3 million Dollar Settlement Reached in Personal Injury Lawsuit for TBI

I'm positive that we had the best possible outcome for my TBI (traumatic brain injury) case because of the outstanding talent of Jassim and Associates. Pajman guided my family and I through a highly stressful 3 years from the day after my injury up until it finally came to a settlement during med...iation. Mr. Jassim made sure I received the best possible care and he was genuinely concerned about my health and wellbeing. He strategically help me build my short and long term plan of care that included the best doctors, psychiatrists, therapists, etc. This all played a part in not only helping me get better, but he was also strategically building an unstoppable team of expert witnesses. Another huge victory for our case was when Mr. Jassim was able to devise a way to move our case from federal court to state court, giving us more favorable odds from a unanimous to a majority vote. Jassim and Associates loaded up their bases when they brought in outstanding trial lawyer Nicholas Rowley to join our case. Mr. Jassim decided to do this knowing he would decrease his commissions, but acted on what was best for myself and my family. Several months before we went to trial, Jassim and Rowley negotiated a $3,000,000 settlement during mediation. One of the biggest settlements in California history against this huge corporation. Pajman and Associates are incredible people to work with. So much passion, integrity, and detail come from the the associates and supportive staff. I highly recommend anyone needing representation or consultation for a personal injury to contact them right now.

Most helpful attorney

Mr. Jassim helped build a case for me after I got injured in a 4 car freeway collision. Amongst the few attorneys I had already spoken to he was the most sincere and caring that truly took the time to hear me out. From the get go, he was super responsive with all my emails and spent generous time on ...helping my case grow stronger by referring me to the right medical professionals and helping me understand the process. Per my request he even took the time and accompanied me to one of my followup doctor visits. I am greatly thankful for having won the case in such a short amount of time. The case won in less than a year, not to mention that the win was much more than I could have ever imagined. Mr. Jassim's work ethics is extremely fair and overall I am beyond content with the great services he has provided me with. Long story short, he made a headache of a task turn into a smooth and lucrative experience. Thank you.

Dental Malpractice Case

I found and hired Pajman Jassim through AVVO for representation in a dental malpractice suit against the United States. He, his associate attorney Nathan Batterman and all the Staff at Jassim & Associates took care of me from start to finish. Prior to Pajman taking my case, other attorneys did not wa...nt to take the case. Despite this, Jassim & Associates took the case, and fought every step of the way for my rights. Jassim & Associates found the best experts and oral surgeons to examine my injury, and testify on our behalf. Pajman researched all the details about my injury, and the way it occurred. Although the defendant’s doctors/experts testified that my injuries were unavoidable, Pajman proved otherwise by citing to all the research and texts relating to tooth extractions. Above this, he and his firm cared about me, and wanted me to have some justice for the life-long injury that I suffered. Pajman took numerous depositions, and through this proved that the dentist that injured me committed malpractice. Ultimately the case settled at mediation, and I am very pleased with the result. Although my injury is permanent, this negative experience was transformed into something positive that my husband and I can build from. My Husband and I are more than pleased with Jassim and Associates. We want to thank everyone there for always being there for Myself and My Family. This has been the most difficult time of my life and I am honored to write this review to acknowledge such wonderful people. I would not hesitate to recommend Pajman and his firm to anyone who has suffered a personal injury, no matter who the defendant might be. In this case, we were certainly up against a Goliath of a defendant, specifically the United States Govt. That did not deter Pajman, and the results of my case prove it.

Greatful

Mr. Jassim represented me in a criminal felony expungment case. From day one he was nothing but honest with me about the possible outcomes. He was confident and eager to help me get my life back. He researched every code and clause pertaining to my case and kept me informed. All documents he prep...ared were sent to me for review and nothing was submitted without my approval. He kept in close contact with me over the few months as the case progressed. He made sure I had a good understanding of any advice given. He explained everything to me in a way that a “non-attorney” could understand. He prepared package to the courts that was very impressive. We did a ton of preparation for the hearing and were ready for whatever the DA or Judge might throw at us. I felt like he had every angle covered. He was ready for the challenge and was confident which really kept my nerves down. The great part about all this is that he never had to say one word in court. The DA put up a small fight and based on the thorough package he put together, the judge granted all requests without question. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I would recommend Pajman to anyone that wants a trustworthy, smart, hard working, reliable and prepared attorney.

Satisfied client, Jonathon

Mr. Jassim and his staff helped me with a personal injury matter. From the very beginning, I knew that I could trust their judgment and was in good hands. The other party's insurance company refused to offer a reasonable settlement , but Mr. Jassim and his office fought hard against the opposing ...party's insurance and attorneys. Ultimately, Mr. Jassim was able to obtain the maximum insurance policy by preparing the case and publishing for trial. Also Mr. Jassim obtained sanctions against the insurance company from the court! Mr. Jassim and his team were always available to answer any questions and they fully prepared me for the different facets of my case. During the entire process, they were very professional and I always felt like they truly cared about me.
