    I'm so happy I found Michael to assist me in my worker's comp case. Do not do this alone with your…read moreAdjuster! Michael fought hard to get the necessary treatment I deserved. Michael was literally one call away! THANK YOU!

    I had the privilege of working with Michael Yap as my attorney for a workers comp case, and I…read morecannot recommend him highly enough. Michael was not only amazing throughout the entire process but also took the time to explain every detail, ensuring I understood the ins and outs of my case. He kept me in the loop and always got back to me within a reasonable amount of time for someone so busy. I almost didn't file the case but after speaking with him and hearing that he believed I should be fairly compensated for the pain that I had to go through I decided to take a leap and do it. From the beginning, Michael handled all of my doctor's appointments and paperwork with efficiency. His ability to communicate the pros and cons of each decision I faced was invaluable, and he provided solid advice on what he believed to be the best course of action. My case lasted around a year and a half, during which I received an initial settlement offer of approximately 20/25k. Despite receiving treatment from a chiropractor and Dr. Caligouri, along with a PQME ruling 100% fault to my workplace, the insurance company remained adamant about the original offer. At the time I was dealing with a lot of anxiety in general but especially about this case so I wanted to settle but was not going to take 25k. After a thorough discussion over a Zoom call, Michael was able to significantly increase the settlement offer. I ultimately decided to accept the settlement and handle further medical procedures through my own insurance, which turned out to be a good thing. I found out that I had a pre-existing condition, unknown to me, which could have complicated matters further and drawn out the case longer than I would like even though the Job was the reason that I was having the pain. As far as any negatives, It was a little difficult to meet because he works in Orange County and I live in San Diego. But most communication is through phone and you only need to meet up once maybe twice. He does take a lot of time over the phone to explain everything, which was important to me because I tend to forget things easily and ask the same question two maybe even 4 times and tbh I didn't even want to meet in person too much. Between work and school and doc appointments a phone call was enough. He takes the standard % for workers comp lawyers. Michael Yap was an amazing choice that I would make again but hopefully won't need to.
