Testimonials

If you had the great fortune to have found this law firm, please take a second to read my heartfelt review of Attorney Matthew McNicholas.

From the very beginning, I was very impressed with his professionalism and his interest in learning about me as a client. My particular situation led me over a very difficult road of approximately seven years. During that seven years, he stayed with me the entire time. I never felt as though I was alone. He never gave up on my case and he never gave up believing in me.

I know that I was not one of his most successful cases, but it's important to note that it was my most important case. Matt always treated my case that way. In the end, my reputation was restored and a settlement was reached beyond my expectations.

I would like to continue saying even more praises but instead I would like to include a message from my wife wrote to send to Matt.

On behalf of our 3 sons and myself, we would like to say thank you to Matt and Doug for your hard work, believing in my husband and not giving up on him. Thank you for restoring his character and giving him his self-worth back.

But most of all we would like to thank you for giving back the husband and father we once had years ago before this all started. For that we will always be grateful.

Sincerely,
Kristy, Nick, Tyler and Trevor

Juan Victoria and the McNicholas team deserve more than 5 Stars. Words can't describe how grateful I am to have received help from McNicholas law firm. Juan is very SHARP, calm strategic thinker with a very approachable, down to earth manner. He is so dedicated, very hard working. I could not imagine dealing with anyone else. Juan always took the time to explain and answer any questions or concerns. Matt was very involved as well, both talented attorneys with so much experience and professionalism. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart, I am happy and stress free!!

Thank You,

We like so many others never imagined being involved in a lawsuit. Essentially, we had no choice because of our child's traumatic injuries. It was a very dark place to see our son suffering and to be made to feel as if he was being put on trial by big insurance.

Our original lawyer steered us over to McNicholas & McNicholas. Juan Victoria was the senior lawyer assigned to our case and he is a powerhouse, undaunted and very skilled as well as being very down to earth. Matt McNicholas also was very involved and would be the trial lawyer if need be. He brings so much experience, poise and confidence. This kind of stuff is not for the weak of heart, it is a high stakes situation and you need professionals you can put your faith and trust into. It wasn't an easy process but working with these guys did give us a lot of peace of mind.

Luckily the case was settled out of court and we felt the settlement was very fair and feel so happy to have it behind us!! This firm is the best of the best at what they do and we will always be grateful to them for their support, knowledge, skill, and professionalism. Thank you Juan, Matt and the rest of the staff!!! What you do for the common person is so important!

I'd like to first thank this team of attorneys for making my civil claim an awesome experience. Patrick McNicholas is, in my opinion, one of the sharpest and most knowledgeable litigants I've ever encountered, You'd ask why? Kind, sincere, humble is this attorney, absolutely stellar in his meticulous practice of California law. His support staff of Michael Kent, and veteran attorney, Doug Winter, makes this firm among the top in the country. Their success stats are remarkable, do the fact check. It was my pleasure and blessing to be represented by them.

I am very happy with the progress on my case, and with McNicholas & McNicholas. I am especially happy with the outstanding job Abel Nair has done. Abel recently won a motion to dismiss my case, which has allowed the case to go forward to the next step.  Abel is a hard-working and knowledgeable attorney who does not give up. Abel was able to explain everything that was needed. I found Abel to be professional, personable and enthusiastic, and I would highly recommend him, and the firm McNicholas & McNicholas.

I have so many nice things to say about this law firm. I never thought in my life I would ever file a lawsuit against anyone. McNicholas Law made me feel like someone was finally on my side. They stayed in constant communication with me and basically handled everything. Oftentimes, I would call and catch myself just venting to either Matt McNicholas or Alyssa Schablonski. Not once did they ever shrug me off like they were busy. Towards the end when we were going to mediation, they made it easy on me. During my final mediatio,n I witnessed Matt and his attorneys handle my case with true professionalism. At times, it seemed like they knew my story better than me, (Often I would forget some details, but not McNicholas Law) which shows how much work they put forth into my case. It was amazing. Finally, I was awarded a $1,500,000.00 settlement. This completely went way over my expectations. I highly recommend McNicholas and McNicholas Law. What a class act. Thanks, McNicholas Law.

I never thought I would need an attorney for anything and I shopped around a little bit. McNicholas and McNicholas Law took my case and really helped me through some tough times. They are the most professional lawyers I have ever been around or met. They gave me so much support and their staff was awesome. It was not an easy process for me but they always seemed to be there and answer any questions I asked. They did not just leave me hanging and waiting for a return call. They recovered a $1,500,000 settlement for workplace harassment etc. They superseded all my expectations. All I can say is, they are the best in the business.

The very best in Los Angeles and beyond, all the talent and resources a client could ever dream of having in one office. I highly recommend McNicholas and McNicholas, Matt, Courtney, Doug, Abel, etc are as smart as they come!

I was employed by the LAPD for 35 years. In 2015, prior to my 2016 retirement, I reported misconduct within the LAPD. Thereafter, my superiors took an adverse employment action against me for reporting the misconduct. My union, the Los Angeles Police Protective League referred me to the law offices of McNicholas & McNicholas. I met with the lead attorney Mat McNicholas. Upon review of all facts related to the misconduct, Mat took my case. Mat and his team of attorneys presented my case to the LAPD and City of Los Angeles. Within a year, my case was settled.

If you have experienced retaliation or workplace bullying, McNicholas & McNicholas will aggressively represent people who have been fired or otherwise retaliated against for reporting and protesting their employers' illegal activities.

I encourage you to give them a call.

Spencer Y.

The McNicholas & McNicholas Law Firm has treated me more like family than a client. My life and that of my family was destroyed by my employer, the LAPD.  I did not know how to get my life and self-respect back together. Matt, Doug, Justin and the staff were amazing and comforting and provided jokes to lift me up. One can never see or understand why unfair, bad and evil things happen to us, but I see why God put Matt, Doug and Justin in my life....and it was to right an unjust wrong. Matt, Grandma Nena (my mom) prays for you and your firm every night for all the great and compassionate work that you all do.

Thank you from every angle and center of my heart.

Mr. Doug Winter and all of the lawyers and staff at McNicholas and McNicholas made the potentially gruesome task of recovering for my personal injury case feel smooth and easy. It was a very frustrating and trying time in my life and they put me at ease and took care of me without any inconvenience to my personal and professional life.

I had every confidence that I was in the right hands with McNicholas and McNicholas, and their results proved that I was and still am. I cannot thank this talented and dedicated team enough!!

Patrick McNicholas and the whole firm of McNicholas and McNicholas were absolutely superlative in directing my wife and I as we went through the tragedy we experienced. The professional assistance showed us expertise of what to expect as outcomes. We have spent the last 30 years, before the accident, negotiating and dealing with attorneys in high level real estate matters. We truly believe the firm is one of the best we have experienced. Thank you Patrick McNicholas, and all those involved at McNicholas & McNicholas.
