Should be 5+ stars

I have worked with Bo's team including Marc Wiesner & Tim English. These gentlemen have a deep knowledge of workers compensation issues. They are helping me now for over a year. I have received the best possible medical treatment and legal representation. Feel free to private message me if you have f...urther questions Ron

Get it done!

Bo and his staff, specifically Art, were very communicative about the process of the time frame of the case. They explained things to me in layman's terms and they were extremely prompt in all correspondence. They were very professional and got things done! I am truly impressed and highly recommend B...o Katzakian for your worker's compensation needs.

best attorney

Bo and his office staff are professional, helpful, and responsive to questions and problems very quickly. If i needed an appointment it wasn't a long wait. We started out with a different attorney who never returned calls, never returned emails and was very unprofessional- thanks to Bo and his staff ...our experience changed dramatically. Do not go it alone, workers compensation is not something you want to do on your own. The attorney gets paid when you do, you do not pay up front and they work hard to get the best outcomes for you !!! not what they think is the best outcome for them. They are very considerate and knowledgable.

Bo Katzakian

In November 2014 I hired Bo Katzakian to work as my attorney for a workers compensation case I had started a few months earlier. I had been trying to keep track of all documents from the third party insurance vendor, the occupational health team and the physician my employer had assigned me to for... treatment. Initially this seemed like it would be no problem, however almost immediately I realized this would be almost impossible. As I returned to full-duty I decided to hire an attorney -- just in case I did not understand everything my employer was requiring me to agree to, which seemed entirely likely. I spoke to the staff at Bo Katzakian's office and I was relieved when they said they had time the same day to see me and turn things over to them. That was the best decision I could have made. Everyone on Bo's staff was helpful, efficient and professional each time I had a question for the 8 months that followed! Bo answered e-mail messages almost immediately. The turn around time was amazing. He and his office got my case closed and reached a settlement (which I had no idea was even possible initially) with my employer and I could not be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend Bo Katzakian. Truly one of the best attorney's you can find. ~Susan P.

I'm so appreciative of Bo and his staff for all their work to bring my case to a close and a very fair settlement. Despite the insurance company dragging their feet and playing games....we finally settled on 7/23/15. And just received settlement check today! Thank you Bo and staff!

"I have known Bo for five years. Worker's Compensation is an extremely difficult area of law. The difficulty lies in handling the clients. Bo treats every injured worker with respect and dignity. He keeps his clients informed on every step of the process. I would recommend family members to Bo."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Mr Katzakian is an incredibly intelligent attorney. He fights for his clients rights and protects them against the big insurance companies who make money by denying liability and payment to injured people. You should not hesitate to consult with him regarding your case. He speaks multiple languages, most notably English and Spanish so he can assist a monolingual Spanish client."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
