Casey Johnson did a great job representing my sister. He was always professional, confident and supportive. Even during the stressful negotiations he was upbeat and inspired our confidence. Perhaps the most important, Casey always showed respect and support for my sister during the entire process. We always knew that Casey had her best interest at heart.

Colby Kuvara was extremely helpful in settling my injury in which I was rear ended and required surgery. My medical bills were massive but she got them drastically reduced and got me a very fair settlement for my pain and suffering. Her responses to any of my inquiries were immediate and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone who has been injured.

I was pulled over for an OWI some months ago and hired John Steinhart as my legal representation. My professional license and career has been a challenged by this. My family life has been in a similar situation. John as my legal representation has helped me not only with my legal problems but also in my family/civil problems. Not many turn to an attorney because they are doing well, I am just grateful I have had an attorney that has been thoughtful and very helpful through my hardest times.

I found in Mr. Steinhart a very experienced ,knowledgeable, Professional attorney. But even more valuable was discovering Mr. Steinhart was a man to whom you felt cared about your case. He actually doesn't just by trade care about our justice system, but truly cares that our justice system at times fails us. He is a man that I felt doesn't just give concern to the monetary value of a case, But actually cares about the persons in the case. I feel its important to trust in attorneys that just winning every case isn't what's the most important , but making sure truth & Justice win the case. Thank you Mr. Steinhart for your willingness to help my son. May God Bless You and Yours Wherever Life's Journeys takes yall. Ms. Charlotte

When, through the culpable negligence of a large corporation, I was badly and lastingly injured, Mardirossian & Associates took on my case. I couldn't have been more fortunate. Armen Akaragian played a central role in securing a high-end settlement for me, and it is impossible for me to recommend him or the Mardirossian practice strongly enough. Armen's concern and solicitude for me and my cause were only matched by the dogged, intelligent ferocity with which he went after the guilty corporation, whose lawyers spent several years doing everything they could to evade a just outcome. Time and time again they deployed disingenuous dodges, delays, obstructions, and objections; time and again Armen and the Mardirossian crew reversed their machinations and exposed their mendacity. (At one point the defense attempted to move the case from a California court to a Federal one, because Federal courts tend to be less generous to claimants; Armen soundly trounced that tactic. Then the defense did their best to prevent us from deposing a key executive of the corporation; Armen fought back and secured the deposition -- and during that deposition, first methodically and brilliantly led the executive into damning untruths and then clearly exposed them for the damnable lies they were.) And through it all, in every phase of the process, Armen was kind, funny, warm, respectful, available, and absolutely solid. In sum: If Armen Akaragian is interested in your case, then count your blessings and jump at the chance.

Throughout the litigation process, Armen and his staff kept me very well informed on the latest developments in my case. In the end, the verdict was above and beyond what I expected. I would definitely recommend the law firm of Mardirossian & Associates, Inc. to any of my friends or family needing a lawyer.

Hanif provided consultation on my father's potential bankruptcy filing. After assessing the facts, he was honest and direct: bankruptcy wouldn't protect my father's assets against a pending civil suit. It can be difficult to find smart, ethical lawyers, and I am grateful to Hanif for providing us with his expertise (even when the result did not lead to a retainer). The conversation was the most productive one I've had (after researching and talking to lawyers for more than a week). I would highly recommend Hanif and Flader & Hirji.

My husband and I were overwhelmed with our family business, multiple judgments from creditors,mortgages on our personal residence,numerous personal liabilities, and tax liens. Several attorneys informed us it may not be possible to save our family business and home in a bankruptcy. David Flader and Hanif Hirji of Flader & Hirji, LLP represented us and obtained a full Chapter 7 discharge of all of our personal debt and judgments, and we were able to keep our home and family business. David Flader and Hanif Hirji both spent a great deal of time in explaining the process to us. They both provided us with a great deal of comfort and reassurance in our time of need. The detailed analysis, hard work, and compassion provided to us by the lawyers at Flader & Hirji, LLP provided us with the fresh start we needed in our lives. N. Sur

I turned to Hanif Hirji upon the recommendation of a friend after I felt I had been wronged in a business transaction with a partner. Not only did Hanif's knowledge of the law and intelligence solve the matter favorably for me, but actually achieved better results than I could have possibly predicted. I have retained his service and recommended him to others since that day. I have been a businessman in Diamond Bar for the last 30 years and have met several different lawyers in my career. None of them have impressed me as much as Hanif did, and certainly none, other than Hanifi, who I would have actually taken the time to go out of my way and write a positive review about.

We were lucky to find Deanna Stone and Aaron Morris of Morris and Stone Law Firm! I was being named in an Anti-Slapp case by Senator Catherine Blakespear. Morris and Stone jumped in, wrote the Judge a very well thought out and detailed statement with supporting evidence from previous Supreme Court cases demonstrating that I should not be named in the Anti-SLAPP. In the end the judge agreed with Morris & Stone's statement in its "Entirety". It was obvious the judge was impressed with Morris and Stone's defense. If I ever have any legal issues in the future I will certainly contact Aaron Morris and Deanna Stone. If you're reading this review I recommend you call them as well, they give a great consultation are extremely knowledgeable and fair. I'm very thankful that I found Morris & Stone!

Deanna is very professional and willing to help. I called for a free consultation and was surprised that my question was answered so thoroughly that I was able to proceed without a lawyer. Deanna answered all of my questions and at no time did I feel she was waiting for me to hire her. She was genuinely interested in my problem and spent about 45 minutes talking to me and even told me to call her back if I had any other questions. Her advice was spot on and did not cost me a dime. In the event I do need an attorney in the future, I will definitely call Deanna again.

I have been a long time permanent resident for 30 years. In my early 20's I got mixed up in drugs and picked up some very serious drug convictions. My green card was expiring last year so I decided to submit my application for naturalization. I went to my interview and was detained and a deportation order was issued against me. I was detained for 30 days. Meanwhile my family called attorneys and many turned us away with no hope on relief in my situation. Fabian was one of the only attorneys that saw hope in my situation. My family hired him and he showed up in immigration court and I was released on bail. 8 months later I had my first court appearance where Serrato law was able to get my deportation case terminated based on a decision from the 9th district court only 2 weeks before my court date. The government agreed and my citizenship app was approved. I couldn't be more happy with these guys. Highly recommend. These guys know there stuff. Thanks guys!!!

He will make himself available and he will tell you how it is. I used Danny's services to set up a Trust, I relied on Danny when I had a business location issue, and I called on Danny when I had a labor dispute. Each time, Danny was there for me. He told me how it was and helped me to the fullest capacity. Danny is not the type of person you meet and instantly want to hug, but when he comes through, guns blazing, you won't stop hugging him. He's not a bullshiter, he's a doer, and everything he's done for me was quality work and didn't cost me an arm and a leg. I really appreciate Danny as an attorney and as a friend.

I was recently in a difficult--and frankly, scary--dispute with my landlord, and initially felt completely intimidated and overwhelmed by the situation. I talked to a number of attorneys, including several of the more well-known tenant's rights firms in the Bay Area, many of whom gave me the run-around, or agreed to handle some aspects of the case but not others. I'm very grateful that I finally connected with Jason. He took on the entirety of the case, and developed an overall strategy to navigate the complexities of the situation. He handled the case with great skill and competence, and brought it to a very positive conclusion. He's a clear, strategic thinker, fair-minded, and not intimidated by the bullying tactics one encounters in these situations. And he really is just a good guy, and treats his clients very fairly and honorably. If you find yourself in this kind of situation, look him up!

As a seasoned business professional, I have retained at least 10 attorneys in the past for matters such as bankruptcy creditor actions, partnership disputers, labor law defense, customs disputes, commercial real estate and copyright actions. Of all the law firms my businesses have retained, Sally and her team at West Themis are by far, the most astonishing. They work 10x faster and more efficient than all of the attorneys and law firms that I've used. Sally's methods are very concise, methodical, and strategic. She filed a certain motion in a case that my former attorneys at a larger firm never did. With her firm, I got answers, strategy, and results at much lower rates. Sally is the managing partner at West Themis Law. This law firm has a team of attorneys and professionals that handle different related areas of law that helps them strategize and attack each matter with different areas of law. They don't do copyright. All in all, I am very impressed. I think their secret to delivering quality, fast, and affordable representation is because of Sally's management style and use of technology. Also, I am sure that not locating themselves in a high riser definitely translates to savings to their clients. Like I said, highly recommended.

Dan Shapiro saved my life. If it weren't for Dan Shapiro I could be in a world of hurt right now. Although I was factually innocent, serious charges had been brought against me by someone seeking to use the legal system to retaliate. And even though I did not commit the crime that I was accused of, my defense wasn't perfect. Certain factors gave the appearence that the crime could have possibly happened. Enough so, that the District Attorney's Office was pursuing a conviction. The Police officer who arrested me had decided that I was guilty or deserved punishment even though I was innocent and and made the scenario worse by lying in his police report to make me look worse. I was truly crushed as a human being, my family and loved ones were as well, very distraught over the entire event. My life had never been worse than it was at this point. All of this is over now thanks to Dan. The case has been completely dismissed. The difference between Dan and other lawyers from what I can tell is this. 1) Dan really cares about his clients. Dan really cares about other people and genuinely wants to help. When Dan decides that he will accept you as a client, he does everything he can to ensure the best result he can get for your case. 2) Dan gets to the root of the Law, stripping away the confusions and complexities which other lawyers bog themselves down in. 3) Dan has a good attitude, is intelligent and is very professional. Judges, Prosecuting Attorney's and Jury's cant help but to like Dan and give credence to what he has to say in the Courtroom. Which might make a difference in how they view your case. To summarize; If you want a Lawyer who will really care about your case and do everything he can within the Law to get you the best outcome possible, Dan is the man.

I was one of the unfortunate people who got caught up in the recall of hip replacement hardware. At the time I was in need I was unable to find a single firm in my area of Portsmouth, VA who was taking clients with this particular problem. I contacted Walkup, Melodia through their website and was put in contact with Conor Kelly. He was very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. He answered all of my questions and never failed to return a phone call promptly. During this long four year process both he and subsequently Khaldoun Baghdadi handled my case expertly and was able to satisfy my case better than I ever expected. I would not hesitate to use them again or hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing representation. By the way, their staff of secretaries and paralegals were equally qualified and extremely helpful.

Khaldoun & Matthew represented us in a wrongful death case. They were exceptional attorney's. They were both very attentive to our needs and extremely sensitive to our case since it was involving the death of our son. They went above and beyond what we expected and got us the best outcome that was possible. They left no stone unturned in their investigation and gathering of evidence. I have the utmost respect and confidence in them. They both have a lot of integrity and were very honest and real with us. They have a lot of compassion and even reduced the fees that they took in the end. That was huge in my book. I very highly recommend them. I doubt you will find better attorney's then Khaldoun and Matthew. They are both an amazing pair of attorney's and work very well together. They are the best of the best!

Marc's law firm was there for me when no other attorney would take my criminal case. I went with Lisa a few times to court and she informed me about my case status when Marc was out to court and not available. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about my case.

Marc had helped us on a personal injury case which is how we met Lisa. Lisa met with us several times without ever charging us before we finally decided bankruptcy was right for us. Lisa explained everything to us and helped us plan every move. Everything went like clockwork. Thanks Lisa - You're the Greatest!

Adrian handled my criminal case expertly. He worked with me so that he could see exactly what happened from my perspective and then used all of it to present my case in the light most helpful to me. He is so experienced and cares so much about the outcome of the case. Though it was one of the most stressful times of my life, I felt like I truly had someone on my side and it showed in the results.

I lost my father in a sudden, tragic accident, and did not want to deal with the insurance company, so I hired Adrian to represent my family. What was supposed to be a quick open-and-shut case (which the insurance company would have loved) ended up being much more, thanks to Adrian's research and expertise. He saw my family was deserving of more than the insurance company had offered, and fought hard for a fair deal. It ended up being a long, stressful battle, but Adrian provided personal, caring, patient guidance and counsel throughout. The case is over, and my family can now put this case behind us and remember our father beyond the accident. I recommend Adrian without hesitation. Thank you, Adrian, for all that you have done for me and my family.

I hired Joyce to represent my daughter in a DUI case this past year. It's a parents worst nightmare to get a call from jail that their child was arrested. I spoke to Joyce the next day, and she calmed me down immediately. She walked me through the steps, what we needed to do, and how to make this as painless as possible. She was prompt, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable. I felt like we were lost, but she helped us. I hope to never be in this situation again, but if I do, Ms. Valenzuela is the one to call.

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You

A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.

Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.

When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?

Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:

  • Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
  • Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
  • Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
  • Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
  • Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
  • Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.

What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?

A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:

  • Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
  • Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
  • Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
  • File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
  • Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
  • Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
  • Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.

How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:

  • Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
  • Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
  • No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.

Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.

How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:

  • Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
  • Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.

While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.

Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer

Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:

  1. What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award.
  3. How long will my case take?
    While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled.
  4. How often do you take cases to trial?
    Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary.
  5. Will you personally handle my case?
    In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim.
  6. Do you have references from past clients?
    Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.

How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer

To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
  • Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
  • Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
  • Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:

  • Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
  • Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
  • Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
  • Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
  • Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.

By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
