Results, Diligent, Experienced
When we were t-boned by a county shuttle vehicle, I knew I would need good legal representation to make sure everyone played fair, by the rules, and were held to account. Frank Azar and Associates made sure that my wife and I were compensated for all of our injuries and that the insurance company upheld their responsibilities. I am very grateful to Antonio Linares and Erica Vecchio for their hard work and diligence, and I’m so glad we called Frank Azar right away! Would highly recommend, even over other firms out there, because of their experience and expertise!! Thank you, Frank Azar and Associates!!!
