Best Firm in LA!

Dealing with insurance companies can be very stressful and frustrating. Even more so when you are badly injured, traumatized and trying to recover physically, emotionally and financially. This was my experience when my infant son and I were rear ended while fully stopped in traffic. The adjusters ...would not return my calls, often dismiss my concerns, discredit my pain levels (even though I had exams and notes from KAISER detailing my injuries), and even tried to place some of the blame on me for what their driver did. At that moment, I knew I would need an attorney to represent me. I contacted Jake’s firm and from the very fist phone call with Jake and his team, I was heard and cared for. Nancy, my case manager, helped me get refunded for the total loss of my car and with all her hard work, experience and research, the insurance paid me above market value, which was a very welcoming surprise! She also kept me in the loop every step of the way and fought so hard to get me compensated for the most traumatizing experience of my life. And once again, the final amount I received was way beyond my expectations. Melissa was also another integral part of the process, as she assisted me with my medical treatment, helping me find the right doctors to treat my injuries and even scheduling my appointments. I will be forever grateful to Jake, Nancy, Melissa and their entire team. When this process started, I had a torn ACL, a concussion and memory loss, and now I can put this traumatizing experience behind, with a healed body and a generous settlement. I cannot think of a team with more expertise, transparency, and compassion for their clients. Thank you so much for everything, Finkel Firm! You guys are truly THE BEST!

Amazing lawyer

Jake was an amazing lawyer and saving grace from the start. I contacted him after my accident from a referral by a friend. I was in a lot of physical pain as well as emotional distress. He immediately reassured me that he would help me with my case and kept his promise. Jake put me in the hands of th...e best doctors who genuinely knew what they were doing. His constant reassurance that my case would be resolved was a comfort to me during that stressful time. I highly recommend Jake to anyone looking for an experienced, professional, compassionate, and knowledgeable attorney.
