Richard is a great lawyer. He handles cases with the utmost care and concern. He also returns telephone calls and responds to his own emails. He litigated my case against a large insurance company when they refused to pay me for my substantial loss. In the end, the insurance company lost all of its motions in court and the case was ultimately resolved in my favor. I thank Richard Rosenstein for all his hard work on my case and I recommend him without hesitation.

I was unexpectedly hit by a car from behind by a woman going 40 miles per hour and slid into two other SUV’s on I-5 resulting in a four car accident. My car being the only one to get totaled. I suffered horrendous neck and back problems within days of the accident and underwent three years of constant doctor’s appointments and pain. What was so upsetting was the fact that the insurance company hadn’t reviewed my file when it came time to offer me a resolution. I had new insurance adjusters assigned to my case constantly and they only cared about offering me the least amount of money possible. They didn’t care about my medical bills, pain or what I had been through. My car accident lawyer, Brian Ellis was very helpful throughout the process. I’m so thankful I had Brian Ellis and his wealth of knowledge and experience in dealing with my car insurance company. My insurance didn't want to pay for the coverage that I had paid to them for years just in case an accident would happen. Once the accident happened, it was upsetting to see how little my insurance company cared or wanted to help. I would highly recommend calling Brian to discuss your case if you’ve been in a car accident or suffered and injuries. I think it’s a big mistake to not have someone on your side and to try and handle a serisous matter yourself or with someone who may be unqualified. Brian Ellis is a qualified personal injury attorney in Temecula. It would be wise to call the firm to discuss your case if you’ve been hurt by the negligence of someone else. He listened to me, what happened and took my case on the contingency fee so I didn’t have to pay him anything until my case was resolved. Thank you Brian and The Ellis Helm firm for everything you’ve done.

Thank you Brian Ellis. You really helped me during a difficult time. I was in a car accident and got side swiped by another car. I was in the hospital for two weeks recovering from my injuries. My hospital bills were tremendous. Brian not only helped me sue the other car for hitting me, but he was able to get enough money for me to pay all my hospital bills as well as money for my pain and suffering. It didn't cost me anything to hire him. I would recommend calling Brian if you have been in a car accident.

I used Mr. Puritz in a case involving a young man rear ending me in Paradise. I had a previous back injury and surgery so the insurance claimed prior injuries.

Linda helped me win a settlement against a pedophile that molested my child. She handled everything with care, giving me a chance to choose the path, informing me of the best options. Her team handled everything with compassion, until it was time for the mediation. Linda was tough when she needed, had experience and knowledge in this field, referred my child to an expert that gave me a lot of input and greatly helped the chances of the case. I even walked away without signing a non disclosure agreement. I could not be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend Linda Ross, she was an angel in one of the most challenging moments of my life.

Paul Matiasic represented me in an accident case where I almost got ripped off by the insurance company. The case took a little longer, but Paul and his team (Justin White) never gave up on me. They called/email every week to make sure I was feeling okay and gave me the status of the case. I felt at ease dealing with them. They are very human and care about their clients more than the money. They are the type of lawyers you want to have on your side, the type you can trust!

If you find yourself in need of an excellent attorney, I highly recommend the law office of Matiasic & Johnson. This was a first for me and I will always remember the experience of working with Paul Matiasic and Scott Johnson in pursuing our wrongful death claim. I was turned down several times and then was referred to this firm. After presenting Paul and Scott with the facts as I saw them they took on my case. The two as well as their staff was professional and tentative it felt as if I was their only client. We started the case in 2015 and I was advised from day one how difficult it would be but I was kept informed along the way. Any time I had a question or needed clarification Paul or Scott was there. In 2017 a settlement was reached. I just can't say enough of how pleased I was to have been their client. I will recommend Paul Matiasic and Scott Johnson to anyone in need of legal service. You can be assured Matiasic & Johnson will work as hard for you too.

Mr. Matiasic was the only one who asked to meet with me personally to discuss the case and it was only with Mr. Matiasic asking questions and explaining to me the what we needed to prove, that I was able to give him the solid information (photos) that resulted in a successful settlement.

I reached out to a number of different attorneys before retaining Jeffrey Marquart. When explaining the details of my accident most were not interested due to nature of the case or never returned my calls. Not only did Jeff return my call, he spent about 35 to 40 minutes on the phone with me and answered every question I had asked. During the initial office consultation, he was not only extremely knowledgeable in product design defects but also extremely professional and friendly putting my wife and I completely at ease. I had never retained an attorney prior to this nor had I ever been involved with any type of other legal matter, so I was very unsure and apprehensive of what I should expect. Jeff was very clear in laying out our expectations related to the general procedure, time frame, possible outcome, etc... During the complete process, Jeff kept us informed with regular updates as each step progressed though the process and what we should expect next. I cant say anything but great things about the Jeff and his staff and would highly recommend him.

Dean took on my challenging personal injury case after four other 'highly rated' attorneys declined to represent me. He acknowledged that it would not be easy yet, he was willing to fight for me against the odds. He cared about me as a person, not merely as a client. I felt vindicated when his tireless efforts and ingenious presentation of our supporting evidence (ironically, the same 'evidence' the police reviewed and retained on file to support their own erroneous conclusions) ultimately convinced the heavyweight opposing counsel to relent and settle. I do not believe another attorney could have achieved the same result. Dean, as a cyclist himself, was passionate about my case--a recreational, fit, competent yet not competitive, cyclist seriously injured due to a careless motorist running me off the road on a bike path. I was compensated for my suffering and for being sidelined for eight months of my life, thanks to Dean!

Mr.Ananian was highly recommended to me by a couple of friends who both have used him as their representation in the past. Unfortunately, this was not my first accident. And unfortunately, Mr.Ananian wasn't my representation for my first accident. As a lawyer he has a few extremely rare characteristics I wish not only more lawyers would possess, but also just more everyday people. When you meet Mr. Ananian for the first time you can tell he's genuinely a good person! For about 8 years my job included interviewing and screening strangers to conclude whether they were "good" people - Trust me, when I tell you he's genuinely good and kind, he really is. With him, I never had the feeling that I was a money-making-machine, but rather that I was a person who had the misfortune of going through a horrible experience due to the accident. He is the only lawyer that took his time with me. Not only did he answer all of my questions into detail, every single time, but he was just as attentive to my husband. So many times I called his office, and to my surprise when he was at the office, he would take my calls. The fact that my lawyer would take my calls immediately or get back to me in a timely manner was just shocking... in a very pleasant way. That was a very new experience for me and certainly unique to Ananian Law Group. I know I won't receive this kind of care at any other law firm - Sadly so. Mr.Ananian monitors your case very closely. No matter at which stage my case was, he was always on top of it. He kept me updated on the progress of my case - something I had to run after in the past with other lawyers. Mr. Ananian and Ananian Law Group is extremely well organized and punctual, unfortunately both features are not that common in law firms. Lawyers I have dealt with in the past, with the exception of Mr.Ananian, have usually this flair of slight arrogance. I'm not sure if that's strategy, but I just prefer down-to-earth people. With that said, I don't appreciate it when businesses book appointments only to have you arrive and make you wait half an hour in the lobby. Punctuality is my pet peeve and that is just a disrespectful and unprofessional way of doing business. Thankfully, my experiences with Ananian Law Group and Mr.Ananian himself was always with utmost respect to my time. As you can tell, I really had a great experience with Ananian Law Group and Mr.Ananian himself. I do recommend him highly! You owe it to yourself to book a consultation with him, just so you can affirm my review. I really hope I won't ever need a Personal Injury lawyer, but it's safe to say not only would I hire him again, but I'd recommend him to all my family and friends, as well.

When other Lawyers were researched the deciding factor was that Scott Hanssler's persona was benevolent, yet professional. He is not only "in the know" regarding his profession, he is also a very understanding gentleman. Scott is welcoming and his entire office staff are very receiving whenever I had an "in office" visit/consultation. He is more than an Attorney--he is!

I was about to be foreclosed on and didn't have a clue who to use. Now someone mentioned another lawyer but when I went on line I saw all the same name so I didn't know which one they were talkig about. So I basically picked on. I was blessed that I ended up picking a good one. I only had about 5 days or even less before the sale date and when i got the call back, they gave me all my options, they were very honest and that let me know what decision i had to make. i decided to file the bankruptcy and they got the paperwork done and sent out and that stopped the sale. To work that fast and hard was a blessing. All of his associates are great. They email you back and call back right away. If you need a good lawyer call Soctt Hannsler's office.

I used the Hanssler Law Group for a Bankruptcy. Scott and his team are extremely knowledgeable, personable and very efficient. They were very effective in handling a complicated BK and giving me the confidence and insight to get through this stressful transition, preparing me all the way. I'd recommed him to my closest family and friends.

Ryan, actually helped my wife and i with a car accident. It was fairly basic case, but where can you go to an Atty and get honest, fast, reliable help? Only at the Mccabe law firm. If you want an atty that knows what he is talking about, an atty that is upfront and is not mainly interested in how much he will be make right off the bat than call Ryan. Most atty wont even answer your calls unless you have given them money and than more money before you even know if you have a chance or not.

Oliver and Sherwin did an amazing job with my case! I was hit by a truck while on my bicycle, I was even in a bike lane in Santa Monica. After the driver admitted guilt on the spot, he then turned around to his insurance company after and denied everything! I would have gotten $0 if it wasn't for these guys working around the clock for me. Citywide Law Group got me the max settlement from his insurance company and on top of that they even compensated me for my bike! Oliver and Sherwin were always accessible to answer my call/emails, very professional, and got the job done. I highly recommend this law firm if you are in need of anything dealing with personal injury!

I called Mr. Naimi after being very highly recommended after I was involved in a car accident. He was extremely helpful during the entire process all the way from helping me get my car repaired through getting the medical attention that was required. He was very involved and cared more about me as a person rather than a client which made a world of a difference. His office was always very responsive to all of my needs and also helped guide me through something that I had never been through before. I highly recommend him to anyone in search of a PI lawyer.

My husband and I are an over-the-road trucking team that owns and operates a one-truck business. In March 2019 we were involved in a highway collision in Oregon that resulted in our truck and trailer being totaled, and both of us being injured. We were out of work for over a year. We were not at fault but knew we had to find representation. Since the crash took place outside of our home state, we began calling lawyers in the Oregon area. We had no luck. We couldn’t find someone familiar with the trucking industry, and the firms we did reach out to either outright declined to represent us or recommended other firms. And the one attorney we initially started to work with, who we found through a trucking advocacy group, completely failed us. Ultimately, none of them worked out. Until we found Sandy Cipinko. We met with him in our home state of Arizona and after our first meeting, knew he was our guy. He had excellent listening skills, showed compassion for our situation, indulged all our questions, and even found someone in Oregon to partner with to represent us in that state. Sandy is honest, direct, compassionate, smart, experienced, hardworking, committed, and more. He walked us through every step of the legal process, directed us to read material that would help us understand what we were doing, and was always available for phone calls and emails. He met with us in our home and got to know us as a couple, to learn about our life, family, and friends, and what made us tick as people. He has such keen insight and an innate ability to hone in on our personalities, allowing him to tailor his communications and even his defense to us as individuals. We felt seen and heard with him. He is well-versed in the medical procedures my husband needed on his back and the imaging and physical therapy we both needed for our injuries. He obtained statements from doctors to use in our case. And he had experts like David Ball, the nation’s most influential trial consultant, and Karen Jo Koonan, a renowned litigation consultant who helped us prepare for our depositions, in his arsenal of weapons to fight and ultimately win cases. With Sandy involved in our case, we felt secure. We felt confident. And we felt taken care of. He helped procure an extremely generous settlement for us, just as he promised. He knows the law, the legal system, and people. He has the experience that one wishes for when one chooses an attorney. He is respected and has a well-deserved reputation. We can’t speak highly enough about Sandy Cipinko and all the people he collaborated with to help create a positive outcome from an unfortunate situation that upended our lives. He did everything we needed. If you find yourself in a position where you truly need someone in your corner, we recommend giving Sandy Cipinko a call.

In 2011, I was involve in a horrible car accident that changed my whole life. I was glad that Sanford Cipinko was able to represent me through this hardship. This accident had a profound impact on my life. I wanted to give up on everything but through talking with Sanford, he gave me the courage I needed to move on with my life. He was able to understand my situation and work with me as a team while we deal with my case. I appreciate Sandy for all that he has done for me. He is not the type of lawyer who only meets you as a client but trys to understand you as a person and will work with you through every single step of your case. He has a strong network that will help you through your case. To me, I feel like he is not just my lawyer but a close companion who guided me and help me understand the situation I was in. He is honest and helpful. Look for Sandy when you need strong/helpful lawyer. YOU won't regret it~! I thank GOD that i met you as my lawyer and met your staff. Thank you Sandy and Thank you for letting me call you Sandy : )

I would like to recommend Mr. Sanford Cipinko who represented me in a personal injury law suit concerning a significant claim involving a large established insurance company. Mr. Cipinko with the assistance of his well trained office staff handled the case with alacrity. All court and other legal filings where accomplished quickly and I was kept well informed as to the meaning and progress of the proceedings. As expected, the Insurance Company pulled every trick they could, including intimidation by suggesting that I lied and was carless enough that I purposely ran into the cross walk and thus was hit by their client’s oncoming car. Eventually the case was settled to my satisfaction with the helpful advice and counsel of Mr. Cipinko. Of upmost importance, Mr. Cipinko is honest and forthright. My experience with Mr. Cipinko has been excellent and I would highly recommend him as legal counsel for any personal injury litigations.

I had the pleasure of having Paul represent me after I was involved in an auto collision. He was thorough, interested, diligent and did not waste my time. His knowledge of the area, and his sensitivity to my family's needs were remarkable. The times I felt so overwhelmed, Paul stayed focused with his calm demeanor and got me through it. I received the maximum settlement available thanks to his diligence and patience in the process.

What a Wrongful Death Lawyer Can Do for You

A wrongful death lawyer specializes in representing families who have lost a loved one due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another person or entity. These lawyers help families seek compensation for the emotional and financial losses associated with the untimely death of a loved one, including medical bills, funeral expenses, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering. Wrongful death claims can arise from various situations, including car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and criminal actions.

If you have lost a family member due to someone else’s wrongful actions, a wrongful death lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and pursue justice on behalf of your loved one.

When Should I Hire a Wrongful Death Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a wrongful death lawyer if a loved one has died as a result of someone else’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional harm. Some common reasons to hire a wrongful death lawyer include:

  • Car accidents: If a loved one was killed in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident caused by another driver’s negligence (e.g., reckless driving, DUI, or distracted driving), a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim.
  • Medical malpractice: If a loved one died due to medical negligence, such as a misdiagnosis, surgical error, or medication mistake, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue compensation from the healthcare provider.
  • Workplace accidents: If your loved one died in a workplace accident or due to unsafe working conditions, you may be entitled to compensation from the employer or third parties responsible for the unsafe conditions.
  • Defective products: If a defective product caused your loved one’s death, a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim against the manufacturer or distributor of the product.
  • Criminal actions: If your loved one was the victim of a criminal act, such as homicide or assault, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue a civil claim for damages, even if a criminal case is also ongoing.
  • Nursing home negligence: If an elderly loved one died due to neglect or abuse in a nursing home, a lawyer can help you hold the facility accountable for their wrongful actions.

Hiring a wrongful death lawyer soon after the incident ensures that important evidence is preserved and that you can meet any legal deadlines for filing a claim.

What Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Do?

A wrongful death lawyer provides a wide range of services to help families navigate the legal complexities of a wrongful death claim and seek compensation for their losses. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Investigating the death: Conducting a thorough investigation of the circumstances leading to your loved one’s death, gathering evidence such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements.
  • Establishing liability: Identifying who is legally responsible for your loved one’s death, whether it’s an individual, company, or government entity, and building a case showing how their negligence or wrongful actions caused the death.
  • Calculating damages: Helping you determine the full extent of your financial and emotional losses, including funeral expenses, medical bills, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering.
  • Filing a wrongful death claim: Preparing and filing the necessary legal documents to initiate a wrongful death lawsuit within the statute of limitations in your state.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with the responsible party’s insurance company or legal team to negotiate a fair settlement for your losses.
  • Representing you in court: If a settlement cannot be reached, representing you in court by presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
  • Handling legal deadlines: Ensuring that all legal filings are completed within the deadlines set by your state’s statute of limitations for wrongful death cases.

How Are Wrongful Death Lawyers Paid?

Wrongful death lawyers typically work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Here’s how it generally works:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is usually a percentage of the total settlement or damages awarded, typically ranging from 25% to 40%. You won’t have to pay any upfront fees, and the lawyer only gets paid if they successfully recover compensation for you.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer does not win or settle your case, you generally won’t owe them any legal fees.
  • Case expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, you may also be responsible for reimbursing the lawyer for case-related expenses, such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs. These expenses are typically deducted from the settlement or award.

It’s essential to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to ensure you understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a wrongful death lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee structure, meaning you only pay if the lawyer recovers compensation for you. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fee percentage: Most wrongful death lawyers charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or court award. For example, if you receive a $500,000 settlement and the lawyer’s fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $165,000, and you would keep the remaining $335,000.
  • Case expenses: In addition to the lawyer’s fee, expenses such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs may be deducted from the settlement or award. These expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.

Make sure to ask your lawyer for a clear explanation of their fees and case-related expenses before proceeding with your wrongful death claim.

Top Questions to Ask a Wrongful Death Lawyer

Before hiring a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and resources to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with wrongful death cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has successfully handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s medical malpractice, car accidents, or workplace deaths.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify the lawyer’s contingency fee percentage and any additional costs, such as case expenses, that you may be responsible for.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges that could affect the outcome.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Wrongful death cases can take time to resolve, so ask how long the lawyer expects the process to last, from filing the claim to reaching a settlement or going to trial.
  5. Will you handle my case personally?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court.
  6. What types of damages can I recover?
    Ask the lawyer to explain the types of compensation you may be entitled to, such as medical bills, funeral expenses, loss of income, and emotional suffering.

How to Check the Credibility of a Wrongful Death Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable wrongful death lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for wrongful death experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in wrongful death cases and have successfully handled cases like yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on wrongful death cases.
  • Check for certifications or memberships: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) or local bar associations can indicate the lawyer’s dedication to wrongful death and personal injury law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Death certificate: Bring a copy of your loved one’s death certificate, as this is a key document in wrongful death cases.
  • Medical records: If applicable, bring your loved one’s medical records, autopsy reports, or any documentation of their medical care leading up to their death.
  • Accident or incident reports: If the wrongful death resulted from an accident, bring any police reports, accident reports, or workplace incident reports.
  • Financial records: Provide documentation of your loved one’s income, benefits, and financial contributions to the family to help calculate economic damages.
  • Correspondence: Bring any communication you’ve had with the responsible party, their insurance company, or legal representatives.
  • List of questions: Prepare a list of questions for the lawyer about the legal process, potential outcomes, and fees.
  • Timeline of events: Be ready to provide a clear timeline of the events leading up to and following your loved one’s death.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice.
