Juliana Guerriero

We hired Miss Guerriero in 2012 for my brothers Workers Comp case. My brother was struck by a car in 1977 while on the job. The insurance company has paid very little over the past 30 or so years. So I sought the help from a settlement adviser Mr Steve Chapman who explain that he wanted to give us an... attorney who was calm and didn't make a lot of noise. We met with Miss Guerriero in her office in Long Beach Ca. Her office was not cluttered but definitely was not clean. Soon after that meeting Miss Guerriero set up a conference with the insurance companies representative. After meeting with the insurance settlement person once in Miss Guerriero's office it seemed positive. We left with a good feeling, but Miss Guerriero inexperience and unwillingness to investigate my brothers case caught up with us 6 months later. She advised us to settle the case for next to nothing. After looking at the settlement offer I was shocked to see that this settlement was okay with Miss Guerriero. I asked several questions about the offer which Miss Guerriero was unable to answer, and when I demanded an answer the true Miss Guerriero came to light for me. Not only did Miss Guerriero not answer my questions she seemed confused that I was asking any questions. I felt Miss Guerriero was out for a quick decision in my brothers case and wasn't concerned about my brothers well being for the rest of his life. My brother has a Traumatic Brain Injury which left him totally and permanently disabled 100%. It is my duty as a loving sibling to make sure that he is okay, and I am not concerned about an attorney who is seeking to advance her career. I am only concerned about my brother. I would just say that if you are an attorney, and you truly want to do good spend more time in the library and less time tasting wine. In closing, please as a family member do your homework and look for an attorney who actually knows how the system works. Especially Worker Comp. The laws of workers compensation have changed so dramatically that the insurance industry with all there money really have a better grip than the worker. I understand that WC fraud is the worst, but if you met my brother (Which Miss Guerriero did) you can definitely see that this man is not a fraud. Our family has truly suffered to the point that no one else could possibly understand. Needless to say we ended up firing Miss Guerriero six months later and hired the best attorney I had ever met. Thank you.

My work compensation case started in 2013. I found Ms. Guerriero by googling WC lawyers. It is 2016 and I am very happy to have her as my lawyer. It has been three years since I have known Ms. Guerriero, and I can testify that she is a competent, passionate, professional, compassionate and a gorgeous... lawyer. Whenever I speak with Ms. Guerriero, I feel heard and understood; she paraphrase what I say and by the end of the day, I receive an email reviewing everything we discussed. Effective communication is essential when one is being represented and I think Ms. Guerriero is great at it. Depositions are very stressful and emotionally overwhelming. For my deposition, Ms. Guerriero was there when I arrived, we walked into the building together, and she explained to me what was going to happen in the deposition to soothe my stress. She also took the time to normalize the emotions that were going to arise while I would get deposed. Ms. Guerriero empathy helped her see when I was getting emotionally overwhelmed and advocated for me when I needed it someone to protect me. After the deposition, Ms. Guerriero walked me to my car. I felt safe and supported having my lawyer by my side when I was visiting the insurance company office to get deposed. I am the type of person that needs to stay inform on the status of my case periodically. Ms. Guerriero takes the time to speak to me regarding my legal, medical, and financial status. Ms. Guerriero informs me on what is happening with my case and guides me on what I need to do, to stay on top of my case; medically and financially. Additionally, she informed me on what her future legal steps will be. She has demonstrated understanding on what I go through, during my work compensation case and she does whatever is in her power, to make sure I receive the assistance I need, as soon as possible. For example, I am currently experiencing misunderstanding in regards to my financial assistance between the insurance company and EDD. Ms. Guerriero gathered needed documents from the adjusters to clear up the misunderstanding and delivered them to me within 24 hrs. Ms. Guerriero and her assistant make the WC process manageable and sane for me. I thank them so much for what they have done for me. As I have previously mentioned, I am only in my 3rd year of my case. I have heard that a WC case can take up to 20 years to settle. I do not know when or how my case will unfold but I find great comfort in knowing that Ms. Guerriero is representing me.

I want to extoll the virtues of this outstanding lawyer, Miss Juliana Guerriero. I was recommended to the law offices of Cantrel and Green where I had an introductory appointment with Juliana and subsequently hired her for my workers comp. case. From the minute I met her to our dealings together fo...r the past year and a half I have been taken back by the intelligence and competency of this exceptional lawyer. She was professional yet personable, knew her job to the fullest extent, was concerned for my overall well being as her client and has worked diligently on my behalf from day one. Her knowledge of the law is outstanding and has looked out for my best interests throughout the process of my lawsuit. Her staff is competent and wonderful, and her ability to recite the law and advise based on best practices is unsurpassed. I was kept abreast of all and any action in regards to my case and advised on the best course of action to suit my needs and the needs of my specific case. In addition she has been there whenever I had a question or clarification on any matter involving my case. I think the thing that impressed me the most was she has gone out of her way to represent my total well being and to make sure that my total health is cared for not just my specific case suit. I am so impressed with her and her staff that I would not only recommend her to other clients but go as far as to say you would be crazy to not have this amazing warrior on your side when headed into the quagmire of the legal system. Thank you to Juliana for being the best representative a client could have in what is a very difficult time. It awesome to have her fighting for you.

In December of 2000 I was I was injured on the job as a nurse and forced off the job that I loved. I was referred to the law offices where Ms Guerriero was and still is working. I originally was assigned a different attorney. I was referred to Ms Guerrero when mine decided to retire...I initially wa...s not thrilled with the idea of starting over with a new attorney at all,however it did not take long for me to know without a doubt I was with the perfect attorney for my needs. We did not meet face to face for quite some time but we spoke on the phone regularly and got know each other very well. Ms Guerriero walked with me through a lot of really hard times throughout the 13 years we spent together and was always there for me when I needed her most. During those years I lost family members and found it hard to stay focused on all the work comp tasks she asked of me but she was very compassionate and patient with all my ups and downs....and ALWAYS cared about me as a person. She is the best there is...without a doubt.

I suffered an injury to my thoracic spine in February 2015. At a spine specialists recommendation, I filed WC. The WC insurance company denied the claim. I went to a state doctor and he found my injury to be 'industrial' in nature. I filed WC again. Again the insurance company denied my claim. I real...ized i had no power with my lack of knowledge. Juliana Guerriero walked me through every step of the process. She took her time to answer all my questions and even explained things I didn't know I should know. I was very anxious and scared through the different stages of the case. She recognized that and went out of her way to calm my fears and show that there was someone on my side. The insurance company was bullying me and she turned the tide. I could tell the defense attorney was intimidated by her -- and I really liked that. She got my case settled and I couldn't be happier that I chose for Mrs Guerriero to represent me. 10/10.
