Amazing Attorney

I was in a very serious automobile/pedestrian accident. I was hurt quite badly and had no idea where to go for legal help. I was referred to the law firm of Movagar & Yamin. Nick was incredible from the very first meeting to the last. He communicated with me on everything, was concerned with w...hat was most important to me, was scrupulously honest and was sincere about helping me through this difficult time. I couldn't be more pleased with his professionalism and the results of the case. He was so effective and got me the maximum settlement. If ever I had a need for a personal injury attorney again, I would immediately go to Movagar & Yamin. I give them the highest of recommendations.

Simply the Best!!!

I couldn't ask for a better lawyer than Nick Movagar. During our first conversation, his main focus was getting me the proper medical treatment that I needed. I was already so frustrated with trying to deal with the insurance companies on my own, I didn't even want to peruse further treatment. Howeve...r, after listening to Nick, I saw a back specialist and learned my injury from the car accident was more serious than I thought and I then sought the treatment and therapy that I needed. Nick also took over all dealings with the insurance companies and kept me informed every step of the process. I couldn't believe I tried to deal with them on my own, because they tried to take advantage of my ignorance of the legal process. Nick went to bat for me and managed to negotiate a great settlement. He truly cares about his clients and I would give him the highest recommendation for anyone in a similar situation. Out of 10, I would rank Nick an 11! Thanks again!!!!!

Nick took on my car accident case 2 months before my SOL and got amazing results

I had worked with 3 personal injury attorneys before, and no one was as effective or diligent as Nick. I was referred to Mr. Movagar 2 months before my statute of limitations, and was constantly surprised at how responsive and knowledgeable he was. Nick made himself available and accessible at all ti...mes; he even gave his personal cell to contact him with any urgent questions regarding my case. He responded to my emails within the hour, answered all my calls and questions, and kept me informed on the status of my case via email (my preferred method of communication). He even responded during the weekend! I would also like to note that I was out of state the entire time, but Nick handled my case and the communication wonderfully to the point that I was never worried. He is a talented and effective communicator. He has the ability to translate all the legal jargon into layman's terms and the patience to go over any of the subject matter as many times as you ask. His priority is for you to be informed about your case, and for you to have the best results from your case. He will support your decisions on your case, even if it may require more work on his side. He doesn't deter you from having control over your case. Nick is also very respectful when addressing you and your concerns. My auto accident settlement was of a smaller nature, but Nick never prioritized me by the size of my case. Despite taking my case on at a very late time, Nick was able to do amazing damage control and got me a wonderful result/settlement really quickly. He really works for your best interest. For example, Nick did not assert a lien on the original settlement the insurance company offered me because he noticed that I was a struggling, young mother. He was legally entitled to that portion, yet he gave that up to help me and my daughter out. Instead, he brilliantly negotiated a higher settlement. He has been kind enough to advise me on other legal matters surrounding this auto accident case as well. Nick is reliable, trustworthy, ethical, and well-versed in legal matters. He is a phenomenal attorney and an incredible person. I would recommend him to everyone. I feel very blessed to have worked with him.

Great accessible lawyer

Let me take a minute to praise outstanding service and professionalism. I was referred to Nick Movagar and decided to meet with him on a casual Friday. From the moment I met Nick he inspired confidence in me with a personal concern for my well being and a very positive and gung-ho attitude towards ...my personal injury case. He listened to all my questions, answering and addressing all my concerns then immediately seeked medical attention for my injuries. A few weeks Later when I expressed that a chiropractor was not working for my injury, he switched my treatment to an excellent physical therapist. As my injury did not get any better, he contacted an awesome doctor who performed an amazing arthroscopic shoulder surgery that I am still recovering from but I am thrilled with the results every day. Throughout my dealings with Nick, I found Nick to be very accessible in various ways. I tried not to call, I would email or text him and he would reply quickly and once he replied on a Sunday evening. In the end, I feel better physically from my shoulder - that's all that matters to me I would have never been able to get the surgery if it wasn't for his legal services and connections. But on top of that, I got an awesome settlement from both the guilty party's insurance and my personal underinsured motorist insurance. I am grateful that I took the time to meet with Nick Movagar and extremely happy with the results in choosing his firm as my legal representative. I hope this review is helpful to anybody who is searching for legal aid regarding a personal injury and I hope it also helps Movagar & Yamin grow their business. Keep up the outstanding work gentlemen! Again, thank you!

Great attorney.

Nick kept me abreast of the legal and medical aspect of the case and communicated with me until the case was settled. I highly recommend Nick for personal injury cases. We both kept an open line of communications and he was vested in my recover from the accident and being make whole again. I hope ...that I never have another accident, but I know who to call if one occurs. Great job, Nick!!! Thanks, for all your help.
