Amy Nadine Vela

I was a pedestrian hit by a driver who admitted he didn’t look behind prior to backing up. His insurance company blamed me because if I wasn’t behind the car, I wouldn’t have been hit. Amy navigated this stupidity and brought my case to settlement. She and her paralegal Carol Porter kept me info...rmed throughout and were easily accessible when I had questions. Amy Vela and her company will do right by you.

I worked with Amy Vela and her assistant Danger Milanes after a car accident in mid 2020. Both Amy and Danger were extremely knowledgeable and responsive (within 24 hours) to any questions I had. I appreciated that Amy provided me with different options for my case and allowed me to decide which rout...e I wanted to take. They worked around my schedule for phone appointments and handled everything on our behalf.The only thing we needed to focus on was healing. In the end, the settlement for both my son and I was more than I expected. I hope that I am never in a situation to need their services again, but if so, I would utilize their services or recommend any friends or family in need. Thank you Amy & Danger!

If you are looking for a personal injury - accident attorney I highly recommend Ms. Amy Vela. My vehicle was rear-ended in September 2018 and I contracted with an attorney our family had known since the 1990’s. This attorney has been in practice for 36 years. After 10 months of absolutely no ...progress being made on a simple claim for minimal medical expenses and diminished vehicle value we went to litigation and my file was turned over to Ms. Vela with the Friedl Richardson firm. The moment I met with Amy I knew that everything was going to work out fine. She thoroughly explained the process and the various situations that commonly occur, and what my options were. I was taken by her professionalism and genuine concern and I valued her desire to educate me on what to expect. I did some online research and learned that Amy attended Arizona State University’s Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law and graduated with Highest Pro Bono Distinction. Amy worked fast and efficiently. Her communication was, by far, superior to what I had previously experienced and in a matter of a few weeks I received a settlement for both the diminished value claim and the personal injury claim. She did exactly what she said she would do and the result was what she anticipated. I only wish I had known of Amy before my accident and my case would have likely been settled 9 months sooner. Ms Vela has been licensed for over 10 years and she successfully served my needs in a few weeks after I had wasted 10 months with a seasoned attorney who had 36 years of experience. Should I ever have the need for a personal injury - accident attorney in the future I would immediately contact Ms. Amy Vela.

Amy Vela did an excellent job representing me in a personal injury case. I appreciated her approachable manner which was helpful, honest, direct, and thorough. Communication with Amy was easy because I felt like I could talk with her as an equal. My questions were always answered and explained so tha...t I was aware of what was going on with my case. When I was stressed, Amy could talk me through the issues. I appreciated the calm, honest, direct, yet empathetic way in which she communicated; Amy is truly skilled in this area! Other areas of expertise were professionalism, preparedness, punctuality, attention to detail, trustworthiness, and the ability to represent me so that my needs were met. I was and am extremely satisfied and happy with the representation Amy Vela provided for me. I highly recommend her as an experienced, confident, successful attorney!

I suffered a broken arm and several cuts as a result of the driver of a parked car flinging her door open into a bicycle path. Ultimately flipping through the glass window, into the quarter panel, and then finally attacking the asphalt. Sadly, the asphalt won, albeit the BMW door did not fare as we...ll. I went to Phillips Law Group due to their prompt and professional response. I was assigned two separate attorney's over the approximate one-year timeframe, with the primary being Amy Olivas. While all of Phillips Law Group staff were very good to excellent with respect to timeliness, understanding, and overall professionalism; Amy was in particular. To the point, Amy always acted in a reasonable and professional manner, in addition to being available within a few business hours in all cases wherein I had questions which the paralegal could not address. In the end, I received an exceptionally high settlement, with netting almost twice what other law firms indicated would be likely. I must commend Phillips Law Group, my specific paralegal, and Amy Olivas in particular. Great attorney and the end result was just one notch short of spectacular. Go Amy !
