2009 VW Jetta accident

Abraham was very attentive. His work for me was was professional and thorough. Through his persistence I garnered a d.v. and loss of use claim above my expectations. I am glad to have had Abraham fighting hard on my side.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2020.

Reprimand issued in WA, 2020

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
