Reviews & Testimonials

“Mr. Payab was able to get me a rather large settlement.”

Mr. Payab was my attorney regarding an employment matter where I was wrongfully terminated. Although, my previous employer went out of business, Mr. Payab was able to hold the parent company liable for my damages. Mr. Payab was also able to overcome the fact that the former employee who harassed me was nowhere to be found and I had no witnesses regarding my case. Despite all the difficulties in my case, Mr. Payab was able to get me a rather large settlement against the parent company. I am very happy with the results in my case. Mr. Payab is extremely knowledgeable regarding employment litigation, and I highly recommend him regarding any employment or wrongful termination matters.

“I felt well represented with Mr. Payab as my attorney.”

I have used Mr. Payab for several years as my attorney for several matters including an employment matter and a recent auto accident matter which resolved in my favor. I received compensation for what I went through and all of my medical bills were paid from the settlement proceeds of the case. He also obtained a substantial discount on my medical bills which saved me a lot of money. The case was resolved shortly after I was done with my treatments with my doctors. He was always available to answer all my questions. I felt well represented with Mr. Payab as my attorney, and I will call him again for any future legal issues.

“Let me start by saying David was outstanding.”

Let me start by saying David was outstanding. Now I'll tell you why. We are an employer and came to David to ask him questions of whether we should appeal the judgment made by the EDD. We were very concerned about the possibility of civil lawsuit down the road based on the judgment. David listened to our facts in its entirety and alleviated our heavy concerns. David in my opinion and my wife's opinion is the go to guy for all your EDD concerns whether you're an employee or employer. Thank you David, you are the best!

“Excellent Attorney - Highly Recommended”

I was involved in a rear-end collision just over 3 years ago and, after an exhaustive search, found David on Avvo. After reading through numerous 5 star reviews, I felt as if I had found the attorney I wanted to represent me in this matter. Following a phone call and an initial consultation in his office, I knew in my gut I had made the right choice. He was very down-to-earth, listened intently to my concerns, and took copious notes as I related what had happened. On a deeper level, and this is still true today as it was then, he demonstrated he truly cared about me and my overall well-being. For the next 3 years, as I navigated my way through treatment, David responded almost immediately to my email questions and/or updates. If I ever needed to speak with him directly, he would always find the time to return calls quickly, never leaving me wondering when I'd hear back. Further, his expert legal secretaries always stayed on top of the case, especially when it came to issues relating to Medicare. In the end, he was able to negotiate a wonderful settlement for me. I would highly recommend David to anyone seeking a personal injury attorney. You will not be disappointed. One Additional Footnote: As luck would have it, 2 years into this case, I was involved in another rear-end collision, this time as a passenger. I immediately contacted David who was kind enough to represent me in this matter as well. He handled this case as efficiently as he did the first. I couldn't be more pleased.
