Personal Injury x2

I was hit by a car when I was walking to catch a bus, after months of struggling with insurance and medical expenses I knew I was in over my head. Then, I was hit by another car and I knew I needed help. I wish I wouldn't have waited so long to hire Ryan because as soon as I did he went straight to w...ork. He helped walk me through the process and it felt like I finally had someone on my side to help with the insurance and get my recovery on track. He contacted my doctors and made sure that any outstanding medical bills were paid by the available insurance coverage. When it came time to resolve my claim with the at-fault drivers, he did a great job of explaining all of my options and providing sound advice. Not only did Ryan present my case very effectively but he was also thoughtful and responsive as he walked my husband and I through everything. Ryan did double the work for me with the two accidents and injuries and I am thankful to have had him on my side. You can find a lot of lawyers who will represent your case but not everyone will be someone you can feel good about representing you and keeping to your values. We were thrilled with Ryan and that he resolved the case for us.

Great service!

“I work at Amazon and was involved in a car collision on the freeway. I decided to contact Ryan since he was one of the attorneys recommended by the company and I didn’t have time or want to deal with the insurance companies on my own. Ryan was very easy to talk to and did a good job handling my cl...aim, communicating with me an ultimately resolving my case. He did such a great job that I have referred his services to other people at Amazon.”

Client

I hired Ryan shortly after I was in a bad car collision that wasn’t my fault. I had never hired a lawyer before so I wasn’t really sure what to expect. Ryan was very easy to talk to and met me at a time and place that was very convenient with my schedule. He explained everything well and I felt ve...ry comfortable working with him. As I continued to treat I soon realized that my injury was permanent. Ryan did a great job talking to my doctors and documenting everything that was needed so that we could effectively pursue my injury claim. I was very impressed with Ryan’s tenacity in pursuing my claim. He also answered all of my questions and did a good job explaining the legal process, which at times was complicated. In the end we recovered the maximum benefits available. Like everyone, I wish the collision and injury had never happened. The only silver lining was meeting Ryan and having him guide me through this difficult period in my life. If you are facing a difficult injury that was caused by car crash, you should consider calling Ryan and talking to him. I’m confident you will be very satisfied with his services.

Pauley Law Group Review

Ryan was extremely easy to work with. Made everything very clear. Always available, either by text, email or phone. I would highly recommend Pauley Law Group to anyone looking for help after an accident. Thank you Ryan! You’re the best.

Beyond Expectations

Ryan’s a great attorney and looks out for his clients. I was hit on the freeway at a high rate of speed. Having never been in a crash before I didn’t know what to do. When I contacted Ryan he did a great job walking me through everything and answering all of my questions. As other questions came ...up during the case he was always quick to answer via email, text or call. We had to file suit against the person that hit me, but Ryan did a great job handling everything and making sure I understood the process. When it came time to resolve the case Ryan did an exceptional job talking to me and understanding what I wanted from the settlement. We agreed on an amount that met my expectations. I hope I never need to use Ryan again, but if I do I won’t hesitate to call him.
