Knowledgable expert

Attorney Lem Garcia has deep insight on how to properly handle personal injury claims. His advice regarding finding the proper medical provider and not speaking to any insurance adjuster regarding my injuries was very helpful. In addition, he understands that any injury claim must be handled approp...riately with the policy limits. Other attorneys may let the case get "out of control" and you make be left with endless bills to pay or very angry doctors at the end...

ABOVE AND BEYOND

I was run over by a car and made the mistake of talking to the culprits insurance and leaving recorded statements without representation. The attorneys I consulted with prior to Lem either didn't want to take my case or pushed hard for a lawsuit. Lem was a last minute google search and thank God I fo...und him. He returned my calls and texts right away (usually within an hour) and even offered to commute to my house when I couldn't come to him. But what I most appreciated about Lem was his character and professionalism. With prior attorneys I spoke to, I often felt intimidated and pressured to make decisions they felt were right but I perhaps didn't feel completely comfortable with. It was a relief to meet Lem because he always explained things thoroughly and made sure I understood everything. He would make suggestions and help me weigh out the pros and cons but ultimately leave all the decisions to me. Lem's most impressive feat, however, was attaining the MAXIMUM SETTLEMENT POSSIBLE for my case. After other attorneys had told me a lawsuit was my only option he went ABOVE AND BEYOND and not only got me the max settlement without having to go to court but proceeded to call the representatives of every. single. outstanding account I had related to my accident and negotiated a lower cost for EVERYTHING. I am 100% confident I received the maximum compensation possible with Lem. My accident was the most traumatic and stressful situation I've ever been through but Lem helped lesson the burden tremendously. He is an excellent attorney and a great person to have on your team!

Good Guy

Easy to contact, listens to what your saying, doesn't rush you. Makes sure he gets all the details, and explains thouroughly. Easy to contact, can see him right away, never a long wait. This is our second time having to contact him for his services unfortunately, but we know we're in the good han...ds. If you ever get in an accident always get a lawyer! And always choose Lem!

Great experience!

I was involved in a car accident last year with my wife. We were at a stop light on our way to Costco for our monthly shopping and all of a sudden we were hit from behind. It was a very hard hit and terribly freightening. I went to Lem for his counsel and from day one he took care of my wife and ...I. He made sure we received the treatment we needed, he constantly checked up on us, and explained to us what was going on with the insurance company every step of the way. From getting our car fixed to making sure our doctor visits were taken care of. Overall, the experience was great! I would recommend Lem and his team to my family, friends, and anyone I know. Thanks again Lem!

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
