Mike was a great asset to me and my case. He and his staff were on top of the details of my case and were always going the extra mile for me. I knew I could trust their integrity, abilities and experience. I appreciate all that was brought to the table and the outcome of my case was more than I expected! Thank you Mike and your staff for all that you did! If you are in need of someone who will be on your side, Mike is your guy!

I was referred to Michael through a friend. I found Mike to be extremely detailed, confident, thorough, and responsive. My accident involved navigating a complex stream of insurances as Medicare and my secondary insurance. He handled it all, and I was always able to refer the requests from these insurances to him for processing, which was a major relief for me. In the end, he negotiated a settlement that I never believed I could receive, and I am very grateful for his knowledgeable abilities in his field.

I was involved in a horrific accident several years ago and a friend recommended Michael Hosterman. I had never used an attorney before in a lawsuit so this was new to me. I couldn't have been more relieved, assured, and confident in Michael. Very personable, ethical, and thorough. He explained the process and ran with the case. My settlement was more than what I could have expected from the start.

My chiropractor recommended Mike to me after I was in car accident and I am so grateful he did. Mike is a great lawyer - he was easy to talk to, very friendly, and explained things very well. He never left me in the dark on anything. He explained what was going to happen next, what we could expect and how we would handle it. He gave me great advice and really stood up for me and provided so much support during my case. His assistant Cristy is equally as amazing. She is so nice, always responds to me questions and concerns and gets things done quickly. I definitely recommend Mike to anyone who needs

Mike is a great attorney who always is willing to put in the work and explain everything to you every step of the way. I consulted with him about a car accident and he provided very useful information and recommended that I just pursue it myself instead of having him represent me. That epitomizes the trust and integrity that you can count on when he is your attorney.

After a detailed search to look for a Personal Injury Attorney I choose this Law office because of their reviews and comments of being honest. I called them on 9/6/17 and left a message. I got no returned call. I then used their contact email on their website and sent a message on 9/10/2017. Michael's assistant call me back on 9/13/2017. She told me that Michael was on vacation and asked details of my case and she would review them with him to decide if he would take the case. After no returned call a friend left another message for me on 9/19/2017. His assistant called me on 9/20/2017 to

Michael represented me when I had a motorcycle accident. Hiring him was a smart move. He listened carefully to all of my concerns and explained all of my options. I always felt informed and his personal integrity was evident throughout the process. He made sure that my physical well-being and personal property was whole and provided great advice that only comes with experience. If you are looking for a personal injury lawyer (especially fellow riders) get Michael to represent you! You'll be very pleased you did.

Very helpful person. Even though my case was too small to be handled by him, he offered me great advice over the initial phone call on how to proceed in my car accident case. He was upfront about the financial aspects of my "small claims" accident. He was the best one among the 3 lawyer offices i called (in east bay), to see if anyone would take my case.

Back in 2004 I was a passenger in a car accident where the airbag broke my arm in 3 places and put my wrist out of place. We were on highway 17 when the car in front of us going about 70mph decided to completely stop on the freeway which made the driver of the car I was in brake and slide into the car in front of us and then the car behind us mashed into us. The car in front of us decided to give us their info and take off before the cops arrived and shortly after the car behind us did the same thing - which was ridiculous! I was only a minor at the time and was completely lost in what to do legally

After being in a car accident and trying to handle everything myself I quickly learned that I needed the help of a lawyer. Mike took my case and worked with me to get a fair settlement. It took quite awhile, but we prevailed. If I didn't have Mike on my side I'm sure my settlement would not have been close to what I received. If you need a personal injury attorney, I would recommend Mike Hosterman.

After calling around and around to so many law offices, we gave them a call. Would you believe after no other law offices wanted our case, I almost gave up. Mike took our case and fought for us diligently, he won us the case!!!!!!!!!!! The insurance company, State Farm did not want to give us much before we had gotten an attorney, after Mike stepped in and fought for us, we got 10 times in our pocket after all fees. Mike is a stand up person and knows his stuff. You won't be disappointed.
