I've biked the same way for 20+ years and made left turns next to cars all the time. And then one day I was rear-ended while I was preparing to make that same left turn. It's scary that I have no recollection of what happened, one minute I was looking at the green left turn light, the next, I was sideways with my helmet skidding across the asphalt. California CVC 21208 basically states that on a roadway with a bike lane, bicyclists traveling slower than traffic must use the bike lane EXCEPT when making a left turn... With that said, the police report put me at fault!?!?! I was rear ended riding a bike by a car! I didn't want to legally pursue anyone if it was indeed just an accident, but I have no idea if the driver was on his phone, not paying attention or what, plus he left me with a broken leg and medical bill was north of $130K and I knew my medical insurance would only cover so much. Scott Corwin was referred to me by my cousin-in-law who had great results when she was hit by a car many years ago. Speaking to Mr. Corwin for the first time, I can tell he was result driven and it was great to know that he operate on a contingency basis, so no legal fee unless there was a settlement. Despite the police report's result, Scott used his years of knowledge and experience and was able to get a settlement from the other party's insurance that covered majority of my medical responsibilities. Julie Harbeson (his legal assistant) was also instrumental in assisting with all the information that the other parties requested as I was instructed to "talk to no one". Scott has one goal and that is to get you financial compensation for the pain and bills that the other person left you with. If you are looking for a lawyer who checks in on your recovery and have small talk from time to time, look elsewhere or better yet, ask yourself what really matters as you look in the mirror at your broken body part/s. read more

Attorney Scott J. Corwin did a great job in getting me justice in my personal injury case! I was hit by a car when crossing the street, and was left with a bad injury to my knee. Scott handled things with the insurance companies, dealt with all the trouble, and secured a great settlement for me to compensate for the injuries I suffered at the hands of a reckless driver. He's got lots of experience in the industry, so if you've got a personal injury case, Scott's the guy to call to help you get your justice. read more

I am so glad I went with Scott J Corwin Law office for the auto accident I was in recently. The compassion, understanding & knowledge that I was met with was absolutely amazing. I definitely recommend anyone who is looking for a personal injury attorney, to contact their office. Everything was quickly & seamlessly handled. I am so grateful for Scott & Julie, his office administrator. They have been very friendly, professional & so helpful to me throughout the entire process. read more

It's never a positive milestone in your life when you find yourself searching for legal representation. In my case, I was riding my bike and got hit by a car which left me in need of considerable medical attention. Fortunately, my wife had worked with Scott in the past and stated that he was simply the best. After our first interaction I could certainly verify my wife's testimony. Scott is a no bull-shit kind of guy. He is extremely direct, punctual, articulate and goal oriented. If you are searching for an attorney that is going to give you a back massage, go elsewhere. I came to Scott for results and that is exactly what he delivered. I have 100% confidence that I would not be walking away with this same level of physical and financial health had I not retained Scott. One additional note. In spite of his direct communication methods, I like to think we broke the ice a bit. Scott may seem cut-and-dry at times but you can be certain he truly cares about your well-being and achieving you the best possible result. 100% satisfied. I will be consulting Scott for any and all accident related issues in the future. read more

I got rear ended at a stoplight by a hit and run driver. Scott was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't be happier. Scott is straightforward, communicative, and efficient. He and his team kept me updated every step of the way. He was very informative and answered all my questions. He made the entire process stress free and he got a very good settlement quickly. He exceeded all expectations and I will recommend him to be your attorney. read more

Let me start off by saying how extremely grateful I am with Scott J. Corwin and Julie Harbeson. They helped me through one of the toughest times in my life all while during a pandemic! They have been extremely patient with me, learning a lot about the process through the year(s) and have always been around to help answer questions and concerns. This was a very stressful time for me and no matter what Scott and Julie have always been professional and empathetic to my situation. They made me feel valued, care for, and showed me the results I was looking for in my case. Look no further, Scott J. Corwin and his team are true fighters, driven, and very professional! If you want positive results this is the right attorney for you! Without a doubt, the legal counsel and customer service I received was beyond exceptional!!

I highly recommend Him without hesitation. Thank you Scott & Julie for everything you've done for me! read more

I have had the pleasure of being Scott's client more than once in the last couple of decades and every time I feel like I am in good hands. I just had the unfortunate experience of being a passenger in a ride share accident and, as good as I know he is, he exceeded my expectations all over again. Thanks Scott!!! read more

I've had the bad luck to need a personal injury attorney three times in the last 20 years - and the good luck to know Scott Corwin, so I'm taking some time to tell you about my experiences. Dealing with the aftermath of an accident can be a nightmare: stressful, emotional, and when I had to deal with it on my own once, I found it humiliating. In all three of my cases with Scott, including one that took more than a year to settle because my injuries were complicated and required neck surgery, Scott represented me competently, diligently, and with integrity. He's well known, successful and respected in his field; experienced at taking a case to trial if needed, and was most certainly capable and willing to handle my simpler cases with ease confidence. He was honest with me, and I learned quickly to trust his judgment and expertise. He won fair and quite generous settlements for me--as his record shows he does for his clients. He was patient, kind and thorough as he prepared me for arbitration required for one of my cases, and on another occasion, where little input from me was needed, he was only visible when necessary. He's an excellent communicator; I received regular messages keeping me apprised of details while shielding me from the discomfort of being pushed aside or harassed by insurance agents. He did a great job of helping me find excellent medical providers, and in keeping track of all the fiddly and frustrating details so I didn't have to. He is easy to reach, always gets back to me promptly, and his assistant, Julie, is also amazing: kind, patient, detail oriented, and responsive, which really matters in a busy firm. I always felt valued and well cared for. You should be warned that he's tenacious--which is a quality I value in a lawyer. Honestly, it's nice to feel protected by an expert, and I'm grateful to Scott for the integrity, competancy and tenacity with which he represented my cases, and the cases of several friends and family members I've confidently recommended to him. read more

Scott is a FANTASTIC lawyer. I began working with him after I was hit by a car last year and Scott jumped in immediately taking care of all my paperwork, all the voicemail messages I had gotten and getting me in to see the right doctors. Throughout the entire process, Scott was very communicative about my case and always accessible and responsive. He's direct, will tell you like it is and won't bullshit you-- something that I learned along the way is EXACTLY what you need in a PI case. I would absolutely recommend Scott for any PI case and am so happy about the result of my case. read more

Both Scott and Julie did an amazing and quick job of closing our accident case.. We highly recommend them to help you and your family get the best legal assistance read more

Scott brought me justice! I cannot thank him and his staff enough. Why I like Scott: He is direct, clear when communicating and efficient. While I was able to live my life, Scott was behind the scenes doing his job to get me the money I deserved. He was able to double the initial offer from the other driver's insurance. His staff is friendly and quick- working together was easy. Scott is professional, works around the clock, is surrounded by good people, and does not waste your time. He did his job so I could do mine. I would come back to Scott over and over again. read more

My daughter and I were in a major traffic accident. Scott was recommended to me by a family member. He is not the cute and cuddly tv lawyer like People's Court. Scott Corwin is a kick-ass, no holds bar, get the job done attorney. We were in a new car in two weeks, treating with doctors within days and recovered with a sizeable settlement in a few months. YEP! SCOTT IS THAT GOOD! Big thanks to Julie & Taylor you ladies are awesome. read more

My wife and I were victims of road rage. Driver rear-ended us, not once, not twice, but three times to get us out of the HOV lane. We suffered property damage and physical injuries. In our search for representation, my wife came across Scott J. Corwin on line. My wife and I discussed our options and decided to go with Scott based on his experience. After our preliminary consultation Scott and his team moved quickly to get us set up with the proper medical treatment and also moved quickly to get our vehicle repair and roadworthy again. Within six months, Scott got us a generous settlement but more importantly my wife and I received the therapy we needed to recover from our injuries. I hope we never experience such a traumatic course of events again, if we ever do, our first phone call will be to Scott and his legal team. Thanks Scott! read more

I did not end up moving forward with getting any attorney due to my personal situation, but I have to say I am BLOWN AWAY by the kindness, professionalism, and efficiency of Julie H., the office administrator. She was extremely articulate and knowledgeable. I have been so stressed and frazzled since my crash and dealing with all the logistics has been a nightmare, but Julie took the time to put me at ease and give me thoughtful advice even though I wasn't even a client of the law firm yet. It give me good faith in this practice. Thank you so much Julie!! read more

This was my first time needing a attorney and Scott made it easy the whole way. The process was stress free all my doctors appointments were set up for me and at no time I was ask for any money up front. Scott set all the expectations and everything went as planned Very thankful for his professionalism and speedy response read more

I am not one to write reviews but after an unfortunate car accident, I am so glad I called Scott Corwin. I was in a dispute where the other driver lied about the fault of the accident and without Scott's expertise and advocacy, I would have been at the mercy of the insurance companies. Scott and his assistant, Julie, were always responsive and honest about my case. I could not have been happier with the results. No one wishes to get into a car accident but if it happens, you must call Scott Corwin! read more

On February15, 2022, my car was rear ended while I was stopped on the freeway due to an accident in front of me. I called Mr. Corwin office after I called the insurance company and within few hours, Mr. Corwin had all the necessary information. Throughout the whole process he was always courteous and professional and often checking on my health as was going through therapy. He worked with the insurance company ensuring that I get the proper car repairs in a timely fashion. For 5 months he worked diligently with the insurance companies, and I received a compensation much more than I expected. I know that he worked very hard with the insurance companies to complete the compensation process and I am very thankful to him. I will recommend him to all my friends if God forbid any of them would be involved in an accident. He represents us and he fights very hard on our behalf. Once again, thank you Mr. Corwin. read more

Really disappointing. Didn't listen to me at all; once he realized that I wasn't going in for surgery wrote me off and useless and not likely to bring him a giant paycheck, and he just phoned it in from there, not even caring that I wasn't getting my actual medical expenses covered. I'm still paying for physical therapy bills. It's been two years and my back still hurts but there's no compensation for the fact that I still refill a script for muscle relaxers and still have to go to physical therapy after long car or plane rides. Spoke to two other lawyers I met later and realized I could've done a lot better. Hell, I could've done better advocating for myself! At least then my medical bills would've been covered! I didn't need to make a giant "pain-and-suffering" profit. Just my actual expenses would've been nice! Totally useless. Only interested in advocating for you if you need surgery and can garner him a substantial financial reward. I wish he's declined my case once he realized I wasn't going to bring him a paycheck instead of effing things up with the insurance company by filing these half-assed claims that didn't actually summarize the full scope of my needed treatment. He sent me to his doctor, and HIS doctor didn't recommend physical therapy because he's a "surgery or you're not worth my time" doctor. And then Corwin told me to not submit MY doctor's prescription for physical therapy and other treatments because it would nullify my case with the insurance company. I don't know what he thought he was protecting. I got nothing from the insurance company in terms of my actual medical treatment and bills. They concluded I had soft-tissue damage, which I do. But without the bills and prescriptions for managing the pain of soft-tissue damage, I couldn't get any of my physical therapy covered. I wish he'd just dropped my case and told me it wasn't worth his time. read more

My car got totaled last year and he had help us get maximum settlement. If you want excellent result he is your guy.

Scott and his team were amazing. When I got into my motorcycle accident I was nervous and shaken and unsure about what to do. Him and his team guided me in the right direction and made sure I had everything I needed through the process. They reached an agreement with insurance in a timely manner and completely exceeded my expectations. If you or someone you know ever needs assistance after an accident do not hesitate to contact Scott. I will forever be grateful to Scott J. Corwin and his fantastic team! read more

When you are involved in an accident and left with a serious injury, your obviously distracted first and foremost by the pain and trauma of the injury and the abundance of inconveniences, and the cumulative logistic havoc dealing with it plays in your immediate life. Just dealing with your injury by itself is a full time job, that feels at times like it is beyond you, and when you are consumed and distracted with physical discomfort, and constantly trying to figure out how to get your day to day life back on track in the million little different ways it has to be different now - you have zero time or energy to negotiate the complexities of dealing with the whole legal/insurance side of protecting your rights in the aftermath, or having things made right for you financially. Unfortunately, the brutal truth is - without that last part happening - you will never actually be able to get your life back on track. The reason I explain it like this - is so that you understand how important it is when all that is going on - to have someone you can completely trust working to get your case resolved for you - while you get on with the business of getting well, and getting your life in order. You need a guard at the door so you can rest, a tireless, proactive advocate who you can have faith is relentlessly in pursuit of resolving things as quickly as possible in your best interest - and in that regard, you can do no better than putting your faith in Scott. There are allot of attorneys who will come out of the woodwork after an accident charming and promising you all kinds of miraculous resolutions that seem very tempting to engage, but what you really need isn't someone to hold your hand and have make you promises - what you do need is someone solid, who will tell it like it is, has a proven track record, and is tough enough to go head to head with the insurance system designed to make you as the victim feel like the one at fault, and get the job done. Obviously if you are reading this review you are looking for a lawyer, nobody wants to need an attorney, and hiring an attorney is a big deal, so in writing this review I am hoping to help whoever is in the situation i was in make a decision that they can later on be glad they made. When I had my accident I didn't want to engage an attorney, the lady seemed nice enough and said she felt really awful, admitted it was her fault and said she would take care of anything i needed. That story changed really fast once the reality of my injuries was made clear - and when I called Scott I was already in a really awful position. Scott put my mind at ease by taking every thing from there and taking it over the next few months from a situation where I was going to be the one bearing the burden of another persons carelessness, into a situation where my rights were protected and I was able to get medical care I needed to get my life back together. That was something that didn't even seem remotely possible before i engaged his services. Aside from whatever dollar value you place on that - what I got is something money can't buy, I am a trainer and a fit, very active person - I got to keep my job, and have the operation I need to get healthy enough to enjoy my life and work again, I got peace of mind to sleep and to heal - I got my life back. I don't hesitate in giving credit to Scott for making that happen for me, so i don't hesitate in recommending him to you. read more

After being struck by an SUV while riding my bicycle, being taken away in an ambulance and spending time in the emergency room, I was nervous about my recovery, the bills that would pile up and how I would manage dealing with the motorists insurance company. I was referred to Scott Corwin by a friend-of-a-friend and after reviewing his website and online reviews I decided to pick up the phone and call. Scott saw me that evening, staying late in the office to meet with me personally and discuss the accident, my trajectory for physical recovery and the legal aspects of my case. He made no promises aside from his personal commitment to handling my case while I focus on recovery. I appreciated his candor, the right balance of aggressiveness and honesty alongside his dedication to my understanding and expectations of the overall recovery and legal process. I know he works around the clock for his clients because he would often send or respond to my emails late into the night or early in the morning. He would always return my calls and communicate efficiently. He respected my time while ensuring that progress was being made both with my physical recovery and with regards to the case. After my recovery process, he produced results for my case that far exceeded my expectations. I would be eager and proud to recommend him to anyone in the unfortunate and stressful aftermath of an accident. Thank you Scott! read more

Exceptional lawyer. No BS here people. I called him first thing after I had my accident and it was the best move I made because Corwin not only answered all my questions and concerns but also kept me informed with every new turn of the case. In my auto accident, I had been rear ended violently and I felt pain immediately. Corwin had me go to a trusted doctor that helped me not only through the physical therapy I needed, but also really put me on the road to recovery. I particularly recommend this attorney to women who are involved in personal injury accidents. HE LISTENS! Hire the guy, the pay back will be way worth your while and trust. I was exceptionally happy with my settlement and how hard he AND his office worked on my case. read more

I was rear ended in an accident by a semi-truck which resulted in my car needed repairs as well as my back. I was referred to Scott Corwin by my mom who looked online at different options. I decided to go with Scott Corwin based on the excellent reviews his office has received and I'm glad I did. He and his team are very direct in making sure their clients receive the support they need following an accident. Almost instantly I was set up with the right doctors and healthcare professionals to treat my injuries. He kept an open line of communication with me and the medical team and made me feel like I was his only client. With Scott Corwin representing me, I knew I didn't have to worry about anything outside of getting better. He's a no nonsense type of lawyer. Direct and to the point which is the type of person you would want advocating for you in a situation like mine. I'd recommend him to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney. read more

Scott is your guy look no further. He came highly recommended by a friend that had a major motorcycle accident. From that trust I signed with Scott after my visit and never was disappointed. Tell Scott what happened sign paperwork and know that he is getting it done. After a difficult and stressful event it's nice to have a guy that takes control and executes. He is not the type of lawyer you need to verify progress with. Let the man work and keep the pressure off he will get it done. And at a higher level than anyone in the business. If you are fortunate enough that Scott takes your case hand him the keys and let him drive you to the end game. read more

I was certainly not expecting to be seriously injured while out for a ten-mile run, until a left-turning Escalade rammed into me just past mile four, while I was halfway across the street. The collision kept me off the roads for three and a half months while I waited to heal. Though nothing was broken, thankfully, Mr. Corwin took my situation seriously and made sure I was properly examined and treated by the right specialists and therapists (not a joker in the bunch) so I could recover my ability to run, an activity that is very dear to me. Meanwhile Scott and his office worked with me to accumulate all expenses and kept track of my recovery. Soon after I felt relatively normal again and was close to catching up with my old self, I was signing papers for a settlement amount that far exceeded anything I could have expected, even after paying the fees and costs. In the end, it's the result that matters. If your lawyer takes you and your situation seriously, your lawyer will fight for you seriously and get you serious results. I believe that Mr. Corwin is that kind of attorney. read more

I was referred to Scott by a friend after I was involved in a pretty significant accident. I met with Scott and his assistant in their offices shortly after contacting him.

He got a settlement in two weeks and they received a check two months after the accident. I highly recommend Scott Corwin as your personal injury lawyer. read more

I was in a hit and run motorcycle accident and unfortunately hired an incompetent lawyer who could not settle my case. I decided to call Scott J. Corwin when I saw his great reviews online, and he came in and handled my case quickly and professionally. He returned every email and call, and the communication was fantastic. I will tell you, when dealing with something traumatic like a motorcycle accident, you want your lawyer to be the least of your worries.

After tripping in a parking lot and breaking my ankle, I got in contact with Scott right away. He was thorough, and on top of everything and got me a settlement that was more than fair. Scott was always responsive and caring whenever I called. Not only did he get me a great settlement but he made me feel comfortable throughout the process, which was a little bit nerve wracking for me. The doctors that Scott recommended were excellent and did a terrific job in taking care of my injuries. I have recommended him to several friends and family members since my case, and everyone who has used him has been extremely satisfied with his services. I definitely recommend him for any personal injury cases. read more

I have to say Scott Corwin has exceed my expectations in working with him. I was referred to him from a co-worker. He was one of many personally referred to me but I decided to go with him because he didn't try to promise me the moon. Instead, he laid out the options and possibles available. In the end, I ended up with more than I expected. Thank you Scott and your team for representing me and helping in times of need. read more

I was rear ended by a distracted driver last year in LA, that same evening I went home and Googled best personal injury attorney in LA, I found Scott.

An absolutely incredible lawyer. I was in a car accident a few months ago and was under so much stress. I was not in a place to be dealing with paper work and car insurance companies. However, a friend of mine gave me Mr. Corwin's number and suggested I see him for a consultation. This law firm really made my life significantly easier. All I had to do was give them some information and they handled everything for me. They sent me to a near by chiropractor who helped a lot with my whip lash. Another great thing was I didn't have to worry about medical bills because the law office handled that as well. They kept me updated on everything that was going on and was very professional every step of the way. Julie, the secretary there, is amazing. She answered every question I had and made the process very smooth. She's the perfect combination of professional and caring. I HIGHLY suggest anyone in an accident to contact Scott Corwin. He really helped me during a stressful time of my life. read more

Following a car accident in which the other driver ran a stop sign and rammed into my car at full speed, Scott and his team did a phenomenal job of ensuring that I got the medical coverage I needed for my personal wrist injury as well as handled all communications with the insurance company, which made my life much easier. Going above and beyond his role, Scott even helped me with non-medical details of the case such as quickly getting me into a rental car and ensuring that my car was fixed by a top-notch garage. Just a few months following my accident, Scott managed to negotiate an excellent settlement for me that was more than 3X the other party's initial offer and more than 13X medical fees - an incredible feat in an industry where average settlements tend to be around 3X medical fees. read more
