Wonderful lawyer

Mr. Yadegar is smart, attentive, accurate, and dedicated. He works hard on the questions and gives insightful answers. I am very impressed with Mr. Yadegar and plan to hire him after our consultation went so well.

Posted by Mary A. | February 11, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Employment & Labor

Execution is everything! The best of the best!!!

There was a time in my life where I thought by performing above and beyond could cost me my job, because all of a sudden the company I worked for would not honor FMLA let alone ADA. I tried on my own for many months and I was beyond exhausted, because I knew what my rights were. My employer also le...ft me in a limbo where I couldn't return to work but I couldn't collect county benefits because I still employed. Months of depression and anxiety turned into hope and happiness when Navid took the time out of his day to provide a consult. He told me he could help me and oh boy did he help. I gave Navid as much details as I could, all communications, doctors notes, anything I could think of for him to look at what I had and gone through, clearly discrimination was an issue. The employer couldn't get out of this one after Navid discovered how the employer behaved when it came to employees with disabilities. Although the employer we went after claimed I did everything wrong, in the end they didn't have a leg to stand on. Navid knew exactly what to do, and the way he executed made me very excited and happy to have hired his firm. I was kept in the loop of everything, his professionalism didn't go unnoticed, at the same time I learned a little more about Employment / Labor law. Navid and his firm are rockstars!! I'd definetley retain his firm should I go through a similar situation again.

Excellent Employment Attorney

I consulted with Mr. Yadegar regarding my situation with my employer when I returned from disability leave. He was highly knowledgeable and very supportive in helping me navigate this stressful situation and in explaining to me what my rights were. I would highly recommend him for anyone who has ex...perienced discrimination and potential loss of employment as a result of a disability leave.

Posted by Brenda | January 18, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

Fair & Knowledgeble

When I first made inquiries with other Los Angeles county law firms regarding my wrongful termination Mr. Yadegar was the only one who consistently provided professional, timely and pragmatic advice. Therefore, when the time was right for me to move forward, he was the only attorney with whom I ent...rusted with my case. My former employer’s counsel who is a partner at a prestigious Bay area law firm met his match in Mr. Yadegard’s agile skillfulness and superb negotiation prowess. Not only did Mr. Yadegar knew what the outcome would be (without any promises) but he made sure I would be compensated fairly, he was also exceedingly generous with his time to make sure I understand all the terms of the settlement agreement and make any changes per my request before signing it. I recommend Mr. Yadegar to any worker in need of affordable, top-notch, personable and fearless legal representation.

Posted by RJ | February 09, 2014 | Litigation

Excellent & Diligent

Mr. Yadegar was engaged in my case and kept me informed through out the process. He never failed to reply to an email and was thorough in his responses. He was methodical in his analysis and always had my best interest in mind. Never failing to contact me as to get my advise on the course we were t...aking. I felt a partner in the whole process of litigation. I believe him to an outstanding attorney who works to the best interest of his clients and never faltering.

"I previously worked with Navid Yadegar in a major Century City law firm and I can honestly say that I have encountered few lawyers who are as professional, client-driven, straightforward, and personable as Navid, and none more so. Navid was a fantastic colleague and mentor, was extremely knowledgeable about the law (or made sure that he educated himself on any area relevant to his cases), and was always someone who could be counted on when the stakes were high. I learned a lot from him and I would heartily endorse him to anyone seeking an experienced, energetic, and well-respected litigator."
