I was about to make the huge mistake of giving up when I got a call back from Mann & Elias Law Office. I am so happy they called me back because they SAVED me! They fought for my case full force every step of the way. Their research, analytical skills, and perseverance made my case a success. Their perspective and their advice have been so concise and valuable, which is very important when you have to make a very important decision under so much pressure. The attorney, Imad Elias is a BULL, and he will fight for you along with his Awesome team of Kind, Understanding, Knowledgeable and Professional staff for your case. Do not look elsewhere, you are in the right place! Thank you Mr. Imad and Mann & Elias Team (Sofya Asatryan), you will always be in my prayers, thank you again for your guidance and your help, it has been a pleasure working with you.

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. I will be definitely coming back in the future if I am in need of a lawyer in a field that they specialize in.

Jonathan and Kim have been handling my case since my initial injury, and their expertise and dedication were key to securing a higher than expected final payout. Their strategy throughout the process was excellent, and they stand out as some of the best in the industry, not just for their results but also for their professionalism and integrity. The best thing you can do to help your case is to follow their instructions exactly and give them as much time as they need.

This is the first time I had been in an accident but I already knew I didn't want to deal with insurance or the other party. Jonathan gave me a call the next day and explained the complete process. He was able to secure a great settlement but the best part was his office was always available for questions when I had them.

I highly recommend Laura Hassan and the entire team at Madison Law. Laura represented me in my Divorce and oI was absolutely pleased with the outcome of my settlement. The entire team worked so hard for me, we were running against the clock at times and they burned the midnight oil to ensure my documents and statements represented my best interests. Throughout the process, I felt safe, comfortable and most importantly respected. My divorce was complex and involved forensic accountants. The team took my case head on after I parted ways with an attorney who had been negligent. My case was settled within six months of my retaining Madison Law. I would use this Law firm again without hesitation.

Laura Hassan Navigating a challenging custody, property, and support dispute, I had the privilege of being represented by Laura, an exceptional family law attorney. From our initial consultation, she demonstrated a profound understanding of the legal landscape, and a genuine commitment to my case. Her strategic expertise and unwavering support were instrumental in securing a favorable outcome, particularly in the custody matters that held paramount importance to me. Laura’s professionalism is matched by her compassionate approach. She took the time to listen, understand my concerns, and tailor her representation to my unique needs. Her guidance provided clarity during a tumultuous time, and her dedication ensured that my family’s best interests were always at the forefront. Although I had to discontinue her services due to financial constraints, I remain deeply grateful for her contributions. I wholeheartedly recommend Laura to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, empathetic, and tenacious advocate in family law.

I was really stressed after being in a 4-car accident. The stress of dealing with such a big accident and handling insurance felt overwhelming, but from start to finish, Jonathan and his law team took over and handled everything for me. They communicated with my insurance, dealt with the other parties, and ensured that all logistics and communications were taken care of, allowing me to focus on recovering and not worry about the details. Jonathan was incredibly supportive, and in the end, he won me the full policy limit! This is exactly why having a great lawyer matters--he went above and beyond to make the process smooth and stress-free. If you're looking for a lawyer who's knowledgeable and experienced, I highly recommend Jonathan and his team!

Nobody wants to be involved in an accident, that said ''Life Happens". This time, instead of trying to 'work it out' with the insurance and trying to figure out how to handle things on my own, Mr. Shin and his entire office helped me navigate the entire process. That in itself was a great relief. They helped me understand how to get care for my accident and how my financial responsibilities would be handled without going into medical debt. This was a huge concern as care was needed to get my standard of living back, and the insurance companies are not your advocates in this department. When questions came up, they were there to answer via email or phone and did not make me wait days for a response. Every call and message was handled with patience, kindness, and care. Their experience was obvious as they provided most answers before the questions even came up. Many Thanks to Jonathan Shin and every member of the Shin Law Group!!

There is no question how difficult and heavily emotional the divorce already is for the person. Having an honest, direct, accessible lawyer who is actually very good and knowledgeable at what he does while being caring is VERY important. Also he is very quick, which trust me is really important in the process. I definitely recommend Pouya to anyone going through this difficult phase of their lives, so they don’t have an extra worry on top of all other heavy changes happening in their lives.

Going through any legal litigation process is daunting and scary. Divorce especially is hard due to the many emotions that are associated with leaving a life behind. The impact it can have on you and your family members can last forever. That’s why it is imperative to find someone who can represent you that you can trust, has your best interest in mind, and will walk you through this painful process. I hired Pouya to help me through my divorce process. He was upfront, honest, and told me exactly what to expect and what I needed to do. Something that stood out to me was how communicative he was and how he was always there to answer any question I had. This is unheard of as most lawyers are impossible to get a hold of. Pouya was instrumental in getting me what I wanted through my divorce and helped me every step of the way. From someone who has gone through this process, I can say without hesitation, Pouya is one of the best out there. I highly recommend him and would not have been able to get through this process without him.

My name is David W. Klasing, I’m an attorney and a CPA and consider myself a scary judge of talent. Roy Comer is a very talented attorney and even more importantly he is ethical, honest, trustworthy and has adhered to the strictest confidentiality in an issue that I referred my own mother to him over. My mother was injured by her best friend when she lost control of her car while in the act of taking my mother to the emergency ward with symptoms of an impending heart attack. My mother was seriously injured and this placed her deeper into an existing financial crisis. She did not want to sue her best friend but her circumstances left her no choice. The family was placing tremendous pressure on her to do just that. She approached me and requested that I find her an attorney that would limit the law suit solely to the amount her best friend’s insurance would pay and would not go after all of her best friend’s assets. After some extensive research I referred her to Roy Comer. Roy did just that and as a result my mother has received the maximum award under her friends insurance and her best friend, who was done driving anyway, was not hurt in the process. Because of Roy, her friendship, that she cherishes so much, has survived the law suit and continued to flourish and she is in a much better financial position which has taken pressure off of my whole family. I highly recommend Roy Comer as a Personal Injury and civil litigation attorney and one hell of a decent human being. Thank you from the Klasing family Roy!

I was in an automobile accident and Mr Hausmann knew exactly what to do; when to do it and ultimately negotiated a settlement that was fair. His staff also was extremely helpful when he wasn’t available. Calls were returned timely and questions answered sufficiently. He has excellent negotiation skills and I would definitely recommend him. His office is also very easy to get , and that was important to me, being retired.

I was in an accident involving a rental car and the driver provided the wrong information. Michael Royer Law was able to track down the driver and handled the case super efficiently. Within less than a week I was receiving a rental and beginning therapy for my injuries. The group was able to get me an excellent payout, which was a lot more than was originally offered by the insurance. Cesia was so helpful and efficient, and always kept me updated on the case as necessary. The handling of this case was done super professional and efficiently, and I will definitely be using Michael Royer Law for all my future cases.

I usually don't write reviews. But Michael Royer and staff were more than outstanding and need to be congratulated. I was in a major rear end car accident which caused severe pain on my spine and a concussion. I was out of work for months. I lost my job because of it. Michael was encouraging and referred me to clinical treatment. He and staff worked so hard on my case! they got a superb settlement. I was able to all of my outstanding debts incurred during my time off, medical bills, credit cards used, and compensation for future expenses. I was so relieved to have them finally paid off. Michael was tireless in working on my case and ALWAYS updated me on the status of my case. He even brought in an associate attorney Cesia Alvarez to assist. I could go on and on, but, I'm just an elated client and can not speak more highly of a professional team. Michael and staff are AMAZING!

We had a fantastic experience working with Beatrice Phan Law for updating our family living trust. We had created, revised, and updated our trust over the past several years with three other estate attorneys previously, and I can say with certainty that Beatrice Phan Law provided the BEST and most thorough service and planning of them all. We especially enjoyed working with her client services director, Helen Pak, who is AMAZING-- exceptional listener, very attentive and thorough, warm and friendly, professional and kind...all at the same time. Beatrice has a clear process that she follows for her clients, which I appreciate. It's something that doesn't happen overnight, nor should it: creating or updating your trust is an important step in taking care of your family and loved ones, so it does require a lot of thought and time, especially if you need to have those deeper conversations with your spouse about things. Beatrice and Helen were great in working with our busy schedules as well as keeping us accountable and reminded of the upcoming follow-up appointments we had together. We greatly appreciate all that Beatrice and Helen have done in bringing us peace of mind and taking care of us.

He was very friendly and patient with me. Mr. Rajaee explained all my options to me and walked me down the process step by step. He took care of all my worries. I never had to worry about anything with him. He sent me a substantial settlement that compensates the injury I suffered both emotional trauma and physical.

Ms. Demers represented me in a LTD (Long Term Disability) case and we won—my claim was finally accepted. I would not have won without her championing my case. I have worked with several attorneys over the years on other matters and she stands above the rest. Her hard work, compassion, attention to detail, knowledge and her skill brought us to a win through a well written appeal to the insurance company. She knew how to handle a difficult insurance company. She was also a great support to me during a very stressful time. I highly recommend her.

Working with Sarah Demers was absolutely amazing. Not only was she a brilliant attorney, there were many nights she pulled double-duty as my counselor. Sarah always kept me in the loop on things, and the case progression. For someone who has never been in a lawsuit, it can be a terrifying experience, and Sarah helped guide me through a very difficult time in my life. Sarah radiates kindness, but that is only a portion of the strength and determination that lies beneath. I will always be grateful for everything she did.

First, I would like to say that I am an attorney myself. A former colleague of mine recommended Mr. Baruch. From the first consultation up through the end of the case I could not have wished for better representation. Mr. Baruch is sharp, a creative thinker, and knows the law inside and out. He is a fighter, and was an excellent advocate for me. He was also compassionate and attuned to my specific needs and issues. He is a straight shooter. I did not think it was possible to find all of these characteristics rolled into one attorney. I hope I am never embroiled in litigation again but if I am I would retain Mr. Baruch every time. To say he is an excellent litigator is an understatement.

There are reasons that high profile attorneys get to where they are. Eric Dubin returned my email in less than 24 hours. After a short (free consultation), he was immediately honest in saying it wasn't his area of expertise. But he supported me, and even sent words of encouragement, such as "hang in there." PI attorneys get a bad rap from time to time, but there are people like Eric who could (given his well documented trial skills) win probably any case. But he didn't try to be everything to everybody. He was kind, honest, and most of all replied. In fact of all of the attorneys I consulted the one thing that sets these premier attorneys apart is that they actually do call you back. After finding out that a black mold case is not his strongest suit, he never the less was kind, encouraging, and took time to respond to me. By contrast one other supposedly preeminent black mold attorneys who was referred by another attorney (who even made a call on my behalf to get the specific name of the attorney to call, never returned a phone call, nor an email, nor did I ever get an email after filling out one of those utterly annoying "chat now" messages. I've followed Eric's career, and he doesn't talk the talk. He's brilliant, he cares about people, and he is responsive. I hope that I never need an attorney in the areas where he truly excels, but I would go back to him in a moment, and I'd refer him to anyone injured, or unjustly treated.

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.
