Highly Recommend

I'm an 80 year old fall victim who suffered a fractured hip and Ehsan did the absolute best for me. He was able to settle my case and not put through a trial which at my age would have been very emotionally strenuous for me. He was kind attentive compassionate and very skilled and highly professional.... I am truly grateful for all his help. And honestly feel that by his actions and representation he has mad my remaining years very secure. God bless him and again Attorney Eftikhari is the very best .

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have had the opportunity to work with Ehsan Eftekhari on a handful of matters and, quite frankly, it would be a crime for me not to take a few minutes to let fellow attorneys and prospective clients know what a class-act and added-value Ehsan is to the legal profession. Lawyers know what they know and learn what they must. Indeed, that is the least they should (hopefully) do. What sets Ehsan apart, however, is his humanity and ethical DNA. He is ever so cognizant of the human element in each case, often going above and beyond the call of duty to serve as the voice for the voiceless and those who feel intimated by large (and sometimes cruely unreasonable) insurance companies. It is a distinct pleasure to call Ehsan a colleague, because he gives lawyers, such as myself, a good name. I will continue to refer cases to and collaborate with Ehsan on cases, because I know (to quote Allstate, ironically): "They're in Good Hands." Here's to wishing that every lawyer was an Ehsan..."

He has cultivated a reputation of an attorney who is successful at prevailing at trials and arbitrations.

"I endorse Ehsan Eftekhari. He is a tireless worker on behalf of injured victims. The compassion he has for his clients is easy to see. His knowledge of the law is impressive, to say the least. While many people in the personal injury field know the law well, Ehsan is one of the very few who shares his knowledge of the law with his peers. His knowledge of technology is second to none. In fact, if I have a technology question, Ehsan is the first person I turn to. I don't think I am alone in that regard. In summation, you have this lawyer who truly cares about his clients, who is a tireless worker, who knows the law well and who is an ace with the latest technology - what else could an injury victim want in a lawyer? I highly recommend Ehsan Eftekhari."
