Legal Team

“When my family decided to spend the holidays in California, we never imagined that the rented van that we were traveling in from Disneyland to Northern California would be struck by a runaway eighteen wheel truck. Being overseas residents we asked our close friends and business colleagues for California Attorney recommendations. We interviewed many attorneys but chose attorney Joel H. Siegal from a long list of California litigation attorneys. Joel is intelligent, aggressive, responsive and compassionate. We could not have asked for more effective and professional legal counsel, than the Law Offices of Joel H. Siegal.”
— Fernando Cojuangco, Manila, Philippines
Result: The case was settled for $5 million

“Siegal & Richardson’s passion for justice was very apparent when the firm represented our family during our personal injury case. The follow up was prompt and thorough which was always reassuring during this process. We felt they kept us informed and prepared throughout the legal process without making us feel overwhelmed. We felt like they were feeling our pain and were looking out for us. Additionally, their choice of subject experts proved effective.”

“Joel is a great attorney but is also very personable. He cares about his clients getting to know them as individuals and their families. You are not a “case” with Joel, you are a person and a friend. Joel is also very creative and leaves no stone unturned resulting in some sizable settlements. I recommended several friends to Joel and they all raved about him. If you had some misfortune, I highly recommend Joel.”
— Thomas Kereszti, San Francisco, CA

“Siegal & Richardson helped me resolve several significant legal issues with individuals, and with both small and big companies that I was involved with. More importantly, they provided me with smart advice on how to manage each of the legal issues. They explained to me the risks and potential benefits from taking different legal routes. Together we set strategies to manage the legal issues. In all cases, my attorney was able to resolve all issues with results that exceeded my expectations. Previously I had experience with big firms, however, dealing with my attorney directly was refreshing, successful, efficient and economically beneficial.”

“I worked as a law clerk for Joel for 7 months beginning with the summer after my first year of law school. I learned a great deal about the law from working with Joel, but I learned more about how to be a great lawyer. Joel’s professionalism and commitment to achieving the best result possible for his clients was evident every day in the office. In the practice areas that Joel works, generally the lawsuits result from an unfortunate incident that has a huge impact on the client’s life. Thus, it is important to find a lawyer who you can trust and who has your best interests in mind. Joel absolutely fills these needs. He does an excellent job of making sure his clients are aware of where the cases are in the litigation process. He keeps the clients involved and informed, but at the same time makes the process very easy for his clients. His experience and wealth of knowledge in all areas of the law is impressive. I was also surprised at how efficiently he was able to balance complex and large numbers of cases as a solo attorney. I would absolutely recommend Joel if you are looking for an attorney in the SF Bay Area.”
