Effective, focused, and respectful and are the three words that I would use to describe my experience with John, Andrew and the entire LBC team.
Effective, in achieving the desired results throughout the entire process, from summary judgement, through the appeal process.
Focused only on the merits of the case and the applicable law, he was never distracted from the facts by the opposing counsel’s ever-changing stories, claims and threats.
Respectful, of the emotional impact that any litigation has on a person. Whenever we needed to speak it was always purposeful, direct and reassuring, never wanting to waste time riding on the emotional rollercoaster, but always willing to listen my concerns.
I would highly recommend highly recommend John, Andrew and the entire LBC team to anyone who is in the need of effective legal services.

I've know John longer than I've been married, about 14 years. Turns out it's a lot more expensive to be married than having a great attorney!
John has been a great support and friend, helping us with important business matters, and a few set back life can put in your way.
Above everything John wins and gets things done. I highly recommend his services.

James Christensen has been a great pleasure to work with. When I first consulted with him, he was realistic with my expectations and the timeline of car accident cases get resolved. He is straight forward and maintained constant communication with me in regard to the status of my case. I am extremely happy with the outcome and the settlement amount he was able to secure. I couldn't ask for a better attorney!

Jim left no stone unturned when gathering the needed evidence to show that a financial broker did not have our brother’s best interest in mind. Our brother is medically disabled. The recommendations made by this broker were followed by our brother who trusted him implicitly. Jim and his team spent countless hours collecting documents and enlisted the aid of experts in the field to show sufficient evidence of less than honorable intent by this broker. As a result, a significant sum was recovered from the losses incurred by our brother as a result of the actions by this broker. It is because of Jim Christensen that our brother now has his medical retirement back on a reasonable footing and hopefully will keep him supported as he lives out his life in a nursing care facility. Jim Christian always advised us on the case as it progressed and was honest with us concerning any potential outcomes. We are very thankful for his tireless work and commitment to seeing justice done.

I hired James Christensen (Jim) in March of 2016 to resolve an ongoing situation I had with two other attorneys. My matter involved some ethics issues, a civil lawsuit involving a $250,000 insurance settlement and disputes over legal fees. After speaking with various law firms, I was fortunate enough to be referred to Jim.
I was impressed by Jim for multiple reasons. He was very knowledgeable about the laws pertaining to my circumstances and had a sense of the current legal trends in Vegas. He was not intimidated by my case like other attorneys I consulted.
Jim didn’t tell me what I wanted to hear instead he told me what I needed to know. He explained alternative approaches and realistic outcomes. He provided practical advice about what would be in my best interest even though this strategy meant a smaller fee for him.
Jim was diplomatically strong during negotiations yet was able to foster cooperation with the other attorneys involved. Strong interpersonal skills enabled Jim to work with extremely varied personalities and obtain a favorable outcome for me. His relationships in the legal community also helped him to resolve most issues outside of the court room.
On a personal note, Jim was patient with my frequent questions and at times, my nervousness. Jim empathized with my frustration and I could tell he was committed to helping me. My case had been lingering unresolved since 2014 and Jim got me a dismissal as quickly as he could.
I was pleased with the resolution and my portion of the settlement. I respect Jim as an attorney and a person. I am very grateful for the service he provided me. I would recommend attorney James Christensen to my family, friends, and business associates.

I got hit by a tow truck in 2014, and initially retained a different attorney. After becoming extremely frustrated with the process, I was referred to Jason Cooks office. From the very beginning Jason was helpful, patient and kind. I had a million questions, since I had never been injured in a car accident before and he took the time to answer every one of them. Jason and his wonderful staff are fair, honest and hard working. I had my doubts in the beginning after dealing with the first attorney I hired, however I was not just treated like a client by Jason Cooks office, I was treated like family. If I ever was in need of his services again, I would not hesitate to work with him again. Also I brag about his office all of the time, and would refer him to anyone I know in need of an attorney. They are the best in the business, and i want to thank them for making this process a lot easier.

I hired Jason Cook in 2009 over the phone, by recommendation from one of my doctors in Las Vegas after moving to Arizona, for a personal injury suffered in 2008. This was after two different attorneys took my case and then decided my case was too big and difficult. Jason was/is honest, straightforward, accessible by both phone and email, which eased my mind and nerves, all I had to focus on was continuing my medical care. It took us five years to reach a settlement in my case, but I knew I had Jason there to help me each step of the way. My case was not easy and we went up against a huge insurance company, not to mention my injuries were complicated. I had to have several surgeries, plus prior injuries. I was very happy to have Jason and his team on my side. His staff is also very friendly and helpful. Jason Cook will never promise anything he cannot deliver. I would hire Jason and his team in a heartbeat again should I ever need his services again. When counting friends Jason is among them. I have sent friends his way and will continue to do so.

Long story short - Mr Dorin got me the physical therapy treatment I needed after my accident six months ago and I was financially well compensated as a result of being hit in this same accident by a drunk driver. Moreover, I’ve been involved in three previous accidents and this was the best experience I had overall and it was due to the expertise of Mr. Dorin. I highly recommend him!

I had a traffic ticket that went into warrant. Frantic, I contacted Lukas B. McCourt's office and literally within 1 day my warrant was taken care. Then 1 week later, Lukas B. McCourt, went to court for me and got my fine reduced dramatically. What a life saver. I recommend his services to anyone that has the same issue.

Jan was recently referred to me by a highly profile attorney. Let's just say this person is a Good-Man.
I had a consultation with Jan during a game of Raquetball at Lifetime fitness. This is where I do a lot of business. Because golf gives you skin cancer
I have to say I was blown away at his knowledge of the law and the city being raised here.
I myself am a 30 year resident with multiple businesses and ex wives. Don't do that lol... the ex wives part
I will definitly recommend him to all my friends and family.

After fighting SSA for 7 years with a different, inept attorney, I received a fully favorable decision on my case only three weeks after my hearing. The entire staff at this firm were amazing! From my first call with Brian to hearing prep and brief with Martin to my actual hearing handled by Peter (who flew in to handle it), they worked so hard on my behalf. My hearing was on a Monday morning. Knowing how anxious I was, Peter called me on Sunday to offer last minute support.
Anytime I had questions about my case, I received a call back or email answer within a few hours.
I am so incredibly grateful for all of the hard work of this incredible team of professionals.

I had an amazing experience with this firm. My attorney Brian Lunt was fantastic. Because of past experiences I was hesitant to hire a lawyer, but Brian changed my mind about lawyers. He was kind and respectful , he responded to all of my calls and emails the same day, and treated me like I was family. I would recommend him to everyone.

His staff is kind too.

I had an accident and I found them on line. The case was a personal injury case. I called the office and spoke to David Kohlmeier, Case Manager. He took action right away and set me up with a car service to pick me up because he was concerned about my accident. I came into the office and he even met me downstairs to help me to the office since I was using crutches. He then introduced me to Hazel, Personal Injury Case Manager. I was then introduced to Michael Becker Esq. They had my settlement in a matter of 3 months. I was very happy with my whole experience with the law firm and I was very pleased with the settlement amount. I want to thank Hazel, David and Michael Becker for an amazing experience... PS: Hazel is amazing, she helped me through the whole process....Jeremy Beasley Esq also assisted me with this case along with Hazel

I have known and worked with Michael for almost a decade. His knowledge of the law and procedural rules is astounding. His oral advocacy skills are some of the best I have witnessed. Michael understands the nuances of personal injury. He has practiced on both the plaintiff and defense side and is truly one of the most qualified attorneys I know. He thrives in the courtroom and is candid in his assessment of cases. He is well respected in the legal community for his demeanor and professional candor.

Jason has a natural ability to transform difficult concepts into cogent and persuasive arguments both orally and in writing. As a litigator, he is assertive and confident; as a writer he is deliberate and conscientious; and as a person he is charming and witty.
Perhaps more than any other person I know, when Jason makes a statement, you can count on it being true. I have lost more than one argument by discovering that the facts were stubbornly in Jason's favor.

I was in a motor vehicle accident while on vacation in Las Vegas. After being rear ended and suffering a concussion I started to experience lots of medical issues. I hired an attorney in Las Vegas to help me but he had no experience in Mild traumatic brain injury . Big Mistake! He had no clue, he thought all I had was a headache and it would go away.
I started to look for a new attorney as I came across Tim Titolo's site. I called him and after talking to him it was clear he understood brain injuries! He was so knowledgeable and compassionate. Tim was able to get me a fair settlement in just a few months of taking over the claim! I can't say enough about Tim, he always returned my calls and emails and answered all of my questions. Tim is an expert on brain injuries if you have been injured and suffered a brain injury call him he has the experience and knowledge to understand this life altering injury.

I am very leery of having to use an attorney for anything. I have been in many accidents that people recommended an attorney but luckily I have not had to use them. But for my recent incident only because of my outcome sustaining a TBI (tramatic Brain injury) along with other injuries to other extremities Tim Titolo was recommended to me by a trusted friend. After researching a few other attorneys my husband and I were confident with all the facts found on Mr. Titolo. Although my case was not as high profile as he is experienced with we had no doubt that we would be able to trust in his knowledge where we lacked in the given situation. I would highly recommend the Titolo Law Offices services if you find yourself with serious injuries such as a Brain injury.

I am so happy to review my attorney, Mr. Funk. He took care of my case, even with the challenges presented and got me much more than I thought possible for my suffering. I interviewed four other attorneys before going with Mr. Funk, because I felt he was the most realistic. He over-delivered. He communicated along the way, and always called me back with answers to my questions. Thank you, Mr. Funk!

This was my first accident lawsuit and I can’t thank kris enough! Me being a mother with 3 kids losing my job and transportation within a month of each other I was so stressed out and didn’t know where to turn..Kris contacted me not even an hour after being dropped off by my tow truck company he’s been on top of my case ever since! I wasn’t expecting it to settle so fast as I’ve read different stories online but Kris has made this process so easy for me. From getting me a rental car to helping with me getting access to the funds while my case was still in process all the way up to notifying me of the settlement payment which the insurance company paid and the max at that! I can’t thank him enough I’d trust him with any injury case of mine god forbid me getting into another accident though of course lol for my 1st experience with this situation I wish I could give him 10 stars! His energy is genuine and he will fight for you! Highly recommended!

Mr. Helmick came highly referred by a friend that had used him for his personal injury case when Kris was working for another local firm. I happened to cross pathes with him and had a need for his services as he was starting his own firm, Pacific West Injury Law. All I can say is that he is top notch. I am aware that his prior firm is considered one of the best in the state and the knowledge and care he takes with his clients shows he was under the tutelage of some exceptional lawyers. Mr. Helmick was set on reaching a goal for my family in our case and much exceeded the amount we were expecting. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a young determined attorney who is not afraid to go the extra mile for their clients. He doesnt take no for an answer and believe me it truely shows with the settlement we recieved. I cannot thank him enough for a job well done. Thank you again Kris Helmick and Pacific West Injury. 5 star recommendation!!!

Dave took my case to trial and did better than the settlement offers extended by the other side, by a large margin. He's willing to challenge the other side's lawyers (or the judge), yet knows how to control the room with a direct, comfortable presentation that is confidence-inspiring and familiar. I am deeply grateful that I had Dave representing me and recommend him to others.

They explained every step of the legal process in a way that was easy to understand, never once making me feel like just another case file. Their dedication to my case was evident in their meticulous attention to detail, strategic approach, and unwavering support.
What stood out the most was their commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for me. They fought tirelessly, ensuring that I received not just compensation, but also the peace of mind that my future was secure after such a traumatic event.
Moreover, their communication was exceptional. I was always kept in the loop, and any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly and thoroughly. Their compassionate approach made a stressful time feel much more manageable.

We couldn’t have asked for a better legal team than Eric A. Stovall and his staff. Eric helped us navigate a challenging adoption case with expertise, professionalism, and compassion. He kept us informed throughout the entire process, ensuring that we always understood our options and what to expect.

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.
