I had an excellent experience working with Vanessa and her entire team. Because of my line of work, I can be difficult to reach at times, but Vanessa and her team were always incredibly patient and understanding of my schedule. That meant a lot to me and took a lot of stress out of the process.
They were also great about keeping me in the loop every step of the way. I was always informed about updates, deadlines, and any paperwork that needed to be completed, which made everything feel organized and manageable.
Whenever I spoke with Vanessa, she was friendly, professional, and very clear in answering my questions. She always explained what the next steps would be and made sure I understood the process, which gave me a lot of confidence in my case.
Most importantly, Vanessa and her team were able to settle my case with an exceptional result that truly made a positive difference in my life. I’m extremely grateful for their hard work, dedication, and support, and I would highly recommend Vanessa and her team to anyone looking for knowledgeable and compassionate legal representation.
I was recommended to Vanessa with Kalfayan Merjanian through a friend and I am so glad I chose to go this route. Vanessa and her team have been beyond helpful throughout this time, updating me every step of the way. They made a difficult and complicated process, feel doable and approachable. Guiding me in the right direction and helping alleviate the stress of the situation. I know I would not have been able to achieve this much of a win on my own. Grateful to her and the team!

The team that assisted me at Kalfayan Merjanian were very helpful throughout the entire process! My lawyer was Vanessa Cardinale and her paralegal Vivian. They worked very hard to assist throughout the lawsuit. They made it easy to comprehend and manage, carrying all the workload and making sure all my needs were met. They are excellent at communicating in an efficient and timely manner. They are lovely people who genuinely care about the needs of their clients! 10/10

I can’t say enough about John Shaver! I had no idea what to do after my car accident and was referred to KM by my chiropractor. I’m so glad! John worked so hard for me in my case, was extremely meticulous, competent, and gave me all the information and options I needed to make each decision along the way. It was a long process, and he never ran out of energy for me, and for justice. He is a brilliant man, and honest lawyer, and unbelievably generous. I am so grateful he was assigned to me, it was a true blessing in a very hard season. Well done, John, and THANK YOU for everything! 🙏🏽
My wife and I cannot recommend Vanessa Cardinale and the team at Kalfayan Merjanian, LLP highly enough. From the very beginning of our personal injury claim, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism, knowledge, and compassion. Vanessa took the time to thoroughly understand our situation, explaining every step of the process in clear terms and ensuring we felt supported throughout.
Their expertise in personal injury law was evident, as they navigated the complexities of our case with confidence and skill. The team’s attention to detail and dedication to securing the best possible outcome for me was truly remarkable. They were always available to answer our questions, provide updates, and offer reassurance when we needed it most.
Thanks to Vanessa and the firm, we received a settlement that exceeded our expectations and helped us move forward after such a challenging time. If you’re looking for a team that genuinely cares about your well-being and will fight tirelessly on your behalf, look no further than Kalfayan Merjanian, LLP.

Vanessa was assigned to my case and her and her team took care of everything. They made sure to communicate with me at every step and I can't say how much I appreciated it.
My mother ended up getting into a car accident a few years later and I immediately reached out to Vanessa. I can't recommend them enough, they always get the job done!!

I would highly recommend Kalfayan Merjanian. They are there for you to help to answer any questions or just check in on how you are feeling. From day one until the closing of your case (5 years in my case) you have someone on your side. Thank you!
I was in a bad car accident last year and I was recommended to work with Kalfayan Merjanian and I’m glad I did. Getting into a car accident and all the aftermath of an accident is stressful, but working with this firm it made it all a breeze for me. They helped me find the medical care I needed and made appointments for me. Very communicative throughout the process. It was a pleasure working with everyone from this firm.
