Car accident case

Jessica Castro was my lawyer for my case on a car accident I had 2 years ago. She helped me reduce my high medical bills, got me a settlement, and never left me in the dark concerning my case. She personally would call me, or her assistant gabby, and always contacted me weekly to let me know how my c...ase was moving along. They also asked if I needed any other treatment for my injuries I received from my car accident that unfortunately left me unable to walk or work for about 5 months. If I needed to reach her for any questions I had, she would always answer me, and if she could not at the moment, she would return my call as soon as she had the chance. Jessica Castro is very respectful, very kind, and helpful lawyer. She did a marvelous job on my case and would definitely recommend her to anybody that's needs a lawyer. I will keep her law firms number and hers just incase I ever have any problems in the future. Thank you Jessica Castro for everything you did for me! Your the best :)

Excellent Lawyer

My grandmother was hit by a car while walking in a parking lot. I called Jessica right away. Jessica was attentive, empathetic, and an excellent communicator. She communicated with us constantly and kept us informed regarding the case at every step. She patiently and carefully explained the process a...nd details of the case in a way my family could understand it. She negotiated the best settlement possible for my grandmother. Jessica was the obvious choice for me and she did an excellent job. Thank you for being my grandmother's advocate when she needed it most.

Kind, professional and great results!

Jessica Castro is the best! I was involved in a car accident and luckily I knew Jessica. She was so helpful and walked me through every step. I received very fair compensation and amazing medical care. Her referrals were great! I felt so taken care of throughout the process, and she was always respon...sive and professional.

Client review

Jessica took such good care of me after my car accident. From the minute I walked into the office for my first meeting, I felt heard and like she would go to bat for me. I have always feared having to get an attorney, but she squelched that! Everything was go easy, and she handled all of the communic...ation with the at-fault party. She communicated well, even after I moved out of state. I am very happy with the outcome of my claim, and I have Jessica to thank for that. If you need an attorney who will work to get you what you deserve, look no further. 10/10.

Highly Recommend

In 2017 I was assaulted and was pleased to discover El Dabe through a family member. Jessica Castro was the lead for my case and she really took the initiative to keep me up to date with everything. Herself and the El Dabe staff did a great job to make me feel at ease as well as comforted during the ...difficult time I was experiencing. I highly recommend El Dabe. I did receive a rightful amount of compensation for the actions relating to the assault and I thank El Dabe and their entire staff for making it possible to give me the justice that I deserved.

When you retain Jessica, you immediately feel confident for a favorable outcome. She has managed a team from pre-litigation and through trial, while continuing to avail herself to her clients. I have witnessed her abilities firsthand and can attest that clients and colleagues will find her to be patient, potent, and always positive. Her attributes are instrumental to understanding a client's needs and effectively communicating it to the defense throughout litigation - particularly in presenting a client's personal story in front of a jury of her peers."

"Jessica is an incredibly passionate and creative personal injury attorney. She goes out of her way to make sure her clients are kept in the loop. Jessica has a stellar reputation in the SoCal personal injury community for obtaining max dollar outcomes for her clients. Unlike many of her peers, Jessica regularly invests in staying current with recent court decisions and trends, and her strategy on cases is always on point as a result. And speaking of strategy and how she handles a case, Jessica spends significant time and energy preparing and executing the game plan - more time preparing puts her in a strong negotiating position, and the results she gets for her clients are proof that her approach works. I turn to Jessica for a second opinion on complex cases. I recommend her without reservation."

"I strongly endorse Jessi Castro. She is an effective attorney. Her thoroughness and eye for detail in handling her cases are certainly assets. Of course, Jessi’s rarest asset is her empathy for the plight of her clients and her desire to help them through a difficult time.
