I was hurt at the home of a "friend" in Hermosa Beach who refused to even tell me or my family if he had insurance to cover my hospital bill. I hired the Walch Law Office to represent me. They immediately took action, forced the responsible party to provide his insurance information, and proceeded to settle my case for over two million dollars ($2,000,000.00). This was not an easy case. First, my "friend’s" insurance company claimed I was partially at fault and second because I was young and just started some new businesses, they claimed my losses were too "speculative.” The insurance company even hired doctors to try to show that my injuries were now minor and should not prevent me from doing things that I could not do. I came to understand that is a typical unfair tactic of many insurance companies. Fortunately for me, my attorneys were not deterred and worked with me for months to gather, review and present the evidence necessary to prove I was not at fault and to show that even though my businesses were new and had not yet produced any profits, that my damages were very real and I was entitled to fair compensation. My attorneys even hired experts, including excellent doctors, to work with us to help prove my claim. I was thrilled with not only the excellent and detailed work and, of course, the incredible result but also with the understanding, compassion and constant communication by the Walch office. I most sincerely give it my very highest recommendation.

Dear Gary, I want to thank you for your excellent legal advice, hard work and terrific settlement. As you know, I was an insurance claims adjuster, hurt on the job (slip & fall accident at work in El Segundo, L.A.) and when the case I was adjusting against your law office settled, because I was so impressed with your work, I hired you to handle my own slip and fall injury case. Although I was a very experienced claims adjuster and willing to settle my case for only about $8,000, the other insurer would only offer $5,000. I consulted you, you conducted investigation and discovery, and, with your excellent legal advice, in addition to my workers compensation benefits you were able to settle my case for $250,000.00 new money! My wife and I still can’t believe I was willing to settle for about $8000 when you recovered $250,000.00 plus my workers comp. I shall always remember you and what you did for us. I give your firm my very highest personal recommendation and am even happy to speak to any prospective clients. Thank you again for the incredible result!

When my foot was injured 3 years ago at a restaurant I had no idea that a serious condition known as "Complex Regional Pain Syndrome" would develop. My condition caused daily pain & discomfort, requiring lots of medical care, physical therapy & treatments but was extremely difficult to prove as a case. My main concern was getting the medical attention I needed while trusting an attorney to secure all my medical costs and future medical treatments. My family has used your firm before with great success so felt confident that it would be a wise decision to do the same and I am very glad I did. I am happy to report that your law firm just did that and more. I am so thankful and appreciative of all the time, frequent updates, hard work and especially the terrific result your law firm obtained for me. Everyone was always very helpful and courteous. My calls were either taken right away or always quickly responded to, as were my e-mails. I give your law offices my very best recommendation and shall happily refer anyone who needs a personal injury lawyer to you.

Dear Robert, I am so happy with you and your entire law firm. My accident was in February. I hired you in May and just one month later in June you settled my accident case for over $100,000.00. Prior to retaining your personal injury law office, I consulted another attorney who said he would look into it for me. At that time I did not even know the last name of the other person who caused this accident or whether he even had any insurance. There was no police report, either. After about a month I never heard back from the other lawyer so I hired your law firm. I am so happy I did. You hired a professional investigator and got immediate results. You also kept in constant communication with me, explained what I should do and not do, and I felt we worked extremely well together in an excellent partnership to achieve this excellent and fast settlement in just one month! Thank you again so much and I shall happily recommend you to anyone who needs an injury or accident lawyer.

Sincerely,

My pinky finger suffered a bad injury as a result of a bite from a neighbor's pittbull. The owners of the pittbull refused to pay my medical expenses so I hired Walch Law. The insurance company for the dog owner tried to argue that my injury was not bad, that I assumed the risk by trying to help free my dog from the pittbull attack, and even argued that my dog may have caused my injury. Robert Walch, as well as his excellent legal team, fought very hard for me and Robert settled my case for over $200,000.00. I give the Walch Law Firm my highest recommendation.

The Walch Law Office saved me. I had 2 prior attorneys for about a year who did nothing to help me. They would not even talk to me when I called. I could only talk to a legal assistant who said the attorney would call me back, but never did. One attorney even dropped my case. The other party's insurance company denied my claim.

My cousin recommended the Law Offices of Gary K. Walch, A Law Corporation. I contacted the Walch Law Firm and that was the best decision I ever made.

They provided excellent service, explained everything to me and answered all my questions. I never had any problem reaching them or getting a return call or email. They worked so hard and quickly settled my case for the total insurance coverage of $100,000.00. They reduced liens against my case, even reducing Medi-Cal, so I actually received about 65% of the total settlement!

I love everyone at the Walch Law Corporation and give them my top 5 star rating and recommendation.

I cannot thank you enough or say how much I appreciate what your firm did for me.

During surgery I was burned. My surgeon blamed the nurse who worked for the hospital and the hospital claimed it happened after I left the hospital even though the type of burn I suffered was exactly the type that can happen in surgery when someone is negligent. In other words, no one took responsibility, which I understand is typical in medical malpractice cases, and there was no settlement offer.

I hired the Walch law firm to represent me. After hiring and consulting experts to prove my case, my attorneys negotiated an excellent settlement for me at mediation. The defendants insisted the high amount be kept confidential. I also was extremely pleased with the personal attention given by both Mr. Walch and his legal assistant. I highly recommend the Walch Law Corporation for personal injury and medical malpractice cases!

Dear Robert,

I just want you to know how thrilled I am with both the excellent result and your law firm. Your staff and you worked very hard for me, kept me informed, promptly responded to my requests and I am very happy. When I was injured in the supermarket, I didn’t know what to expect. Then to settle for over $100,000.00 is such a great result and to get this over with is just so wonderful. I am truly thankful and recommend you to anyone with a personal injury case.

I was badly burned at a super market in Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, Calif. The burn was very painful, leaving a permanent scar. The market said it was not its fault, refused to take responsibility and denied my claim.

I hired the Walch Law Office to represent me. I worked closely with both Robert Walch and Gary Walch. They worked very hard on this difficult claim, obtained the proof they needed, and settled my case without going to court. I really did not want to go to court and was so happy they could settle my case without any court involvement.

I am extremely happy with the excellent settlement amount, and also the kind personal attention given me by everyone at their firm. They really care and even responded the same night to my evening emails! I feel they are the very best. I recommend them to my friends and would not go to any other personal injury attorney!

Dear Robert,

Thank you so much for your help and the fantastic recovery.

I fell on some steps in Calabasas and due to my shock and pain did not even know what caused my fall. I tried to get my medical bills paid, but the insurance company denied my claim. I needed help so a friend recommended the Walch Law Corporation. I hired your law firm and am so glad that I did. Your lawyers knew exactly what to do, starting with hiring an expert to inspect the steps where I fell. Defects in the design and code violations were found which were the cause of my fall and injuries. I then let you do the rest. A few months later, after you convinced the other party’s insurer to accept liability, my case was fully settled. In just a few months we went from a denied claim to an excellent settlement! Your staff and you really put a lot of time and thought into winning my case and I want you to know how much I appreciate it. I am thrilled with the result and give you my best recommendation!

Thank you again,

Dear Gary, I just want to thank you for working so hard on my case! I know at times we were a bit difficult, but you did a great job. I thank you and your son for good results. I will pass your number on to any one that I run across who may need a PI attorney! I send you warm regards,

Our son was injured when he fell out of an inflatable slide that toppled over. While trying to save my children, who were at the top of the tall slide, I was struck by the slide and ended up losing consciousness. We retained the Walch Law Corp., as they came highly recommended from our relatives.

Their office was professional, helpful, and responsive. They assisted us in finding medical providers, who would work on a lien with no up front cost to us, right after the accident. Later, they assisted us in obtaining proof of all injuries and time missed from work. We are happy to say that they managed to settle the case for more than we had expected. We are very satisfied with their firm and would highly recommend them for an injury accident case.

Thanks,

Thank you so much for the wonderful job and result on our injury case!

My daughter and I were injured when a race horse lost its rider and went into the stands. Although we clearly did nothing wrong, everyone else denied responsibility. My attorney, Gary Walch, and his staff, did an excellent job, from immediately inspecting the race track scene to helping us get medical care to settling our case at mediation. The result was so good that the defendant actually requested it be kept confidential.

Thank you for keeping us informed and working so hard to get us an excellent result. We always recommend your law firm for personal injury and accident cases!

Gary & Robert, I want to thank you so much for the excellent result on a very difficult case. My elderly mother went to her HMO in Woodland Hills with a cold. Other than her cold, with major breathing problems from that cold, she was in good health. Although elderly with trouble breathing, she was not hospitalized or even given a chest X-Ray or EKG. She was told she would get better soon and sent home. Shockingly, she died later that evening. We believe had she received better care she would have survived. After all, even her doctors said it was just a cold and she should get better soon. We still don't understand why they would not even do a chest X-ray or EKG for an elderly person with a cold with breathing problems? We tried to settle, but the HMO said its care was proper, she was elderly, and its adjuster denied any responsibility and refused to settle. Apparently, the HMO wanted us to believe that it was just a coincidence that my mother, with major breathing problems, was told she would be fine but just happened to pass a few hours later? We retained the Walch Law Office. The HMO retained a big defense firm who seemed to have an unlimited budget to hire its own medical experts to fight us every step of the way. The HMO even filed a motion to dismiss our case, called a Motion for Summary Judgment, with a declaration from its medical expert stating the medical care was proper and it did not cause her death, but fortunately its motion did not succeed. You obtained copies of all medical records, carefully reviewed the case, retained and consulted with two medical experts of our own, successfully opposed the HMOs motion and were able to convince it to settle. The HMO insisted the terms be kept confidential so I won’t go into them now. I am a very busy doctor and, for that reason, not the easiest client, so I really want to thank you for keeping me informed, scheduling things for my convenience, and even rescheduling things, again for my convenience, never giving-up and getting such a good result. When I had other unrelated legal questions, you always tried to assist without charging me for this extra time. I really appreciate everything you did. I have referred other injury cases to you and will continue to do so. You get my top recommendation. Thank you again!

I slipped and fell at a famous restaurant in Woodland Hills. The restaurant denied my claim and refused to even pay my medical expenses because I had no proof how the substance that caused my fall got on the floor. I hired the Walch Law Offices to represent me. They went to the scene, figured out what probably happened and successfully argued it to the adjuster for the restaurant, obtaining an excellent settlement for me. I am thrilled not only with the creative and hard work and excellent result, but with the special attention I always received whenever I had a problem or question. I totally trust my lawyers and consider them my friends. After the settlement my lawyers worked very hard to figure ways to increase my net result so I am really very happy. I would never use any other lawyer for a personal injury claim and give the Walch attorneys my very best recommendation!

Dear Gary, I want to thank you so much for all your help in settling my insurance bad faith claim for my company’s theft loss in Winnetka, Los Angeles. Although I expressly requested theft coverage and the theft was recorded on my company’s video surveillance system, my own insurance company refused to pay me anything, claiming there was no coverage. I was shocked and quickly realized I needed legal help so I hired your law firm. You worked very closely with me to gather proof of coverage and my damages, and we were able to settle with the insurer, underwriter and broker. I am so relieved to have this over and thank you so much for your personal attention to detail and your genuine concern about my interests. I will recommend your firm to anyone with any insurance claim. Thank you again!

Dear Robert, I am truly amazed by the terrific result you and your firm just got for me. For almost three years I was battling with my bank to recover lost funds based on my bank’s negligent mishandling of my company’s deposit involving a foreign company. I finally gave-up and hired your law firm to represent me. Your firm worked hard to gather evidence, research, consult with experts and put together an outstanding demand package, with follow-up negotiations to recover my lost funds.

Your firm not only kept after me to provide necessary evidence and information so we could resolve this international banking dispute without going to court, but also promptly followed-up with my bank so we were able to settle without court within just about one month of my providing you with requested information. You saved me so much time and money. I won't mention any of the details as my bank required the terms be kept confidential.

As you know, this is not the first time your firm has successfully represented me in a difficult case where the other party refused to make any payment at all and all I can say is you simply amaze me again. I really appreciate your hard work, keeping me informed, excellent results and shall continue to be your client and recommend others to you.

I was bit by a dog in Riverside. The insurance company only offered me a small amount of money, so I hired Robert Walch. Mr. Walch settled my dog bite case for much more than the insurance company offered. I am very happy with my decision to hire Mr. Walch and he and his staff did a great job.

Thank you,
