We were originally recommended to Gene's Law office by my insurance agent who is a close personal friend of mine. After our accident he was the first person we called due to the complex severity of the situation. Gene and his team, are excellent in communicating the process and we're very patience with us as we were dealing with not only the accident but a pregnancy and an ill family member. On that note, once we were ready to proceed Gene and his team were able to get us the best possible outcome. I have recommended Gene to my family and will continue to do so moving forward. Thank you again for all your hard work on our case. read more

Following my no-fault accident, I was advised by a lawyer pal that I'd probably only get a couple grand if I pursued anything with the at-fault driver's insurance company. After lamenting to a friend about this, I was referred to a lawyer her fiancé had used and gave glowing reviews to. The lawyer I was referred to was Gene Halavanau. In a sea of accident attorneys, Gene is a shining beacon of what lawyering and a counselor should represent. He just wrapped up a case for me that was difficult in that we were up against a notoriously difficult insurance company and (while very real and debilitating) my injuries were not easy to pinpoint and were easily refutable. Gene is an intelligent and hard working professional with a friendly and approachable disposition, but is unwavering in his call for a fair resolution. Michelle Patroni, his paralegal, is equally pleasant and also incredibly sharp with a keen attention to detail. They make a fabulous team. Gene resolved my case and far exceeded my expectations for a settlement. I felt like I was let in on an amazing secret when I was referred to Gene but I'm writing here to share my incredible discovery with you. If you are reading this, your search is over. Gene is the attorney you're looking for. read more

Halavanau Law Office - This is the accident I got to - Personal Injury Law Near Me - San Francisco, California

Gene was recommended to me by my immigration attorney. He was handling a lawsuit related to an old credit card debt. When I contacted Gene I was working with another firm from Los Angeles. With no positive results from the LA guys and many undeliverable promises I was desperately looking for a trustworthy attorney. At this point it was very hard for me to trust anyone. Gene took my case and immediately I saw a tremendous difference between his services and the LA guys. He was constantly following up with me and keeping me informed on every little change in our case. Spent many hours coaching me on the phone as a professional as well as just talked to me as a human to release my stressful state I was in (this is a first time I got suit and thus I was very stressed and scared). After Gene took care of the lawsuit I hired him to represent me with a few credit cards collection cases and very happy about my decision. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable attorney. read more

Outstanding Attorney and very knowledgeable about personal injury law. Highly recommended and well reputed among his peers.

After getting into a car accident, I decided to contact Gene because he was recommended by a family friend. I could not have been any more grateful for this family friend's suggestion, because Gene took care of my case very professionally, diligently, and with no time to waste. As a college student, getting into a car accident can turn out more expensive than usual as insurances raise premiums for people of younger age. Gene was able to ensure that none of my rates went up, and that the process could go as smoothly as possible. Also, his persistence is what makes him such a good lawyer. At first, my case was supposed to be settled at 80/20 (20% my fault), but his dedication towards his clients kept him fighting for my case until he finally proved that I was 100% not at fault and I received a much larger payout than expected. 10/10 would recommend this law office to anyone with PI or insurance issues because Gene will do everything possible to satisfy his clients. read more
