A tenacious and compassionate advocate who delivered justice

After a serious car accident left me with significant injuries, navigating the insurance and legal process felt overwhelming. I chose Hazel S. Chang based on her firm's reputation and her specific recognition in personal injury litigation. From our first meeting, her depth of experience was evident. She didn't just see my case as a file; she understood the profound impact it had on my life and family in Los Angeles. Hazel's diverse general practice background, honed over 15 years, proved invaluable. She anticipated every defense tactic the insurance company used and was a formidable negotiator. When they refused a fair settlement, her trial readiness was clear—she is truly a seasoned trial attorney as her profile states. Her team at Wilshire Law Firm was meticulous, but it was Hazel's strategic guidance and personal reassurance that made the difference. We secured a settlement that fully covered my medical costs, lost wages, and provided for future care, far exceeding my initial expectations. Her compensation record is impressive for a reason. I am deeply grateful for her expertise, professionalism, and unwavering support during a difficult chapter.
