The Javid Trial Firm, PC

I recommend **avoiding** The Javid Trial Firm at all costs based on my experience with their handling of my dog-attack case. My most serious concern was the lack of communication. I often received little meaningful information until a filing or major decision was imminent. That left me trying to make consequential decisions under extreme time pressure, without adequate opportunity to understand my options. I also did not feel that the firm recognized the full value or impact of my case. I suffered serious injuries, continue to experience physical effects and PTSD, lost my high paying job that I loved (with an excellent company), and have been unable to return to similar work. Nevertheless, I repeatedly felt that my attorneys did not believe in the case or advocate for it with the conviction it deserved.  I was constantly told what the defense would argue but never what our counterpoint would be. Recommendations were frequently made without clearly explaining why events were occurring, what alternatives were available, or what the consequences of each choice could be. During one particularly important decision, I believe I was given a materially misleading explanation of the law while being pressured toward settlement. Although I ultimately consented, I did not feel fully informed, supported, or represented. A personal-injury client is already dealing with trauma, financial loss, and uncertainty. An attorney should reduce that burden—not compound it through poor communication, last-minute pressure and their desire for an easy pay day.  I'm in therapy to forgive myself for not firing this firm and securing other representation. This review reflects my personal experience and opinions. Anyone considering this firm who wants additional details about my experience may message me privately.

It’s my pleasure to write high praise of Raphael and his trial firm. We met under unfortunate circumstances after a family tragedy. We lost a home, a parent and their income, and much hope for a better future. Raphael, understanding the difficulty of the case, offered his help in a wrongful death suit. Ultimately, after many years, Raphael and his firm’s devotion to our case resulted in a positive outcome that helped my family and I regain our footing in this difficult world. A trial / lawsuit is burdensome emotionally, cognitively, and logistically; but Raphael and his team worked with us each step to ensure that we were prepared to face these challenges. That is to say that he and his team are skilled in their ability to meet their clients where they are at and explain complex topics in understandable / digestible language. He provided counsel but never attempted to override our internal sense of what direction we wanted this lawsuit to go. He worked with us to try to make our goals a reality. I personally had a challenging work schedule that often made me unavailable and at times divested from the process, yet Raphael and his team remained patient and supportive. He and his firm offer a balanced expertise in negotiation; complex law; clear, concise, and speedy communication and coaching; and genuine care for clients. I would recommend his firm to others that might benefit from his and his firm’s particular expertise.

It’s hard to put into words how grateful I am to have met Raphael and the Javid Law Firm team. From the very first phone call I was met with kindness, respect, and a genuine sense of being heard and seen. Raphael and his team devoted their time and energy to our case, answering every question and ensuring we always felt informed and comfortable. They went above and beyond every step of the way. During the most difficult moments, Raphael was there with a listening ear, thoughtful advice and calming presence. The experience was not only professional but also personal—he truly cared about us and what we were going through. While feeling represented was important, it was the small, thoughtful gestures that made the biggest difference. If you’re wondering whether it’s worth calling them, it absolutely is. I feel blessed to have connected with Raphael and his team during one of the hardest times of my life, and I’ll never forget their presence, support, and kindness—even after the case has been closed. They reminded me that good, caring people still exist even when the works feels turned upside down. Thank you Javid Law Firm and a personal thank you to Raphael Javid.
