WHO HURT YOU?? I love you 💕 Razavi Law! 🙌🏻 If you’re in an accident, call them first. I was in an accident and called my insurance company (a very well known company) and was perplexed and questioning what they wanted to do, I got frustrated and found Razavi Law. They are the best; kind, compassionate and they ‘communicate’ well. I’ve referred many people to them. I like seeing Ali on my grocery cart. 😊Even if they didn’t remember my birthday, (they always do) I’d write this review. Call Razavi, you’ll be so happy you did, you don’t have to worry about a thing; they’ve got you.

Razavi Law Group is outstanding. I can say so with confidence because of how well my case was handled, how my assigned lawyer (Veronica Buckels), case manager (Cristina Espinoza) and the lien negotiator (Abril Zamora) interacted with me and how satisfied I was with the resolution of my case. Love them all but a BIG shout out to Abril the lien negotiator for reducing those bills. Lol.Background Information: I had already signed a contract with a different law firm but I was very unhappy with how things were progressing or should I say not progressing. Additionally, that lawyer was collecting his 33.33% + fees but wanted me to do all the research and information/record gathering. Moreover, he kept losing the bill for the ambulance services and never followed up on it like he promised and I received a delinquent notification.I was very frustrated and didn't know what to do. A friend suggested I change lawyers so I checked Google and Yelp for law firm recommendations. Yes, I did, don't judge me. Lol. Razavi Law Group had positive reviews on both platforms. Additionally, one of my associates recommended them. I also verified via the State Bar of California and Better Business Bureau websites.I met with Razavi Law Group and explained my situation. They agreed to take my case even though it meant they would have to split the fees with that other useless law firm I had signed with.I'm so glad I switched to Razavi Law Group. What a difference! They took care of everything. I didn't have to do anything on my end except to sign the documents. They kept me updated, explained things clearly and answered all my questions.I'm thankful for Razavi Law Group and I definitely 100% 💯 recommend them.

I liked working with James. He is really sweet, kind, and patient. After my accident, I was having a panic attack, and he took the time to reassure me and walk me through what I needed to do. He kept me updated and is always willing to explain and answer any questions. I felt very comfortable working with him.Ali is also very responsive.
