I had a great experience with this team; their communication is excellent. While the medical services they provide are surprisingly expensive, they are reliable. I came in with a severe back injury, and everything worked out perfectly over a span of about 20 months. I truly appreciate the efforts of Harris Lawyers and would recommend their services to others.

I had an exceptional experience with Harris Personal Injury. The attorneys fought tirelessly against a large commercial company and refused to settle for a lowball offer. They truly advocated for my rights and ensured I received the justice I deserved. The team promptly scheduled my medical appointments and handled every aspect with professionalism and care.
Above all, my attorney took the time to personally strategize each step of the case, which was exemplary. Given the circumstances, they secured the highest possible payout for me. I highly recommend Harris Personal Injury for anyone in need of a dedicated and tenacious legal team.

My wife and I were in a car accident and decided to take legal action against the person whose vehicle hit us. After consulting with a few lawyers in the area, we chose Kleczek Law and worked with David and Brendan. Our decision was based on our initial conversation, where it felt like David would fight for us and was willing to go to court if needed. Throughout the lawsuit, Brendan kept me updated as soon as he had any news, which was greatly appreciated. He was always reachable and would call back promptly if he wasn’t available. I never felt like I was chasing someone down for answers or that I was on my own. Overall, I was very satisfied with the results and deeply appreciate both David and Brendan for everything they did for us.

I can not say enough good things about this company. In today’s world I called 7 different company’s all with automated answering services for a call back of a 2-5 days out. I called and with end 5min I was on the phone with David Browne, David not only heard my frustrations with calling seven different companies as I mentioned to him. But he also offered me free legal advice and a colleague‘s phone number to better assist my situation. Being from out of state and not knowing all aspects of California law when it comes to employment David heard my question and gave me the best legal advice offhand of what he could offer at that time and not only that, he did recommend a partner and company that I most likely will reach out to upon his recommendation and retain during my departure of my current employment if it goes south. Thank you again David for taking my call today and really giving me peace of mind as I close this chapter with this company in my life and begin on a new one I will forever remember your company. FIVE STARS RIGHT HERE!!!

I worked with Devin and one of his fellow colleagues and I cannot say enough great things to say about him as a lawyer and person. His expertise and strategy made my settlement the success that it was. He was efficient, smart, good listener, kind, and an great lawyer. I hope I do not need legal help again but if I did, I would reach out to Devin Coyle without a doubt. I cannot say enough kind and great things about him. Thank you Devin!!!

I recently reached out to Attorney Ambrioso Sacramento after being involved in a car accident, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Within 24 hours of contacting his office, I had a consultation set up. During our meeting, Attorney Sacramento was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. He took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand, showing great patience throughout the process. I left our consultation feeling both informed and at ease. I highly recommend Attorney Sacramento for anyone seeking legal advice or representation.

I first want to express how grateful I am that Ed took my case. Ed was recommended by another firm that was unable to take my case. Since the beginning of our relationship he has been honest, direct, patient, clear and informative. He responded quickly to all my many questions and took the time to walk me through the process. I always felt respected and important. Although my case did not have high potential for a large settlement he never treated me like I was less important and he never gave up on fighting for me. I could not have done this without him. I am forever grateful and would recommend him without hesitation.

I have had many occasions to utilize legal services, both personally and professionally. Of the many atttorneys I have employed, Michael Padway stands out as having been both effective and supportive throughout the legal process. Even before I retained him, he freely offered helpful advice.
When the moment came, Michael stepped up and acieved results in my accident case double what I had been told I could reasonably expect from my case.
His advocacy combines hardnosed dilligence and creativity. In my case, his representation was both principled and effective, efficiently obtaining for me a desirable outcome. In a legal battle, you will want Michael on your side!

I was looking for a reputable attorney with good online reviews who specialized in Child Custody. I felt panicked and reached out to several promising attorneys but Robert was one of the few to respond promptly and after hours at that. He allowed me to send my questions in advance of our consultation and did his best to stay organized during our allotted time together, making sure my list of questions were addressed. Should we need further assistance, we would reach out to Robert!

I can't say enough about the representation and results I got with Mr. Wolff and I have been involved with four other lawyers in the past! My landlord had been doing all this illegal stuff and had just ignored me until Mr. Wolff took me in. I did not pay anything and the landlord ended up eating all the costs. Suing someone takes time and I had to be patient. Mr. Wolff kept me informed and he negotiated an excellent result. I am so grateful!

John Winer is an excellent attorney. He is hard working, dedicated to his clients and sensitive to the situations his clients are in. Mr. Winer draws from his past trial experience to build cases that obtain favorable results. He won't back down when it comes to fighting hard to get the settlement amount he expects. He has a name out there and I know why! I would refer any family members or friends to John Winer.

My case is not yet completed, and I wanted to write this before then...because for me, it is about more than a dollar amount. Working with John Winer has helped me realize what it is that happened to me; that brought me into his office. He has reminded me time and again that the injuries and batteries I endured were not my fault. I went to him at such a low and wounded point, and he met me there. Inch by painful inch he has brought me to a place of realization - that my attacker preyed on me, used me, and had the training and know-how to manipulate me. It was not my fault. Walking into John's office, I had lost the ability to trust anyone, least of all myself. A person I'd placed so much faith in, had completely destroyed me physically and verbally. John seemed to understand where I was, how I'd gotten there, and most importantly, how to put me back together and give me some power in making decisions about my case, and understanding how this horrible thing could have happened without my permission. There is much pain in growth sometimes. Its nice to have a person beside you who seems to really understand the feelings that go with these experiences. I have felt as safe as I am able with Mr. Winer handling my case. I'm very grateful to have found my way into his office, and to have had the honor of working with him.

"I retained John Winer of Winer, McKenna and Burritt LLP to help me with a dispute against the major corporation I was working for at the time. From the minute I met with John and decided to sign on with the firm I felt nothing but comfortable as the staff and attorneys handling my case kept in constant communication with me, always putting my mind at ease. I never felt neglected and know my case was given the attention it deserved. Devoting countless hours researching and working up my case to its maximum potential, John hired investigators and experts to support my claim- something not every firm does. The law offices of Winer, McKenna and Burritt, LLP were relentless up against the most experienced opposing council and persevered to the very end. John obtained a confidential settlement amount that I was more than pleased with. I would highly recommend him and the law offices of Winer, McKenna and Burritt for anyone with an employment claim within California. "

My experience with C.W. Goodroe (Christopher) was positive from the start. Being new to litigation of any kind, I had no idea what to expect of the process. Chris was informative and answered my many questions. He explained the entire process, what I should expect, and was clear on the timeline. Communication was excellent and he always returned my calls or emails promptly as well as calling or emailing when he said he would. I also appreciated that he explained all possibilities and let me decide what I wanted to do, even though I most commonly went with his advice. Chris is determined, confident, and not easily intimidated, so I felt very sure that my case was handled with the best outcome possible. I highly recommend his services.

About a year and a half ago I found myself in a malpractice situation, I didn't know where to go or what to do. I felt lost, Thankfully I found David Kleczek. First I called to make an appointment, which was quick and easy. Upon meeting him, I immediately felt at ease. Throughout the process he has always went above and beyond and helped me with everything and anything I needed. Although suing somebody, and the things that come along with it such as depositions, court, and going through all your personal information can be a bit uncomfortable and overwhelming. David has always went out of his way to make me feel comfortable and stress free. I felt educated and informed the entire process. I would use and recommend him over and over again!

David listened to my situation and created a strategy to get me compensated. At first it looked like I had no case until he started asking the probing questions. My answers revealed information that he used to create the case. He engaged another Attorney to assist him in my case. Together with David's leadership they filed the case and the outcome was POSITIVE! He was always 100% professional. I felt as though he cared about me more than anything else. I'm proud to say he represented me and to this day I consider him to be a friend. David is a great person!

Ed Casey was referred to us when we desperately needed the help of an experienced personal injury lawyer. He's been a lifesaver for us more than once. First, he helped my husband when he suffered a severe head injury after a heavy metal ladder fell on him at work. Ed ensured that my husband got full compensation for his injuries, including payment for his medical expenses, wage loss, and the severe pain and suffering he endured. Ed Casey fought the insurance company hard and obtained a great settlement. Ed helped us again (and a few of my husband's co-workers) when he was able to negotiate a substantial settlement against my husband’s employer for a racially hostile and unfair workplace.
I can't thank Ed enough for his expert counsel and his friendship. I highly recommend Mr. Casey to anyone looking for help with a personal injury matter. Ed is kind, responsive and, best of all, gets results!

I met Ed Casey during the darkest time of my life. A neighbor libeled me on Facebook. Being that this was my first time I ever needed a personal injury attorney, Ed guided me through the ugliness. He helped me understand the civil litigation process and took the time to explain what I could expect during the lawsuit. Ed had a clear and accurate vision on how the case would unfold. He was on point every step of the way. He always kept me informed and was a great communicator. He represented me with honesty and professionalism throughout the entire litigation. Ed also showed a great deal of empathy and compassion for what my family and I had been subjected to. He understood the pain and emotional distress that had been inflicted upon me and how this person’s false statements had caused me significant damages and had injured my reputation. Ed brought light into that dark time in my life. He believed in me and fought for me and for that I will forever be grateful!
I would recommend Ed Casey in a heartbeat.

I got to know Ed many years ago in a case when I was representing the defendant and Ed was representing the Plaintiff. Ed aggressively and intelligently represented his client, and was always very professional. This speaks so well of Ed and, in the end, his professionalism and knowledge of the law gets the best results for his clients. I have referred clients and close friends to him for legal representation, when I could not because of a conflict. I would unhesitatingly hire Ed to represent me if I needed a lawyer. He is smart, hard working and someone who I would trust.

Approximately two years ago I was rear-ended in an auto accident. I had never been in this type situation hence, inexperienced on what to do...At a family function a family member mentioned Mr. Ochoa and highly recommended him. Subsequently, I engaged Mr. Ochoa to represent me with my claim. Over a span of the past two years, Mr. Ochoa was diligent, detailed, persistent and "spot on" in bringing our case to resolution. Mr. Ochoa was always professional - he is tenured, experienced and highly skilled in this area. Mr. Ochoa requested very accurate information of me personal and financial ( I did not like this as I did not think it pertintent) yet it was important in dealing with insurance entities. Mr. Ochoa, sent letters and supporting documentation to said insurance company reflecting validity to my claim. All in all, Mr. Ochoa was successful in bringing our case to closure with an award. Without Mr. Ocha's expertise I would not have been able to settle with such an award.
Thank you, Ed

Mr. Pointer is the real deal. He is the best rising attorney on the West Coast. He has all the talent and skills that makes him a legend in the making.

Atty Joseph Jung was most efficient and effective in resolving my collision case. His most favorable attributes are that you actually hear from him even after working hours (5pm) . He cares and listens. This is most evident when you have unanswered questions or concerns. Least favorable: When a settlement is made would it be possible to receive direct deposit so as not to have funds lost through the mail (did not happen in my experience).

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.
