Great job getting my PIP paid by my ins carrier

I began having issues with my own insurance company paying my bills on the personal injury protection portion of my claim from the hit and run accident. I have always paid my insurance on time and been with the same company fora long time. Their denials for paying did not even make sense. This kep...t delaying my getting further treatment for a nerve injury to my elbow which was causing issues with my ability to feel some of my fingers on my dominant left hand. Finally and thankfully Alex filed a lawsuit to try to get things moving so I could get treatment. Still they dragged their feet but Alex looked out for me the whole way along with Richard ensuring I would get all PIP I had paid for . It should never require them to have had to do this for a PIP portion but it finally worked and the company settled this so I could get by providers paid and move forward trying to find a solution for the nerve damage in my left arm. I am pleased to have had RizkLaw on my side with their knowledge of insurance claims and persona injury. They also understood how I was feeling and the emotional stress this was taking on me due to it being a hit and run and the issues with being left alone to wait for my husband to get there - then the police report having inaccurate information which Richard forced them to come and amend the report. I am so happy with how things have turned out and now trying to be able to find a solution for my arm without this weighing me down emotionally.

When you gave money to your auto insurance company (as insurance premiums) It promised you (via your insurance policy), to pay 'reasonable and necessary" medical expenses caused by the crash up to the amount of your insurance limits. You trusted your insurance company to do that and not play games. Sadly, these days many insurers play the "deny, delay and defend" game. They leverage their financial, insurance knowledge advantage against consumers like you. It’s sad that you had to sue your own insurer to force it to make good on its promise. I'm overjoyed that we successfully pushed back to make you whole. You deserve it!

Out of State Situation Resolved.

Early in 2015 my wife and I had to seek out a lawyer for a personal injury that we both endured. After doing a somewhat lengthy google search we found Richard Rizk as a potential candidate to be our personal lawyer. He seemed to be the right fit for our case and with time and now closure we are fort...unate to have had him for our case. Our scenario was unique in the sense that we lived out of state but had to file suit in Oregon. Richard and his law office scheduled meetings that revolved around on our schedule and not necessarily his. Again, our situation sometimes required that we go to Portland to meet with Richard and he seemed very flexible in making certain that his schedule fit our schedule. In the early phases he gave us homework that revolved around getting necessary documents, videos, pictures, etc that would help contribute to our case. At times, our communication was challenging due to the distance but Richard would always keep in touch with us and arrange meetings either in person, over the phone or through email to keep us in the loop. He would give advice on how to proceed but always left the decision making up to us without any pressure from him. Often the case, our decisions were already made and Richard just reaffirmed them. As the case began to take form in the latter portion, we had depositions by the other lawyer team and Richard gave us the necessary feedback before, during and after the depositions. I personally would never wish depositions upon anyone because they are grueling, stress filled Q and A at the highest level. However, with Richard in the room we felt as though he would make certain that the deposition was fair, make objections when necessary and call anyone out that was taking things too far. In the end, we got a settlement that seemed fair and that my wife and I were comfortable with. Richard and his team did a great job throughout the whole process and we feel lucky to have had him throughout our legal matter.

Informative

My family and I were in a car accident earlier this year and we really needed some advice since we've never been in this situation before. Richard was helpful by listening, he went through all the scenarios on how it could play out. Unfortunately, our incident is a bit complex and his honesty is m...uch appreciated because in the end he had our best interest at heart. Thank you!

Powerful Team

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Attorney Richard Rizk and paralegal Don Nash for their tremendous work on a complex and challenging array of cases. I initially met Richard in the summer of 2011 after I had been involved in an on-the-job, no fault auto accident. As we neared close to se...ttling the case, I was involved in a second and then a third on-the-job, no fault auto accident. Each time I was hit, my injuries worsened and my self-worth deteriorated. Richard was caring, skillful and assertive. He definitely has a strong understanding of insurance law and state law and knows the practices of powerful insurance firms. Richard and Don knew how to build the cases, how to negotiate the cases between the multiple insurance firms and in the end I received the compensation and justice I deserved. Over the course of 3 ½ years of working with Richard Rizk and his team, I have personally observed Richard consistently demonstrate a keen intellect, sound reasoning, and objectivity along with an acute sense of fairness and equity. Richard Risk is professional, accomplished, skilled, honest, hardworking, and a qualified attorney that I am very grateful to have met and represent me during a difficult time in my life. I definitely recommend speaking to Richard Rizk if you are injured in an accident. Richard has a plethora of knowledge and knowledge is power and power is having Richard Rizk on your side.

A lawyer who actually cares

Mr. Rizk took the time to explain my options to me and he answered my questions in a knowledgeable and respectful way. He never made me feel like he was too busy to speak to me to update me on the status and it felt like he really cared about my case and worked to do what was in my best interest. I w...ould use him again in the future and recommend him without hesitation.
