Mrs
My name is Janel. I worked for Vision Home Health Care as a health worker. I gave 100% of my effort, particularly during this pandemic. One day I was driving for the company. I met with an accident and was T-boned. I was in the commission of my work. My employer just looked the other way and did not help me. On top of it, they fired me. I got no help and ended up with a mountain of medical bills and a totaled car. I couldn't even find an attorney to take my case. I was referred to RP Law Group by my personal injury attorney, Mr. Preston. After he informed me that there was nothing he could do for me related to my workers' compensation claim. After doing my consultation with paralegal Betty Fuentes I was accepted to have my claim reviewed to be able to address my concerns with my previous employer. I received a phone call from Attorney Raj Patel sharing with me that my previous employer did not have any workers' compensation coverage and that I would need to pursue other avenues. But because of the kindness of his heart, he was willing to help me due to my predicament. After receiving that statement I was eternally grateful knowing that someone was going to fight for me. He gave me instructions to follow and I followed each of them. He did everything that he could in dealing with the deceitfulness of my employer. And he used his expertise and skills in being able to require my previous employer to respond to my workers' compensation claim even though they didn't have an insurer. After getting a response from the defense attorney of my previous employer he did everything he could to advocate that justice be served based on my predicament. I appreciate him making a decision to go out of his way to help me and have a settlement accepted that is what is deserved in spite of multiple rebuttals, refusals, and denials from the defense attorney.

Miss
I was a waitress in Palm Desert, experiencing extreme stress and anxiety. The workplace was an extremely hostile environment for a Black woman and I was always the victim of racism, sexual harassment and gender discrimination. My friend highly recommended this firm to me and it was the best advice I could’ve taken! I filed my paperwork after the statute of limitation and we were still able to settle during deposition and it was well worth it! Workers comp is very hard to litigate but we still came out victorious! Raj is direct and straight to the point, but efficiently tackles all obstacles. If you’re a person of color and you feel nervous to ask for legal assistance, DONT! This is an amazing safe place to receive genuine honest trustworthy legal services. Thank you for helping me, standing up for me, giving me a voice to speak up for myself! I’ve got so much more confidence and assurance about myself, life feels great after a little well deserved justice!

The Brutal and Awesome Attorney...
Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness I worked for a clinic, and those people fired me when I got sick with Covid at the clinic, due to them exposing me to Covid, and not even providing PPE! All these people cared about was making money and not my safety- nor the patient's safety! I went to another location at first, and they didn't do anything for me- even their paperwork was filled with errors. So many times I needed to have them correct it repeatedly. I finally came to my senses and dropped them. I went to Mr. Raj Patel at RP Law Group. And once again, this attorney was so good. TWICE he has helped me, and TWICE he has given me justice- and a lot of money WITHOUT even having a DEPOSITION! Yes, that is how wonderful this attorney is. Mr. Patel is brutal to everyone- I highly recommend him. His team will fight for you like no other! Thank you very much Mr. Raj Patel, and his very efficient team- you guys are so helpful, and I am forever grateful.

Raj Patel is a great honest Attorney.
If I were to be able to give more than 5 stars to RP Law Group I would! I was injured at work last year and me being new to this corrupted system I decided to hire an Attorney that did absolutely NOTHING for me or my case! I was worried because the doctors were always treating me like a number with no sympathy or respect whatsoever but that's very common in Workers Compensation. After noticing my previous “Attorney” was no good I rid of him and started looking for a new attorney. I kept going to different law firms but they all kept referring me to go see another workers compensation attorney and they wouldn’t take my complicated case. I then made the best move and searched online for the best workers compensation attorneys in San Bernardino County and RP Law Group was under the category of one of the best Attorneys in Riverside, CA. I looked him up and seen all the great positive reviews he had/has. I knew I had to give RP Law firm a call... within minutes of calling his office, he called me back and got me a consultation the same day. The principal Attorney at RP Law Group...Raj Patel was very accessible and straightforward. He told me not to worry and took on my case when nobody was willing to help me out...and if I couldn’t make it to his law firm... he will go out his way and come to me. He even gave me his cell phone number which nobody does. At RP Law Group you will be speaking directly to the attorney which is a great thing! He was aggressive(in a good way) and serious about helping me. He does not sugarcoat or play games. Raj and Betty kept me up to date on my case regularly. Every time I called Betty she would always answer the 100 questions I had! They are seriously great people! They were always there and fought for me! Mr. Patel waited patiently for me to reach MMI (Maximum Medical Improvement) and batted and settled my case afterward with a great settlement because of the great experience he has! There are not enough words to describe the fantastic work Raj Patel did for me! If they were busy which is understandable they would always return my calls promptly. If you are an injured worker... I highly recommend RP Law Group! You will not be disappointed.

Straightforward Attorney
Easy access to attorney, very responsive, and helpful staff. Worker's Compensation is not Taboo. In my opinion, the doctors are skewed. Raj Patel encouraged me to be strong. I am very vulnerable -- just a worker who was trying to make a living. I don't know the ends and out of WC laws. Raj stood up for me and with me through the entire process. There are two reasons why I chose this firm. 1. He is a straightforward person. He was transparent with me. 2. When I first walked in to get my case evaluated, Betty, Raj, Nancy, and the staff were very personable. I didn't know I had a WC case! This firm changed the course of my life for the better. Get your case evaluated today!

Amazing attorney! You won’t regret making that call!
After being hurt on the job I was in pain, stressed, confused and unsure about where to turn for help. After calling numerous law firms, being ignored, and even being turned away I finally found RP law group. After doing my research and reading amazing things about Mr.Patal and his team I decided to give them a call. The same day that i spoke with Raj Patal, we scheduled a consultation in person to discuss my case. The first time I met Raj I knew from his spirit and he’s genuine personality that he was going to be the one that was going to help me. He made me feel very important and taken care of, and as a young minority woman that is something that I value greatly. I felt like he could relate to me. He assured me that I had nothing to worry about and that he was going to take care of everything. I finally felt like I was in good hands. Raj fought for me and made sure I was treated fairly. These big corporations like to make us feel small and like we have no chance against them but Mr.Patal assured me that we had a fighting chance. If you are still debating weather to give RP law group a call I will tell you to hesitate no longer as give them a chance ,trust me you won’t be disappointed. Raj made sure from the beginning of my case to the end (which was extremely fast) that he never stopped contacting me or kept me in the dark. Raj is very determined and worked so hard on my case that he even called me from the hospital bed as he was recovering from a injury. That’s when I knew that he was a different type of attorney that you don’t come across to often. He works on the weekends, late nights, holidays even while injured just to make sure my case was being handled and taken care of in a very rapid manner. Mr.Patal is a determined and superior attorney. I can’t thank him enough for all his hard work. I will always recommend RP law group, they truly go above and beyond.

Work comp
Raj Patel went out of his way to help me in my case! He’s straight forward & will definitely help you & your family even when you think it’s impossible... We have so many rights that we’re entitled to & Mr. Patel will assure you it’s your given right to exercise them. He resolved my case in less than 6 months, while worker’s compensation is very difficult to understand! I was involved in a unfortunate accident while working, he even advised me for my third party rights. He also fights hard with insurance companies’ attorneys, does not roll over, very passionate human being. My unfortunate financial situation didn’t last long due to his sincere help. My family, & most importantly myself, is now in a better financial situation because of him. I am very grateful & appreciate the experience I had with him

Don't let you lack of knowledge on labor laws stop you from getting Justice.
My mother had sustained cumulative trauma from a factory she had been working for 20 years. With less than a high school education, she was not aware of labor laws with workers comp, and rights workers entitled to in California. So it came as a complete shock when her employer terminated with nothing to show for 20 years of loyalty, other than poor health from a factory job and no income during a pandamic. As her son, with some background in HR, I scoured the internet and the phone book looking for a lawyer that is reputable and trustworthy to fight for those that truly need it. It was after much search and comparison that I came across RP LAW GROUP. Raj Patel not only helped educate my mother an I about California labor laws and rights we have but was very patient and sympathetic to our situation. Since I do not live in Corona, and was unable to translate for my mother, but Raj Patel was kind enough to find translators on my behalf so my mother stayed in the loop. We were blessed to find such an efficient Attorney because he did not waste our time. He gave us the facts, and was able to follow through with not only helping us with our wrongful term case, but also connecting us to any other parties(worker's comp) that may assist us further. It was only today I was informed that my mother would be able to get a settlement, and I wanted to make sure credit was given where it is due. The message I like to convey to anyone reading this review is if you or a loved one find themselves in a situation where you are wronged by an employer, through no fault of your own, don't let your lack of knowledge of labor laws get in the way of you finding justice. Seek out Raj Patel at RP LAW Group and get educated on your rights.

Workers comp from hell
This man raj is the real deal. No joke, I moved here from Chicago and every state has different laws. The laws suck here in Cali for workers. Raj though gives it to you straight. He’s always up for a fight and for the employee. He’s not in this business to make friends. He’s in it to make sure you get paid. Doesn’t sugarcoat stuff at all. He’s not just an attorney he cares about your case and cares about you. Thank you Raj.

Raj, Patel, Was a patient and diligent Attorney for my case , Representing me, with the utmost detail and compassion for my best interest. Mr. Patel also has a respected relationship with Riverside courts and attorneys throughout the county, and always made himself or his staff available to me whenever i had questions and concerns. By the close of my case, not only was he a stellar Attorney, he also became a trusted friend. Once again, i was lucky to have him represent me, and I Thank RPLawGroup for being my sheild in that battle.

Very experienced, Effective, thorough, empathetic, fair, and honest attorney
Mr Patel is an awesome attorney. From the very beginning I knew he was honest and fair, because he accepted my case when no other attorney would. He Met with me on the weekend to review my case. He was patient, honest, and thorough in reviewing all documents pertaining to my claim as well. Despite my previous attorneys non compliance in sending my file ( EVER ), Mr Patel continued to aggressively fight for my W/C rights. Mr Patel was able to get my case as well as deposition moved to my city, in merely 4 months. Mr Patel settled my arduous case that I thought would never end with my horrible previous attorney ASAP! Mr Patel not only settled my claim quickly in the matter of 4 months he acquired 25,000 more than my previous attorney. During my deposition Mr Patel negotiated as if he were fighting for himself, to the point there was no deposition. The defense settled after Mr Patel’s negotiatiating approach, and the court reporter never typed one single word!! Mr Patel understood my previous frustration pertaining to my previous attorney and he made sure I didn’t experience that again. Mr Patel went above and beyond during a mere 4 months and I would recommend his law firm to everyone that will listen. I just wish I would have known and retained him in the beginning. Mr Patel rescued me from the vicious W/C system and my relentless previous employers attorney. During my deposition Mr Patel’s experience was evident and all parties backed down. Anyone thinking of retaining Mr Patel will be more than satisfied when it’s all said and done. I can’t thank him and his efforts enough. God bless you Mr Patel.
