Very satisfied

Tigran Martinian and his associates represented me for my personal injury case couple of years ago. They were simply excellent! Mr. Martinian was the smartest and most responsible lawyer I have ever dealt with. He put his best efforts and time to resolve and settle my case to my best benefit. My cas...e got settled in an unbelievable short period of time. The whole team was very kind and professional and the most important they were extremely responsive. I would absolutely go back if I ever have any legal needs in the future.

Professional Firm

I was in a car accident with my commercial vehicle last year. I retained Martinian Law Firm to help me out with my case. My car was out of use for 3 weeks due to repairs and I was in a lot of pain. I was absolutely amazed at how quickly and smoothly this firm helped me to get out of my horrible situ...ation. Martinian and his staff helped me to recover every single penny of my loss of earnings within one and a half month. And within 7 months I got my bodily injury compensation. That accident was so much less stressful with their help that I thought it would be. I was too pleased with their service and professionalism. After that I referred couple of my friends and relatives to Mr. Martinian whoever needed some legal help without any hesitation.

Save yourself the trouble of working with these fools...

I hired this firm in 2012, and my case was settled about a year later. I did get a decent amount of money that covered my medical bills, however had an awful, awful experience. When I brought my case to Tigran and his associates, I received A-Class Service. However, shortly after signing everythin...g, this law firm became a living nightmare to deal with. Getting a hold of anyone in the office and information on my case was always a struggle. It would often take leaving multiple phone calls and voice mails, before I had to track down someone to speak with and help me get updated information on my case. With the exception of one paralegal, Carlos, the associates at this firm are horrendous to work with. Despite the fact that I had gotten into a car accident and had medical bills to pay, this firm didn't seem to care very much and treated me like I was an idiot. They NEVER went out of their way to assist me and pretty much kept me in the dark and did not provide much legal advice at all. On more than one occasion I was mocked, and even told that because I fit a certain physical description and image, I "would be fine and get my money." The lawyer I worked with often discredited my concerns because my injuries were not severe enough and I wasn't willing to get surgery or injections to "prove" how bad my injuries could've been. Overall, I think the professionalism within this firm is beyond poor. I would suggest you really search around and do your homework so you avoid working with or getting stuck with these skeezballs. They will cause more struggle, stress and aggravation than they are worth. Hope this helps save some of your time!

One of the Best

I was in a car accident where my car was hit by another vehicle (That persons Fault) and flew off the mountain (Mullholand) where I almost lost my life. My family member recommended this firm and it has been the most comfortable and leisure experience I have ever encountered. They are the Ferrari ...of the Law world and I couldn't have asked for better, they treated me like family and helped me through my hardest times to heal and settle my case where I almost lost my life due to someone's little mistake. They are Elite
