In their words

What clients wrote on Google

Quoted word for word, spelling and all. An ellipsis marks where a longer review was shortened; nothing else is changed.

My 18 year old daughter was in an accident and broke her spine leaving her a quadriplegic. I am beyond grateful that we found Andy and his colleagues. They bent over backwards for us and did it in a way that felt like we were dealing with old friends or family as opposed to Attorneys, I really mean that.

Shawn B. San Jose · August 2025

My brother and his friends experienced a tragic car accident where they were hit head on and that took the life of one of the boys. When we contacted Andy and his team, they explained our options and committed to helping the boys bring some light out of a dark situation... They worked so hard for the boys for 2 years to bring the best settlement possible.

Miya M. Oakland · September 2023

I first met Andy Gillin while still in the hospital following a bicycle-automobile incident... I was focused on recovering from my injury, so it was a huge relief to not have to worry about financing and legal issues. Jim and his team also worked hard to arrange for a way to cover my current and future care at minimal cost to me.

Kevin B. Hayward · May 2019

In the scheme of things, my case was relatively minor; however, Mr. Gillin accepted my case, clearly outlined the expected legal process and mapped out his strategy... I could tell his "negotiating style" was professional and respectful....all the while seeking a reasonable settlement on my behalf.

William C. Oakland · July 2023

I first used them in 2016 and was extremely satisfied with the outcome of my car accident case (Jim Larsen handled my case then)... So I knew when my husband was rear-ended in 2023 that we needed to reach out to Andy and the team again... My husband was made financially whole and compensated for his pain and suffering despite the fact that he was hit by an uninsured motorist!

Shannon R. San Jose · March 2025

Jim especially took great care to advise me through the settlement process, which went through several iterations to ensure that I received the compensation for my injuries that I deserved without dragging everyone through a trial... He is thoughtful about the human side of these cases.

Alexis A. Richmond · November 2016

Contacted GJEL back in January 2014 after being involved in a hit and run, which left me a ton of medical bills. Andy and Kristin went above and beyond helping me get back on my feet again, both physically and financially. They never kept me in the dark and always maintained clear and professional communication to let me know where my case stood at all times.

James C. Orinda · February 2016

Luke, Andy and their team were so incredibly helpful and compassionate in my case. They were also extremely knowledgeable and experienced. I felt very confident in working with them... I would even come to them first even if my case was not in their area of expertise, that is how much I trust their judgement.

Sara C. Sacramento · April 2019
 
A fair question

Should you trust personal injury lawyer reviews?

When you read reviews left by real clients, you get an idea of what it’s like to work with a particular lawyer or law firm. It provides a level of insight that you simply can’t get from reading a website or brochure.

Moreover, personal injury lawyer reviews are typically very trustworthy. These reviews are written by individuals who have firsthand experience with the lawyer or law firm in question. They provide feedback based on their personal interactions, which can help you make an informed decision when it comes to choosing an attorney.

Of course, it’s important to remember that not all reviews are created equal. It’s always a good idea to read multiple reviews from different sources to get a well-rounded view of a lawyer or law firm. You should also pay attention to any patterns or trends in the reviews. If multiple reviewers mention the same strengths or weaknesses, that’s a good indication that those qualities are genuine.

In conclusion, personal injury lawyer reviews are definitely worth considering when looking for legal representation. They can provide valuable insights into a lawyer’s expertise, professionalism, and overall demeanor. As a law firm, GJEL Accident Attorneys values client feedback and strives to provide the best possible service to our clients.
