Over the last few years, I have had the opportunity to confer with Mr. Aumais on a few different legal matters and his advice and guidance was spot on.
I can attest to his honesty, integrity and the great passion he has for the work he does.
He truly cares for his clients' welfare and I would highly recommend him without hesitation.

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.

Matt Taylor and his associate Aaron Miller of Vaziri Law Group have been heaven sent as a referral from another couple of amazing lawyers, Joseph Shirazi and Simon, another incredible lawyer from the same office. They told me that Matt Taylor was THE Personal Injury Lawyer that they would use and recommend. Matt Taylor is brilliant in personal injury law and as an added bonus, specializes in property liability among so many other things. We were and are in such good hand. It is unbelievable and we are so lucky and so blessed to be able to have them and this firm to represent us. They prevented big lawyers from throwing us under to bus for a serious injury resulting in permanent damage to me. Law suits take a while, understand this. But have faith, you could NOT be better represented!! Just gather all the evidence and photos that you can and they will SO protect you from the wolves outside your door. Thank you forever. God bless. We would have been so messed up without you!!!

The offices of Siamak Vaziri are more than professional! They are effective and knowledgeable and very clear on the actions and outcomes that you would hope for you
My hats off to Mr. Vaziri, for creating and developing organization that make sure their clients be treated with respect. Not another opportunity to enhance their coffers.
Other law often uncomfortable .they were doing you a favor. Not so at Vaziri
I was completely surprised when Mr. Vaziri called to tell me the outcome of my case. It was much more than I expected! I've never experienced that before. He, was celebrating with me!.Usually law firms are happy to see you leave.
In particular, I want to praised Ruth Marin! I don't think I couldn't have survived with her!! You'll love her also. Although, im not certain or her position. I'm hoping she is the closest thing to being a case manager. I'm thinking, she should be a partner!
Mr. Vaziri and Ruth Marin, are extraordinary representatives legal firms. firms should. Sad others don't function in that manner!
P.S. this might seem excessively saccharine, but this is no BS job! And if I need legal assistance I'll call them again,
call them again!
Best

I couldn't be happier with my experience. I was referred to him after being unhappy with the attorney I had originally handling my case. So I transferred over to this firm and I am so grateful I did. Got twice as much money from the defendant as the original attorney was trying to convince me to settle for! These guys know what they are doing and they are good honest people.

Cheryl was referred to me by another attorney for dealing with some unemployment and medical board related issues I was facing. I contacted her while she was apparently on vacation, but she responded to me right away. I spoke to Cheryl over the phone and she was very patient in listening to the specifics of my case and and was thoughtful in her response. She correctly anticipated the actions that would be taken by my former employer and the hurdles I would face, and clearly walked me through the steps I needed to take to defend myself. Thanks to her, I was successful in my appeal and got the outcome I had hoped for. Cheryl is a very knowledgeable lawyer and a caring person, and I highly recommend her to anyone who can benefit from her expertise.

I consigned a vintage car in an action. It sold. The auction house delayed paying me the hammer price. When I enquired about the delay they told me the buyer was disputing the provenance of the car.
At that point I hired Cheryl Ruggerio to negotiate on my behalf.
She was very thorough and quick to understand all the documentation I presented her with and was able to research and fill in all the gaps providing the auction house with indisputable evidence of the cars long history.
She presented the new found information and documentation to the auction house and negotiated a settlement to the agreement of all concerned parties.
Cheryl Ruggierro was a great listener, patient and got right onto it.

I felt compelled to write this review! I want anyone in the state of California looking for an injury lawyer to be so BLESSED to have this firm stand behind them! I urge you to stop looking. You're going to waste your time anywhere else. Sure, everybody says that in reviews when they are happy with a company. I'm not just happy. I feel like I had my own family fighting for me and they wanted my suffering to stop. Most firms and lawyers are a bunch of hot air and lots of ego!! Let's face it. But when you have a lawyer go above and beyond to make you feel cared about and like you are family, then you want only the same for others. Mr. Sherwin Arzani was more than my lawyer, he was on my side and wasn't settling no matter what. I never felt rushed and I could tell he genuinely cared about me from his hard work, phone calls and keeping me completely informed of everything going on.
I was in a very severe accident. A man on his phone, driving towards a backed up off ramp, did not stop and was going 60+ mph blindly hit me from behind without breaks!! I was at a complete standstill. He did not care to help me and took off from the scene. I tried having friends and family talk to the insurance company and saw extremely quickly that I needed an attorney. They wouldn't give me information like what my benefits were. So I looked up Citywide Law and that was the start of my road to recovery.
From the day I called, I felt nothing but compassion and understanding from the entire office. I had to wait 2 days to call them as the whiplash locked my jaw shut!! They took the frustration and headache of dealing with the insurance company off my hands that day, right then and there. I knew without a shadow of a doubt they could be trusted to take this on for me. Their kindness, as well as, professionalism are OUTSTANDING!!
I had to immediately begin seeing doctors. They made all my appointments. I was thoroughly taken care of by their professionals. As I was not getting better with the treatments, I was sent out for further testing. We found I have lifelong permanent injuries. Mr. Arzani called me to discuss what to do and he was clear, thorough, and professional. From the news of my injuries I was very saddened that I will have this for the rest of my life. We were on the phone and he listened to me express my pain. Not just physical pain but the suffering that has come from this man stealing my life from me.....I can handle pain. I can handle suffering, but when you can't play with your kids anymore like you could before you feel a huge sense of loss and he was very supportive. Yes!!!! I said Mr. Arzani was supportive and there for me like a good friend would be.
I urge and implore you to give yourself the best odds at winning your settlement with this firm. I know you will not be unhappy with the results.....
Mr. Arzani fought and won my maximum benefits. If it wasn't for his persistence, I don't think my case would have settled in a year for what I deserved.
THANK YOU TO THE ENTIRE STAFF OF CITYWIDE LAW GROUP!
MAY YOU HAVE CONTINUAL BLESSINGS FOR YOU, YOUR FAMILIES, AND ALL WHO ARE AROUND YOU.

I was the victim of a real estate fraud, and Mr. Arzani's firm was able to reverse the fraudulent transaction and get my name back on title. The best part was that I even got some of my legal fees back from the other side when we settled the case.

Mr. Alberts is an excellent attorney.

I highly recommend this attorney if you want to win your case and have an attorney that cares and communicates with his clients. This attorney is a proven winner!

taking a moment to say what an awesome attorney Erik is although it's been a couple years since he did work for me. He's on my mind as I just referred a colleague to him for a personal injury matter. I have referred more people to him than I can count, in a variety of areas, but particularly personal injury and landlord tenant. the first thing I will say is that he genuinely seemed to care about my situation (a nightmare of a landlord tenant situation - me the tenant without much power). I felt like he wanted to get my problem solved and compensate me for my economic loss and stress along the way and that's exactly what he did. He completely understood my aversion to litigation, despite the fact that I am also a lawyer ha! He crafted a very persuasive demand letter and got me 100% of what I asked for. LL literally caved on every single thing. Most importantly, they immediately fixed the problem in my house which had been a nightmare, I won't disturb you with the details. All of this in a short period of time, no court hassle. Erik was kind, listened, and actually returned my phone calls. You will not find a better attorney!

I was in a traumatizing and debilitating traffic collision. I found Nicole and company through a friend of a friend. I had multiple injuries that were preventing me from living my life and maintaining my responsibilities. My injuries were more than intimidating, and my situation was extremely overwhelming and confusing. Nicole gave me peace of mind through effective communication and always making herself available when I would freak out about my situation. Her assertive and reassuring demeanor made me feel confident that everything was going to work out. I don't know how I would have survived this without Nicole and her associates. They made the entire process feel almost effortless, and by "process," I mean three years of medical appointments, physical therapy, surgery, more therapy, etc. Despite having to endure all of that, I had conviction that everything would be okay, even when I was on bed rest and could barely walk. I can't adequately express how positive my experience has been with Nicole and her associates.
We're almost done with the entire process, and I am very satisfied with the outcome. Nicole delivered! My injuries were treated by amazing physicians, and I'm anticipating a full recovery! All of my medical bills are paid, and I have more than enough to compensate for my expenses incurred because of the traffic collision. The best part of it all is Nicole didn't make me feel like a client or paycheck. She expressed genuine concern every step of the way and explained every possible avenue and their respective possible outcomes. She made me feel like a priority, and didn't push me to do anything. I am more than impressed with the exceptional quality of care I received through the entire process.
I hope I never have to experience a personal injury like this ever again, but I know exactly who I'm going to call if I do.

I feel very fortunate to have been recommended to Nicole Lari-Joni and her partner Torsten Bassell. When faced with personal tragedy and an overwhelming loss it is difficult to have the energy and know-how to navigate through legal action as well. My case had the additional challenge of working with estranged family members and their counsel. I wanted to make sure my voice was heard and my interests were upheld. Nicole put me at ease immediately. She is very personable and trustworthy and I knew she had my best interests at heart. Ms. Lari-Joni and Mr. Bassell provided the interface and worked well with the other counsel. They handled my case with professionalism and control as well as compassion. Ms. Lari-Joni has proven successes in these types of cases and added to that success by achieving the most optimal outcome for my case as well.

I was in an accident a few years back and got badly injured. Unfortunately, I made the silly decision of handling my claim with the insurance company myself at first. After the insurance company strung me along for months though, I decided to hire a lawyer and I asked a friend if he knew anybody good. He recommended Torsten and Nicole, who had helped my friend out in the past.
When I called Torsten and Nicole, I wasn't sure what I'd be getting into. I'd never had a lawyer before, but they talked to me about my case on the phone and then we met in person and I felt at ease. They never pushed me to do anything and were happy to meet with me to discuss my case whether I hired them or not. Of course, I ended up retaining them, and I couldn't be happier.
Nicole and Torsten worked so hard for me on my case and ended up filing a lawsuit and battling with the insurance company for about a year in court. Along the way, the insurance company kept tossing BS offers at us and I was getting really frustrated with the entire process. It seemed that the insurance company would never pay me what I deserved.
But Torsten and Nicole kept assuring me that the insurance company would come up with more money and that this was just the game they always played with people's lives. It turns out, they were right. After pushing and pushing through the lawsuit, the insurance company finally gave in and offered me a great settlement a few weeks before trial just as Torsten and Nicole predicted.
Obviously, I'm happy that I got the money I deserved. But I was even happier with who got me the money. Torsten and Nicole were not just my lawyers. They were my friends. They took the time to listen to me and understand my problems and they stood up for me until the end. There were ups and downs for me emotionally throughout the process, and if it weren't for them, I'd probably have broken down completely and taken one of the insurance company's BS offers. In the end, I know I got what I deserved because of Nicole and Torsten. They are wonderful people and made me feel confident that I had great attorneys in my corner.

When, through the culpable negligence of a large corporation, I was badly and lastingly injured, Mardirossian & Associates took on my case. I couldn't have been more fortunate. Armen Akaragian played a central role in securing a high-end settlement for me, and it is impossible for me to recommend him or the Mardirossian practice strongly enough. Armen's concern and solicitude for me and my cause were only matched by the dogged, intelligent ferocity with which he went after the guilty corporation, whose lawyers spent several years doing everything they could to evade a just outcome. Time and time again they deployed disingenuous dodges, delays, obstructions, and objections; time and again Armen and the Mardirossian crew reversed their machinations and exposed their mendacity. (At one point the defense attempted to move the case from a California court to a Federal one, because Federal courts tend to be less generous to claimants; Armen soundly trounced that tactic. Then the defense did their best to prevent us from deposing a key executive of the corporation; Armen fought back and secured the deposition -- and during that deposition, first methodically and brilliantly led the executive into damning untruths and then clearly exposed them for the damnable lies they were.) And through it all, in every phase of the process, Armen was kind, funny, warm, respectful, available, and absolutely solid. In sum: If Armen Akaragian is interested in your case, then count your blessings and jump at the chance.

Mr. Long did a jury trial for a family member of mine and was very well prepared and aggressive.

I don't think he does much criminal law anymore, but I wanted to say that my family and I would highly recommend Harrison "Gavin" Long as a lawyer, especially a case where the person needs a lawyer will really fight hard for them.

Ian is the attorney for the quintessential "little guy." An attorney truly for the people. I was initially reluctant about hiring a large law firm to represent me in my case. All of the negativity you hear about large firms—not being regularly updated, not hearing from your lawyer, being handed off to paralegals—was debunked after my experience with Ian. When I hired Ian, I expected to regularly hear from him, not his paralegals, and that is precisely what I got.
Ian is selfless. He fights for what is fair and just. He will protect you; especially when the defense team of lawyers tries to personally attack you. The defense attorneys did what they could to intimidate me so I would drop my case and it almost worked. They attacked my credibility, pried into my personal life, and accused me of lying, being a fake, and a fraud. Ian was relentless in heading off the defense attacks and sticking up for me. As part of a lawsuit I thought every part of my life was subject to examination by the defense lawyers. Not true. Ian pushed back and had the legal intellect to back it up. It was such a sight to see. A big corporate lawyer giving up ground to the “little guy's” attorney.
Think of Ian as the big brother you call when the bully steals your lunch at recess. This sums up Ian and what he stands for. In the face of adversity—here a giant corporation—he did not back down. He stayed the course and believed in me. Every time I spoke with Ian or met with him, I felt confident, secured, and most importantly, that he had my back. I cannot write enough great things about Ian and express how much I really appreciate him as a human being and as my attorney.

Ryan Casey expertly, and successfully, pursued two separate but related California personal injury matters for me beginning in early 2013. He traveled to meet with me in Northern California from his offices in Los Angeles whenever necessary, always scheduled appointments, depositions and examinations around my schedule (both my work schedule, and with respect to medical appointments and procedures), and never allowed opposing counsel to dictate terms, dates or conditions. It was an immeasurable comfort having such a compassionate advocate for my case and my physical condition, who was also so impressively adept a litigator and skilled with respect to depositions and negotiations with opposing counsel. I recommend him fully and without reservation for any California personal injury matter.

The results were much better than anticipated. I always knew what was going on and spoke with them personally--Much better than going to a larger firm.

I fell in a gas station and hurt my shoulder and elbow. I called a few attorneys and they said that the case was too difficult to win. A friend told me to call Steinberg Injury Lawyers because they did a good job for her after a car accident. So I called and they said they could help! And they did. Peter Steinberg settled my case quickly and I am happy with the settlement. He got all of my medical bills paid and I was reimbursed for my time off of work after the accident. I will (and do) recommend the firm to any of my friends who need an attorney.

We are delighted to have an opportunity to recommend Kate Harvey Lee. Kate did outstanding work on a challenging personal injury case. The first two attorneys we contacted turned us down. A third attorney we contacted recommended Kate. She prepared a demand letter that masterfully summarized the case, presenting evidence that required considerable time and effort to obtain. The document had a powerful effect on the plaintiff's insurer. After extensive negotiations, a settlement was arrived at that greatly exceeded my expectations. Throughout the entire process, Kate made it very clear what was going on, answered my questions promptly and in a way that was easy to understand. She outlined very clearly the pro's and con's of settling this case vs going to trial, not pushing for one option over the other but instead giving us the information that we needed to make the decision. This part of a case can be quite difficult as nobody can give definitive answers on what a judge or jury is likely to do. She excelled in explaining what the options were at each stage of this case. All in all we are very happy that we chose Kate Harvey Lee to represent us.

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:
-
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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.
