I never in a million years thought I’d need a personal injury lawyer. Three months after the insurance company stopped returning my calls, it was time to find an attorney. From the minute I met Ilya D. Frangos. I knew I would be in capable hands. Throughout the process he kept me informed, answered my questions, listened to my concerns, discussed my options and was extremely knowledgeable and supportive. He always returned my calls/​emails promptly which I very much appreciated. I would not hesitate to recommend Ilya and the Law Offices of Galine, Frye & Fitting. Although I hope I won’t need an Attorney in the future, if I do — it would definitely be him!

Unfortunately we had the need to hire a law firm to represent us against a trucking company due to an auto accident — Fortunately we were put in the hands of Ilya Frangos at Galine, Frye & Fitting. From our very first consultation to the day we settled we felt well taken care of — we were never treated as another case or as a potential cash cow but as people that had lives impacted by an accident. Ilya cared for our well being and encouraged us to to get follow up treatment — regardless of the outcome of the case, he wanted to ensure we did not sustain life long injuries. Ilya never rushed the treatment process, continued to check in with us and waited until we had been released by our medical providers. Once release Ilya kicked into high gear and worked tirelessly to ensure that we received a proper settlement. This office is the real deal, if you are looking for a top notch firm — look no further — this is it!

I was fortunate enough to have been represented by this firm in a personal injury case recently. From my very first consultation to the finalization of the paperwork, I was treated with the utmost dignity and respect. I can honestly say that John Frye and ilya Frangos went far above and beyond to resolve my case and help me move on from the incident. They were accessible and informative through out the entire process. I feel that they sincerely care about every client and in my case, wanted what was best for me. I am grateful for their help and guidance and will remember their kindness always.

Amazing experience. I had suffered an injury during my pregnancy at my job and though they were not able to take my case because the disability wasn’t permanent, they still spent a few hours with me to give me a solid sense of direction. Highly professional! Highly recommended!

Just received my settlement in the first brush with the world of personal injury and I could not be more pleased! Having never been injured in a car accident or dealt with insurance companies I was literally lost and unsure when I needed an attorney. The gods must have been smiling because from the very first day I walked into John Frye’s office I knew I was in good hands. John patiently listened and advised me through over a year of medical decisions, physical therapy, depositions, etc.
His partners are top notch and staff is always friendly and happy to help. I really felt like part of their family and even though my case is now settled I feel like I have one of the best legal resources in the bay area available to me.
I highly highly highly recommend John, Chantel, Ilya and Kim. At some point I had the pleasure to work with each of you and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart!

Ilya Frangos was recommended to me by a friend. I was in a serious motorcycle accident where the other party ran a stop sign and hit me. I had major injuries and the other insurance company involved offered me $ 4200 as a settlement. That would not have covered even a portion of my medical bills. Ilya Frangos and his team were committed to getting me a fair settlement. I was off work for 5 months, and Ilya helped me get a settlement that covered all of my lost wages, and paid off all the medical bills. Without the hard work and dedication of this law firm, I would be in serious financial trouble for an accident that was not my fault.

Chantel Fitting is as good as it gets. If you have been injured, need help and cant get what you know you deserve from one of the big insurance companies, then you have got to call Chantel. She will fight for you like it was her that was hurt. She is honest, really smart, a super hard worker and she is a professional. She has experience in and isn’t afraid to go all the way to a trial. She is an expert in jury selection, and really knows her stuff.
I cant say enough about this woman. i am forever grateful to her and her staff, they literally changed my life.
Chantel Fitting believed in me when no one else did. She cares. Call her. You wont be sorry you did.
