“My attorney with Malvin Law was beyond impressive. I was involved in a car accident and from the first call my attorney Max was “ALL OVER IT” he handled all the logistics, set me up with a rehab facility and I began treatment within 72 hours of my accident. Past that point he checked in with me weekly not to update me necessarily, but just to see how I was doing and feeling. He got me the best settlement he could and really fought for my best interest. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
