Balaban Law

In November 2024, I was hit head-on by a Jeep—my third time being hit by a distracted driver. After a terrible past experience where an attorney from Bachus and Schanker took most of my settlement, I honestly didn’t want to deal with another lawyer. I even considered negotiating directly with the other driver’s insurance company. A friend insisted I reach out to Heather at Balaban Law, and I’m so glad I did. From the very first text, Heather was quick to respond, knowledgeable, and reassuring. I told her about my past experiences, and she promised their office would be different—that they would focus on my care and fight for the best outcome. She kept her word. At one point, a doctor I was seeing tried to overcharge me, but they were able stop it immediately. Later, when Geico (the at-fault driver’s insurance) and my own insurance, State Farm, pushed back and tried to deny parts of my claim, Heather didn’t give up. They fought hard and made sure I received the full payout from both. In the end, I received a settlement 85% higher than anything I’ve ever gotten before. The entire team went above and beyond for me, and I never once felt taken advantage of. If you’re looking for an ethical, trustworthy law firm that truly puts their clients first, Balaban Law is the one you want in your corner.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Balaban Law, and especially Heather. From start to finish, she was incredibly kind, patient, and supportive during a time that could have been very stressful for my family and me. Heather truly went above and beyond, she communicated clearly, stayed on top of everything, and made sure we felt informed and cared for every step of the way. Her professionalism combined with genuine compassion made all the difference, and it’s something you don’t come across often. My family and I are extremely grateful for everything she did for us. If you’re looking for a law firm that actually cares about their clients and treats you like a person, not just a case, I highly recommend Balaban Law and Heather in particular.

My experience with the law firm was smooth, painless, informative, and reassuring thanks to Heather. She communicated in a timely manner everytime I had a question and went above & beyond to ensure I got the best possible outcome. I’m truly grateful I had her to walk me through this stressful and unexpected event. <3 Would absolutely recommend and return if ever needed!

I was driving to church when another driver, who had fallen asleep at the wheel, T-boned me. The impact was terrifying, and though I was lucky to escape major injuries, I was left shaken, confused, and completely unsure of what to do next. I didn’t know how accidents worked, how to handle insurance, or even how to navigate the medical bills piling up. I felt lost. That’s when I reached out to **Heather Hernandez** From the very first call, Heather didn’t just handle my case—she *cared* for me. She patiently walked me through every step, answered all my panicked questions, and made sure I never felt alone in the process. She fought tirelessly on my behalf, dealing with the insurance companies, medical paperwork, and legal hurdles so I could focus on healing. Thanks to Heather’s dedication, not only did I receive a fair settlement, but she also helped me and catch up on the bills that had been weighing me down. She went above and beyond, treating me like family instead of just another client. If you’ve been in an accident and don’t know where to turn, I *beg* you to reach out to Heather. They don’t just work for you—they stand *with* you, fighting to make things right when life feels completely unfair. I’ll forever be grateful for their kindness, expertise, and unwavering support. **Thank you, Heather and Balaban Law—you truly saved me.** If you’re reading this and need help, don’t wait. Call !!

I was referred to paralegal, Heather Hernandez at Balaban Law Firm after I was rear ended. I must rave about Heather. Instantly she took care of me and consistently answered all my questions in a kind and professional manner. She guided me through the entire process and provided me with timelines. My entire interaction has been seamless as they also helped obtain my records and bills from my chiropractic, physical therapy, and acupuncture care appointments. Absolutely everything was taken care of by Balaban Law. The entire process took 3 months from beginning to end when I received a settlement for far more than I expected. Heather and Olga, thank you so much for your thorough and quick responses, even after hours. I am a highly satisfied client.

I remain grateful to Olga (the lawyer) for her diligence with my case. I spent over a year working with her and the team on my case and my husband's case. I am incredibly thankful for how our cases/settlements were handled. Olga truly is great in her efforts to secure the best settlement amount for her clients!

They do an excellent job and are very kind to their clients, I am very grateful, thank you
