Why Hire a Personal Injury Attorney?

Insurance companies are not on your side. Adjusters aim to minimize payouts, often offering far less than your claim is worth. An experienced lawyer handles insurers, calculates damages, and prepares for trial if necessary.

At Mario Varela Law, we work on contingency—no fee unless we win—so you pay nothing out of pocket.
