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.

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.

When I met John I had no idea how to pick the right attorney so I left it up to the only thing I could trust, My gut. From the day I met him he told me that he would not make me any promises. He said I had a good case and that he would do his best to help me. I had been injured in a motor vehicle a...ccident and had already had a back surgury that failed. I was currently back to work, but I knew I couldn't do it much longer. Over the next 2 1/2 years John and his staff became like a part of my family. A person I trusted and knew he would be there whenever I called. He always gave me good advice and helped me make the right decisions. My case ended up going to a superior court trial against The County of Sacramento, an experience that I would never want to go through again. 8 of the most emotional days of my life. In the end we were awarded 4.5 million dollars. I truly believe that John Demas was the difference in that case, and I know he would be there for all his clients.
