I never anticipated being in the position of needing an attorney, and was genuinely reluctant to even call one. But after hearing very good things about Sean Laird, I made a call to him about my case. From that day forward, I went from being in the unfortunate and quite desperate position of being harassed, stalked and blackmailed to having a fierce, competent, highly skilled advocate fighting for justice on my behalf. Sean's twelve years of previous experience as a well-respected, extremely successful District Attorney was evidenced in every aspect of the way he handled my case. He consistently returned my calls in a timely manner, assuaged my very real concerns about the possible negative outcomes that could occur, and in spite of the unusual aspects of the case, he instilled confidence in me that we had a solid case. The outcome was even better than I ever hoped for. The judge found for our side, and even more surprisingly, demanded that 100% of my substantial restitution costs be paid by the defendant. Without Sean's expertise, substantial skill set, confidence, unflappability, patience and dedication, there's no doubt in my mind the outcome would've been far different. I am still stunned at what started as a devastating experience turned into such an immensely victorious one where justice, and then some, was served.

I would like to take this opportunity to recommend Robert Nelsen as an attorney. To begin with, I wanted to thank him for his guidance, for his understanding, and interest in my case. He was very pleasant to work with, very professional, and always made himself available throughout the week. I had complete confidence and was most pleased with Mr. Nelsen and the firm of Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora!!
Sincerely, Dina

Written on 11/2015 I was so pleased with Mr Edlow's performance, he accepted a very difficult slip and fall (Public Entity) case. My case was pursued aggressively and was quick to realize that he was not only defending me as a client, but also defending my wife and 3 children that were affected as a direct result of my injuries. Every avenue of my case was carefully examined from a loss of consortium claim for my wife, to a negotiated discounted amount to be paid back to my medical insurance for past medical bills. This case was settled out of court and was very pleased with the final settlement amount low seven figures. Mr Edlow is a world class trial attorney with compassion and skills far past my expectations. I highly recommend him for any type of case that may be perceived as unwinnable. GREAT JOB THANKS JOSH!!!!!

George is an exceptional attorney who has demonstrated the highest level of professionalism, approachability, and friendliness in our interactions. When I found myself facing a legal situation that no other attorney was willing to take on due to its complexity, it became imperative to secure the services of the right legal expert. After consulting with numerous attorneys, it was George who stood out as the sole individual capable of providing the assistance I required.
George simplified the entire process for me, making it easy to navigate. During our consultation, he exhibited a commendable dedication to understanding the intricacies of my case, ensuring that we were aligned in our understanding and approach. His genuine care and consideration for his clients were evident throughout, offering me a much-needed sense of assurance during a challenging time.
While I ultimately decided to pursue a different course of action for my case, I am grateful that George was able to assist me during this critical phase. His pricing structure is notably affordable in comparison to other legal professionals, demonstrating his commitment to serving his community and clients over financial gain. This dedication to his clients is especially commendable in the current economic climate.
George may not fit the stereotype of a flashy or ostentatious attorney with grand offices, but he possesses the qualities that truly matter. He is a straightforward and results-driven professional who knows how to get the job done efficiently. In my experience, George has proven himself to be a true gem among attorneys in Sacramento, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services.
I extend my heartfelt appreciation to George for his assistance, and I am confident that should the need arise in the future, I can rely on him for steadfast representation.
Thank you for your invaluable support!!

Yes, I would certainly recommend Mr. Mercer for legal service; and I have. After my lender denied my loan modification, I was lost and in fear of losing my house. Mr. Mercer has successfully helped many borrowers as myself in a difficult hardship situation and so what better person to go to than someone that has proof.
For the average person who pays a monthly mortgage, losing a job can be very devastating. That is exactly what happened to me. Although I was fortunate to find another job, my new salary was less than my previous job, which made it very difficult for me to meet my mortgage payments. My financial hardship is one of the criteria’s to qualify for a loan modification so I applied with my lender. After a 3 month process of miss guided information, my loan modification was denied by my lender. Refusing to accept losing my home as an option, I decided to seek alternative options.
I came across many counsel services soliciting their guarantee to help but when I called, the people I spoke to were telemarketers with a serious sales pitch. This is when I spoke to my cousin who was successful in modifying his loan and referred me to a lawyer in Sacramento by the name of Eric Andrew Mercer. I called Mr. Mercer, scheduled to meet in person, and the rest was history. During our initial consultation, Mr. Mercer was very clear and concise with the task in hand and the next series of events that is about to unfold. Throughout the whole litigation process, all mortgage payments were seized and most importantly, the end result was everything we hoped for and more. Mr. Mercer successfully modified our loan with a staggering new APR rate of 2%; not only that, about 1/3rd of the total principal was reduced. My family and I are very pleased with Mr. Mercer for saving our home and we cannot thank him enough for his services.

Mark was the first attorney I had spoken to that understood my desire, not to take a plea bargain because I was innocent. The other attorney's tries to almost scare you into taking this plea. When I told mark i was innocent and could not lie in court he understood me. He worked in my behalf and he did a excellent job. He is busy but swift in his actions when the time counts he is there. I prayed for a good man, God sent him to me . His closing remarks was awesome. Thank You Mark.

My case was satisfactorily resolved thanks to Mr. Meade’s expertise in the legal profession and his comprehensive understanding of medicine. As it turns out for me it was not the resolution of my case that ended up being the most valuable part of my experience. It was Mr. Mead’s genuine concern for my family and how the process was affecting our well being. He found the medical experts that ultimately made my medical situation one that I could manage. In the end I walked away seeing Mr. Mead as an attorney I hold in the highest regard and someone I now see as a friend.

Most people, myself included, have a preconceived perception regarding attorneys. I first heard about Lesley through a family member. I researched her and it was clear her past work as an attorney speaks for itself. However what truly impressed me was when we first met. I quickly realized she is truly an advocate for victims of elder abuse, inside and out of the courtroom. Her passion for fighting elder abuse was never more evident to me than when I first visited her office and she explained the backstory of a painting hanging on the wall of her office -- a painting by one of her former clients that she received as a token of appreciation. Lesley is more than just an attorney, she's an advocate. Thank you for everything!

Ryan is a great guy and a wonderful attorney. I had a difficult personal injury automobile case to prove, but Ryan took it on and proved the defendant caused the accident. I had several injuries and Ryan even lowered his fee to make me whole again. I have referred several people to him and they all have had positive outcomes in their cases. I believe he really is an attorney that cares.

I recently had the pleasure of working with the law firm, and I must say, my experience was exceptional. If you're in need of an attorney, I highly recommend reaching out to this office, particularly Mr. Jason Smith.
From the moment I contacted them, the service was fast and efficient. They truly understand the urgency that often comes with legal matters. Mr. Smith was not only knowledgeable and professional but also incredibly approachable, making the entire process much easier than I anticipated.
The pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the high-quality service I received. I felt valued as a client and appreciated the transparency throughout the process.
Overall, I had a really, really, really good experience with this law firm. If you're looking for reliable legal assistance, don't hesitate to reach out to them!

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.
