My son and I had AJ Kotanjian represent us after we were involved in a car accident. We were not at fault and after not getting effective responses from our car insurance company, we were advised by multiple friends and colleagues to call AJ Kotanjian. We were 100% satisfied with his services. He went above and beyond! He communicated with me and was straight forward with what was to happen. I have referred him to family and friends and we ALWAYS will. He is the best! Thank you, AJ! -Brian

Josh S.
AJ Kotanjian did an incredible job handling my case. At the beginning of the process AJ clearly articulated how we would approach the case, what information he needed from me, timelines, and everything relevant to pushing for a successful outcome. He was an absolute professional and we were able to win the insurance claim from my cycling/car accident in less than 3 months which I was very surprised at given how long some of these trials/cases can go. I feel extremely fortunate to have hired him soon after I was injured, and was able to focus on healing and getting back to my life while he took care of everything else. Thank you AJ for your hard work and helping me get back on my feet!

Thanks AJ!
