Sam was a lifesaver as my lawyer. Right from the start, he was super professional and really knew his stuff. What I really appreciated was how he didn't pretend to have all the answers. If he was unsure, he'd reach out to other lawyers to get the best advice, which was awesome.
He was great at explaining all the legal jargon and made sure I understood what was going on. Plus, he was always a step ahead in the game, which paid off big time.
Most importantly, Sam was always there to keep me in the loop. It felt more like having a friend in the legal world who genuinely cared about my case. Honestly, if you're in a tough spot and need legal help, Sam's your guy. He's not just a great lawyer but a great person to have on your side.

In September 2023, my brother (25, from Arizona) got arrested (in San Francisco, California) after attempting to enter a conference within a community both of us grew up in and have been apart of since 2008. His car keys were knocked out of his suit pants during a tackle incident at the security clearance after he had trouble leaving when asked. According to my brother there was a misunderstanding of an email conflicting with him not being invited to the conference. After being tackled and handcuffed, he told the officers he had a concealed firearm in his vehicle, 5 minutes away, as he felt it was a danger for his keys to be off of his person. I was at this conference, and saw some of this happen live. My peers in our place of work were laughing, and making memes about this for months. There are many videos and pictures of the whole ordeal.
They put 6 charges on him that night, including "possession of armor piercing ammunition" and "high capacity magazines"
The SF media created a narrative off of the charges and the prosecution ran with it moving to deny bail within the first week, just as my family was even beginning to cope with this new reality. Public consensus of the incident caused a rift in the community between those who knew him for years prior and know he would never do what was being inferred by the media, and those who didn't know him and were led to believe it. Our family used this as fuel to ensure we stuck with this case mentally and financially, no matter how hard it felt and how much of an uphill battle it was at times.
We went through two public defenders, and another private attorney before landing on Nechay Law in late March 2024. Nechay tried many angles of defense for this non violent gun storage charge. All previous charges except "having a concealed firearm in a vehicle" were wiped, and the remaining was moved to a misdemeanor which a change of plea got him out of jail after 1 year, 4 days.
The prosecution was going for conviction on the felony level to get him 6 years, based upon the narrative they shaped up. Nechay (even after 7 months of other attorneys handling the case) was able to reverse and put to rest the previously life ruining, retribution hungry narrative.
The best scenario out of all of this is he will be getting more familial attention and help to deal with previous traumas such as a car crash that totaled his very expensive car, two home break-ins, and his business faltering. Rebuilding for him will be a hard but rewarding journey, and Nechay has allowed that second chance of the sanctity of life to happen through her expertise. I cannot recommend enough. Our family is eternally grateful for Valery and her firm's service.

Adam was recommended to me through another lawyer and I'm so thankful that that happened. We corresponded via text before hoping on a phone call. I still can't believe how kind and empathetic and knowledgable he was. He's exactly the kind of person and lawyer that you want in your corner.

I can't recommend Valery Nechay enough as an attorney. Her knowledge in so many areas of the law is truly impressive. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was covered, and I always felt supported and informed throughout the whole legal process. Even with her busy schedule, Valery always found time to answer my questions, no matter how small. She made me feel like I was in the hands of someone who genuinely cares and knows her stuff. Valery is not just knowledgeable and dedicated, but also incredibly compassionate. I'm so grateful for everything she did for me.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Gene Halavanau for my personal injury case, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome. Gene is the epitome of professionalism and fairness.

What truly sets Gene apart is his commitment to going above and beyond. He didn’t just handle my case—he actively worked to ensure I received the best possible result. His dedication to my well-being and his meticulous attention to detail gave me peace of mind during what could have been an incredibly stressful time.
Gene's expertise and tireless work ethic delivered outstanding results for me, and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney.

I put myself through school twice. I came out of school with a master's degree in 2003, while also having a bachelor's from 1989. I graduated at the top of my class in both instances, but it put me into a lot of debt, and the entry offers I got (with TONS of experience) out of the master's program were pitiful for someone living in SF. So I had to hang out my own shingle and, being a small business, over the last many years it really took a toll with school debt and business debt. Bankruptcy is scary but John and Allan made it really easy, walked me through all the options, and have helped me navigate Chapter 13 beautifully. They are incredibly attentive and stay with you through the course of the duration of your bankruptcy. Great service!

I spoke to a social worker in regards to the stability of their home life when they aren't with me. Being concerned about my daughter, and the inconsistency of her lifestyle which concerned me quite a bit whenever she would take the kids or present a different new boyfriend/place to stay.. (for the most part I have raised them/they lived w/me) I began to get concerned about how they were being affected by her irresponsibility as a parent. Later to find out that they were not attending school, and my oldest grandson taking on the babysitter role and would get in trouble for his little brother in which he became a totally different kid (quite angry about his whole environmen) he was told to lie to me if I asked him questions. My grandson started to call me when his mom would sleep/ or wasn't home and he would tell me things. I convinced my daughter to let me take them to live with me during the week so I can enroll them back in school and fix the inconsistency again time passed and they were safe with me; She started telling me things when she didn't get her way, trying to manipulate saying she was taking the kids from me (*if I talked to her about lying, and being irresponsible etc...) I got to the point that I needed to help these kids before she really screwed them upore and swore to look; nyo things and if she ever got into trouble shoplifting etc... I would use it to my advantage. The social worker referred me to Legal services for children and I started to work on getting guardianship and soon enough she went to jail. They were great, they helped me so much with everything including emergency paperwrk for serving her in jail for restraining order etc .. they came to my home to talk to the kids and I. They made it smooth like butter explaining everything!!! So glad she recommended this place. Perfect for kids who eed help!!!

Stebner,Gertler,Guadagni and Kawamato were so incredibly kind and helpful with my and my mother's case.
Deena Zacharin was my defense attorney.
She was compassionate with my case but really tough when it mattered during the deposition. I felt supported and was well informed.
Karman M. Guadagni was diligent with all of the details and correspondence concerning the case as well as a pleasure to work with. .
Kathryn Stebner is a gifted lawyer who really cares about people and standing up for cases that matter.
It was an honor to have her represent my family and we are grateful to her and her staff.
Sincerely,
Robert D. Fordyce

Dealing with the death of a loved one is hard, dealing with an untimely death that necessitates litigation is beyond comprehension when you're grieving, but it's sometimes the choice you need to make.
Our family had no experience with lawsuits and that's daunting. Kathryn, Karman and their entire team gently guided us through every step of the process. Everything was explained in a thorough but easy to understand way, making us feel cared for and confident in their expertise. All decisions were ours to make; at no point did we feel pressured to do anything that made us uncomfortable.
We can't recommend Stebner, Gertler, Guadagni and Kawamoto highly enough, nor can we imagine where we would be if we had not been referred to them. In the end, their hard work led to what we felt was a just and fair settlement.

I highly recommend Jason Wolford!
I found myself in a difficult and frightening conflict with my landlord, and initially felt completely intimidated and overwhelmed by the situation. I talked to a number of attorneys, including several of the more well-known tenant's rights firms in the Bay Area, many of whom gave me the run-around, or agreed to handle some aspects of the case but not others.
I'm very grateful that I finally connected with Jason. He took on the entirety of the case, and developed an overall strategy to navigate the complexities of the situation. He handled the case with great skill and competence, and brought it to a very positive conclusion. He's a clear, strategic thinker, fair-minded, and not intimidated by the bullying tactics one encounters in these situations. And he really is just a good guy, and treats his clients very fairly and honorably.
If you find yourself in this kind of situation, look him up!

Sam Geller is truly a one of a kind lawyer. My gut feeling was to go with him out of the countless lawyers I had consulted with. He was very informative and eased me through fighting a case and was able to help me to reduce felony charges to misdeameanor after completion of probation even after considering the fact I had priors. He is very good with his practice as long as you listen to what he tells you to do. Would highly recommend and you are getting your money’s worth. Thanks again Mr. Geller!!!

Sam was a lifesaver as my lawyer. Right from the start, he was super professional and really knew his stuff. What I really appreciated was how he didn't pretend to have all the answers. If he was unsure, he'd reach out to other lawyers to get the best advice, which was awesome.
He was great at explaining all the legal jargon and made sure I understood what was going on. Plus, he was always a step ahead in the game, which paid off big time.
Most importantly, Sam was always there to keep me in the loop. It felt more like having a friend in the legal world who genuinely cared about my case. Honestly, if you're in a tough spot and need legal help, Sam's your guy. He's not just a great lawyer but a great person to have on your side.

So glad I found out about Leiva Law Firm. They helped me with my husbands' green card/immigration process. They are a professional team, and extremely thorough every step of the way. I never got to meet them in person, however they were very responsive via email. Happy to work with them again in the near future.

If you’re looking for an experienced, reasonably priced and extremely professional lawyer, look no further. Scarlett and her team are simply the best. Before choosing Leiva’s firm, I have spoken to several other immigration attorneys - I have a somewhat difficult case and wanted someone experienced and reliable. I had horrible experiences with other attorneys and felt pretty discouraged about my immigration case. That is when I found Leiva Law Firm. Scarlett was willing to work with us, despite the difficulties of the case. Her expertise and professionalism blew my mind so much that I decided that I wanted to hire her within our very first phone call.
My spouse and I were very confused about the whole immigration process (what documents to submit, how to fill out forms, etc), but at Leiva Law Firm, we were granted access to a very convenient and easy to follow portal on a separate website. We simply answered the questionnaire, submitted all documents and Betty (paralegal) took care of the rest. This was a game changer for us and made our lives much easier (I no longer had to stare at USCIS website and panic, yay). Also, every time we had questions about the process, Betty or someone on the team answered in a timely manner. My green card arrived in the mail within 5 months, no interview and no request for additional evidence from USCIS. My husband and I couldn’t be happier that we chose Scarlett and her team, and we seriously can’t recommend them enough.
Scarlett, Betty, Alex and Valeria: thank you so much! <3

I had worked with two other law firms prior to meeting Scarlett and her team. She was the only one who provided actual practical advice and was clearly experienced in how to address my wife's particular immigration situation. The other laws firms I had engaged with previously were too focused on theory and not on how the immigration process and law works in practice. I am so thankful for Scarlett, Betty, and the Leiva team as they were able to help my wife navigate the immigration and permanent resident card process in a manner that was extremely smooth and guided us through all the necessary steps to ensure it did not become a nightmarish process that I know others have experienced. Her team is extremely professional and clearly experienced in handling US immigration procedures and are experts on US immigration law. More importantly, she and her team were able to explain complex legal matters in way my wife and I could understand and was able to concisely summarize key points and concepts. I highly recommend Scarlett and the Leiva team and have already recommended them to other friends.

After being tackled and handcuffed, he told the officers he had a concealed firearm in his vehicle, 5 minutes away, as he felt it was a danger for his keys to be off of his person. I was at this conference, and saw some of this happen live. My peers in our place of work were laughing, and making memes about this for months. There are many videos and pictures of the whole ordeal.
They put 6 charges on him that night, including "possession of armor piercing ammunition" and "high capacity magazines"
The SF media created a narrative off of the charges and the prosecution ran with it moving to deny bail within the first week, just as my family was even beginning to cope with this new reality. Public consensus of the incident caused a rift in the community between those who knew him for years prior and know he would never do what was being inferred by the media, and those who didn't know him and were led to believe it. Our family used this as fuel to ensure we stuck with this case mentally and financially, no matter how hard it felt and how much of an uphill battle it was at times.
We went through two public defenders, and another private attorney before landing on Nechay Law in late March 2024. Nechay tried many angles of defense for this non violent gun storage charge. All previous charges except "having a concealed firearm in a vehicle" were wiped, and the remaining was moved to a misdemeanor which a change of plea got him out of jail after 1 year, 4 days.
The prosecution was going for conviction on the felony level to get him 6 years, based upon the narrative they shaped up. Nechay (even after 7 months of other attorneys handling the case) was able to reverse and put to rest the previously life ruining, retribution hungry narrative.
The best scenario out of all of this is he will be getting more familial attention and help to deal with previous traumas such as a car crash that totaled his very expensive car, two home break-ins, and his business faltering. Rebuilding for him will be a hard but rewarding journey, and Nechay has allowed that second chance of the sanctity of life to happen through her expertise. I cannot recommend enough. Our family is eternally grateful for Valery and her firm's service.

Adam was recommended to me through another lawyer and I'm so thankful that that happened. We corresponded via text before hoping on a phone call. I still can't believe how kind and empathetic and knowledgable he was. He's exactly the kind of person and lawyer that you want in your corner.

I can't recommend Valery Nechay enough as an attorney. Her knowledge in so many areas of the law is truly impressive. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was covered, and I always felt supported and informed throughout the whole legal process. Even with her busy schedule, Valery always found time to answer my questions, no matter how small. She made me feel like I was in the hands of someone who genuinely cares and knows her stuff. Valery is not just knowledgeable and dedicated, but also incredibly compassionate. I'm so grateful for everything she did for me.

I was completely taken aback when I was let go from my executive position. Despite years of stellar reviews and dedicating over 82 hours a week to expanding the business and introducing new revenue streams, all while advocating for equitable business practices, the severance package offered was inadequate. Vanessa supported me every step of the way. From the outset, she ensured my communications were precise when submitting information requests. Towards the conclusion of the process, she identified an oversight made by the opposing party, which led to additional severance being awarded. I am immensely grateful to have had Vanessa in my corner throughout this ordeal!

My lawyer Vanessa at the Dolan law firm made me feel almost like family. I was connected and engaged and felt comfortable she was representing me. She was so passionate and fought for me in my case. She explained everything even though I was scared and not knowing whatever to do in this situation. She made it clear and coached me every step of the way with reassurance that’s it’s gonna be chill it’s going to be ok. The Dolan law firm itself is an outstanding law firm if anything ever horrible happens and need help. These people are the ones you want to review and represent your case.

I highly recommend Vanessa and Dolan Law Firm. After being injured on my bike and hospitalized by a careless motorist, my expectations for any kind of justice or settlement were low because I did not have the motorist’s name or information. Despite not having high hopes, I filled out Dolan’s intake web portal with the details of my injury event. After some phone conversations, I met with Emile Davis at their Oakland office (this was prior to Vanessa joining their team) to discuss the accident, and Emile walked me through the different scenarios and outcomes I could expect, which was very helpful and informative for me as someone who had never taken any previous legal action. Vanessa connected with me soon after she joined the Dolan Law team, and she was professional and clear about how she was going to move my case along. After my medical treatments concluded, Vanessa worked to put together a strongly documented and effective case and kept me informed the whole time. Vanessa’s willingness and commitment to my case was reassuring for me, especially considering the fact that at that point some time had passed and we had still not yet managed to track down the motorist who had injured me, and my hopes for a just resolution were dwindling. I was later incredibly relieved when Vanessa and the Dolan Law team succeeded in finding the motorist’s identity and then brought the necessary documentation and paperwork to the company that the motorist had been driving for. I was later awarded a settlement amount that was significantly more than I had realistically expected. I have no experience with other law firms, but I can say in summary that Vanessa and the Dolan Law team were responsive, committed and transparent with me from beginning to end, and I got a much better outcome than I had anticipated.

Working with D. L. Rencher on a wrongful death case was an experience that truly exceeded all my expectations. At a time when my family and I were navigating one of the most heartbreaking and challenging periods of our lives, D. L. Rencher provided not only exceptional legal expertise but also unwavering support and compassion.
From our very first meeting, he approached my case with the sensitivity and respect it deserved. They took the time to understand the profound loss we were facing and assured us that they would do everything in their power to seek justice for our loved one. His deep empathy, coupled with a meticulous attention to detail, made it clear that we were in the hands of a true professional.
Throughout the entire process, D. L. Rencher was a pillar of strength and guidance. Everyone in his office was always available to answer my questions, offering clear and thorough explanations of complex legal matters. Their communication was prompt and consistent, ensuring that I never felt lost or overwhelmed during the proceedings.
What truly set D. L. Rencher apart was his relentless dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for my highly complex and contentious trial, and I can confidently say that his performance was nothing short of extraordinary. From negotiations and court appearances it was clear that I was working with an attorney of the highest caliber.
I cannot recommend D. L. Rencher highly enough. If you are seeking representation for a wrongful death case, you will find no one more capable, compassionate, and committed lawyer than D. L. Rencher. He is not just an exceptional lawyer, but a true ally in the pursuit of justice. My family and I are forever grateful for his extraordinary service.

I cannot thank Mr. Rencher for taking on my case with elder neglect for my mother after being abandoned mid- case by a different attorney. Time was of the essence, and I couldn't find anyone to help me for months but Rencher Law Group did and made me feel at ease instantly. Resolved my case and I didn't have to appear at all.
I give Mr. Rencher and team 10 stars and I would call them again if needed at the drop of a hat. Thank you so much!

I was a client of Svetlana. I highly recommend her as a very knowledgeable and highly professional lawyer. Svetlana is the best! She is very integrity, respectful, confident in her work, and a fantastic personality! Moreover, she is compassionate to you as the client and tries to do everything that she can. Most importantly, Svetlana has a big heart. I was fortunate that life brought me precisely to her. I feel very grateful and delighted with all she, as my lawyer, has done for me. If I could give Svetlana 10 stars or even more, I did it without any doubts!
Thank Svetlana and her team: Elena and Vitaliy.
YOU ARE THE BEST!!!

I'm a client of Svetlana Shirinova. She's very responsive and a real professional. Not only she has given really useful consultation with lots of advice but also hasn't charged a fortune for that. Not only she has helped us to avoid anything serious (believe me, I was frightened about potential consequences), but also provided extra information and spent extra effort which I was not even expecting. I'll definitely stay as her client and ask her first. This review is the smallest I can do to help her back.

Svetlana respects her clients, listens to them, and responds ASAP (day or night). She was amazingly helpful with many questions and situations that both my husband and I experienced. Svetlana responded right away, explained the circumstances thoroughly, and recommended the possible plan of action.
It was so invaluable to have her support, understand the situations from different viewpoints, and come up with the ideas on how to deal with the circumstances.
Svetlana is very knowledgeable and confident professional and a very pleasant person to work with. I highly recommend her for any questions or issues that may arise.

I spoke to a social worker in regards to the stability of their home life when they aren't with me. Being concerned about my daughter, and the inconsistency of her lifestyle which concerned me quite a bit whenever she would take the kids or present a different new boyfriend/place to stay.. (for the most part I have raised them/they lived w/me) I began to get concerned about how they were being affected by her irresponsibility as a parent. Later to find out that they were not attending school, and my oldest grandson taking on the babysitter role and would get in trouble for his little brother in which he became a totally different kid (quite angry about his whole environmen) he was told to lie to me if I asked him questions. My grandson started to call me when his mom would sleep/ or wasn't home and he would tell me things. I convinced my daughter to let me take them to live with me during the week so I can enroll them back in school and fix the inconsistency again time passed and they were safe with me; She started telling me things when she didn't get her way, trying to manipulate saying she was taking the kids from me (*if I talked to her about lying, and being irresponsible etc...) I got to the point that I needed to help these kids before she really screwed them upore and swore to look; nyo things and if she ever got into trouble shoplifting etc... I would use it to my advantage. The social worker referred me to Legal services for children and I started to work on getting guardianship and soon enough she went to jail. They were great, they helped me so much with everything including emergency paperwrk for serving her in jail for restraining order etc .. they came to my home to talk to the kids and I. They made it smooth like butter explaining everything!!! So glad she recommended this place. Perfect for kids who eed help!!!

Stebner,Gertler,Guadagni and Kawamato were so incredibly kind and helpful with my and my mother's case.
Deena Zacharin was my defense attorney.
She was compassionate with my case but really tough when it mattered during the deposition. I felt supported and was well informed.
Karman M. Guadagni was diligent with all of the details and correspondence concerning the case as well as a pleasure to work with. .
Kathryn Stebner is a gifted lawyer who really cares about people and standing up for cases that matter.
It was an honor to have her represent my family and we are grateful to her and her staff.
Sincerely,

Dealing with the death of a loved one is hard, dealing with an untimely death that necessitates litigation is beyond comprehension when you're grieving, but it's sometimes the choice you need to make.
Our family had no experience with lawsuits and that's daunting. Kathryn, Karman and their entire team gently guided us through every step of the process. Everything was explained in a thorough but easy to understand way, making us feel cared for and confident in their expertise. All decisions were ours to make; at no point did we feel pressured to do anything that made us uncomfortable.
We can't recommend Stebner, Gertler, Guadagni and Kawamoto highly enough, nor can we imagine where we would be if we had not been referred to them. In the end, their hard work led to what we felt was a just and fair settlement.

Sandra Ribera believes passionately that every child has the fundamental right to have a childhood where you don’t become a victim of a violent and heinous sexual assault. If you are an adult as I am now and were victimized you need to call Sandra Ribera. Sandra will be sensitive to your emotional state, willingness to listen and very attentive to detail. Sandra showed me great compassion, very strong knowledge of the law regarding my rights to find and seek justice and restitution. Sandra was able to do that pre litigation. Sandra is an amazing attorney. Sandra clearly and articulately explained the law and my rights, was always reassuring whenever we spoke and never made me doubt that she wasn’t fighting for me. With the expertise that Sandra has and that she exhibited in the pre litigation process is why she was successful. I would without a doubt highly recommend Sandra Ribera to any woman who has stayed silent for so many years out of fear and the shame you feel that she will fight for you and allow you to reclaim some of the dignity and self worth you’ve felt you lost so long ago.

Working with Sandra and her colleagues was by far the best experience I had regarding a legal matter! She helped me navigate a complex and very personal case. Which required a deep understanding of very intimate elements. Sandra showed great empathy, always treated me with dignity and respect. I felt that I could share any detail as she created a safe environment and empowered me immensely. I can't even find the proper words to describe Sandy's qualities as well as her colleagues.
Navigating the US legal system as a foreigner is anxiety inducing. Having the right attorney is vital! Sandra, on top of being super competent, has a great personality. I found myself most of the time not even thinking about my issue. My anxiety went completely away once I knew I was in very good hands!
Luckily, she was recommended to me and her firm was the first one I reached out to. I feel if I took the phone to dial random attorneys, I would have given up by the first call as I would have felt unsafe to share all the intimate details.
If you are looking for an attorney, just stop looking, you just found the best!
Thanks to Sandra, now I can finally create my charity dedicated to help many people. I am eternally grateful!

I was unfairly sued by Bank of America and hired Susan to fight back on the lawsuit. She really went to the mat for me, fighting Bank of America’s lawyers all the way. The outcome was that they finally conceded defeat after Susan was able to demand audio tapes from the bank of conversations with me. They fought it all the way, but finally gave in. They signed a dismissal “With Prejudice” (meaning they can never bring it up again) and filed it with the Superior Court. What a relief that was. Had she not been there, it could have threatened my home and future. I can recommend Susan wholeheartedly to anyone who wants a lawyer who will fight for you and win.

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.
