Michael Joseph Cefali

I hired Michael Cefali after being involved in a HOV lane accident where my vehicle was launched airborne at 60+ MPH into the freeway center divider. Michael arranged for all of my medical treatment. During my year and half recovery he was always there for any questions I had and there were many. I w...as pleasantly surprised he was always available by phone and on the rare occasion when I left a message, my call was promptly returned. Absolutely no run around and he really took time to thoughtfully answer my questions. Early on in my recovery process I realized how concerned he was about my physical recovery. After a year and a half I was finally released by my final medical provider, and then Michael really went to work on my case. At this point I was concerned that this was going to turn into a long drawn out legal process. He explained the next steps, the demand letter he was going to send to the other party’s insurance carrier, what their probable response would be, and the strategy of our counter offer. I was still gathering additional lost wages information when I received a call from Mr. Cefali, to tell me there was no need to compile any further information. The other parties insurance carrier agreed to settle for the full value of their insured’s policy. I was amazed at this result. I asked Michael for a copy of his demand letter which he promptly provided. Michael’s demand letter was nothing short of brilliant. It was thorough and clearly explained my injuries and treatment and what he expected from them. They had absolutely no way out. One day later I signed the acceptance of settlement paperwork. Then Michael negotiated final medical bills with every one of many medical providers and paid each of them to full satisfaction. He Fed Exed me the net proceeds on a three day weekend. I know in my heart if I tried to recover directly from the other parties insurance company I would have received pennies on the dollar if I would have won at all. Michael was a great investment and a true champion for my cause. He deserves the highest recommendation. While you hope you only have to go through something like this once in a lifetime, I would call Michael Cefali for absolutely any personal injury need. He will be a permanent addition to my roll-a-dex for anyone I know who needs a personal injury attorney.

Michael handled my accident, and I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. We were in it together and I always felt heard even when he disagreed with me. He was patient with my hesitations and always gave me all of the options and his opinion on each of them. My case was tough but we discovered th...at we both enjoy a challenge! During one conversation he said he loves being an attorney. I asked why and he said it's because he gets to deliver good news and financial relief to his clients after an otherwise horrible experience. He's also generous. I was in another situation and needed advice outside his area of expertise. He gave me a referral within minutes and had already contacted the person to let them know I'd be calling. It was unfortunate that I needed an attorney at all, but I'm so grateful that I got Michael!

A few months ago I was in a car accident (rear-ended by a young man who fell asleep at the wheel) that left me with painful injuries (thankfully all healed!) and a totaled car. We had never had to hire an attorney before and I was a bit nervous and intimidated. From the first to last communication, M...r. Cefali was kind, caring, very knowledgeable, very professional, and a true pleasure to work with. My questions/concerns were always addressed quickly, thoroughly, and with great patience, care, and even a sense of humor! I needed physical therapy and (thankfully) that was set up immediately and I was placed into even more good hands. Mr. Cefali was very honest and realistic when I asked how long it would take to settle my case - not only did he get me the maximum amount I was entitled to but the case settled earlier than he estimated. When you need a lawyer, it is usually at time when you are in pain/feeling vulnerable and overwhelmed by the circumstances and unchartered territory. Mr. Cefali was truly a godsend. He is not only good at what he does but also caring and sensitive to the resulting issues that can arise from being injured in an accident. Honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. I pray you never need one but should you find yourself in need of someone to advocate for you, you will find NONE better than Mr. Cefali. I am eternally grateful for his kind help and excellent legal guidance. Please don't hesitate to put your trust in him!

Mike Cefali handled my injury case with the utmost professionalism, respect and integrity...he explained everything to me from the get-go, was very knowledgeable and attentive, did not leave me in the dark at anytime during the process. Mike always answered my calls/emails very quickly and my case w...as resolved much sooner than what I anticipated and I received a much larger settlement than originally expected. I am very happy with the outcome and would recommend Michael Cefali in a heartbeat, he's personally a great guy and truly cares for his clients.

I can't believe how fast Michael took care of my case. It was the best experience I have ever had dealing with a legal issue and an attorney I actually could trust to handle my case. The results were better than I would of expected. I will definitely recommend Michael to anyone who is in need of an a...ttorney who will take care of any injury or accident case.
