Skip and his assistant are unprofessional and wasted my time. They didn’t remember facts of case or even the conversations around it. Set up multiple appointments which they cancelled last minute. Highly recommend seeking other counsel.

So far he's an excellent attorney. Spoke with him directly, he spent some time gathering. Info on my initial call himself. Scheduled in person consult within a week during that phone call. Left me with some research to complete to further my position.
So far he is right to the point, gets things done; a roll up your sleeves and plow through it kinda lawyer. I like it and hope it stays this "full steam ahead".

I retained and hired the Redd Law firm to represent me in a matter that took place in central California on a farm property. She was aggressive in her prosecution and guile with her strategy and execution. The Defense tried endless tactics however they were caught on more than one occasion by Ms Redd and eventually the court found in our favor in a Fraud lawsuit against a couple of local farmers who thought they were above the law. If you need a tenacious attorney who is not afraid of a knife fight, Ms Redd is your attorney. Smart, aggressive and able. I recommend.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional legal support provided by Matt Mesnik. From the moment I walked into his office, I was met with patience, professionalism, insight, and compassion. Matt's personable demeanor immediately put me at ease during what was undoubtedly one of the most difficult periods of my life.
What truly sets Matt apart is his ability to see through the noise and get to the heart of the matter. He doesn't shy away from being assertive when necessary, yet he approaches every situation with a level of calmness and compassion that is truly admirable. His dedication to his clients is unwavering; he goes above and beyond to ensure that every avenue is explored to achieve the best possible outcome.
Matt is not just a lawyer; he is a friend and advocate. He takes the time to listen attentively, understand the nuances of each case, and tailor his approach accordingly. His commitment to winning for his clients is palpable, and his determination is contagious.
Having Matt in my corner during this challenging time has been an invaluable asset. I can wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a family law attorney who is not only skilled and competent but also genuinely cares about his clients.

I learned how to do the Moore Marsden calculation from the Mensnik website and I eventually hired them to reevaluate it to present it to court. They did a very professional detailed job at a reasonable price.

Mark Marion provided an above and beyond free consultation on my case by obtaining court documents pertaining to my case as part of his initial, free consultation. Mark took specific interest in my case analyzing all the facts, crafting a defense based in the penal code, and communicating with me weekly about my case during this stressful time in my life. On the hearing date I felt confident in our defense and the judge denied a permanent WVRO restraining order filed by Pacific Polo Water Polo Club. If you need a good attorney call Mark!

I recommend White and Amundson to the fullest degree for my wonderful experience with their counsel and staff. Despite challenging opposing party, Dan White maintained his composure and always negotiated in good faith. Dan White was ethical in the ways that he interacted with the plaintiff and in how he was honest with me. Even though I was involved in a frivolous lawsuit, it felt comforting to have Dan White's commanding and impressive personage. Mr. White showed great judgement in his negotiations with the plaintiff as well as myself. In the end, my needs were honored and my voice was heard, with much of the thanks being Creditable to Dan White. I would recommend his services, highly.

I was blessed to have Dan White represent me in a legal matter that was highly complicated and extremely emotional for me. From our very first consultation I immediately felt a sense of ease and peace knowing that Dan was handling my case. Dan’s knowledge of the legal complexities and significant experience made me feel a complete sense of security through the entire process. His communication, expertise and ability to not only look out for my best interests in regards to the legal aspects of the case, but to also provide his wisdom and perspective in order to help me get through it personally, was priceless for me. I cannot imagine going through this lawsuit with any other representation.
Dan’s high level of integrity was also exemplified in his communication with opposing counsel. He always remained assertive without being aggressive, and I always knew that he would do everything possible to ensure the best outcome for me.
I am forever grateful to Mr. White and his team and wouldn’t recommend anyone else!

Dan represented my firm in a complicated and volatile potential malpractice matter. His clear guidance, acumen and ethics early on at a very critical moment forged the path towards an extremely favorable outcome. Dan also did an outstanding job of helping to maintain perspective by imparting his wisdom gained from a long/successful legal career. I will continue to consult with Dan and will unequivocally recommend him to my clients and colleagues.

I will start by saying I did not retain Mr. Armstrong as my Attorney but I still want to leave a review for all of the help Elizabeth has provided me.

She is extremely knowledgeable and even answered my calls and messages on a Saturday and Sunday which was difficult with any other firm.

The attorneys at Boyd Law did a fantastic job for me. I had an emergent case that required a response to be filed with the court within one business day. Staff at Boyd Law agreed to hear the facts of my case as I knew them to be, quoted me a reasonable fee for services (to which I agreed), and immediately addressed the necessary matters of my case. While my matter had significant material already available for the staff, Joshua Fabian did a masterful job arguing for me in person before a difficult judge. Joshua presented the facts clearly, addressed wrongs with the court, and preserved the integrity of the judge and opposing self-representing counsel in honorable discourse. He attained a very favorable decision from the court for me and represented me in a way that is honorable to me, himself, and the whole firm at Boyd Law. Joshua's quick thinking, patient persistence while in the presence of the court was impressive to watch. I believe his respect for the rule of law and others allows him to be aggressive in just the right areas to argue facts and not get sidelined by lesser matters. Consummate professional.

Boyd Law came through for us by assigning Joshua L. Fabian to our case. Joshua is a UCCJEA Virtuoso with a fantastic personality and the ability to get through to a difficult judge.
We had a tri-state jurisdictional custody nightmare on our hands that involved original orders from in California from 2020, an open 2024 custody case in Father's state (home state), with Mother being another state entirely.
When the California judge made what we felt was an erroneous emergency temporary order that caused substantial upheaval in the lives of our children, we reached out to multiple firms and attorneys who all wanted to put us off for weeks on top of charging us for a consultation fee. However, when I called Boyd Law, I reached Brandon (sp?) who patiently listened to our dilemma and put us through to the right team which included Matthew Caldwell, Joshua L. Fabian, and Ashley Hoffman, although Joshua was our Go-To A-Team guy.
Not only did we not get charged a consultation fee, Joshua hit this case with great enthusiasm, ultimately coming through for us in exceptional fashion.
His knowledge of UCCJEA is second to none. His pleasant and positive disposition immediately put us at ease. His commitment to meeting tight timelines was stellar. More importantly, his courtroom presentation was EPIC!
If you have a case involving UCCJEA issues, Joshua is your man! He is not going to lie to you, he is not going to deceive you, he is not going to fill your head with nonsense. You'll get the truth and you'll get a lawyer who actually cares about your case. We know we were not his only case, but he sure made it feel like we were.
I still think that he has some kind of Vibranium armor hiding under that suit or something, because he totally earned Super Hero Status.
Money well spent.

Mr. Reyzin represented us in a real estate matter. We were absolutely frustrated with our situation and did not know what to do. Mr. Reyzin was very knowledgeable and was able to explain to us what the issues were and how he could help us. When all of our efforts to resolve the situation informally failed, Mr. Reyzin was quick to file a lawsuit. He continued to aggressively prosecute our case until the other side finally agreed to our proposed resolution.
While the process was long and, at times frustrating, we are very happy with the results. We are very thankful to our attorney and his staff for all the hard work they did working on our case.

I have known Mr. Reyzin for many years and have consulted him in regard to a number of different issues. I am always impressed with Mr. Reyzin’s level of knowledge and responsiveness. I also had to retain Mr. Reyzin’s services to respond to frivolous claims filed against me. Mr. Reyzin was very firm and assertive with the other side that resulted in dismissal of all the claims. I recommend Mr. Reyzin to anyone who need help with their legal issues.

Our business was sued. We consulted a number of attorneys who demanded huge upfront fees without much explanation what awaited us. Some even told us that the only way out will be through bk. One of the business associates referred us to Mr. Reyzin as someone who helped him before. Mr. Reyzin was direct and forthcoming about the process and potential outcomes. There was no pressure, no scare tactics just a very informative consultation. After some deliberation we hired Reyzin Law Firm, and now that it is all over, we are certainly glad we did. It was a right decision both for us as individuals and for our business.

One of the most challenging events in my like!

Several surgeries and it impacted my mental wellbeing.
Thank you Mark for your consistent calmness and assurance
It was valuable in my time of need!!

King Aminpour is hands down the best car accident attorney I have ever dealt with. I have been in three car accidents in my life and have had to hire an attorney each time.
Because of dealing with bad attorneys in the past, I thoroughly researched which attorney I would hire this time around. I looked online for recommendations and testimonials. I was very impressed with the feedback I saw on how other people had dealt with him.
Let me tell you, I never felt uneasy. I was always communicated with. His staff was extra nice and accommodating. I am super thankful for finding King and I would recommend him to anyone I knew that got into an accident. In fact, I have.
King Aminpour is trustworthy, kind and compassionate, and extremely knowledgeable. If you want great results, go see the King.

This was my first time with a car accident case and I was fortunate to choose Ashkan King Aminpour to represent me. Throughout the case, he has always been proactive, meticulous and detailed with the case. I must say it isn't an easy walk but it was simpler having experienced professional who care offer help and guidance. I would recommend anyone in need of reliable car accident legal representation.

First of all, I would like to thank my lawyer, Mariana L Hanna, who really put more effort and instructions into my immigration case.
I cannot recommend her services highly enough.from our initial consultation to the seccessful resolution of my case, mariana demonstrated exceptional expertise, dedication and compassion.After I came to the United States, I tried to find a lawyer to advocate for me so that my case would be successful. I met with many lawyers but finally I found the most suitable lawyer among all the lawyers that I met and she was Mariana, really she was hardworking, talented and exceptional expertise. And after a short time, she won my immigration case and I am sure that anyone who wants to find a lawyer today has an opportunity to met mariana and his/her dreams come true in the United States, and i am sure she will bring you good result and you will also be happy. She has represented thousand of clients with an impressive success rate. Please remember that constantly calling her office or cellphone can detract from her ability to focus on your case, instead email her with any updates to review and prepare your case more expeditiously.

I was uncomfortable from the first time I walked into the office. I felt like I was in the middle where they just grind out bankruptcies. I was not happy about filing a bankruptcy but it needed to be done. In the meantime things went from bad to worse my son died and I was in the hospital for a month. When I told them I really wanted to go with a different firm one of their employees told me that they would keep me in court to use all the money. I was talking about small claims court. She was almost yelling at me. I’m thinking about making a complaint with the state attorney board. But I warn you right now stay away from them. I am shortly going to be 74 years old. And the way she yelled at me it was almost elder abuse. I believe their shysters. And due to my failing health. I’ve been delayed and filing a small claims court. To my knowledge you cannot be represented by an attorney in small claims court. But apparently their employee thought differently. Beware

- 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.
