Thank you to Jeff and Chris for taking care of my dad's case so well, and thank you to Faris for bringing us to Montlick and helping with everything along the way! We really do appreciate you guys so much.
My attorney Paula Molano and her assistant have been very informative and professional. Paula always has the boxing gloves on: looking for the knockout. I appreciate what they're doing for me during this difficult time. Thank you.

I “Will” Refer my family and friends to Montlick and Associates anytime anywhere.Thank you guys for your support.I Promise I will not go nowhere else
When I was involved in a Automobile accident, my wife said you have to called Montlick & Associates. That was the best called I have ever made. Attorney Jason took my case and he did an exceptional Job from start to finish. He kept me informed throughout the process. Thanks Montlick & Associates for providing excellent service.
I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Scott Patterson who truly went above and beyond for my case. He's so amazing! His expertise and dedication were evident throughout the process, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thanks to the hard work and patience put into my case. I received a fantastic and fair settlement that exceeded my expectations. Furthermore, his assistant, Sarah Duncan, played an integral role in the success of my case. Her professionalism and support were outstanding. She consistently demonstrated a genuine concern for my needs and was always there to provide assistance whenever I needed it.Overall, I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding service provided by Attorney Scott Patterson and team. I wholeheartedly recommend Montlick & Associates law firm to anyone in need of legal representation. Thank you so much!
Michael Moran and his team took good care of me. They kept me in the loop of everything that was going on. All I did was do what they wanted me to do and kept them updated. I’m very satisfied with the outcome of my settlement. Thanks.
From day one to the end, I was kept informed about the status of my case. They answered all my questions I had and never made me feel that I was bothering them. I am very satisfied with the end result of my case and will recommend them to others. Thank you Attorney Jennifer and your Assistant Rachel for making me feel right at home as a part of the family. The Lord bless you both and your families in Jesus name Amen.
Mike Moran was very open and frank about how presented the case to me and his suggestion were on point. Thank you
On November 30, 2022 I experienced the worst injury that I have ever experienced at fault not my own, while on a quick out of town trip. Not only was I severely burned at an establishment, but I was denied representation by several firms where my incident happened. Unbeknownst to me just because an incident happens in a certain state doesn't mean you have to obtain representation there, which is how I had a turn around in defeat. Not only did Montlick & Associates instantly take my case, Ellen Forrester provided candor from the start on the pros, cons, and how she could deliver her services with the goal of fighting for me as her client being one that was truly heartfelt. From constant check ins from Dayna Clark (Ellen's Senior Legal Assistant), to pertinent information delivered directly from Ellen, I felt the utmost service with care was provided. Ellen was diligent in getting the best results no matter the fight. In the end I had a successful outcome and hopefully raised enough awareness for an incident this traumatic not to happen to anyone else. I Thank Ellen & Dayna for all their hard work and would recommend more stars if I could based on their client care alone.
This is an amazing company! I couldn’t have chose a better attorney for this car accident.Thankyou Kaylee Wiley & Nives Juric ❤️
I would like to say how thankful I am to have had the experience of having MONTLICK & ASSOCIATES represent me on my case. Miss Nives Juric and her staff Kaley Wiley were amazing. They were on top of things and never made me feel that I was alone. Evetime I called they friendly staff always answered with what seemed like a smile and always cheerfull. My case has lasted about 2 years due to medical needs being meet etc. Miss Nives and her staff never let me down they keep me encouraged and uplifted to make sure I didn't give up during my journey with them. They handled all my medical needs AND Made sure that i lacked for nothing. They constantly stayed in contact with me via phone call ,email, mail to make sure all my needs were met.They treated me more than just family and i was not just another case to them I was and still am like family. And my concerns were met as though they were doing it for a close relative. At no time was money discussed first it was all about my health status. So I am honored to say that I trust MONTLICK & ASSOCIATES with my whole life. I pray that they all be blessed each day. And that the favor of GOD shine upon each of you in the office everyday. So if you are looking for someone who cares about all your needs from start to finish then Miss Nives Juric and the MONTLICK team are your people or should I say family.Thank YouJESSIE MCCUSKER

I'm a first time patron of Montlick and Associates and didn't really know what the process would be. Thankfully, my case was appointed to Mr. Liu and I knew from the initial conversation that I would be in good hands. Every question I had was answered and every worry was quickly swept away. Thank you, Mr. Liu!
Thank you Jason and Kalana for working on my son's case. No one else would take this case because it was so difficult and you guys worked hard on making sure that he got his settlement. I wish I could give you guys a hundred Stars because that's how amazing you are thanks again.

Thank you Sara Root.
It took on awhile to settle but they got the job done. Thank you again
I am so happy with the results that Jason got for my case. All other practices wouldn't take my case but not Jason. He knew I had a bad fall and injury. He and Esmerelda worked so hard and informed me of every detail immediately. I highly recommend their services. If I ever need an accident attorney, I will not hesitate to call Jason. Thank you and I hope you enjoyed the goodies I baked for you. I will forever be grateful for the settlement you got for me.
Excellent as always. This is the second case that has been worked out for me. Ellen Forrester and Dayna Clark have always gone above and beyond. Thank you so much.

We Know What It Takes to Win® Wrongful Death Cases

According to CNBC and John Hopkins University, over 250,000 people die from medical errors every year in the United States, making it the third leading cause of death. Other common causes of accidental or wrongful deaths include:

  • Car accidents
  • Trucking and bus accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents
  • Bicycle accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Building fires
  • Workplace accidents
  • Slips/trips and falls
  • Defective consumer products
  • Contaminated food
  • Defective medical devices
  • Dangerous/contaminated prescription drugs

The presence of negligent, reckless, or intentional conduct by an individual or company is most commonly the cause of wrongful deaths.

Accidental/wrongful death compensation

The rights of plaintiffs to pursue wrongful death claims are subject to the law of the state they occur in, and the types of damages recovered can significantly. Compensation that may be available includes:

  • Full economic and non-economic value of the life of the victim
  • Loss of companionship
  • Value of support and services
  • Punitive damages
  • Burial and funeral expenses
  • Medical expenses
  • Pain and suffering of the deceased

Lawsuits associated with wrongful death, because of their enormous value, require thorough investigation. At Montlick we have extensive experience pursuing wrongful death cases from start to finish, and we know what it takes to secure the compensation grieving families need.

The clock begins ticking on the statutes of limitations in wrongful death cases on the date of the incident that caused the victim’s death, but the amount of time a person has to file the claim varies significantly depending on the relevant state laws.

We advise clients to take action as soon as possible as some states have shorter statutes of limitations than others. In auto accident cases, insurance policies owned by the victim or the victim’s family often also have timely notification requirements. This means if a claim is not filed in the time given in the insurance policy, the family of the deceased may lose valuable compensation.

Important evidence necessary for a case can disappear or become destroyed, and witnesses can go missing or forget what happened as more time passes as well, increasing the importance of acting quickly.
