He works on your case, and help you out of situation. However he is not the one really care about you. You pay and he get job done. If you are innocent, personal situation, unfair result? No... He doesn't care. And at the end he will push you a lot to accept offer.

I watched Mr. Leiva go way above and beyond for a very close family member the first time I ever met him. Throughout the entire process he stayed in touch with my family to let us know what was going on at all times this was in 2002 in a federal court room.
In 2012 Mr. Leiva was called by my family again for what was a very very weak case but very very serious charges and accusations he treated as if it were like any other case that he puts hrs and hrs of work witch is very highly appreciated. You most definitely want his brilliant and savvy mind on your side 100%.
I had issue with Mr. Leiva and of course with a mind as brilliant as his it doesn’t come cheap, nor should it but after spending as much as my family did throughout the years one would like to think I can give this family a break. Like I stated my family has been relying on Mr Leiva since 2002 for a wide range of cases, knowing my family’s personal situation I just would have thought that just maybe he would be a bit more understanding when it came to the amount of money that was spent especially in my case .
With that said I’d recommend him to loved ones without hesitation, he’s simply on a different level!
10/10 without a doubt!

Unbelievable experience. I called this firm and was transferred to speak to a paralegal lady, thanks a bunch! She listened to my concern, made her own assumptions without consulting an attorney, then proceeded to tell me 'she' wasn't comfortable with the call and told me to basically take a hike and then hung up the phone. I have never experienced such unprofessional behavior from any company. Partners should be made aware that you have an extremely rude and unprofessional paralegal working in your company that will continue to damage your reputation.

The absolute worse as a Gaurdian AD literally. He is completely bias. I'm in the process of going to the bar and doing everything I can to make sure Noone else has ro experience what I experience. He painted a horrible picture of me in court and even lied. I have the whole trial recorded. I will present it to whoever I can.

To hire the services of this firm was one of the best decisions I ever made.
They were extremely professional from the beginning to the end of my case. They keep me up date at every moment and always were very realistic on the expectation I could have on the outcome of my case.
They gave an excellent representation and always were very respectful of my painful circumstances at that time, giving me also a great deal of moral support.
Should I ever need legal assistance for a similar case, I would certainly go back to them in the blink of an eye. Or recommend them to anyone who needs similar services.

I got in my first major car accident last year in November and it was a major blow financially and emotionally for me because it wasn't my fault at all and I had no idea where to turn too for legal help. By the grace of God my fiancee's coworker suggested this law firm for my case because he had such a good experience with them and let me tell you he wasn't lying. Throughout the whole process so far they have been so helpful and nice making this traumatic experience for me so much easier to get through. While recovering from my injury they even sent little care packages! Me and my fiancee thought that was so nice of them, For them to go out of there way to do that for us. I have full confidence in them resolving my case and hopefully this review helps someone else reach out to get the help and compensation they deserve as well. God Bless this law firm for helping so many people at a time where, like me is so traumatic and hard, and when it seems like there is no where to turn for good help.

Jim Parrish was extremely helpful and provided us with a free consultation related to an auto collision personal injury claim. He was highly professional, friendly, and clearly very knowledgeable in this area. He was very direct in which services of his we may or may not need, unlike some personal injury lawyers who just try and squeeze as much money as possible from their clients. I highly recommend him. Thank you Jim.

I cannot thank Mr. Hicks enough for the incredible support and expertise he provided during the most difficult time of my life. I was facing a false sexual assault accusation that left me feeling trapped with no way out. I was at risk of deportation and losing my job, and the stress was unbearable for months. At one point, I even felt hopeless and suicidal.
Mr. Hicks not only brought his extensive knowledge and skill to my case, but he also treated me like family. He truly cared about my well-being, and his unwavering support gave me the strength to keep going. Through his hard work and dedication, he was able to get my case dismissed and turn my life around.
If you are looking for a lawyer who will fight for you with compassion and unmatched expertise, I highly recommend Mr. Hicks. He is a lifesaver, and I will forever be grateful for everything he has done for me.

Thanks to her expert familiarity with the applicable laws and options, thorough preparation, and persistent followup, we won our case and I was fully compensated for my losses. She was responsive to my inquires, kept me well informed, and helped me understand the path forward. I would call her again without hesitation.

I was being sued by a collections company who was trying to capitalize on my dispute with a shoddy construction contractor I had been battling for years. Erin pursued my case with a relentless approach to fairness, forcing the collections company to drop the suit and resulting in the dismissal of the case. I could not thank Erin enough for helping to lift this weight off my shoulders.

Ms. Masin worked extremely hard alongside me to determine the best way to handle each situation as it arose during my separation and divorce. She represented me very well in court and could think quickly on her feet. She made decisions in the moment, based on her extensive experience in the courtroom, which resulted in successful litigation on my behalf. She is open minded and gives honest and forthright opinions and advice regarding legal situations. Her solid integrity is a testimony to her successful reputation. She helped me tremendously and I am convinced she will give the same work ethic and integrity to all her clients in any legal situation. Ms. Masin is highly recommended by me and I have already referred her to many friends.

Erin Masin, is absolutely excellent. She is thorough, well studied, (very knowledgeable), has an incredible memory, and is like an AI engine when in court; she knows exactly what to say, and when to say it as she is dynamic and can shift gears on a dime all while making it look rehearsed for a week. Her placement, and logical order of *points and *arguments, will leave you wondering if she's also a mathematician. Let the other side beware of this lawyer.
Also worth mentioning - her court presence (examination and cross-examination) is right out of a movie. Her summary/closure statements are second to none.

My case was a somewhat complex domestic situation, a misdemeanor charge that could have resulted in jail time. During my first consultation, Senator Surovell listened to my concerns, patiently answered all of my questions, and made suggestions that helped my case. In the intervening months between the charge and my trial, Scott promptly responded to any questions or concerns that came up. Being charged with any crime is scary, and you need a well-informed lawyer to navigate the murky, sometimes treacherous territory of our criminal justice system. I knew that Senator Surovell had a reputation as one of the best defense lawyers in Fairfax County. And he lived up to that reputation Thanks to his skillful handling of my case, the charges were dropped. I could not have asked for a better outcome, and I will be forever grateful for his help during a difficult time in my life.
Novelist Raymond Chandler once said, “The law isn’t justice. It’s a very imperfect mechanism. If you press exactly the right buttons and are also lucky, justice may show up in the answer.” Hiring Senator Surovell was exactly the right button to press.

I was charged with a DWI and Civil Refusal back in February and was terrified of the consequences a conviction would entail. Fortunately, a friend referred me to Scott Surovell who agreed to represent me and set a plan in action from our very first call. He helped me understand how the process would take place and our strategy for my defense. As my Court date approached, we continued once before finally going before the Arlington County General District Court. The State Prosecutor had not offered any plea deals so it was to go to trial.
Scott was a masterful trial attorney. It was impressive to watch him work and gave me confidence we would come out with a positive ruling. After he dismantled the Prosecution, it was agreed that the Charge would be reduced to Reckless Driving and the Commonwealth would Motion to Nolle Prosequi the Refusal Charge. This was a HUGE relief. I cannot thank Scott enough for his work on my case and would recommend him to anyone seeking a Defense Attorney.
10/10, 5-Stars, 2 thumbs up, the best attorney I have ever interacted with.

Mr. Avery helped me reach a fair settlement with the car insurance company of a person who rear-ended me while I was stopped at a red light. Before working with Mr. Avery, I spent six months unsuccessfully trying to get a fair settlement on my own. After he engaged, we had a settlement in a matter of weeks. Thank you, Mr. Avery.

After being charged with DWI, dealing with other attorneys who had given up on my case and being left in the dark with almost zero chance of success was tremendously stressful.
After contacting him, he is not only shown care but also taken the time to hear my side of the story and have treated me as more than simply a client. As a result, I’ve started to experience a wave of relief.
Although, I had a very slim chance for a favorable outcome he made tireless efforts using his exceptional case-building skills and professionalism. He went through the intricate details of my case.
Prior to court date he was ready to fight hard for my case in every direction using clever, clear and great plan of action to argue and strategically invalidate the prosecutor’s contention.
He always returned my calls and emails and always gave me the assurance that we would get through that trying time. His experience and insights have driven my case from the beginning and have given me immense confidence.
He arrived at court with assurance and tenacity. He provided a conclusion for my case that exceeded my expectations. I could not have asked for anyone better, and I am in awe of his legal knowledge.
With the help of his dedicated assistance and competent legal counsel my charges dropped down. I’ll never forget the value of his services to my family and I. He was not only helping me to get back to the life by alleviating my stress and anxiety; he had also much surpassed what I expected and made me to feel that he was not only an excellent attorney, but an angel sent by God.
Words cannot convey how much I’m very appreciative for his entire legal service & I would 1000% recommend his representation.

Came out to look at an issue we were having with our home builder. Asked us to write up a summary and they would let us know what options we have. I took the time to put together a detailed summary and never heard back. I followed up with them and they said they would give me a call, and never did. If you don’t want the work or don’t think we have a good case, why not just say so to my face instead of wasting my time?

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:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
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. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
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. -
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.
