Outstanding!

My father had his will done and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! Very personable and knowledgeable. I highly recommend him!!!

Posted by Mohsen Saleh | October 01, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Car Accidents

Amazing Attorneys!

Pratheep from the Seva Law Firm handled an auto accident case for my brother, who was catastrophically injured. The case was extremely difficult and the insurance company did not want to pay anything. However, Pratheep got us lifetime medical and a great settlement. I strongly urge you to hire the... Seva Law Firm for your legal issues. Our case info can be found at Wayne County Case No. 14-002143-NF.

Smart, responsive, and friendly

Pratheep (or Seva as I know him) did a great job handling my daughter's car accident case after the insurance company stopped paying her bills. He was very knowledgeable and aggressive. Most importantly, he always returned our calls and emails. I would highly recommend Seva!

Quick Settlement for 3rd party claim

Mr. Seva was able to settle my 3rd party claim without a lawsuit for the full policy limits!!! I would recommend him to anyone!

Excellent Service

My doctor referred me to the Seva Law Firm after my insurance company stopped paying. Within a short time they were able to get my benefits back and I even got some extra money in my pocket!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
