Called about a personal injury case the intake Debbie had a snotty bad attitude

Response from owner

Dear Ramona - In her over 35 years with our practice, I cannot recall a single person ever referring to Debbie as being either "snotty" or having a "bad attitude." Quite to the contrary, Debbie is wonderful and has actually developed many longstanding friendships/relationships with former clients. However, if that was your experience, I would like to do what I can to try to improve your opinion of our firm. If you are willing to discuss this matter (and your potential case) with me, please give me a call at your convenience.<br><br>Notwithstanding my sincere willingness to have a conversation with you, I have looked at all 18 of your Google Reviews and note that nearly all of them (15) are either 1 or 2 star reviews and ALL of them include negativity and complaints. Furthermore, I have now determined that it was you who (following your conversation with Debbie, in which she apparently explained in multiple ways [explaining multiple reasons] that your situation is not one that we can help with) called back and spoke to our receptionist (a different employee) in an extremely disrespectful manner ... resulting in her coming into my office sobbing & with tears streaming down her face.<br><br>I look forward to the opportunity to discuss any/all of the above with you.<br><br>Respectfully, Ryan Tomalas

Ryan and the team took great care of me. I’ve never been in a car accident and he held my hand through the whole process. It was a scary time for me, I didn’t know what to do but his team explained everything that I needed to do.

Response from owner

Thanks for the kind words Patrick! I was our honor to represent you.

I have known Mr. Tomalas in a professional capacity for about 14 years. When I was T-Boned on 10\16\25 by a person clearly under the influence coming out of Mr. Nice Guy on Newport Blvd, I was concerned as the other driver accused ME of hitting him! He pulled out of a parking lot, striking my vehicle in traffic. The drivers vehicle was totaled. Two days later? His insurance company called me offering 5,000. in cash. I suffered a dislocated kneecap, shoulder injuries and the resurgence of PTSD from a very similar accident in 1999. I contacted Ryan. He and his Team immediately jumped into action. I was provided referrals for comprehensive physical therapy with a team that evaluated me and provided comprehensive care for all injuries. In just over 2 1/4 months Tomalas Law firm was able to settle my case, in my favor increasing the settlement by 25 thousand dollars. They? Are AMAZING. Honor, Integrity, Honesty, Fairness, Resilience. Blessed by this this Law firm. Thank you.

Response from owner

B - Thanks so very much for trusting us with your case. I'm very happy that you are so pleased with the outcome & resolution!

Ryan Tomalas was absolutely incredible to work with. Our teenage son suffered a bite from a pit bull, and Ryan handled the entire case with so much care, empathy, and professionalism. He guided us through every step, made a difficult situation easy to navigate, and always ensured we felt heard and supported - especially since this was something we had never gone through before and hoped we’d never have to face. Thanks to Ryan, all medical needs were taken care of, and our son received the proper compensation he deserved. As a mother, I would never wish this experience on anyone, but if you ever find yourself in need of an attorney, Ryan is exactly the person you want in your corner. His entire staff was also incredibly caring, knowledgeable, and professional. I highly recommend the Tomalas Law Firm. They truly go above and beyond

Response from owner

Marisol - Thank you so very much for your extremely kind words. I am thrilled that you are so pleased with the outcome we achieved for your son. It was my honor to represent his interests and I thoroughly enjoyed working with you and your family. Best - Ryan

Ryan Tomalas represented me in a lawsuit involving a bike injury and my HOA that occurred at the gate of my residence. It involved extreme permanant injury to my teeth and mouth. I'm 71 years old. Biking was a large part of my life until that time. The journey that Ryan guided me and my family through was emotional, financial and more lengthy than I anticipated. He showed compassion, understanding and yes...even humor ...to get me through it successfully. He was always open to listening to me. He welcomed discussion and shared advise. He allowed me to make decisions but made sure I had all the facts related to the consequences of those decisions. I can not recommend him more highly. At a time when I was injured, confused and unaware what to do Ryan was there for me from beginning to end.

Response from owner

Debbie - Thank you for your kind words. I was honored to be your attorney and I am very happy that you were so pleased with both our representation and the outcome of your case.

Ryan Tomalas is not only a fine lawyer, he is an excellent communicator. When my wife and I experienced a serious auto accident we turned to the Tomalas Law Firm to handle our claim. Ryan and his staff clearly and patiently explained our options every step of the way. The firm also referred us to their network of medical providers to better understand and deal with our injuries. The efforts of Ryan and the Tomalas team led us to a fair and satisfactory outcome. We would recommend the Tomalas Law Firm without hesitation.

Response from owner

Dave - Thank you for your kind words & for trusting us with your case ... it was our true honor to represent you both!

We are incredibly grateful to Ryan and his team for their outstanding representation in our car accident claim. From the start, Ryan was extremely responsive, keeping us informed and explaining every step of the process in a clear and reassuring way. He went above and beyond by assisting us with our disability insurance company, educating us on how to effectively communicate with them. His professionalism, courtesy, and dedication made a stressful situation much easier to navigate. His team was also fantastic—always helpful and prompt in their responses. We highly recommend Ryan and his firm to anyone in need of legal representation. We were very happy with the outcome and the settelments from the insurance companies.

Response from owner

Ahmed - Thank you for your review and for trusting us to represent your wife and son!

Worked with Ryan on a recent serious auto accident on the freeway that almost took out my entire family, including a 3 month old baby. Needless to say it was the most traumatic event of my life. He was fantastic to work with and answered all of my questions and got back to me supper quickly on everything He went above and beyond what lawyers would normally do. He moved the case along very quickly and he got the family a payout more than we expected in a very timely manner. I even had a few questions about the case a few months later and he returned my phone calls within minutes of my correspondence. I can't not recommend Ryan and the Tomalas Law Firm enough, i was lucky to have them on my side.

Response from owner

Thank you for your review and your kind words. It was an honor to represent you and your family and I am very happy that you are pleased with the results we achieved!

Outstanding Legal Services! I had an excellent experience working with Tomalas Law Firm. Ryan Tomalas and his team were knowledgeable, professional, and truly dedicated to my case. From the very beginning, they took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and guided me through the entire process with confidence and expertise. Their attention to detail and commitment to achieving the best outcome made a huge difference. Thanks to their hard work and legal expertise, I was able to navigate my situation smoothly and successfully. Hands down, the best law firm in town! Unlike other attorneys I visited, they gave me the confidence and reassurance I needed. A huge thank you to Ryan and Garvin for their dedication, patience, and unwavering support. I highly recommend Tomalas Law Firm to anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy attorney!

Please research before hiring an attorney. I made the unfortunate mistake of hiring Ryan to be my attorney. By doing so I definitely got screwed out of more money. Ryan’s paperwork was shoddy, he was rude and did not listen, and when I asked for help I was ignored. I lost more money hiring them than I gained. Hidden fees and questionable billing. Ryan also ignored my phone calls, good luck getting a hold of him after he’s squeezed some money from your purse. He is only worried about how much money he can make and not about his clients. When I was “lucky” enough to get a hold of him he talked down to me and even raised his voice. Extremely unprofessional. Don’t be fooled by the high reviews like I was, I’m pretty sure they’re bought and paid for. I am only giving 1 star because Google won’t allow me to give 0.

Response from owner

Dear Sir/Mam,<br>I am concerned about the experience that you associate with our firm. Is it possible that you've mixed us up with another firm? <br>I've attempted to look into this to address your concerns with you directly; however, unlike ALL of our other reviews, the name associated with your review does not match any of our current or former clients. Also, our contingency fee is explicitly laid out in our Retainer Agreement (which our clients sign when they hire us) and, at the conclusion of each and every case, our clients receive a full and complete Statement of Accounting which accounts for all funds we recovered on their behalf (so I am unclear what "hidden fees and questionable billing" you may be referring to). <br>I would very much like the opportunity to discuss your concerns with you. Please call us at 949-756-8711. <br>Thank you, Ryan Tomalas<br>

My experience with Tomalas Law Firm has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I reached out, Ryan Tomalas and his team demonstrated unwavering dedication and professionalism. Ryan Tomalas himself is not only a seasoned attorney but also remarkably hands-on and diligent in his approach. His commitment to his clients' cases is truly commendable. Moreover, the other associates at the firm, such as Garvin Brown, are equally impressive. Their knowledge, expertise, and willingness to go above and beyond ensure that clients receive the best possible legal representation. The incredible support staff provided invaluable assistance throughout the process, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and efficiently. In my personal injury case, every detail was handled with care and precision. Ryan and his team left no stone unturned in advocating for my rights and ensuring that I received the compensation I deserved. I strongly recommend the Tomalas Law Firm. Their professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for their clients make them stand out in the legal field. I am so thankful for their services and the positive outcome they achieved for me. If you're in need of legal representation, look no further than Tomalas Law Firm. They are truly the best in the business.

Response from owner

Ashley - Thanks for posting such a nice review! I enjoyed representing you and am happy that you are so pleased with the outcome!

We had the pleasure of doing business with Roger Tamalas at Tamalas Law Firm after a car accident in which we were hit by someone running a red light. The entire group at this law firm is so helpful, knowledgeable, responsive, professional and very approachable. Roger outlined the procedure for a case like ours, and gave us time frames of what to expect in the following months after the accident. He did an excellent job of overseeing our medical statements that we received and worked smoothly and efficiently with Medicare and our insurance adjusters. My husband and I cannot give enough praise to Roger and his team for providing us with the outcome and settlement that we received. We would recommend Tamalas Law Firm to anyone in need of the best representation that is available.

Donna - <br>Thank you for putting your trust in our office ... we enjoyed representing you both!

August 2021, I was in a traumatic electric street dirt bike accident, that left me in a coma for 10 days... I had no idea what was to come in the future and what my next steps were. A family friend suggested I talked to Ryan Tomalas, who specialized in motor vehicle accidents, dog bites, and premises liability. Personally I wanted nothing to do with this case, I wanted to move on and recover as fast as possible. Ryan assured me that he would take care of everything, and I wouldn't pay a dime out of my own pocket. I put my full trust in him and he never let me down. Ryan was helpful, kind, and got things done; he made sure my family and I were up to date on everything happening. Ryan asked me how I was doing before any business he had to discuss. Over a year later, he is still putting in the work for my case, assuring that I get as most out of it, that I deserve. I am thankful everyday for this law firm team. The answer is yes, go with Tomalas Law Firm, if you want the most out of your case. They have great communication, professionalism, family oriented lawyers, and success in their cases. I would suggest Ryan to anyone, whom got themselves in a sticky situation. I could never say it too much but... THANK YOU for helping me in my time of need, when I was feeling vulnerable and helpless, I am beyond grateful.

Response from owner

Kailynn - Thank you for your kind words. <br>Yours is a case that I will never forget. I was honored to represent you and, although we collected all of the insurance proceeds (and more), I still wish that there was more we could have done. <br>I'm thrilled with how well you've continued to recover from your injuries.<br>Please keep in touch and pass on my best wishes to your family.

After being hit by a driver under the influence, my car was totaled and I was lucky. Ryan Tomalas did what had to be done to get me the proper medical attention as well as reimbursement for the car. I never would’ve known what to do, or how to do it without him. He truly is an amazing attorney.

Response from owner

Karen - Thank you for your review and for continuing to reach out to our office for legal direction/guidance on other issues! We appreciate the trust you have in our firm!
