Excellent Personal Injury Attorney
Neyleen did a fantastic job representing our family in personal injury case for our young daughter. Neyleen was referred to us, and her communication right after the accident was crucial. She helped us understand next steps, what the process would be, and managed our expectations. She made sure that we provided her with everything that she needed to effectively represent us. She was proactive, and her communication was excellent along the way. We always understood where we were in the process. She was empathetic with us, and communicated with us in a very respectful and caring manner. We felt that Neyleen had our best interests in mind, was always realistic, and provided excellent counsel. Strongly recommended.

Amazing lawyer
I’ve been dealing with this case for 3 years and cannot say enough how grateful I was that Neyleen stepped in. She made me feel at peace when I was in one of The most stressful periods of my life her professionalism is top-notch and she is very determined at what she does. Neyleen explained everything very clearly and just made the experience as non-terrifying as possible. If you’re in need of any attorney cannot stress enough for better people than right here.

I would definitely recommend her for anyone that has a legal issues. Thank you Neyleen for fighting for us and getting us the settlement you did.

EXPERIENCED, COMPASSIONATE, AND TENACIOUS
I am in the legal field and I was referred to Neyleen through a colleague at a very painful time in my life. I had been physically and emotionally injured by a professional that I trusted. I was hesitant to come forward due to the nature of my case. Through every step of the way, Neyleen was professional, caring and persistent, even when I was experiencing anxiety and needed her emotional support. I was used to being an advocate for others and not the one seeking legal relief. Many attorneys are well educated and experienced like Neyleen, but what sets her apart is her passion for the law and advocating for her clients' best interests. She truly cared about what I endured and fiercely represented me while remaining professional, confident, articulate, and empathetic to my needs under contentious circumstances. I could not be happier with the outcome of my case and having Neyleen by my side all the way. I will always refer friends, family and clients to her going forward knowing that they will be well represented.

Our Rock Through The Entire Process
My gratitude for Beljajev Law Group can only begin to be expressed through words. Neyleen not only handled all the 'legal stuff' for our case but also was our rock through the entire process. When you need legal assistance, finding good advice, let alone good advice with a smile, feels impossible. A few takeaways from my experience: - The process takes forever. It's just a fact. I never once felt the need to check-in or make sure Neyleen was on track. Most of the time, she'd check in with me to provide an update before I'd even thought of asking for one. I could rest assured knowing she was always on top of things. - The process is overwhelming. I truly learned a life lesson from my time with Neyleen. Once she told me, "I try not to deal in hypotheticals." My brain was on overdrive and wanted to consider everything. Her kind but firm hand in dealing with me let me know that whatever may come, she could handle. - Insurance companies, even your own, are not your friends. A fact of life is that everyone is going to watch their own back before they watch yours. With Neyleen, I truly felt like I had a trusted partner up against giants and bulldogs of the industry. - Chiropractors are not attorneys. Basically, don't take advice from anyone who isn't your attorney, even if they are well-intentioned. Neyleen's depth of knowledge and experience is insurmountable to even that of those who deal with personal injury cases frequently but in a different capacity. - Find an attorney ready to go the distance. Some places are more than willing to make settlement demands on your behalf but will bow out if/when it becomes necessary to prepare for and go to trial. Don't be swindled by "settlement sweatshops." Not only will they not fight for you till the end, but it could potentially hurt your case. I wish I knew what I know now about legal battles but will never be 'prepared' for another. Fingers crossed I never have to be faced with one again. That said, I know exactly where I will turn should the occasion arise.

Hands down amazing!
Neyleen was and is incredible. I was injured and thought that it was bad luck and that would be the end of it. Neyleen fought and proved to me that regardless of accident there was more to it. The irresponsibility that caused me to get my injury should have been there in the first place. She was always around to answer any questions and kept me informed the whole time. Like I said hands down amazing!

Committed
My husband and I were in an accident coming home from work. We didn’t know what to do after coming home from the hospital and both of us injured. We were referred to Attorney Neyleen Beljajev by our family member. She was our lifesaver. She explained in detail what she can do for you. She was more of a comfort to us. She is kind and compassionate as we worked with her along the way. She is very committed to doing the best for you. We highly recommend her to anyone who has suffered through an accident or injury. Her expertise in the matter is very above board and highly respected.

Neyleen saved my life
When I was rear ended on the freeway on my way home from work, my life was turned upside down. The recovery process brought to my marriage and career some unexpected challenges. My naivete regarding this process and the thought of acquiring representation seemed so foreign, I originally felt I could just do this on my own. Neyleen's services were recommend to me from a family friend so I reluctantly reached out to her just to more or less get some advice. She clearly layed out the process in which I would soon experience and simply offered to help if I wished to proceed. Not only was she emotionally supportive during this process, she quite literally held my hand throughout my recovery and was there for me at every unexpected moment forward. I couldn't have done this by myself and I really dont want to imagine what my life would be like now if she wasnt there for my family and I. I'm in a much better place today and extremely grateful for her hard work and support. I often think about her and the key role she played in my life and would advise to anyone in a similar situation that you cannot do this alone. The recovery process is hard enough with family, work, and finances to deal with. Her professionalism and ability to relate emotionally are boundless. Thanks again Neyleen.

Excellent Experience
I was one of Beljajev Law Group's first clients and have been so happy with the attention to detail and customer care I've received. I appreciate how knowledgeable Neyleen is not only in personal injury, but all areas of the law. From business formations, to contract review, to personal injury. I will continue to use her services in the future.
