Attorney Daneshrad is very professional and courteous. I called him after being involved in a rear ender. I didnโ€™t know anything about anything when it came to the process for making a claim after a car accident. Everyone at his office including Jennifer did everything in their power to make sure I was taken care of.

They made doctors appointments and regularly called to check-in on me. We ended up having to file a lawsuit. Three months after we did, attorney Daneshrad called me with great news! We had a settlement offer. It was for a lot more than I could have imagined. It has been three weeks since the settlement and he still calls me to check in on my injuries. You can tell he really cares about. He isnโ€™t just about the numbers. Thank you attorney Daneshrad! And happy holidays!
