Excellent elder abuse attorney

Mr. Cherepinskiy was excellent in every way. He was well-versed in his legal specialty, and I felt that the case was in good hands from the start. He was thorough and courteous, and responded to my inquiries right away. He fully explained what he was doing and kept me up to date on what to expect as ...his work progressed. He worked hard to make the best possible case and, notably, tracked down two hard-to-reach witnesses for their statements. He was helpful when unexpected things happened: When I came down with the flu and couldn't attend an important meeting in person, he arranged for me to attend by video. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking an elder abuse attorney.

Wrongful Death

Dmitriy represented me in a wrongful death case that rattled my world! I knew nothing about the CA laws surrounding these types of cases & by the time my case settled, I felt as if I could represent myself because of the compassion & knowledge that Dmitriy showed to me & my case. He worke...d countless hours because he is so invested in his clients. He made me feel like a person throughout this process & not a client. So many emotions surrounding a wrongful death case & Dmitriy was always patient, communicative & willing to listen, even when he knew my conversations were emotionally driven. He fought for me & he will fight for you because he won't take on a case that he doesn't believe in!

Without a doubt one of L.A’s best Attorneys

Dimitriy was referred to me involving a wrongful death law suit. This was a difficult time in my life due to the loss of my mom. After speaking with him he drove from Los Angeles and met with me near my home in Orange County . I hired him right away because of his compassion for the law and for me... and my family. From day one he was always in constant commmunucation with me and I knew he was working very hard and putting in countless hours . This case settled much faster then I anticipated and with excellent results He is a man of his word and great integrity. I will always recommend him to friends , coworkers or anyone who may ask. To all who read this review you will not go wrong when you hire this attorney. Thank you so much Dimitriy for all that you have done .

One of the best lawyers in LA

My father passed away due to medical malpractice and I needed a good lawyer to help me with the case. I found Dmitriy on this site and based my decision to contact him due to the reviews.... I am so glad I did. He is very professional, knowledgeable, sharp and always on top of it. Additionally, I got... a sense that he was a very kind and caring person who truly goes above and beyond to help his clients... something that is not common to find based on my experience with other lawyers. My case got settled for the amount that I wanted and everything went smooth. I would definitely recommend him to anyone without a doubt!! I really think he should be nominated best lawyer in Los Angeles :)

This Lawyer Gets Results

Dmitriy Cherepinkiy took on a very difficult personal injury case for me against two fraudulent medical practitioners who had caused me great personal trauma. Both of these individuals used every trick in the book to avoid reaching a settlement, and everyone told me my case was hopeless. But Dmitri...y was persistent, patient, and very skilled, and managed to get me a fair settlement against great odds! I strongly recommend him for his knowledge, professionalism and expertise.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Dmitriy was opposing counsel against me on a medical malpractice case and was as professional as they come, especially for representing health care providers that I was suing. I have every expectation and belief that Dmitriy will make a great plaintiff's lawyer now that he has decided to make the best decision of his life and leave the dark side."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Cherepinskiy put up a tireless defense in a recent case I had with him. Since I was the opposing attorney, it wasn't convenient for me or my client (it's easier when everybody just agrees with me) but he met and exceeded the call of duty for his client."
