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!

Raj Patel is Ruthless!

RP Law Group has been phenomenal on getting my case settled! I've been in a work related motorcycle accident; delivering gas money to a company truck that stopped on the side of the freeway. As I informed my employer of my accident and injury they did nothing to help me in anyway, but instead they le...t me go. So that's when I called RP Law Group; they have been with me step by step, advising me on what my legal actions are and even helped me set up a doctor to start my physical therapy. I am really glad that I was able to get compensated what I deserved. I don't believe that I finally got my case settled! If you or anyone need a Excellent Workers Comp. Attorney then you should contact RP Law Group. They will treat you like family; like they have done for me.

The best of the best!

If you want a lawyer who is going to get you what you want, R&P Law Group is the best of the best! I have been dealing with a workers comp case for 5 ½ years. After being served a settlement multiple times in the mail, I figured it was time to get a lawyer. Looking back, I wish I would have done that... at the very beginning! Raj and his team have handled many cases and honestly know the ins and outs with everything from utilization review, to neutral doctors, to finalizing settlements and walked me through every step. The whole workers comp process in general is very confusing and it was so nice to have someone who understood what I was going through and how to get me what I needed. Raj is very intelligent and blunt, and will be completely honest with you (whether good or bad), which I learned is exactly what you need in a lawyer. Last week, I went in for a deposition and instead I came out with over 3.5X my original settlement amount! Raj knew his exact moves and was able to make an incredible deal. My family and I now have a law firm for life and we couldn’t be happier with the overall service and experience.

Please read this may help someone.

After much headache with a law firm from Orange County. I decided to go more close to home. Best decision of my life. I contacted RP Law Group about a work injury I sustained during the holiday season. During that time I wasn't able to spend time with my family and I couldn't attend my classes like I... used to. My former law firm gave me the run around and quite honestly didn't care about me. Everything changed when I signed with RP Law Group. They were professional, and have a lot of compassion towards my issue. I'm a college student who can't wait 1-3 years to go to court. RP Law Group assured me that I would be taken care of. I must point out when RP Law Group tells you they're going to take care of something they always deliver! I was in shock that my case was resolved in a month and a half! That's incredibly fast, and none of the staff at RP Law Group ever gave me the run around. If you're looking for a law office that not only cares RP Law Group is the best. Don't make long commutes to only be told "the attorney is out". RP Law Group always has someone who is ready to assist you. I promise you that RP Law Group will, not only meet your expectations they will exceed them.
