Thank god for David !
On December 15, 2019 I was hit by a van while crossing the street and suffered severe injuries. Thankfully David Chonin guided me through the entire process. He was always available to answer my questions and concerns. He is an excellent attorney and if you or a loved one are ever injured because of someone’s negligence I highly recommend the Law Offices of Brian Breiter.

Excellent Attorney

If you are looking for a civil attorney look no more. I can’t say enough about David. We hired him last year to represent us with a federal ADA law suit. He did a great job and most importantly he had the patience to deal and explain things so that we could understand. I can’t say enough about the service he provided. Thank you David.

Amazing Litigator!

David Chonin is an amazing litigator and I am very grateful to him and the matter in which he handled my personal injury case. Having an attorney like David Chonin makes all the difference. He genuinely cared about my case, my well being and fought hard to get the compensation my family deserved.

David Chonin attorney
David first represented me when I was injured while riding my bike. A car ran me off the road and I was severely injured. We were ready to go to trial when David was able to negotiate a settlement that fairly compensated me. Thanks

Brother beaten by 11 officers and taser 26 times for running from a college campus party
My family interviewed David. David promised to take care of my brother. My husband is a police training officer, was a paramedic for 15 years and search and rescue hospital corpsman in the military for 15 years. With his training and medical background he was able to breakdown the affidavits of all of the officers and point out inconsistent testimony. We handed over the folders of organized data, lists of college campus witnesses and their contact information, taser download information and police reports. My brother had been tased while strapped down in and ambulance and while strapped down in the hospital. It was an horrific experience that resulted in broken bones and blood filled in the white portion of his eyes. My husband is a taser instructor and was able to point out everything that had done wrong by each officer after cross checking the taster download data and cross checking it with officer testimony. We handed our organized box of information over to David and checked in from time to time on his progress. David never did anything. After more than a year we received all of the evidence in a box with a note that said the statute of limitations had expired and we lost our right to pursue the case. David is untrustworthy and inept. I would not recommend him to any person. We were completely let down. My brother was denied justice after being almost killed by the untrained police officers for running from police on a college campus who came to a party he was at. The punishment didn't fit the simple crime.

5 stars for Brian Breiter and company! While waiting at a dead stop at a crosswalk I was rearended and pushed 50+ feet! Clearly the other drivers fault. I was left in pain and sustained injuries making it difficult to walk. I couldn't even go to work for a week and since my job involves lots of lifting I had to be on modified duty upon return to work. After this experience I just wanted to get a new car, get paid for my minimal medical expenses, and for my week of missed ...work. I tried to work with the insurance company who were willing to pay for the car but nothing else. They kept giving me the run-around. All I wanted was to get paid for the money lost and move on with my life in spite of my continued back and leg pain. After trying to work with the insurance company for weeks I decided I needed to get legal help. That's when I found Brian Britner. He was happy to take my call and speak with me at length about what happened. He then had me come in and meet him and Mark (the lawyer assigned to my case). We went over the events using model cars and then got down to the case. What really came through was their genuine concern for me and my well being. Seeing that I was clearly still injured and in pain they assisted me to find a qualified orthopedic doctor and a physical therapist. After several months my pain was mostly gone but the insurance was still being difficult but now I had a lawyer on my side! After several months the insurance company finally paid up but instead of the bare minimum (which I had originally asked for) Brain and Mark made sure that I got the maximum covered payout! This covered all my expenses and left me with a big check that I deposited directly to my daughters college fund! Without theses guys I would have been severely underpaid and worse yet I probably would've have gotten the medical care I needed to heal properly and reduce my pain. Brain and Mark are lawyers that care! I want to say an additional thanks to Mark who on multiple phone conversations always kept me informed and patiently explained the process. I am so thankful. These guys made a bad situation better

In July of 2016, while I was in at a personal crossroads and going thru a particularly hard time in my life, I was rear ended by a drunk driver. If you're lucky enough to have never been struck by another vehicle, let me tell you-- it is one of the most terrifying experiences one could have the misfortune of going thru. After regaining my composure the best I could all things considered, I got out of my car and proceeded to watch the driver slowly back out of what used to be ...my bumper, and drive away. I was left completely in shock and unsure of how to proceed. Law enforcement showed up and assisted to a degree, but it wasn't until the next day that the true help showed up.

Not having needed legal representation in the past, I did research online about lawyers in LA and found Brian's office. His was the only call I made, and that the best choice I could have possibly made that day. Brian himself picked up, listened to what happened, gave me advice, was patient and helpful. They took my case, and every day since the accident Brian, Mark Rubashkin, and Jeff Twomey have been lifesavers. I saw very quickly that I could not have navigated this complicated process of insurance companies, getting treatment, and fixing the chaos this accident caused in my life on my own. This accident turned my world upside down in regards to my physical health, and had a devastating affect on my every day existence. They've been there for me in every single way I needed, and have helped me thru this tough past few years. I could not have imagined a team of lawyers doing a better and more thorough job then these guys did. We ended up with a settlement that was beyond anything I would have realistically hoped for or thought possible. Thanks again guys-- my life would not be what it is today had you not been there to help me thru this difficult time in my life. I was lucky and fortunate to find you.

If you're looking for a lawyer who shoots straight and responds quickly you've found your guy.

Luckily, I haven't had the need of a personal injury attorney (yet? ever?) but I've recommended Brian to friends who have, and they sing Brian's praises, saying he's really sharp and great to work with.

Brian has also helped me a number of times with consultations. And he has recommended other lawyers who practice in fields he doesn't cover and they were great recommendations. I really can't recommend him enough.

On October 21st of 2016 I was riding my bike, heading to the store for a quick snack. I was heading east on Rose Ave. toward Lincoln, and keeping a moderate pace in the bike lane. It was a gorgeous day. As I was just entering a crosswalk, I noticed a car coming from the opposite direction was just about to turn left onto the street I was crossing. The driver was moving quite fast and it was clear there was no way for me to get out of the way quick enough. I called out to...

In January of 2016 I was seven months pregnant. I was sitting in my Camry listening to some Opera music at a red light on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.

I was rear ended at around forty five miles per hour. I never even heard breaks.
When I came to, I realized what had happened as the driver in front of me ran toward me with his phone in hand. All I could say to him was that I was pregnant and he got on the phone with 911 immediately.

I have nothing but positive things to say for Mr. Breiter. He is a consummate professional who rushed to my assistance with great enthusiasm. His office is smartly run; calls and return calls are handled swiftly and efficiently, and I never, ever feel like just a "number" or a nameless client. Instead, the prompt correspondance always makes me feel like Mr. Breiter is prioritizing me. He was thorough and well-researched in advising me of my options. Brian just handles things, takes the pressure off you and gets things going in your favor. You could do a lot worse than to have this expert in your corner.

Last year I was hit head on by a drunk driver as he drove down the wrong side of the street. He hit two other cars outside of mine, before crashing himself into a wall. He needed to be cut out by the jaws of life. I immediately suffered a concussion and pinched cranial nerves. My car was totaled and my mind was (temporarily) lost.

A few weeks later as I called my insurance company to start processing my medical insurance claim, I was told they couldn’t prove that the acciden...t hadn’t been my fault as I didn’t know the police report number (as I had been concussed when the police arrived, and the police were busy dealing with people much more messed up than I.) It was a harsh phone call, and left me very anxious having to recount my accident to someone that really didn’t feel like they cared or wanted to help me.

From there, I contacted Brian’s office and he immediately called me back. I quickly set up one meeting where I laid out the details and gave them some basic info. They were nice and chill and made me very very comfortable with the process. And that was it. I was able to continue to get treatment for the symptoms that popped up without having to worry about having to argue or deal with my insurance, and was just able to focus on getting myself back in shape.

Brian’s office was able to get me my full amount available under my policy. My first trip to the ER was also not covered by my medical insurance, so when I faulted on the payment to them I got a lien. Brian’s office also negotiated that lien WAY down and settled it up on my behalf.

I really just didn’t want to deal with any of this. Im not a litigious person, and talking about the accident at all does bring up lots of stress and anxiety. Not having to think about it, and knowing that I had a great team advocating and staying on top of everything on my behalf was a huge blessing.

I really hope no one has to deal with these kinds of issues, but I would highly recommend Brian and his team if you ever have to. He made something really awful not quite as bad.

Breiter Law is the most honest and up front law firm I have ever come across. Brian and his staff is still Human ladies and gentlemen! While all other attorneys have passed on to the dark side. Brian will appreciate this joke

My no-fault auto accident case was handled with very, I want to stress, VERY minimal work on my end. Brian handled everything from the filing the claim, to thoroughly searching the assets of the defendant, processing my UIM, dealing with Rowlie and ev...en negotiating with Blue Shield of California to get a fair settlement out of the limited insurance limit available.

I also want to mention that he took my case even if the insurance limit was not a commercial limit but just above state minimum. Many attorneys out there refused to take my case because it wasn't "big enough" for them. Brian can tell you the story if he feels comfortable but he took me in, no questions asked, completely made me feel like I had all the firepower in the world and had no worries afterwards.

Breiter Law's diligence and thoroughness is next to none.
Brian was also generous and fair on the part of the case that I had done some footwork on. He only took a commission for the portion of the settlement that was left to negotiate and didn't take a commission on the first half of the settlement!

I can't really express how awesome and refreshing it is to meet a law firm that hires attorney and support staff who are still honest, who still stand by their client and finally, provides stellar service with minimal to no headache on the client's end.

Brian, thank you very much, you and your friends are always going to be have my business.

On November 2016, our car was rear ended by another vehicle. I was sitting on the passenger side while my boyfriend drove us home from Lamaze class. We were yielding to traffic in front of us when we were rear-ended by a vehicle that was attempting to switch lanes. Their vehicle was traveling at such a high speed that the impact forced our car into the car in front of us. At the time of the accident I was 7 months pregnant and frightened. I think the shock from the impact sen...t an adrenaline rush through out my body that I did not feel any pain, all I could think of was my baby. We immediately decided to go have the baby checked out to make sure the baby was fine. Thankfully everything was ok and we were sent home that same day. The next day I woke up with pain all through my body, specifically my back and I even threw up some blood. I was very scared there was something wrong with the baby so we went to the ER but were turned away and sent to Prenatal Urgent Care instead. I was diagnosed with vertigo and whiplash. I had extreme back pain and awful headaches for the remainder of pregnancy and unfortunately there wasn’t anything they could do for me. I could not do therapy, no procedures or any medicine for pain due to my advanced pregnancy. To make matters worse we found out the driver had no license. It was then that we decided to look for an attorney and thankfully we found The Law Offices of Brian Breiter. The next two months were hard trying to cope with the back pain as my baby kept growing and getting heavier. Sleeping was impossible.
Brian, Mark and the entire team were absolutely amazing! They were very caring and compassionate throughout the remaining months of my pregnancy. They checked on me and made sure the baby was doing well. They fought for me when the insurance company tried to offer less than the full policy. After a long battle with the insurance company, they were able to get the full policy limits for me. I would definitely recommend The Law Offices of Brian Breiter to everyone. They aren’t just amazing and get the job done, they are caring and compassionate individuals who treat you like family. I can assure you they will take the best care of you!
