Review Caspar Jivalagian

Fought hard for my settlement!

Posted by

My personal injury claim was going nowhere in 2012-2015 until Caspar took over my file. My settlement was reached within 9 months, January 2016! Caspar is professional and knowledgeable in his field. Any questions I had within the process, he was always there to answer my questions. I have since then referred a friend to him and he is very happy with his results thus far. Thank you for all you have done for me Caspar!

Caspar Jivalagian's response: Thank you I believe professionalism is extremely important and I make a diligent effort to treat my clients and peers with respect and professionalism.

Fights hard for my Rights!

Posted by

Caspar is litigating a workers comp claim for me. He has not only successfully been able to get treatments I need for my injury, but he has helped me get the benefits I need. Caspar is such a great lawyer! I have referred all of my family and friends who have legal issues to his firm!
Caspar Jivalagian's response: Worker's Compensation is one area of the law that I truly enjoy practicing. I have had the privilege of working both on the Defense side and now the Applicant side. I will continue to aggressively pursue Workers Compensation claims on behalf of my clients!

Very knowledgable and persistent in LL/tenant case

Posted by

Mr. Jivalagian came recommended to me by another colleague for his expertise in LL/tenant issues. He demonstrated great knowledge in the issues surrounding investment property and evicting a tenant. Further, he made himself available to explain every step of the process and passionately followed up to a very satisfying result. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Jivalagian or ask for his services again in matters involving landlord/tenant issues.
Caspar Jivalagian's response: Hello Jennifer, I appreciate your kind words. Landlord tenant issues are common issues. It's important for both landlords and tenants to know their rights. It's our job to explain those rights. Staying informed can help costly litigation. I'm glad we were able to help.
