Commercial trucks are the largest vehicles on the roads in California. As such, they are inherently the most dangerous vehicles when it comes to the damage they can inflict in an accident. Commercial truck accident claims are inherently complicated due to the potentially high ceiling for associated damages and the difficulty often presented by determining liability for these extensive damages.

A friend of mine who was involved in a catastrophic motorcycle accident gave me Susan Handel's name when I was involved in a bad car accident. The back of my car looked like a bomb hit me. I was in so much pain that it disabled me from performing my work as a waitress. I couldn't do anything without pain. The defendant's insurance company took my recorded statement and I had no clue that they would use my own statement against me. I didn't know that a defense attorney had trained the insurance company on how to take my statement, pretend like they were my friend and cared, ask me improper questions

Susan has been my lawyer not once, but twice. Why the second time? Because she did an absolutely phenomenal job with my first case. In the first accident, I was hit as a pedestrian by a cab driver who blamed the accident on me day one. I had very bad injuries that required surgery. She made sure my surgery was performed by the top notch trauma guy at Scripps who was also fantastic. She has excellent connections with the best doctors around. She worked very hard for several years on my case and was ready to go to trial and crush the other side. The other side paid instead of facing Susan

One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had with a attorney. This woman made me do all the phone calls get all the paperwork for her and then when it was all said and done if I did not have my police report change to my favor then I did not have a case. She will not fight for you. Seemed like she only looks for easy wins.

I was hit while riding my motorcycle. I woke up from a coma 3 months later. The whole ordeal was a nightmare. From the 1st phone call Susan sent experts to the scene of the accident, collected police reports and interviewed witnesses. Susan was able to help with the entire process, sending me to experts in various medical fields to help with all my injuries. She helped consolidate all the necessary paperwork needed from the police report, vehicle insurance, medical insurance, physical therapy everything. She even put together hard copies and digital ones for me when the case was over so I would

I’ve had the best experience for such a horrible life event. I was unfortunately involved in a motorcycle accident. I knew based off feedback, that Susan was the first to call. She was professional, compassionate, and closed the case a lot soon then i thought. When the defense hears Susan is in the case they run for the hills. She demands justice.
I hope not, but if I am involved in an accident again, I know where I’m going!!!
