I would give him more than 5 stars!

John Demas and his staff fought LONG and HARD for me during a personal injury case. Mr. Demas and his staff are all very friendly, fast, and always kept me in the loop even as an international student. Being just a teenager at the time of my accident, I didn't know anything about law but John was abl...e to help me cope with the worry and anxiety of a pending case. He told me just to focus on getting better and he'd do all the battling for me and that's exactly what happened. He was able to pull some strings for me and in the end, I wouldn't go to any other lawyer. I'm very happy with my results and to have had John Demas not only as an attorney but also as a supportive friend who genuinely cares about his clients. A big thank you from Chicago to everyone at the firm! If you're looking for a PI attorney for yourself or for your child, John Demas is the way to go!

John was a great attorney and advocate for me

I used to be a criminal defense attorney myself so I'm familiar with trial preparation, negotiations and legal strategies. I'm also a conscious consumer which means that I have relatively high expectations of products and services. I do a lot of reviews on Amazon, etc because I think it's important f...or consumers to share information to make informed decisions. That being said, after all, purchases are always subject to some risk and variability - we know that personality, timing, style, etc. all matter. I retained John on a case against my auto insurance company. I was stuck and my car totaled by someone; I got surgery on my shoulder. The other driver's insurance didn't cover all my expenses, etc. I filed a claim with State Farm (I have since left that insurance company) who made a ridiculous offer to settle. Long story short we settled for more than I had expected and well within the range of acceptability. During this process John's communication and accessibility were excellent. And, he was clear and concise in his explanations of the process, procedures and strategic options. I have and will continue to recommend John to anyone that is looking for a lawyer referral.

Best Attorney Ever!

John Demas took care of the entire situation with no headaches or worries. Demas Law Group handled the accident, the insurance companies and the other attorneys. The entire staff was professional and a pleasure to work with...John Demas was a consummate professional, but he was more like a family f...riend. The best lawyer and law firm in Sacramento. I would recommend John and the Demas Law Group to all that need help. Thank you John and Demas Law Group for a fantastic job! Charley [removed by Avvo Staff] client

Attorney John Demas is an extraordinary lawyer

Attorney John Demas is an extraordinary lawyer. In 2010 I was struck by a car at dusk while walking across a crosswalk. I was lucky to have not broken my neck but was out of work for weeks, coming back to work and dealing with the incident was confusing. My friend helped me to find John, who listened... to my case, looked over all the paperwork and said he could absolutely help. He helped and more, he would check in to see how I was doing, made sure I was taking my time and not rushing the case. The car first struck my right leg. I was unable to do much physical exercise for a while and it was not for 6 months did I realize the problem with my leg, which I had to get surgery on for a meniscus tear resulting from being struck by the car. Had John not told me to be patient and make sure I am as close to 100% as possible this surgery would not have occurred. I am pretty sure he even called while he was on vacation to make sure everything was going alright. I cannot say enough great things about my experience with him and his firm. I would highly recommend John Demas to anyone in need of a personal injury lawyer, he is excellent!

I would strongly recommended John Demas to any injured victim.

I would not hesitate to recommend the services of John Demas and his office to handle a personal injury claim. I was in a serious car accident in 2007 and my partner was injured to the extent of becoming a quadriplegic as a result. The other driver was at fault and was underinsured. We were able t...o get a full settlement (policy limits) for her, but the more complicated issues of the case involved myself. As a registered domestic partner I was not recognized legally as a "spouse," and could have received little to no settlement compensation. In addition, my injury claim was very minor. Because of John's tenancity, advocacy and novel legal arguments, he was able to obtain for me a full settlement (policy limits) for my claim -- something not expected or most probably, not been done before for a registered domestic partner. I would strongly recommend him and his office. They really cared about us and did everything in their power to help us.
