I got the worst luck of hit-and-runs as if I'm attracted to a magnetic field of vehicles. Last November is precisely what happened; I was picking up my daughter to school when this young lady driver hit me from behind so hard I blacked out for a second. I realized what had happened, so I pulled over to the side, not realizing she had fled the scene. Earlier, I said that I had the worst luck, but my best friend referred me to Darren, and it's a godsend from there. Darren is attentive and has the best care for my treatment, despite his hectic schedule, he prioritizes and exceeds all my needs. I can't forget his assistant, Gilda, who has been very helpful and easy to reach. Darren is a true advocate of obtainable knowledge in personal injuries, and I could not be any happier with his service. Thank you Manibog Law..... read more

Wow! This attorney is totally amazing. My friend Ernest recommended this attorney, and I'm glad that he did. Attorney Manibog quickly responded back to my phone call and gave me satisfactory answers in regards to my situation. Thank you so very kindly for your diligent assistance, and I greatly appreciated your help. read more

Darren Manibog is the utmost professional. He took on my case after I was referred to him by a close colleague and friend (a chiropractor) after I was injured in a car accident in 2018. He helped me negotiate and even guided me through a rough emotional patch I experienced after the Great Pandemic of 2020. The emotional and physical damages from a bad car accident can be difficult to deal with. I was experiencing chronic neck/ back pain as well as a broken left thumb. It took months to heal and tens of thousands in medical expenses. Through it all Mr. Manibog was kind and understanding. I was a bit impatient toward the end and wanted to settle my case, but his wisdom and guidance helped me wait it out a few months longer. I don't want to get too heavy into the details of my case due to personal reasons, so let's just say he helped me negotiate a settlement that was about twice what I expected and/ or is the industry norm for my particular kind of car accident. He can do that for you as well. I would highly recommend him. read more

Thank you for representing me with my accident case. You took care of me and my car from day one. I wouldn't have been able to deal with the insurance companies on my own. I will definitely refer my friends and family to your office read more

I HAD AN EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE WITH THE TEAM AT MANIBOG LAW. I was involved in a rear-end car accident and was referred to Atty Darren Manibog by a friend. From the second I spoke with Darren, I knew I was in good hands. I was assigned a chiropractor, pain management specialist, x-rays, etc. Darren and his assistant, Gilda, did everything they can to take care of me. They are always responsive, polite, and straightforward. With Atty Manibog and Gilda by my side, I am convinced I ended my case with the best possible results. Atty Manibog completely exceeded my expectations when he got me the absolute most I could receive with my settlement. Of course, I couldn't be happier as a client! Without a doubt, I am VERY impressed with Atty Manibog and his team - they are truly professional individuals. I highly recommend MANIBOG LAW to anyone looking for a lawyer. I wouldn't think twice if I ever needed a lawyer again. Thank you, Atty Manibog and team, for your dedication and hard work! I have already recommended Manibog Law to all of my friends and family and will continue to do so. 1000% recommend! read more

I never thought that I would need to use a lawyer my entire life and I am so fortunate to meet an amazing ATTY. Darren Manibog across yelp search of Best Lawyers. Years ago I was rear ended while heading for work on a weekend and ended up in ER. I don't know what to do so I search "Best Lawyer for accidents" I came across Atty. Manibogs Law Firm with very good ratings. It was Sunday, office was close but I took a leap of faith....voila!!! To my surprise it was Atty. Manibog who answered my call. (It seems like when I dialed the number to his office, instead of voicemail to answer, my call was directed to his cp). I told him everything that happened and he patiently listened. He went over the process and the first step was to make my pain get better. Everything went well and I was even more surprise with a very good result of the settlement. However, no one would want to undergo an accident like this due to an effect in the future. Thank you so much Atty. Manibog. Years and Years had passed. While I was driving home from work on a December night, a car coming from the other side of the road t-boned my back passenger side....the next day I was not able to go for work and ended up in Urgent Care due to pain that cause me and re-injured my previous issue. I no longer have the energy to deal with all the insurances and etc. As I was browsing my cp I came across ATTY. Manibog's number. Tried to give him a call and he answered as well as he remembers me despite his thousands and thousands of clients. He will always treat you as a family and will patiently listen to you. To sum it up. I started my treatment, undergo some test. Atty. Manibog is also very respectful of your decision on what treatment you only want as I refused the other option. During the process it was Atty. Manibog who always update me by receiving his calls. The process really went very well as he always surprise me with a very very pleasing result. Thank you so much for your help Atty. Manibog, for bringing back my confidence in driving. I can't thank you enough for everything. More power to Manibog's Law Firm and more Blessings as you extend your help to all of us who needed it. read more

I was involved in a car accident and reached out to Darren from a family referral. From the get-go, Darren and his team were communicative throughout the whole process. They provided realistic expectations and always replied back to me in a timely manner. I understood that it would be a drawn out process, because of the involvement of all parties. However, I also understood that I had to do my part to provide all the needed documents, pictures, etc. Overall, his team is exceptional and I wouldn't hesitate to refer to him to anyone else. read more

Darren and his team are fantastic. I was in an auto accident where my car was rear ended at an angle while I was 6 months pregnant. I was referred to Darren, and I could not have been happier with the way my case was handled and the outcome. His entire staff are very professional, they walked me through everything, were very detailed, and worked hard on my case. Never once during the entire process did I feel pressured to do anything. They presented me facts and options. I would recommend them to anyone in need of personal injury representation. read more

Gilda is my hero and my guardian angel. I was nearing the statute of limitations on a car accident, and couldn't find anyone to take on my case. Gilda listened to me break down sobbing, reassuring me that everything was going to be okay, and that I had a case. She counseled me over the phone many times, always being supportive and caring, and making me feel like I was doing the right thing by taking people to court. I won a decision in small claims court. I asked Gilda if I could send her flowers, but she refused. So I figure the least I can do is tell the world how incredible she is, and how grateful I am to her for all that she did for me. Thank you, Gilda. I wish there were more people in the world like you. read more

Did not choose them to represent me They are horrible at answering phone calls and calling you back. They want to know private details and insurance numbers before they even represent you, hence I do not think they're trustworthy or reliable and pay attention to the over exaggerated great reviews they're obviously fake, duplicate accounts. Many people are vulnerable when looking for a lawyer, but DO YOUR RESEARCH not just on Yelp. read more

About two years ago I was involved in a very serious car accident on the 405 freeway in Orange County where I was "rammed" by a multi-ton garbage truck. When I returned home from the ER later that day, I gave my wife some fateful advice. I told her, "Research the internet to find the BEST legal representation out there". My wife did just that. She found an attorney with more than 20 years of experience representing hundreds of clients in a First Class manner. The attorney's name is Darren Manibog. Darren's main office is in South Pasadena and he has offices in Long Beach, West Covina as well as other cities. Darren is not only a top notch attorney but a great human being also. He sincerely wants what is best for his clients. NEVER any pressure applied to clients to "settle quickly" like you hear about so many other personal injury firms out there. My case was finally settled and my wife and I are very pleased with the results. Linda Echegaray was excellent as well as the entire staff. Kudos to Madeleine Bowers and Madison! My wife and I love all of you for helping us. You are now family to us. If you are ever in need of legal help.......Look no further. Contact Darren Manibog's office. He and his staff are THE BEST!!!!!! read more

Darren is the real deal! I recently got notice of a court case requiring my presence. I was afraid to ask for any sort of help because there are no lawyers allowed for small claims cases. I then thought that there is no hurt in trying; so I reached out to Darren. He was very prompt, informative and advised me on what to do from beginning to end. Not only did he relieve my anxiety about the issue but he lifted the burden off my shoulders. I feel a lot more confident and prepared to face what is to come. Darren was very nice to take time out of his busy schedule to help me. read more

Manibog Law - Awesome car accident toolkit. Includes a disposable camera, flashlight and a information booklet. - Personal Injury Law Near Me - Pasadena, California

This was an amazing law firm for my fiancé's car accident. She was a victim of road rage and an attempted hit and run. The firm comes highly recommended if you need a personal injury firm such as a car accident. The case ended up lasting longer than what we thought but that's because the firm fought hard to make sure my fiancé got the max amount rewarded. She ended up getting much more than what we thought! The staff and paralegals were pretty prompt in any email and call returns and darren was always prompt to any meetings. He made my fiancé and I feel very comfy and like he actually cared about her health, which was very refreshing. The medical team and therapy they got for her was excellent! Lastly, the manibog firm was very accomodating overall and he has multiple offices all around LA that darren will go to to meet! The firm is highly recommended:) read more

I was involved in an accident at a gym. The establishment was negligent and not repairing a piece of equipment that could have broken my neck or even killed me.

A settlement was reached and I would recommend this law office to anyone seeking legal help. read more

A year ago I was rear ended, and if it wasn't for Darren and his team I would of never gotten the treatment I needed to fix my back. After that accident my back was feelings all kinds of pressure due to the pressure of my spinal disc on my left side. Darren and his team made sure to accommodate my needs as well as follow up on my recovery. I had the chance to work with Lorena and she was very thoughtful and kind. Also got back to me as soon as she can and took the time to answer all my questions. Manibog provided me with realistic expectations and always kept me updated, since cases like this may take long. After a year of working with Darren and his team, I finally reached an end to my case and I must say I am extremely happy with the outcome. Not only that but towards the end Darren even went out of his way to meet me and follow up with my recovery as we were coming to an end with my case.

I injured myself at work back in 2016 and sustained a badly fractured finger as a result. I was really hesitant to seek legal counsel until I started to notice the medical bills were piling up and the building I got injured at didn't show any interest in helping me with my bills or even taking the time to contact me back. I decided to just look at my options and googled personal injury attorneys in my area. Luckily enough, Manibog Law was one of, if not, THE HIGHEST rated attorneys in my area! Not only did they have spectacular reviews, but were also located just minutes from my hometown of Pasadena. I decided to give them a call and was able to schedule an appointment that worked around my busy work schedule. They were extremely friendly every step of the way and all though I had a misguided perception of all attorneys, they soon proved me VERY wrong! They showed a level of genuine concern that not even close friends and family ever show me! They were with me every step of the way and answered any and all questions and concerns I had. They even took the time to explain any process that I was unfamiliar or ignorant about with great detail. In the end they were able to give me a very generous settlement and still kept following up with me after the case was settled. I even met Darren Manibog personally and he was very knowledgeable of my small case and showed genuine concern for my well being. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone that seeks genuine caregivers and amazing staff! read more

I was referred by a friend to Darren Manibog and at first they took my information quickly. Since then it's been like pulling teeth to get a status or even a response to emails or messages. I have asked to speak with Darren, but never got a call back. Truly disappointing and would not recommend. read more

If you need the best legal advise or if you are in need of hiring a personal injury attorney, don't even think twice just call this outstanding firm and ask for Darren Manibog, hands down the most professional, caring, hard working, knowledgable human/attorney you can find. We all know that finding an attorney now a days is as easy as 123 but finding the one that can make your experience as easy as 123 is one of the most difficult thinks to do, believe me been there done that. Thank you Mr. Darren Manibog and Gilda (the paralegal that is his right hand ) for all that you did for me, and for making my experience smooth and worry free. I wish I was allowed to give you 10 stars. I am forever grateful. read more

Manibog Law - Eiffel Tower Paris, France - Personal Injury Law Near Me - Pasadena, California

I highly recommend Darren Manibog. He is very professional in handling the case and the office staff is very attentive and helpful.

I was involved in a car accident and my cousin referred me to Darren and his team. And I'm so glad I did reach out to them because they truly are amazing! They are all kind and professional. They handled my case very well and I felt cared for. I didn't feel stressed because they provided me with detailed overview of the process and provided me updates within reasonable timeframes. Darren was very thorough in explaining the outcome and was patient answering all my questions. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with their service and the outcome of my case. I can't thank them enough! I definitely recommend him and his team! read more

I got in an accident back in 2015 which resulted in a fractured wrist. I emailed/called a handful of lawyers and no one wanted to open a case with me. I emailed Darren and he responded quick and believed I had a case. I met with his paralegal and she assured us that we had a solid case. Two years later and the case is now settled. While it did take a while, Darren explained to me why that was the case and it made sense. Sometimes the quickest results are not the best. And to believe that others thought I did not have a case! It was my first time having an attorney and Darren and his team made it an almost flawless experience. read more

Darren Manibog is the best in the business, hands down. He truly cares for his clients and works hard to make sure you get what you deserve. My case was dragged on for years by the opposite party's insurance company but that didn't discourage Darren's team. There was constant contact and I really enjoyed working with Patty Tham. I felt like she was truly there whenever I needed her. If you would like an attorney who will fight for you, it sounds cliche, but Darren and his team of experts are what you need. I should mention I found Darren through Yelp on the recommendation from my husband's fellow USC alumni association and I was not disappointed. read more

Thank you Manibog for NOT taking the slightest interest in my case. A courtesy phone call would have shown your professionalism and respect for your (potential) clients. Know that it has been three months since I called your office for assistance and have yet to hear from your office - thank God I am not holding my breath!!! I do know that I will not be considering your services down the road for absolutely anything. Thanks again for your (LACK) of response!! read more

Darren Manibog represented my father and I when we were injured in an auto accident and I can't imagine anyone having done a better job for me. He was extremely helpful in helping me find therapy and handling the insurance company who wanted to pay as little as possible on my claim. I was completely satisfied with the outcome of my case, and continue to refer business to his firm. Many of my friends have also used his services and all of them have been extremely satisfied. If you really need help, and may not be sure where to go, please at least pick up the phone and call Darren. I promise you will be happy you did. read more

My wife and I were having an issue with a crazy tenant that began to threaten us. She went so far as to file a claim against us and made up some crazy allegations that we were running a rental scam. To make a long story short, Mr. Manibog was able to calm our nerves and handle the situation with his expertise. If it wasn't for Mr. Manibog's communication skills in helping calm my wife down from the threatening and harassing phone calls, I don't know what I would have done. We initially had another attorney that was trying to help us and this other guy made the situation worse. I want to say thank you to Mr. Manibog for helping us out of what could have been a very bad mess. There was another issue that he also helped me out with just by making one phone call and was able to avoid any further misunderstandings! So if you want an honest, hardworking lawyer who knows how to talk to people, then I highly recommend Manibog Law, PC! read more

I first had the pleasure of hearing of Manibog Law, PC from my brother's successful case in the spring of 2015, what follows is my experience, one that ends in retribution, mutual respect and admiration for one the the best lawyers I have ever met. I was driving on the freeway and came to a red light, I stopped and no more than 5 seconds later I was rear ended by someone going nearly highway speeds at the freeway on-ramp with a steep decline. After receiving treatment at the scene I visited Manibog Law in South Pasadena and was greeted by the most gracious receptionist one could hope to to meet after a traumatic even like a traffic collision. There expertise and knowledge packed with a helpful demeanor and friendly attitude is what persuaded me to retain them as my attorney the day after the accident. The process was long, very long, think 2 years 2 months, for a basically open and shut case (I was standing at a red light and was hit, driver admitted fault at the scene). Here's where patience comes into play, good things do come to those that wait. Like many have said, every case is different and no one result will be the same, what works for one person will not work for another, however, Manibog Law really cares about their clients, big or small, no matter what. I know for a fact that they will make it right and make you feel like they are fighting for you as if they were fighting for themselves. If you are on the fence or have never had to work with an attorney, know this, the friendly team at Manibog Law will have your back, even if its hurt. read more

I jsut want to thank you Darren Manibog and the staff, For been so helpful, honest and professional they handle my case very fast Thanks again to Manibog Law and special thanks to Darren Manibog read more

I had a great experience with Manibog Law. I hired them after I was in a car accident and the driver's insurance was giving me the run-around, trying to tell me I wasn't really hurt. Darren Manibog, the attorney I worked with, always took my calls or called me back the same day. All my questions were answered and I felt that they really cared about my case. My case settled quickly after I finished treatment and for more money than I was expecting. I strongly recommend the attorneys at Manibog law. read more

I want to start off by saying that in my past experience with lawyers were extremely horrible. They would take my case and stop taking my calls or even go on vacation without notice. So I decided to go on yelp and found Darren with over 50 great reviews. I gave his team a call and they were very helpful and extremely caring about our well being. My case was pretty complex due to all the insurance companies that were involved. It took over a year to be resolved but I was surprised with the outcome. It had exceed my expectation and earned my trust in lawyers. Darren will be in my phone book for any legal advice. read more

November 13, 2011. I am 38 weeks pregnant and celebrating my older son's 11th birthday. I forgot to get ice cream, so I jump in the car to go to the grocery store. I stop at the stop sign. All of a sudden, my car was violently rear ended by a yellow Hummer. The driver did not stop. He took off and left me there. My head hit the steering wheel and my my seat collapsed, forcing me to fall onto my back hard. On top of that, I am 9 months pregnant! I suffered many injuries including a herniated disc. Miraculously, they found the drunk hit and run driver. And one week later, I gave birth to a healthy and happy baby boy (we have 5 boys now ages 21, 18, 13, 11 and 2!) A dear friend recommended Darren Manibog to me. Darren came to my home and was so gracious. He made me feel like he would handle my case vigorously and with great care! I am pleased with his professionalism and am truly grateful for his help. I highly recommend Manibog Law for your personal injury case! read more

When seeking a lawyer, the only name that comes from my entire family when asked is Manibog. Being a former client of Monty Manibog, I knew my recent case was definitely going to be in good hands with Darren Manibog. Seeking a lawyer can definitely feel intimidating especially when it's your first time being involved in an accident. Most people just let the insurances handle it and it's a done deal; but they don't realize there's more to an accident than a wrecked car, etc. One's health and well being are the most important and it requires immediate attention. Many walk around without health insurance and just live with the injuries posed on them without treatment because they don't have coverage and can't afford to pay for outrageous medical bills... Let alone a lawyer. This is where Darren and his colleagues come into play and do what they do best! Darren made sure we were constantly well aware of the progress of our case and gave us updates when possible. Depending on the client, he can update you minute to minute details or just do his work and give you periodic updates that he feels necessary to run by you first prior to proceeding. Nothing beats having an Atty on speed dial! We just wrapped up our case & Darren clearly explained everything in a way we would be able to understand the itemization of the settlement and how they came to the offer. Once again, Manibog has held up their credibility! If you need help in a case, make Darren your first call before doing anything else & he will get the ball rolling immediately and without hesitation. Thank you Atty. Darren Manibog for your persistence, knowledge, professionalism, and genuine kindness during this journey. We couldn't have moved forward properly without your assistance! Thank you! read more

We were referred by a close family friend to Manibog & Manibog LLP. Darren handled our case. My daughter and I got rear-ended while on a complete stop. A car slammed on the other car behind us who in turn hit us. [Coincidentally, the car who hit us turned out to be a close family friend of Jon's mom from way back. They lost contact decades ago.] The day I called regarding our case, Darren got us an appointment with the chiropractor that same afternoon to get checked right away as we were in pain. Unfortunately, the accident happened at a time when I was in between jobs. He found us a great chiropractor, Dr Weiler, whose office is within walking distance to our house. I ended up keeping him as our regular chiropractor... (that's another review =D) To make a long story short, he kept close contact with us and informed us of everything that was going on. Unfortunately, the insurance coverage of the person responsible for the accident wasn't as much... and because there was an old couple in the other car who got hurt pretty bad... the case dragged on for a couple of years. Finally when it got settle out of court, he got us a compensation that covered the out of pocket car repair expense we incurred. Even after the case he kept in touch with us. Darren is friendly, informative, helpful and very trustworthy. We do recommend them to all our friends and family. read more

We had minor fender bender on New Years Eve and I was worried about my wife and 7 month old son's health. Because of the holiday and work, we didn't think about it much since it was such a small damage. My wife had small pain so naturally I thought my son may have been injured, but he's smiling and giggling as usual so didn't think much about it. Being a new father, when playing with my son, I was worry about his health even though he's playing cheerfully. Decided to look for legal advice one evening. It was late at night and I'm searching and summited my situation through the web for a reply through Manibog's site. Being a father himself, I was able to get great advice from a genuine person that cares. I was assured that my son is actually more resilient than an adult. Caring seems to be such a rarity nowadays. I'm thankful to have spoken to Manibog and will keep him in mind for the future. Getting sane and sound advice is rare and it didn't hurt to ask so now I have better piece of mind for my family. Thank you, thank you! read more

Last year I was rear-ended by a big rig that totaled my car and left me pretty shaken up. At the recommendation of a friend, I immediately got into contact with Darren to help me with the accident. He went over and beyond what was necessary, helping me immensely with my case. My questions and concerns were addressed promptly, be it by e-mail or phone call, Darren was very thorough with reassuring me throughout the process. I was always updated and kept in the loop in a timely manner. It felt that my needs were always put first. I never felt like I had to settle when the other insurance company tried to lowball me. There were a lot of back-and-forth work with the other insurance that frankly left me frustrated at points in time. However, Darren was never discouraged and kept a positive outlook on everything. Darren stuck it out with me and the results were more than satisfactory. He was patient, hard-working, honest, and compassionate. I highly recommend Darren Manibog Law. They put their clients first and will work on your behalf to seek the justice you deserve. read more

A few years back, we were rear-ended in a hit-n-run in our rental car in Vegas. Long story short, the culprits avoided providing ID and made up some lies about "I'll pay you back when we get home" (because apparently, we were all from LA). Anyway, the guys were jerks and literally split up and ran away while we were still talking to them. Unfortunately, they didn't realize that their license plate fell off during the collision. I Yelped and found Mr. Manibog, who took on our case immediately. He walked us through the process and legal jargon and let us know exactly what to expect and what steps to take to proceed. Due to the other vehicle owner's insurance persistent low-balling tactics, our case ended up taking a couple years to settle. However, It didn't matter because the damage was done and we had nothing to lose at that point, so we stuck to our guns and patiently waited while Mr. Manibog fought for us to get as much as we could to cover the costs of medical, auto repair, and other expenses. Ultimately, Mr. Manibog ended up getting us more than twice what we were initially offered, despite the other party's claims of "we can't go higher than $___." It took some patience, but he followed through and held our hand every step of the way so we understood exactly what was going on. On another occasion, when I mentioned that a friend of mine was struggling with a squatter at her house, Mr. Manibog also connected her with his network for legal advice. I found that to be such a kind gesture (especially since girlfriend was beyond stressed and had so many lawyers refuse to help.) I highly recommend Manibog Law. You won't have to worry about not understanding legal procedures or jargon. Mr. Manibog is forthright and you can rest assured he'll take care of your business. read more
