Chalat Law, specifically Evan Banker, provided a second chance at living my life to its fullest…read more This law firm fought for my justice, honor, and happiness. My experience with Chalat began as a professional relationship, and quickly developed into a close friendship. During troubled times Evan went the extra step to not only provide legal counsel, but additionally provided outside support groups to continue my personal recovery. If you are in search of a legal team that is not only limited to experience and knowledge to win/settle your case, but are also seeking compassion and understanding of your circumstances this is the team for you! I am forever grateful for the emotional support and outcome of my case to Evan and his colleagues.

I was promptly visited by all three attorneys. I have never sued anybody, but with huge medical bills and time away from my business, I decided to have Chalat file suit. I found all in the firm to be smart, responsive, and very capable. We settled out of court. Although I expected 1 year to settle, it took less than 8 months. They fought hard for me and succeeded. I cannot thank them enough.

Initially when I spoke with Jay he seemed polite over the phone and requested I send over my…read moreevidence regarding a potential case I had for review After the attorney reviewed my docs and determined I did not have a case, I was simply sent an email with no detail I decided to contact Jay over the phone for more detail as to why it was denied which would then help me make a decision on my next course of action but he told me the attorney would not provide that information while being very rude, abrupt and eager to get off the phone with me I decided to contact some other law firms and had several more consultations and although my matter didn't warrant an actual case, they all seemed at least appreciative for considering their law firm and explained why I didn't have case and even pointed me to the right direction as I then decided to pursue my claim through small claims court My experience with Anzalone was very different from the other law firms as they were very pretentious and only had time to talk for their own benefit Hopefully I won't need any legal services in the future but if so I wouldn't contact this office or even recommend them as there are plenty of other law firms with a little more care and professionalism

My car accident wasn't severe, so I knew there wouldn't be a large settlement. Other attorneys…read moredeclined my case because the profit margin wasn't great enough. Alana was willing to represent me regardless of her profit, because she believes in doing the right thing. State Farm was going to only pay a portion of my bills, claiming that I was being over charged, which is unfair because I never would have had to go to the hospital if it wasn't for their client. They were going to make me negotiate with the hospital to lower my charges. Alana stepped in on my behalf and made sure the insurance company did the right thing and paid in full the bills that their client caused me to incur. She also made sure I was compensated for my pain and suffering. She took an enormous amount of stress off of my shoulders and dealt with my bills on my behalf. She did a great job communicating with me and keeping me updated with my case. I would highly recommend Alana Anzalone.

I am so thankful to have been represented by Melissa Winthers and cannot express enough gratitude…read morefor all she has done for me. I was in a horrific car accident that completely devastated me and changed my life as I know it. I was overwhelmed and lost and had no idea where to go or what to do. I sustained a TBI that led me to have cognitive changes as well as feelings of being lost and vulnerable. I originally hired an attorney that did not communicate with me and did not take the time to understand my case or injuries. This resulted in poor advice and became a very costly mistake both physically and financially. Thankfully, I was then referred to Melissa. Melissa and her team are remarkable. They took pressure off my plate by communicating well and also handling claims, bills and paperwork that I was unable to do. They were available for help and truly cared about my well being. Not only is Melissa compassionate, she is also knowledgeable about head injuries and physical injuries which enabled her to support me in my recovery process. I was not just a business deal to her.

A LOSING CASE FROM THE GET GO…read more I still couldn't believe I was dealing with a lawyer today from the rudeness and disrespect I have received. I had to take time off from work for an appointment with Randy at 1pm. I waited for about 30 minutes while I had been trying to reach him through his secretary. I got a voice mail at around 2pm saying that he's been around and no one answers the door so he left... funny I was waiting right outside of my apartment! I asked him why he didn't call me when he got to the door, he said he forgot to bring my number. I told him I have been trying to ask his secretary to reach him and had been trying to call him back multiple times after he finally called me back. Not only there wasn't any intention to apologize, he dropped the bomb, "Let me tell you two things. First, my phone has not been working for the past weeks. I have not been getting phone calls from people - it happens. Second, don't be angry, get another lawyer!" Beep. He hanged up. I am VERY glad I don't have to deal with these guys. What happened today only shows two things: First, this lawyer is incapable to communicate in even a simple meet-up, which can be concerning when I try to win a case. Second, he doesn't really care to take my case. Bottom line, have some respect to a potential clients or even just a stranger. To the audience, it's not like you need to work with a lawyer all the time, however when you do, stay away from them.

Gerald Sloat recently represented me in a car accident case. I was completely overwhelmed by the…read moreresulting concussion, and he (and all the staff) could not have been more helpful. He walked me through ALL of my options - including tips on how to represent myself if that is what I wanted. There are truly no words to describe what it's like to have an amazing advocate, especially when you are injured and confused. Jerry's focus was on helping me to heal, and taking the stress, anxiety and burden of dealing with the driver's insurance company off of me. I can honestly say that Jerry is a truly caring human being, whose top concern is for client healing. I would recommend him to family and friends without hesitation.
