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.

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 n...o 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.

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.
