Car/Auto accident

Mr.Oshan is very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. He is very nice and friendly. I was in serious motor vehicle accident and I felt lost with so many bills and not knowing what to do next. Then a friend referred me to Mr.Oshan. He was very understanding and met me in a short notice. He took m...y case and took care of everything. He contacted me only when it is necessary. My case took two years and I ended up with a very good amount of pay settlement. I was very happy and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with legal matters. He is very easy to work with and honest. He is passionate about what he does and cares about you. Thank you Mr.Oshan for all your help. I really appreciate it!!...

Did a great job for me...

I was involved in two different accidents 7 months apart with two different vehicles. I had preexisting conditions and my case was very complex. I was going to deal with the insurance companies myself but then decided I needed help after getting loads of letters and calls. I called and intervie...wed many lawyers but I got a strong recommendation to hire Evan Oshan and or Oshan & Associates. The office is located in Downtown Seattle and was super easy to find. Right from the start I was able to talk directly to Evan (not to a secretary or an answering service). Evan spent a considerable amount of time explaining everything and the whole process. I was amazed to see how long he spent with much understanding and empathy to how these accidents affected my whole life. I was also very impressed with his knowledge and his confidence in taking on my cases. After many consultations and interviews with peer lawyers I felt most comfortable hiring him. Evan kept in constant communication with me on the status of the claims, and often checked to see how I was doing. Evan dealt with the insurance companies and all health providers. My job was only to get healthy and better. Evan also made sure I had an advance service that gave me some money prior to settling my cases which was very helpful for me and my family. He made sure I was able to get the personal injury care I needed with no out-of-pocket expenses. Evan also advanced all the costs associated with my case. I suggest anyone needing help with a similar matter get in touch with Evan Oshan ASAP. The peace of mind in having professionals handle the case was well worth it. Would I recommend this firm to anyone I know? Of course I would in a heart beat.

Great Attorney

Evan Oshan is a great attorney by far. His fees were reasonable and fair. He dealt with my case in a professional manner and always kept me informed. Evan Oshan Provided me with competent,diligent, and assertive representation. Mr. Oshan was able to persuade the prosecutor to reduce my felony... charge to a misdemeanor. I was very happy with the results he obtained for me. He did not over promise like other attorneys have in the past, however he over delivered. I believe actions speak louder than words and he proved to me that he can deliver results. At one point I was late and short on my payment to Evan and he understood and was patient with me and I really appreciated that. Some people kick you when you fall down but Evan didn't. He was there to help just like he promised. He was always there to take my calls and meet with me to discuss case issues. Every time I emailed or called, I gotten an answer within 24 hours back. He came up with a case strategy and it proved effective.

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.
