Russell was the first person I had talked to he was very professional, polite, and understanding of my unique situation. While talking with him he listened diligently to what I had to say and was able to give me a plethora of useful information that I previously did not have and informed me of my rights regarding my situation. He went out of his way to look up information that was not provided to me by my claims adjuster. He looked up the MPN for the insurance provider and supplied me with a list of specialists within the network that fit my needs. He also took the time to research specialists that were not in the network that might be willing to take me on as a paitent since the network was failing. He told me who I needed to contact so I can get the issues resolved and provided the contact information that I needed. He was able to give me suggestions and instructions on how to proceed while I waited a few more days for my consultation with Benjamin. His concern about the situation I was in was very genuine unlike some of the other people I have talked with while trying to navigate this system. He told me that if I have any trouble figuring out what and how to file any paperwork that I needed to that I could email him. He would gladly assist me with that and any other concerns or issues that may arise. My conversation with him left me feeling that for once during this process I was heard and that I wasn't just another number I was a person. I cannot thank him enough for his compassion and willingness to help. My consultation with Benjamin was a great experience. He was also very kind and attentive to what I had to say he never cut me short or rushed me into quick incomplete answers. He provided me with a lot of information on how the system works, what steps I need to take, and the proper way to go about getting the intended results. It felt like he had a genuine concern for the troubles I was facing and helped me put together a plan to tackle these obstacles and explained in detail why it needed to be done this way. He was quick to answer any questions that I had in full detail and a way that was easy to follow and understand. He explained the qme process to me and how to utilize it as well as offered to help me with it when the need arises. My conversation with him felt real not automated. He took the time to send me an email that had all the information we had discussed what my next step should be and more following. The information he provided me is invaluable and I do not believe I would have gotten it if it wasn't for his compassion towards my plight. Ultimately he did not take my case at this point in time but told me to keep in contact with him and he would help me with anything else that I need assistance with and provide guidance moving forward. Interacting with these two really helped me not just by providing information but making me feel like I mattered. I have been getting really depressed not understanding how the system works and not being able to get assistance to navigate it. After talking with them I no longer feel at the mercy of the insurance provider I feel empowered and able to take control of the situation. Knowing that I have someone to turn to who actually cares and is willing to help me understand is a huge relief. I am beyond impressed by the level of professionalism, knowledge, and compassion for another human being that they provided for me. I would recommend them for anyone who is in need of legal guidance. I cannot thank the two of you enough for the time you took to assist me and the kindness you showed. I believe these are genuinely good people who are trustworthy and dedicated to what they do.

Of course after I was in jail and had already paid. With also having to bail myself out of jail twice, On the same case. And no prior criminal history at all. I Was being charged with a felony dui, due to the person I got in a fender with claiming she was hurt. He did no investigating and collected no information against the person who claimed they were injured. Eventhough I told him she attended a rock concert and it was all over online, 3 days after this fender bender occurred. Then she claimed to be seriously injured. I, MYSELF, went on social media and did MY OWN investigation to find out her claims were false and print out all the information and proof I could find to bring to court with me. I honestly couldn't believe I had to present those to him, instead of him doing his job and finding that information out. Or maybe getting me out of jail for the second time I was booked. He was 30 mins late to my court date too, to top it off. He had literally no clue what was going on the entire time and had to "speak to other attorneys with more experience handling dui cases". Just all around did absolutely nothing for me in the case and didn't even offer maybe to return half my money for him failing to really do anything at all but make me look stupid. I did more than he did and that's not why I hired him. That's very unfair and to charge someone for services you know you failed at, or were still learning and failed to help. In that case, just admit that. I Very very very highly recommend you DO NOT hire him. If he maybe reached out to make it right, I'd probably have better feelings about him as a person in general. As of now I feel he robbed me of $10,000 and honestly if anything caused me more hassle and somehow couldn't keep me from being placed in custody a second time on a dui charge! All in all, in the end thanks to my research, proving the lady lied and proving that I was not in fact guilty of what I was accused of (no thanks to him at all). I was able to get it finally figured out 2 bail bonds later. And a wholesome of workdays, probation and other little things. In reality, I wish I would've just represented myself. I mean I pretty much did anyways.

Max's son, Barrick, is the one who assisted me and his concern for our family's well being and his motivation to make us whole again was clear from the very beginning. I called several law offices and told them our tragic story, and Barrick was by far the most genuine and caring lawyer. He was quick to discuss the technical and legal matters that could impede the case, and he (along with his assistant, Misty), immediately started working on a plan for us. I felt like Barrick really went the extra mile for us. In the end, we didn't have enough evidence to put the case together for wrongful death, but Barrick made sure we understood why and what we could do next. He is a true professional and works hard for people. I would recommend Barrick and the Max G Arnold law office in Redding, CA if you need legal help. They are very thorough and will really stick with you to the end, even if you don't go to trial.

So, I don't have a lot of love for attorneys. Most of them strike me as cutthroat, distant,…read morenarcissistic sharks who think studying the law entitles them to an arrogance the size of their law school debts. Throw in the fact I'm from a pretty economically challenged background and most attorneys waste more money on booze in a month than I make in ten years, it is really difficult to must a lot of respect for them. When someone close to me retained these law offices for their personal injury suit, I had no illusions that things would be different. However, I would soon eat my words. Whereas I believed that Max and his associate attorneys would be the epitome of privilege, they were anything but. Max set my loved one on an immediately treatment plan and there were weekly calls from his secretarial staff, asking how things were going and how the pain was. Even better, despite the poor credit, he was able to negotiate liens with all of the medical providers, so the treatment professionals weren't constantly hounding them for payment. When the case was finally litigated successfully, it was all thanks to the hard work of Max. I can't say enough positive things about his extremely professional staff, his in-depth understanding of the law and ultimately his total dedication to my loved one. I was initially apprehensive, because there really isn't a lot on the Internet about this guy, but his picture is on the back of the phone book. I don't know what that costs, but I don't imagine that it's particularly cheap, so eventually we reasoned he must have some kind of success to draw on. Since Yelp is our generation's word-of-mouth, I thought I'd hop on here and give Max some free publicity. If you want a decent attorney who will make sure to put their needs ahead of yours, pick any random name for a Rolodex and hope you don't drown in attorney's fees. But if you want the best and most fair attorney in the Bay Area who will put your needs first, I cannot stress this enough: call Max.
