Q:
Do you take work related injuries?
A:
No we don’t. You would need a Worker’s Compensation attorney. We wish you the best.
Nick M., Business Owner21 days agoQ:
Do you handle the settlement to reduce the dept from car accident?
A:
Yes, we do. As part of our representation of our clients who were injured in car accidents, we also negotiate down their medical bills at the end, and make sure they are paid off for as little as possible. Were you injured in a car accident?

Exceptional service from start to finish! I can't thank Steve and the team at M&Yenough for their expertise and support throughout my accident case. From the initial consultation to the final resolution, every interaction was professional, efficient, and incredibly helpful. Steve's knowledge and dedication ensured that my case was handled with care and precision. The entire staff at M&Y went above and beyond to make me feel heard and supported during a challenging time. Special shoutout to John for his outstanding assistance as well. If you're in need of legal representation, look no further than M&Y. Highly recommend!

I was in the worst accident of my life Oct 2021. It was a rear-end that ended up totaling the offending party's car. My car was almost a total loss, but luckily it was able to be salvaged. I also suffered from pretty bad whiplash, and had symptoms for almost a year.
M&Y worked with me through this entire case, and helped walk me through this entire process. I had never pursued an injury case before, so I was very thankful for JLeonardo's patience with me. I texted him a LOT haha! He was always reassuring and responsible.
After almost a year of treatment, M&Y got a very generous settlement, and I am really happy I went with them! Thanks so much!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Extremely happy that I found M&Y to help me with my case. It's not a common thing (hopefully) to need the help of a personal injury attorney, but it's important to be in capable and communicative hands when you do. Shoutout to Tracy Tucker, Director of Litigation, and James Zurawski for your guidance when I needed it. And super special shoutout to Rosa Delateja who brought a calm confidence to every call and really fought for me as we wrapped up my case. I sincerely appreciate this team. Hope I never need you again but if I do I know who to call :)

Just closed my case with the team at M&Y Injury Lawyers and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The team on my case were great communicators, and I felt super supported throughout my post accident treatment. I would definitely recommend them to anyone feeling like they need representation. I'm grateful because all I needed to focus on was heal from my accident, and M&Y took care of the rest.

Update 2/15/24 it's crazy this review still gets feedback... I couldn't help but laugh... he really responded and said.. "you weren't honest, and said you would leave a bad review on yelp if we didn't help with a down payment" mind you I have an excellent driving record... pay $80 for full coverage and I'm still with the same insurance company. I walk in faith, God knows and sees all.. the other party was good at lying.. and to this day I have no at fault accident on my driver record. I was young and trusting.. but to read this review years later... they was big mad.. but my review wasn't even bad, it was an honest account of the service I received.. I'm sure their bottom line wasn't affected... it's just funny they really tried to play me in their response... But u live n learn!! Be Blessed and I hope yall have a better experience than I did!

As you note, you were found at fault for the accident. You were not completely honest with us about the facts of the accident. We took your case, worked hard, and spent time and money based on your inaccurate version of what happened. In the end, both insurance companies (including your own) found you at fault. Under the law, you cannot obtain a monetary recovery if you are at fault for an accident. We sent you a letter advising you of this. You acknowledged this but then threatened to write us a bad Yelp review if we didn’t help you buy a car. We refused to do that, and you retaliated by writing this bad review. We are always available if you would like to discuss this further.
Aug 15, 2019Previous reviewI contacted M&Y Personal Injury Lawyers about a year ago. My car was totaled in an accident that was not my fault. At first they answered every call, no question went unanswered, no phone call or text was ignored. I was advised a few months back that my case was going to arbitration, then never heard from them again... when I called to get answers they were very short, rude and unwilling to explain anything, I also personally texted the lawyer for an update, and was ignored... They simply stated that I was found at fault... Period. I am upset I wasted all this time thinking that this company actually had my back. They did not even want to help with down payment for a new vehicle when I was only a few hundred short. Everything was taken care of via myself or my insurance... and now I sit with debt and injuries while im found at fault...wow!!!
Update... 8/15/19 not understanding why im still being harassed about something that happened over 2 years ago. Im over it... life moved on... Still to this day they are doing the most to bash my name. I never threatened anyone... this is a public forum, and im allowed to EXPRESS WHATEVER I WANT! But yet yall feel the need to blast my business because you are mad? Lets see what the CA Bar Association thinks about me being slandered because of a review!Dec 4, 2018Previous reviewI contacted M&Y Personal Injury Lawyers about a year ago.

First off... There was never any paperwork sent about the verdict and had someone picked up the phone to talk to me, never was I looking for monetary compensation. I just hung up with my insurance company and yet im still listed as not at fault. I just wanted someone to acknowledge that the accident was not my fault, and the other driver lied down to coaching her daughter to lie about injuries. I lost my car, and my job because of this accident, and I never said you guys didn't work hard, I said there was a huge lack of COMMUNICATION. I didn't use yelp to give a negative review, I stated how I felt and im entitled to do so. (Also found that you guys pay for good reviews). Next time instead of getting on Yelp calling me a liar... maybe pick up the phone and see why im unhappy. I serve a MIGHTY GOD, and I asked for assistance because I was short $500 on getting another car.... and been in another vehicle since 2/13/18. So before you try to slander me on Yelp... with a bunch of lies... get your facts straight. I talked to a female in the office that was extremely rude and unwilling to explain anything, and had there been communication of any sort the review wouldn't have went up. No letter was received on my end... so I called to get information after being ignored by Steven. You stated this review was unwarranted and an abuse of Yelp... so what is your reply... Professional??? Not at all.. - Mitch O.Lomita, CA396311Jan 9, 2024Updated review
I am never disappointed with M&Y services, my injuries and damage to the vehicle are taken care of. I never have to worry about anything, they update me on a daily basis, and keep everything on track. I am a satisfied customer!

I was part of a rear ended accident on New Year's Eve. After calling M&Y, they were very good at keeping an honest communication as well as giving a detailed breakdown of what to expect which made the situation run very smoothly.
They were very good at following up with me and giving thorough update on where we were standing and where the case is heading. From start to end, the case couldn't have gone smoother and simpler. Great job M&Y!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Liars and frauds. Their employees only last about a year or less before leaving the firm. McKenna left without notice as I was trying to get medical treatment. I am out of state and retained Steve Yamin and Daniel Reeves for my personal injury claim, with severe injuries, to represent me against a negligent driver when I was in SoCal. They were great for about one month until it became apparent they were liars and frauds. They would not arrange medical treatment in my home state of Arizona, even though they claimed specifically that they would. I received zero dollars from my property damage that they offered to help with. They are preventing me from retaining a new attorney with their ridiculous lien on my claim for little to no work done. Now I am receiving threats from them of outstanding bills and I am nearly $40K in debt.
NO Yelp, this is not a fake review. M&Y is actively working to remove negative reviews.Helpful 7Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 2 - Timothy S.Dublin, CA07Feb 2, 2024
If I could give them a negative star I would. I made the biggest mistake in my life for hiring them. I only hired them because I saw their old reviews on other sites raving about how good they are but you'll only get that great treatment out of them if you are White. In over two years they switched 5 attorneys on me because each one would quit after the other. They did not care about my well being at all and simply wanted to get the case over with for as little as possible. Every time I called they were always too busy to answer and when they did answer no one ever had the answer to any of my questions. They make false promises and lie about everything. They are partners with terrible medical providers who do not know how to assess your conditions properly and just care about getting paid out quickly so they'll dismiss anything and everything that you really need. They never did anything about mental health PTSD issues and absolutely brushed it aside Everytime I brought it up. They closed my case after over two years for the smallest amount they could get and made me feel like all my losses were for nothing. M&Y is like Wish.com of Law firms. Ignore them at all cost and don't waste away your life and time with these sleezy people.
To M&Y attorneys, you are absolute trash and a pathetic firm.Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 2Business owner information

Hi Timothy, we are sorry you feel this way. We handled your case for a lenghty period of time and we are a large firm that works as a team, and you had multiple people working on your case. At any point, you could have contacted any one of them with any issues and I believe you do so over the course of your case and we addressed them. Your case took a long time because there were difficult liability issues. Also, you would go months without getting any medical treatment which made the defense question your injuries.
We are very sorry about your mental health and PTSD but we can only get you compensated for conditions that were caused by the accident. That said, we did our best to get you mental health treatment, even though it was outside the course of your case. I believe we spoke to you many times about treatment options.
We also got you a good settlement (which you agreed and urged us to take). We also cut our fees down significantly to 25% and reduced your medical bills to where you by far and away got the largest share of the settlement (and much more than my firm or your doctors).
When your case concluded, you signed a distribution agreement indicating your were pleased with the outcome and the result, and you acknowledged we had addressed all of your concerns.
We were very surprised you left this review given everything I have mentioned above. We have reached out to you but you have refused to speak with us. Nevertheless, we are here if we can ever be of service in the future.
Good luck and we are here if you need anything.
