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.

Workers Comp - Psych & Ortho

RP Law Group is everything you want in an attorney. They were in constant contact with me from beginning to end. Weekends, after hours, even on his vacation he was taking my questions I tried to take on my case myself, I wish I hadn’t done that. Get representation, workers comp is scary, confusing..., and a very long process. Raj finished my case better than I could have ever expected. Do not let this system take down us “Hispanics”. Raj is respectful and he will fight for you! Thank you so much RP LAW GROUP!

RP Law Group is the BEST!!

I can start by saying RP Law Group is a great place Raj and the staff are trusting, professional and simply awesome! I can say my case was time consuming but Raj and the staff always kept me updated and kept me at ease. At first I didn't know if I had a case but Raj and Anreeka let me know Right on t...he spot I did... If you have a question or think you have a case Raj and his team are trustworthy! Im truly greatful fir Raj and his staff they closed my case and fought for me till the end they never let their guard down I will always be greatful!!

My experience

In my opinion with my involvement with Raj Patel is very positive thus far. He explains things to clarify issues pretty well and he responds back immediately . The response and consideration of case details astonish me and make me feel pretty secure. For a man with so many cases and other obligations... he remembers u and the details associated. Hes very stern and passionate . I feel hes very well versed in his occupation . He got me a fair price farely fast . I highly recommend him to represent u. Awesome and knowledgeable. He may come off rude but do not take offense to his attitude due to the fact of being passionate. It may seem like hes yelling at u as i have thought previously but also knew that hes frustrated for u not at u. He does care very much so. Now i see why his ratings are so high and positive in what he does. Thank u MR. RAJ PATEL! He works for U . The choices of ur case are made by U with UR consent . He DOES NOT decide for u or obligate u in anyway. Understand it is literally all about u and ur care and ur issues . He fights for u all the way.

One happy client!

I just wanted to take a moment to thank Raj Patel and his associates at RP Law Group and hopefully help others who may have found themselves in the same predicament as my mom and I. During my mom's employment she suffered from carpal tunnel which she assumed would get better in time. She eventually s...ought medical attention and learned that her condition was so severe she was going to need surgery on both her wrists. After informing her employer, my mom was placed on leave and a workers comp case was opened. At first, the process seemed to go well but then seemed to drag on. It took 2 years for my to receive the surgery she needed on both her wrists, during which her physical therapy was cut short, her financial compensation was halted, and her claims adjuster was non responsive. Since this was our first experience with a workers comp case we decided to seek legal advice. After doing my research, I found the RP Law Group. After my initial contact, he immediately responded and asked if we could meet with him that evening. After hearing our story, he informed us that he could help even though we were so far into the case. He is well versed in the process, the attorney's and doctors involved and was completely honest with us each step of the way. Within a couple months my moms case was settled for more than she thought she would get. I wish we would have contacted him sooner so that we could have saved the stress of this entire situation. If you need legal help don't wait, call Raj you won't regret it!
