Berry Smith and Bartell

I would like to say my experience was great and I recommend them highly. I would like to acknowledge and thank Claudia A., for all her help. She was so attentive and always making sure I was comfortable with the decisions being made as well as taking care of all my concerns. Her people skills are so carrying. I don't take lightly your hard work and humbleness. The Office manager Melissa as well was very professional and carrying...Thank you both for making me feel valuable when I most needed it...

I have a workers comp injury that the insurance stopped returning calls and ignoring the claim. I have had other workers comp injuries and claims so sadly I am not new to the game. I have used another firm but they had me doing all the work and so this time around I wanted to get a new firm. I could not even speak with an attorney. Jessica Alvarez took my calls and I spoke with her. and she said if I can get claim number (again the work comp was ignoring the injury and avoiding giving me the claim# which is 100% illegal) well I understood that no one can represent anyone without documentation and what not. After getting the documentation and claim number Jessica Alvarez still refused to forward to an attorney. I would avoid this law firm 100% if you can not speak with a lawyer with all documentation and a claim number its basically they only want multi million dollar suits or want you to do all the work and then you pay them for it. The way Jessica Alvarez came off after multiple calls was first all happy to get info then press you to get more info. in the end was very stuck up. She tried to say no one will take a case without documentation. I let he know I have it but Im not going to send it in the mail paying for confirmation and everything. If we could meet in office I can bring it in, and we can go from there. Jessica's response is noone in our office will see you with out documentation. so it was a spinning wheel. too bad for them. I see why they have a 3.3 star review and hopefully they get better call buffers to 1 make more money for themselves and 2 help people out

took on my husbands case and although it took a very long time to settle (not the firms fault at all) they hardly took any cut of the settlement and treated us with nothing but professionalism, respect and fought for what we deserved! i would HIGHLY recommended this firm for all work comp needs. Maria the Paralegal was the best and helped us. front staff is not very friendly and seems like they HATE their job but the back office staff is highly professional. Todd Berry is one of the best best attorneys i could ever experience and really knows his stuff. answers all of our questions and treated us like family

"Horrible Experience " they were very unprofessional. They handled not only one but two of our cases! I believe they need experience professionals. At some point I felt they were against me instead of with. I so regeret going with this firm. I do not recommend it. Representation was poorly handled. I believe they have rude behavior-especially reception, failure to communicate with their clients, both my cases were handled by a mere paralegal! Eventhough they stated they meet and review case with attorney..I personally only met with attorney one time and never to be seen again.If these reviews give us, consumers; customers; clients; patients a voice then it is only you to decide where to take your business!

It’s bad enough having to go through getting hurt at work twice. I had the opportunity to work with the Bakersfield office as well as Fresno office, both offices was very professional and made me feel they had my back and was very supportive and understanding with other life situations. I would definitely recommend this firm and my only advice will be trust and let Berry Smith and Bartell handle your case.
