Mr. Kashani is an excellent lawyer

I was referred to Mr. Kashani by a friend and so happy and pleased I had the opportunity to have him on my side. I was driving when another car made a left hand turn and crashed right into me. I got a sprained wrist and whiplash on my neck. I was extremely sore and tense because of the accident and M...r. Kashani sent me to the best chiropractor to help ease the pain from my very first visit to the doctor. He is very professional, efficient, genuinely cares about his clients and continuously updated me on the status of my case. I would highly recommend and refer him. Thank you for getting me all the help I needed, sending me to the amazing doctor and getting me a settlement way beyond what I ever imagined possible. This money paid off all my medical bills, gave me enough money to have for future visits to the doctor and plenty for just my pain and suffering. You have been an amazing lawyer and I am truly grateful for all your hard work. Thank you!

Thank you

I was referred to Payton by a friend to handle my PI case. Payton was understanding and kind. He assured my that my case would be handled promptly. However he took four or five days to return my calls which I found frustrating.

Hi Jessica, Thanks for taking the time to write a review. While we do our best to return phone calls as soon as possible, sometimes due to the rigors of business we miss a call here and there. Thanks to your review, I have discussed with my staff and we now have a policy to return phone calls within four hours. Thank you again.

I give Payton Kashani an A+ for Best Lawyer

This is my second time around with Mr. Kashani for my second car accident and guaranteed that I will come back if I have a third case. My second experience with Mr. Kashani was when I was involved in a hit and run car accident that was not my fault. I had a teenager driving his mothers rental car who... passed a red light, hit me, then drove off. Mr. Kashani did everything in his power to find this guy and HE DID. He sent me to a great physical therapist to help with my neck and shoulder pains and settled my case for an amazing shocking and great amount. He was great with responding to emails and texts and if he wasn't available he always made sure to have someone from his lovely staff contact me right away. Working with Mr. Payton Kashani has been an extremely pleasant experience. He is so smart and professional. Mr. Kashani you have truly been wonderful to me and I want you to know that you are very much appreciated!! Thank you again and god bless.

Thank you Mr. Kashani - truly the best

I will recommend Mr. Kashani to everyone! He was the best lawyer anyone could ever ask for. He is very effective, knowledgeable, friendly, responsive and caring and it clear he really loves what he does. He made me feel like I was not alone at a really bad time in my life. I was involved in a slip... and fall at a grocery store and hurt my back and elbow. I will forever be grateful for you Mr. Kashani for going above and beyond to make sure we win my case and getting me a settlement that I would have never expected. You are truly THE BEST!! Thank you so much!

Unprofessional

I have had a number of interactions with this lawyer last November during which he was unprofessional, unthorough, and did not get back to me for days on end. Furthermore, this attorney misled me to believe that my personal injury case would be handled with the utmost discretion, however he shared th...e personal details of my case publicly. I would advise anyone looking to hire a serious attorney to look elsewhere.

Hi Meredith, I am so sorry to hear about your experience however I must tell you that this matter was not handled by my office. In November I was working at a law firm as an associate and did not have contact with clients. Since have left the firm I have had no clients named Meredith. There a few attorney's with a similar last name so I can understand the confusion. I ensure you I hold myself to the highest ethical standards and make myself constantly available to my clients. Also, I promise we are not all bad! If you ever need any assistance please do not hesitate to call my office.

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.
