with the settlement amount, knowing that he would have financial security for the rest of his life. Mike kept me informed throughout the litigation process and was receptive to my suggestions and help. Furthermore, Mike was extremely generous with the referral fee.

Mike Kelly is amazing! I was a pedestrian hit by a car in the middle of a crosswalk. I was referred to Mike by a friend who highly recommended him. I was in extreme crisis when we contacted Mike. Since I was bedridden, he made a house visit on the weekend a couple of days after the accident. That alone shows what a caring, sensitive person he is. He sensed how distraught I was and made every effort to calm me. At that time, he took over the worries of getting financial justice and allowed me to focus on healing. That was major for me! Mike worked at making sure I was able to get the full amount of insurance from both the drivers insurance company and my insurance company. He was extremely empathetic throughout this whole matter and was always available. My words to describe Mike are kind, caring, trustworthy, confident, professional and just plain wonderful! I can't say enough about what a pleasure it was to work with Mike and his staff.

I wasn’t aware it would be possible for someone to die before they are born, but that’s what happened to me. My son was healthy and thriving inside my wife’s womb until they were brought to the delivery room. All seemed well until the OB started shouting, and I was hurriedly brought out of the delivery room. Two hours later, both my wife and my son were dead. The doctors weren’t clear with me what happened—they said it was a risky pregnancy and there was a complication. I started to hate the word “complication” because no one could explain what it means—just that something happened and my son and wife died. Dr. Bruce Fagel was the one who got to the bottom of things. I can’t believe that someone who helped us get pregnant and who was with us every step of the way would be the one to kill my family. They will never get away with this again.

We are very grateful to the law offices of Dr. Bruce G. Fagel and Associates. They are the ones who informed us that what was happened to our mom in her retirement home was not expected, and she was not given adequate nutrition, and medical care as was agreed. Our mom went into care as an independent 75-year-old who was having problems with her grip. Since we all lived far from her, she said it would be better to go into a retirement home so she would at least have “new friends.” Then the pandemic happened, and we weren’t allowed to visit her. Six months later, we got that she was in dire condition. Through Dr. Fagel, we found out that our mom was treated horribly. She had kidney failure and a host of other health problems that we didn’t understand where they came from—she was healthy and managing her meds well all on her own. Dr. Fagel helped us get justice. It won’t bring her back, but the people behind her abuse paid for their crimes.

Working with Markus and his paralegal was as stress free as a personal injury suit against the federal government could be.

I had a very, very tricky Personal Injury ("slip and fall") case that my own attorney eventually rejected. It's got a lot of risk, it involves attorney-expense, time, etc. It's against a Major Bank who vigorously defends such claims, etc. For so many reasons it's WRONG for the top attorneys in this field. Many or most who either hung-up on me or didn't call back, write back, acknowledge receipt of previous attorney's Demand Letter, etc. Even my own attorney was very lukewarm and unable to give this much time. I understood and understand it all. The fact that an attorney showed interest at all buoyed my surgery and necessary physical rehab, which took a good six months just to again walk. So either way I won, either way this turned out well because I'm walking again, in the gym, exercising, etc. Attorney Katz was just awesome in that he spent some time on the phone (despite being busy and involved in at LEAST one other trial). Returned all calls. If he said and says he'll call he does and did. I was just amazed at the Class-Level given the fact this Slip-and-Fall case is not an attractive proposition. I knew when my first attorney said he's bailing that it was a one-shot thing, a Demand Letter then everyone go home. People have to make a living, pay the rent, it has to make sense for these top guys. From what I understand, Attorney Katz is about as "Tops" as it gets. My first attorney was SURPRISED to hear Attorney Katz expressed ANY interest. (thought maybe I misunderstood or had wax in my ears). He said REALLY, Richard M. KATZ returned a call on this - wow - did Attorney Katz SEE the Demand Letter?! Which just shows how other attorneys in this field regard Attorney Katz - as the top of the top. I'm writing this because I just got off the phone with Attorney Katz. He AGAIN called back (each time I'm shocked), this is THIRD time even though he senses/knows there's nothing very strong - or unusual - or favorable about my position. Which is okay, as written I recovered, I'm well, I'm exercising again - as written the THOUGHT there might be compensation for a difficult year BUOYED my rehab, at least gave me some hope. So Attorney Katz, just wanted to come here, reflect on what a class guy you are - and how anyone needing a top Los Angeles-Pasadena-Glendale-based attorney should first consult you. I'm really in awe in light of the response from the others - and my respect for you knows no bounds. Thanks very much again for your time and attention: Joseph K

I was referred to Shin Law Group and Jonathan through a family member that was actually sued by his group due to a car accident (they got 25k for a SCRATCH against my family member) and boy am I happy to say, that things were as smooth as they come using their firm. From personal experience handling a car accident ESPECIALLY against a driver who has no insurance or minimum insurance, I can't recommend getting a lawyer enough. And what a team Shin Law Group has. From quick referrals to chiropractors and other forms of pain management, quick responses by phone and a clear explanation of how things go down after an accident with insurance, look no further than Shin Law Group.

What a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Do for You

A medical malpractice lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence or misconduct of healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, or hospitals. These lawyers assist in cases where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury or death. Medical malpractice cases can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.

If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to improper medical treatment, a medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand your legal options, file a lawsuit, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.

When Should I Hire a Medical Malpractice Lawyer?

Hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is essential if you’ve been seriously injured due to the negligence of a healthcare provider or institution. Situations where you should seek legal representation include:

  • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: If a doctor fails to diagnose or delays diagnosing a medical condition, leading to harm or progression of the illness.
  • Surgical errors: Harm resulting from surgical mistakes such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments inside the body, or performing unnecessary procedures.
  • Medication errors: Injuries caused by prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, or mistakes made by pharmacists in dispensing drugs.
  • Birth injuries: Injuries to a newborn due to medical negligence during labor and delivery, such as failing to perform a timely C-section or improper use of delivery instruments.
  • Anesthesia errors: Complications arising from improperly administered anesthesia, which can lead to serious injury or death.
  • Inadequate follow-up or aftercare: Suffering due to lack of proper monitoring or care after a medical procedure, leading to complications.
  • Hospital or nursing home negligence: Harm caused by the negligence of hospital staff, nurses, or administrators who failed to provide adequate care.

Medical malpractice cases are complex, and hiring a lawyer early can help ensure your rights are protected and your case is handled effectively.

What Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Do?

A medical malpractice lawyer provides various legal services to help injured patients hold negligent healthcare providers accountable. Their responsibilities include:

  • Evaluating your case: Reviewing medical records and consulting with experts to determine if you have a viable claim based on the standard of care and harm suffered.
  • Filing a lawsuit: Initiating legal action by filing a complaint against the responsible parties in the appropriate court.
  • Gathering evidence: Collecting medical records, expert testimonies, and other relevant evidence to build a strong case.
  • Negotiating with insurance companies: Working to secure a fair settlement that compensates you for your injuries without the need for a trial.
  • Litigating in court: Representing you during trial proceedings if a settlement cannot be reached, presenting evidence and arguing your case.
  • Calculating damages: Assessing the full extent of your losses, including medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
  • Handling expert testimony: Coordinating with medical experts who can testify on how the standard of care was breached and how it led to your injuries.

How Are Medical Malpractice Lawyers Paid?

Most medical malpractice lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if they recover compensation for you. Key aspects of this payment structure include:

  • Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer's fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the settlement or award.
  • No upfront costs: You do not pay any legal fees unless the lawyer successfully recovers compensation on your behalf.
  • Case expenses: Costs for expert witnesses, medical record retrieval, and court fees may be deducted from your settlement or award in addition to the lawyer's fee.

Always discuss the fee arrangement during your initial consultation to understand your financial obligations.

How Much Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee model. General estimates include:

  • Contingency fee: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total recovery amount.
  • Case expenses: Additional costs such as expert witness fees and court expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.

Ensure you receive a clear explanation of all potential fees and expenses before proceeding with your case.

Top Questions to Ask a Medical Malpractice Lawyer

Before hiring a medical malpractice lawyer, consider asking the following questions:

  1. What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?
    Confirm the lawyer has a successful track record with similar cases.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
