Javier Ruiz

Pros:- he is direct -At times answered our questions pertaining to options not directly pertaining to the case but related Cons:- difficult personality to work with, too abrasive and rude at times. He actually discouraged our doctor from testifying by pushing him too hard. We had to convince the do...ctor to change his mind. -poor communication and follow up. It took weeks at times to get a response. Many questions were left unanswered until much later and many times it was too late. -Poor coordination with staff. Assistants had difficulty answering questions and submitting things on time. Fast turnover on staff. Staff changed 3 times during the process and they were never on the same page as the attorney. -Laziness in a sense, failed to acquire expert witness and relied on us to do so. Disappointing since that is assumed to be a major part of his job. -Didn’t put in much effort with preparation which ultimately resulted in judge dismissing the case. Be cautious before you decide to hire. It’s nothing personal but we feel that many of the things he lacked are super important to the success of a case. I’ve worked with other lawyers in the past and had none of the issues I’ve stated above.

After my injury sustained while working in Iraq I was overcome by stress and grief of having to deal with my employers insurance carrier. At first the denied my claim and would not release funds for medical care or wage loss. At this point in time I was ready to throw in the towel and move on, regard...less of how debilitating my injury was. Then a friend referred me to Javier. Javier immediately gave me piece of mind as he assured me I have a valid claim, adequate documentation, and that he was going to get me a positive resolution. And that’s exactly what he did! I cannot say enough good things about Javier and his associates. They took care of everything and it was completely seamless from start to finish. Allowing me to focus on my recovery and next steps after my injury. A sincere thank you to Javier and all of his associates! I will be referring you to any and all of my injured coworkers.

I was injured while working for a government contractor in Iraq. After months of getting the run around from corporate HR and the insurance carrier, I knew I couldn't proceed with my claim any further on my own. Javier was highly recommended so I sent a message explaining the predicament I was in. ...Within 30 minutes, Javier personally responded with a phone call. He immediately took my case and put my mind at ease. Javier and the paralegals working on my case were outstanding from day one. If you ever need to file a DBA claim, I will be perfectly honest. You will be traveling down a very tough and rocky road. Your employer and their insurance company will fight you tooth and nail hoping you will give up. Rest assured, with Javier, you will never be alone. He will fight for you to the very end of your case and beyond. After my settlement was awarded, a medical professional who was treating me for my injury, became greedy and tried to squeeze money out of me for services which were never provided. In spite of having more than fulfilled his obligations on my case, Javier jumped right back in on my side and put a quick end it. That speaks volumes as to who Javier Ruiz is. To sum it all up, if you ever have a DBA claim, do not try to go it alone. Contact Javier immediately.

Javier and his team were amazing going through the process of my DBA claim. They were there through every step of the process, and never hesitated to reply to email or calls on time, and was always available for information or updates. I reffered a couple of co-workers over for the same process, an...d he took care of them with no problem. His team stood by me until settlement of the case, and still answers after the settlement. I would highly recommend Javier and his team for any thing you need!!!!
