About

I grew up in Southern California. My first real bike was a Huffy dirt bike my folks bought second hand for my eighth birthday and I’ve been two-wheeling ever since.I moved on to a road bike as a teen, earning my Bicycling merit badge as a Boy Scout. Later, mountain bikes, hybrids and cruisers have all gotten me around, whether around town on errands, on the bike paths with my kids or on longer rides with other cyclists.As an attorney, I’ve spent the last fourteen years representing people injured due to other’s carelessness or recklessness and now focus my efforts representing cyclists. If you or a loved one has been injured while on a bike, please contact us for a free consultation.I am active within the local cycling community and support multiple organizations seeking safer streets throughout California. I promote bicycle advocacy, increased adoption and support for cycling and improved safety and convenience for cyclists; including the health, transportation, and environmental benefits of cycling for both individuals and communities, cycling and motoring skills, and increasing public and political support for bicycling.

I was referred to Attorney Max Draitser by another firm and I am grateful that they introduced me to him. Max exemplified professionalism, care, and accessibility from day one. During our initial meeting, he made me feel comfortable and provided an optimistic plan with no promises on how he was going to handle my case. He remained genuine and truthful through out the process. I suffered a life altering injury and I needed an attorney who'd represent my best interest in dealing with this matter in hopes of preserving my quality of life once the dust settled. Max went the extra mile for me. He always returned phone calls when I had questions and he always provided solutions. Max was able to successfully attain a fair and equitable settlement for me while aligning me with medical pros who helped guide me through the physical treatment process. The interpersonal interaction that I had with Max Draitser softened the arduous task of physical recovery. He fought for me and I'd highly recommended him to fight for you should you have an unfortunate accident/injury experience that needs great legal representation.

I was involved in a hit and run in 2015. My car was left damaged and I suffered bodily injuries including a concussion and lasting spinal injuries. The driver fled on foot, leaving their vehicle behind. After 2 months we were able to track down a driver and insurance policy. The driver’s insurance company made me feel like I was making up injuries and downplaying the whole thing. They tried to dismiss everything for pennies as well. The damage was to the rear of my vehicle and from directly behind you could see it was hit, but not as much as if you looked from the side and saw the car was a foot shorter. Anyways, the driver’s insurance sent me a black and white lo-res photo from the back stating that the damage was minimal and that there’s no way I could have the injuries I was claiming. It was at this point I started researching how to find a lawyer as I knew there was going to be no other way. I spent the next 6-8 weeks researching and narrowed down to a few candidates. I chose Max because not only did he have great reviews but he was extremely attentive during our meeting and was extremely personable. He walked me through everything and made sure I was comfortable with everything and the possibility of a long timeline before moving forward. We figured out what the case was worth and went after the insurance for that amount. The entire case took short of 3 years because of the opposing counsel refusing to settle and continually delaying the case. As time went on the settlement offers slowly increased, but they were still miles short of where we were. Max repeatedly told me that at any point I felt I needed to take the money and end the case he was 100% behind me on it. About a month before the trial the offers were coming in around 75-85% of what we were demanding. Now I will say at this point both sides would have been well off, but max again told me that he was willing to go as far as I wanted to and still had my back. It was a true testament to his character and how he really did want to do what I wanted and not what a typical lawyer would do to get a quick buck and run. A week before trial they settled for full ask and I couldn’t be happier. I feel like I’m the end I not only had an excellent attorney but that I gained a friend. Max will be my first call should I ever need those services in the future.

I was hit by a guy who was speeding and the insurance company put me at fault! I hired Max and he did a great job for me; I couldn't be happier!

I was involved in an unfortunate car accident September of 2011, that left me unable to physically work for months and emotionally in shambles. I was having trouble being in any vehicle, sleeping at night was nearly impossible because of the pain and trauma. It wasn't until after getting a referral to speak with Mr Draitser, that I began to feel confident to get the treatment I needed but feared being able to afford. Having Max on my case gave me immediate emotional relief. From the minute we met, he helped me to see I deserved to feel 100% again, and that he could help to get me there. He was open and honest with me the whole way through, answering all of my calls, emails and worries with great swiftness. I am grateful that I haven't had to have a ton of legal assistance, however I know Max is a rarity among Lawyers. He really took great care and worked hard to help me succeed in winning my case and even more importantly to feel better! I hope that neither I nor any of my loved ones are in a situation such as this again- but I know I would hire Max in a heartbeat.

I was involved in a hit-and-run accident in March of 2012 while riding my bike. The car hit me while I was riding my bike across a crosswalk with a walk sign on. I went to the emergency room that day but it took me a few weeks to realize that my injuries were permanent. I was angry, depressed, and in great deal of pain. By the time I got a copy of the police report and realized that a witness had identified the driver, months had passed by. I kept expecting the other side (AKA the driver and his insurance carrier Wawanesa insurance) to "do the right thing" and I was disappointed by their actions over and over. I was disappointed that the driver hit me and drove off, I was disappointed that he lied about hitting me and I was most disappointed that Wawanesa Insurance would refuse to reimburse me for my medical expenses until they were legally forced to. After dealing with lawyers that represent Wawanesa insurance for years, one thing is clear: they will use every dirty trick in the book to make you give up the fight. I knew that was I was telling the truth but that doesn't matter unless you have a lawyer that is ready to step up and be a true advocate for you. I was very lucky to have Mr. Max Draitser on my side in the courtroom along with Mr. Brian Breiter. Last week my case went to trial at long last. This is first time that I have ever been in a courtroom, much less as the plaintiff. Walking into that courtroom, I felt like a stranger in a strange land. Max and Brian saw to it that I was well prepared for what was about to happen but I was still very nervous. Nerves aside, I knew that Max and Brian were excellent at what they do and they would do everything they could to help me win. Brian and Max's courtroom styles complement each other perfectly. Brian has the confidence and charisma that gives you feeling that everything will work out fine and Max has a calm and assured energy that lets you know that he is aware of everything that is happening has your back no matter what. My case was not an easy one but Max and Brian were well prepared and fought for me with every ounce of their being. I was continually amazed at how they anticipated what was needed at each critical moment. I am happy to say that we won and justice was finally served. I was able to get damages and I am grateful. I think equally important to me was the fact that a jury found the driver responsible for causing all this heartache and pain and I was so relieved when they did. I will never be able to Max, Brian, Mark and everyone else that helped bring this matter to a successful close. I hope I never need to a trial litigator again but if I do, I would want Mr. Max Draitser by my side.

Max really helped me with a car accident case. The guy turned left in front of me and remarkably his insurance company put me 50% at fault! On recommendation from a former client of Max's I met with him. He reassured me and at the end of the day, the insurance company folded. Highly recommend.

I was referred to Max by another lawyer for his help with my motocycle accident and dealing with the other driver's insurance company. Max was very helpful with explaining the whole process, keeping me up to date and getting me to resolution without expense to me. I appreciated his use of technology - being a techno geek myself by trade. If you need the assistance of a personal injury attorney, I highly recommend Max Draitser be your representation.

Upon being injured in a motorcycle accident, a friend of mine referred me to Max Draitser. It was the first time I was involved in a traffic accident and taken to the Emergency Services. There, I was treated for several injuries. I left the hospital with crutches and a removable cast on my leg and a staggering medical bill. The last things I wanted to deal with after this accident were both the legal and the insurance aspects. I was emotionally distraught, in physical pain, and confused about what the next steps would be. Immobilized at home, Max kindly offered to come to my place and assist me in assessing the situation. From then on, Max handled my claim, referred me to a local chiropractor to help with my recovery and a MRI exam was done. Moreover, I did not have to pay for any of the medical expenses needed during my convalescence. Max was efficient, caring and always kept me posted on the pending details of my case. A discussion never ended without knowing what the next steps were and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Finally, I quickly received a substantial settlement check from the insurance covering not only all my medical expenses but also the cost of my (then wrecked and unusable) motorcycle, my clothes and moral compensation. If you have been in an accident and are in need of a dedicated, experienced and compassionate personal injury lawyer, I highly recommend you give Max Draitser a call.

Max is an extremely professional, diligent and thorough lawyer yet still sympathetic through the entire process. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and my experience working with Max. Max represented my infant son and I who were victims in a car accident with a city worker. We understood that due to the nature of the situation that we would have a bit of a fight on our hands going up against the city. Max handled it with much tenacity and guided me through the entire case. Thank you Max!

It was at this point I started researching how to find a lawyer as I knew there was going to be no other way. I spent the next 6-8 weeks researching and narrowed down to a few candidates. I chose Max because not only did he have great reviews but he was extremely attentive during our meeting and was extremely personable. He walked me through everything and made sure I was comfortable with everything and the possibility of a long timeline before moving forward. We figured out what the case was worth and went after the insurance for that amount. The entire case took short of 3 years because of the opposing counsel refusing to settle and continually delaying the case. As time went on the settlement offers slowly increased, but they were still miles short of where we were. Max repeatedly told me that at any point I felt I needed to take the money and end the case he was 100% behind me on it. About a month before the trial the offers were coming in around 75-85% of what we were demanding. Now I will say at this point both sides would have been well off, but max again told me that he was willing to go as far as I wanted to and still had my back. It was a true testament to his character and how he really did want to do what I wanted and not what a typical lawyer would do to get a quick buck and run. A week before trial they settled for full ask and I couldn’t be happier. I feel like I’m the end I not only had an excellent attorney but that I gained a friend. Max will be my first call should I ever need those services in the future.

I was hit by a guy who was speeding and the insurance company put me at fault! I hired Max and he did a great job for me; I couldn't be happier!

He is an expert, and he constantly kept me updated on my case. He worked hard to help me to get the most from my accident. Highly recommended!

I was involved in an unfortunate car accident September of 2011, that left me unable to physically work for months and emotionally in shambles. I was having trouble being in any vehicle, sleeping at night was nearly impossible because of the pain and trauma. It wasn't until after getting a referral to speak with Mr Draitser, that I began to feel confident to get the treatment I needed but feared being able to afford. Having Max on my case gave me immediate emotional relief. From the minute we met, he helped me to see I deserved to feel 100% again, and that he could help to get me there. He was open and honest with me the whole way through, answering all of my calls, emails and worries with great swiftness. I am grateful that I haven't had to have a ton of legal assistance, however I know Max is a rarity among Lawyers. He really took great care and worked hard to help me succeed in winning my case and even more importantly to feel better! I hope that neither I nor any of my loved ones are in a situation such as this again- but I know I would hire Max in a heartbeat.

I was involved in a hit-and-run accident in March of 2012 while riding my bike. The car hit me while I was riding my bike across a crosswalk with a walk sign on. I went to the emergency room that day but it took me a few weeks to realize that my injuries were permanent. I was angry, depressed, and in great deal of pain. By the time I got a copy of the police report and realized that a witness had identified the driver, months had passed by. I kept expecting the other side (AKA the driver and his insurance carrier Wawanesa insurance) to "do the right thing" and I was disappointed by their actions over and over. I was disappointed that the driver hit me and drove off, I was disappointed that he lied about hitting me and I was most disappointed that Wawanesa Insurance would refuse to reimburse me for my medical expenses until they were legally forced to. After dealing with lawyers that represent Wawanesa insurance for years, one thing is clear: they will use every dirty trick in the book to make you give up the fight. I knew that was I was telling the truth but that doesn't matter unless you have a lawyer that is ready to step up and be a true advocate for you. I was very lucky to have Mr. Max Draitser on my side in the courtroom along with Mr. Brian Breiter. Last week my case went to trial at long last. This is first time that I have ever been in a courtroom, much less as the plaintiff. Walking into that courtroom, I felt like a stranger in a strange land. Max and Brian saw to it that I was well prepared for what was about to happen but I was still very nervous. Nerves aside, I knew that Max and Brian were excellent at what they do and they would do everything they could to help me win. Brian and Max's courtroom styles complement each other perfectly. Brian has the confidence and charisma that gives you feeling that everything will work out fine and Max has a calm and assured energy that lets you know that he is aware of everything that is happening has your back no matter what. My case was not an easy one but Max and Brian were well prepared and fought for me with every ounce of their being. I was continually amazed at how they anticipated what was needed at each critical moment. I am happy to say that we won and justice was finally served. I was able to get damages and I am grateful. I think equally important to me was the fact that a jury found the driver responsible for causing all this heartache and pain and I was so relieved when they did. I will never be able to Max, Brian, Mark and everyone else that helped bring this matter to a successful close. I hope I never need to a trial litigator again but if I do, I would want Mr. Max Draitser by my side.

Max really helped me with a car accident case. The guy turned left in front of me and remarkably his insurance company put me 50% at fault! On recommendation from a former client of Max's I met with him. He reassured me and at the end of the day, the insurance company folded. Highly recommend.

I was referred to Max by another lawyer for his help with my motocycle accident and dealing with the other driver's insurance company. Max was very helpful with explaining the whole process, keeping me up to date and getting me to resolution without expense to me. I appreciated his use of technology - being a techno geek myself by trade. If you need the assistance of a personal injury attorney, I highly recommend Max Draitser be your representation.

Upon being injured in a motorcycle accident, a friend of mine referred me to Max Draitser. It was the first time I was involved in a traffic accident and taken to the Emergency Services. There, I was treated for several injuries. I left the hospital with crutches and a removable cast on my leg and a staggering medical bill. The last things I wanted to deal with after this accident were both the legal and the insurance aspects. I was emotionally distraught, in physical pain, and confused about what the next steps would be. Immobilized at home, Max kindly offered to come to my place and assist me in assessing the situation. From then on, Max handled my claim, referred me to a local chiropractor to help with my recovery and a MRI exam was done. Moreover, I did not have to pay for any of the medical expenses needed during my convalescence. Max was efficient, caring and always kept me posted on the pending details of my case. A discussion never ended without knowing what the next steps were and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Finally, I quickly received a substantial settlement check from the insurance covering not only all my medical expenses but also the cost of my (then wrecked and unusable) motorcycle, my clothes and moral compensation. If you have been in an accident and are in need of a dedicated, experienced and compassionate personal injury lawyer, I highly recommend you give Max Draitser a call.

Max is an extremely professional, diligent and thorough lawyer yet still sympathetic through the entire process. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and my experience working with Max. Max represented my infant son and I who were victims in a car accident with a city worker. We understood that due to the nature of the situation that we would have a bit of a fight on our hands going up against the city. Max handled it with much tenacity and guided me through the entire case. Thank you Max!

I was referred to Attorney Max Draitser by another firm and I am grateful that they introduced me to him. Max exemplified professionalism, care, and accessibility from day one. During our initial meeting, he made me feel comfortable and provided an optimistic plan with no promises on how he was going to handle my case. He remained genuine and truthful through out the process. I suffered a life altering injury and I needed an attorney who'd represent my best interest in dealing with this matter in hopes of preserving my quality of life once the dust settled. Max went the extra mile for me. He always returned phone calls when I had questions and he always provided solutions. Max was able to successfully attain a fair and equitable settlement for me while aligning me with medical pros who helped guide me through the physical treatment process. The interpersonal interaction that I had with Max Draitser softened the arduous task of physical recovery. He fought for me and I'd highly recommended him to fight for you should you have an unfortunate accident/injury experience that needs great legal representation.

I was involved in a hit and run in 2015. My car was left damaged and I suffered bodily injuries including a concussion and lasting spinal injuries. The driver fled on foot, leaving their vehicle behind. After 2 months we were able to track down a driver and insurance policy. The driver’s insurance company made me feel like I was making up injuries and downplaying the whole thing. They tried to dismiss everything for pennies as well. The damage was to the rear of my vehicle and from directly behind you could see it was hit, but not as much as if you looked from the side and saw the car was a foot shorter.

I was involved in a hit-and-run accident in March of 2012 while riding my bike. The car hit me while I was riding my bike across a crosswalk with a walk sign on. I went to the emergency room that day but it took me a few weeks to realize that my injuries were permanent. I was angry, depressed, and in great deal of pain. By the time I got a copy of the police report and realized that a witness had identified the driver, months had passed by. I kept expecting the other side (AKA the driver and his insurance carrier Wawanesa insurance) to "do the right thing" and I was disappointed by their actions over and over. I was disappointed that the driver hit me and drove off, I was disappointed that he lied about hitting me and I was most disappointed that Wawanesa Insurance would refuse to reimburse me for my medical expenses until they were legally forced to. After dealing with lawyers that represent Wawanesa insurance for years, one thing is clear: they will use every dirty trick in the book to make you give up the fight. I knew that was I was telling the truth but that doesn't matter unless you have a lawyer that is ready to step up and be a true advocate for you. I was very lucky to have Mr. Max Draitser on my side in the courtroom along with Mr. Brian Breiter. Last week my case went to trial at long last. This is first time that I have ever been in a courtroom, much less as the plaintiff. Walking into that courtroom, I felt like a stranger in a strange land. Max and Brian saw to it that I was well prepared for what was about to happen but I was still very nervous. Nerves aside, I knew that Max and Brian were excellent at what they do and they would do everything they could to help me win. Brian and Max's courtroom styles complement each other perfectly. Brian has the confidence and charisma that gives you feeling that everything will work out fine and Max has a calm and assured energy that lets you know that he is aware of everything that is happening has your back no matter what. My case was not an easy one but Max and Brian were well prepared and fought for me with every ounce of their being. I was continually amazed at how they anticipated what was needed at each critical moment. I am happy to say that we won and justice was finally served. I was able to get damages and I am grateful. I think equally important to me was the fact that a jury found the driver responsible for causing all this heartache and pain and I was so relieved when they did. I will never be able to Max, Brian, Mark and everyone else that helped bring this matter to a successful close. I hope I never need to a trial litigator again but if I do, I would want Mr. Max Draitser by my side.

Max really helped me with a car accident case. The guy turned left in front of me and remarkably his insurance company put me 50% at fault! On recommendation from a former client of Max's I met with him. He reassured me and at the end of the day, the insurance company folded. Highly recommend.

I was referred to Max by another lawyer for his help with my motocycle accident and dealing with the other driver's insurance company. Max was very helpful with explaining the whole process, keeping me up to date and getting me to resolution without expense to me. I appreciated his use of technology - being a techno geek myself by trade. If you need the assistance of a personal injury attorney, I highly recommend Max Draitser be your representation.

Upon being injured in a motorcycle accident, a friend of mine referred me to Max Draitser. It was the first time I was involved in a traffic accident and taken to the Emergency Services. There, I was treated for several injuries. I left the hospital with crutches and a removable cast on my leg and a staggering medical bill. The last things I wanted to deal with after this accident were both the legal and the insurance aspects. I was emotionally distraught, in physical pain, and confused about what the next steps would be. Immobilized at home, Max kindly offered to come to my place and assist me in assessing the situation. From then on, Max handled my claim, referred me to a local chiropractor to help with my recovery and a MRI exam was done. Moreover, I did not have to pay for any of the medical expenses needed during my convalescence. Max was efficient, caring and always kept me posted on the pending details of my case. A discussion never ended without knowing what the next steps were and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Finally, I quickly received a substantial settlement check from the insurance covering not only all my medical expenses but also the cost of my (then wrecked and unusable) motorcycle, my clothes and moral compensation. If you have been in an accident and are in need of a dedicated, experienced and compassionate personal injury lawyer, I highly recommend you give Max Draitser a call.

Max is an extremely professional, diligent and thorough lawyer yet still sympathetic through the entire process. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and my experience working with Max. Max represented my infant son and I who were victims in a car accident with a city worker. We understood that due to the nature of the situation that we would have a bit of a fight on our hands going up against the city. Max handled it with much tenacity and guided me through the entire case. Thank you Max!

I was referred to Attorney Max Draitser by another firm and I am grateful that they introduced me to him. Max exemplified professionalism, care, and accessibility from day one. During our initial meeting, he made me feel comfortable and provided an optimistic plan with no promises on how he was going to handle my case. He remained genuine and truthful through out the process. I suffered a life altering injury and I needed an attorney who'd represent my best interest in dealing with this matter in hopes of preserving my quality of life once the dust settled. Max went the extra mile for me. He always returned phone calls when I had questions and he always provided solutions. Max was able to successfully attain a fair and equitable settlement for me while aligning me with medical pros who helped guide me through the physical treatment process. The interpersonal interaction that I had with Max Draitser softened the arduous task of physical recovery. He fought for me and I'd highly recommended him to fight for you should you have an unfortunate accident/injury experience that needs great legal representation.

I was involved in a hit and run in 2015. My car was left damaged and I suffered bodily injuries including a concussion and lasting spinal injuries. The driver fled on foot, leaving their vehicle behind. After 2 months we were able to track down a driver and insurance policy. The driver’s insurance company made me feel like I was making up injuries and downplaying the whole thing. They tried to dismiss everything for pennies as well. The damage was to the rear of my vehicle and from directly behind you could see it was hit, but not as much as if you looked from the side and saw the car was a foot shorter. Anyways, the driver’s insurance sent me a black and white lo-res photo from the back stating that the damage was minimal and that there’s no way I could have the injuries I was claiming. It was at this point I started researching how to find a lawyer as I knew there was going to be no other way. I spent the next 6-8 weeks researching and narrowed down to a few candidates. I chose Max because not only did he have great reviews but he was extremely attentive during our meeting and was extremely personable. He walked me through everything and made sure I was comfortable with everything and the possibility of a long timeline before moving forward. We figured out what the case was worth and went after the insurance for that amount. The entire case took short of 3 years because of the opposing counsel refusing to settle and continually delaying the case. As time went on the settlement offers slowly increased, but they were still miles short of where we were. Max repeatedly told me that at any point I felt I needed to take the money and end the case he was 100% behind me on it. About a month before the trial the offers were coming in around 75-85% of what we were demanding. Now I will say at this point both sides would have been well off, but max again told me that he was willing to go as far as I wanted to and still had my back. It was a true testament to his character and how he really did want to do what I wanted and not what a typical lawyer would do to get a quick buck and run. A week before trial they settled for full ask and I couldn’t be happier. I feel like I’m the end I not only had an excellent attorney but that I gained a friend. Max will be my first call should I ever need those services in the future.

I was involved in an unfortunate car accident September of 2011, that left me unable to physically work for months and emotionally in shambles. I was having trouble being in any vehicle, sleeping at night was nearly impossible because of the pain and trauma. It wasn't until after getting a referral to speak with Mr Draitser, that I began to feel confident to get the treatment I needed but feared being able to afford. Having Max on my case gave me immediate emotional relief. From the minute we met, he helped me to see I deserved to feel 100% again, and that he could help to get me there. He was open and honest with me the whole way through, answering all of my calls, emails and worries with great swiftness. I am grateful that I haven't had to have a ton of legal assistance, however I know Max is a rarity among Lawyers. He really took great care and worked hard to help me succeed in winning my case and even more importantly to feel better! I hope that neither I nor any of my loved ones are in a situation such as this again- but I know I would hire Max in a heartbeat.

I appreciated his use of technology - being a techno geek myself by trade. If you need the assistance of a personal injury attorney, I highly recommend Max Draitser be your representation.

Upon being injured in a motorcycle accident, a friend of mine referred me to Max Draitser. It was the first time I was involved in a traffic accident and taken to the Emergency Services. There, I was treated for several injuries. I left the hospital with crutches and a removable cast on my leg and a staggering medical bill. The last things I wanted to deal with after this accident were both the legal and the insurance aspects. I was emotionally distraught, in physical pain, and confused about what the next steps would be. Immobilized at home, Max kindly offered to come to my place and assist me in assessing the situation. From then on, Max handled my claim, referred me to a local chiropractor to help with my recovery and a MRI exam was done. Moreover, I did not have to pay for any of the medical expenses needed during my convalescence. Max was efficient, caring and always kept me posted on the pending details of my case. A discussion never ended without knowing what the next steps were and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Finally, I quickly received a substantial settlement check from the insurance covering not only all my medical expenses but also the cost of my (then wrecked and unusable) motorcycle, my clothes and moral compensation. If you have been in an accident and are in need of a dedicated, experienced and compassionate personal injury lawyer, I highly recommend you give Max Draitser a call.

Max is an extremely professional, diligent and thorough lawyer yet still sympathetic through the entire process. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and my experience working with Max. Max represented my infant son and I who were victims in a car accident with a city worker. We understood that due to the nature of the situation that we would have a bit of a fight on our hands going up against the city. Max handled it with much tenacity and guided me through the entire case. Thank you Max!

I was referred to Attorney Max Draitser by another firm and I am grateful that they introduced me to him. Max exemplified professionalism, care, and accessibility from day one. During our initial meeting, he made me feel comfortable and provided an optimistic plan with no promises on how he was going to handle my case. He remained genuine and truthful through out the process. I suffered a life altering injury and I needed an attorney who'd represent my best interest in dealing with this matter in hopes of preserving my quality of life once the dust settled. Max went the extra mile for me. He always returned phone calls when I had questions and he always provided solutions. Max was able to successfully attain a fair and equitable settlement for me while aligning me with medical pros who helped guide me through the physical treatment process. The interpersonal interaction that I had with Max Draitser softened the arduous task of physical recovery. He fought for me and I'd highly recommended him to fight for you should you have an unfortunate accident/injury experience that needs great legal representation.

I was involved in a hit and run in 2015. My car was left damaged and I suffered bodily injuries including a concussion and lasting spinal injuries. The driver fled on foot, leaving their vehicle behind. After 2 months we were able to track down a driver and insurance policy. The driver’s insurance company made me feel like I was making up injuries and downplaying the whole thing. They tried to dismiss everything for pennies as well. The damage was to the rear of my vehicle and from directly behind you could see it was hit, but not as much as if you looked from the side and saw the car was a foot shorter. Anyways, the driver’s insurance sent me a black and white lo-res photo from the back stating that the damage was minimal and that there’s no way I could have the injuries I was claiming. It was at this point I started researching how to find a lawyer as I knew there was going to be no other way. I spent the next 6-8 weeks researching and narrowed down to a few candidates. I chose Max because not only did he have great reviews but he was extremely attentive during our meeting and was extremely personable. He walked me through everything and made sure I was comfortable with everything and the possibility of a long timeline before moving forward. We figured out what the case was worth and went after the insurance for that amount. The entire case took short of 3 years because of the opposing counsel refusing to settle and continually delaying the case. As time went on the settlement offers slowly increased, but they were still miles short of where we were. Max repeatedly told me that at any point I felt I needed to take the money and end the case he was 100% behind me on it. About a month before the trial the offers were coming in around 75-85% of what we were demanding. Now I will say at this point both sides would have been well off, but max again told me that he was willing to go as far as I wanted to and still had my back. It was a true testament to his character and how he really did want to do what I wanted and not what a typical lawyer would do to get a quick buck and run. A week before trial they settled for full ask and I couldn’t be happier. I feel like I’m the end I not only had an excellent attorney but that I gained a friend. Max will be my first call should I ever need those services in the future.

I was involved in an unfortunate car accident September of 2011, that left me unable to physically work for months and emotionally in shambles. I was having trouble being in any vehicle, sleeping at night was nearly impossible because of the pain and trauma. It wasn't until after getting a referral to speak with Mr Draitser, that I began to feel confident to get the treatment I needed but feared being able to afford. Having Max on my case gave me immediate emotional relief. From the minute we met, he helped me to see I deserved to feel 100% again, and that he could help to get me there. He was open and honest with me the whole way through, answering all of my calls, emails and worries with great swiftness. I am grateful that I haven't had to have a ton of legal assistance, however I know Max is a rarity among Lawyers. He really took great care and worked hard to help me succeed in winning my case and even more importantly to feel better! I hope that neither I nor any of my loved ones are in a situation such as this again- but I know I would hire Max in a heartbeat.

I was involved in a hit-and-run accident in March of 2012 while riding my bike. The car hit me while I was riding my bike across a crosswalk with a walk sign on. I went to the emergency room that day but it took me a few weeks to realize that my injuries were permanent. I was angry, depressed, and in great deal of pain. By the time I got a copy of the police report and realized that a witness had identified the driver, months had passed by. I kept expecting the other side (AKA the driver and his insurance carrier Wawanesa insurance) to "do the right thing" and I was disappointed by their actions over and over. I was disappointed that the driver hit me and drove off, I was disappointed that he lied about hitting me and I was most disappointed that Wawanesa Insurance would refuse to reimburse me for my medical expenses until they were legally forced to. After dealing with lawyers that represent Wawanesa insurance for years, one thing is clear: they will use every dirty trick in the book to make you give up the fight. I knew that was I was telling the truth but that doesn't matter unless you have a lawyer that is ready to step up and be a true advocate for you. I was very lucky to have Mr. Max Draitser on my side in the courtroom along with Mr. Brian Breiter. Last week my case went to trial at long last. This is first time that I have ever been in a courtroom, much less as the plaintiff. Walking into that courtroom, I felt like a stranger in a strange land. Max and Brian saw to it that I was well prepared for what was about to happen but I was still very nervous. Nerves aside, I knew that Max and Brian were excellent at what they do and they would do everything they could to help me win. Brian and Max's courtroom styles complement each other perfectly. Brian has the confidence and charisma that gives you feeling that everything will work out fine and Max has a calm and assured energy that lets you know that he is aware of everything that is happening has your back no matter what. My case was not an easy one but Max and Brian were well prepared and fought for me with every ounce of their being. I was continually amazed at how they anticipated what was needed at each critical moment. I am happy to say that we won and justice was finally served. I was able to get damages and I am grateful. I think equally important to me was the fact that a jury found the driver responsible for causing all this heartache and pain and I was so relieved when they did. I will never be able to Max, Brian, Mark and everyone else that helped bring this matter to a successful close. I hope I never need to a trial litigator again but if I do, I would want Mr. Max Draitser by my side.

Max really helped me with a car accident case. The guy turned left in front of me and remarkably his insurance company put me 50% at fault! On recommendation from a former client of Max's I met with him. He reassured me and at the end of the day, the insurance company folded. Highly recommend.

The driver fled on foot, leaving their vehicle behind. After 2 months we were able to track down a driver and insurance policy. The driver’s insurance company made me feel like I was making up injuries and downplaying the whole thing. They tried to dismiss everything for pennies as well. The damage was to the rear of my vehicle and from directly behind you could see it was hit, but not as much as if you looked from the side and saw the car was a foot shorter. Anyways, the driver’s insurance sent me a black and white lo-res photo from the back stating that the damage was minimal and that there’s no way I could have the injuries I was claiming. It was at this point I started researching how to find a lawyer as I knew there was going to be no other way. I spent the next 6-8 weeks researching and narrowed down to a few candidates. I chose Max because not only did he have great reviews but he was extremely attentive during our meeting and was extremely personable. He walked me through everything and made sure I was comfortable with everything and the possibility of a long timeline before moving forward. We figured out what the case was worth and went after the insurance for that amount. The entire case took short of 3 years because of the opposing counsel refusing to settle and continually delaying the case. As time went on the settlement offers slowly increased, but they were still miles short of where we were. Max repeatedly told me that at any point I felt I needed to take the money and end the case he was 100% behind me on it. About a month before the trial the offers were coming in around 75-85% of what we were demanding. Now I will say at this point both sides would have been well off, but max again told me that he was willing to go as far as I wanted to and still had my back. It was a true testament to his character and how he really did want to do what I wanted and not what a typical lawyer would do to get a quick buck and run. A week before trial they settled for full ask and I couldn’t be happier. I feel like I’m the end I not only had an excellent attorney but that I gained a friend. Max will be my first call should I ever need those services in the future.

I was hit by a guy who was speeding and the insurance company put me at fault! I hired Max and he did a great job for me; I couldn't be happier!

He is an expert, and he constantly kept me updated on my case. He worked hard to help me to get the most from my accident. Highly recommended!

I was involved in an unfortunate car accident September of 2011, that left me unable to physically work for months and emotionally in shambles. I was having trouble being in any vehicle, sleeping at night was nearly impossible because of the pain and trauma. It wasn't until after getting a referral to speak with Mr Draitser, that I began to feel confident to get the treatment I needed but feared being able to afford. Having Max on my case gave me immediate emotional relief. From the minute we met, he helped me to see I deserved to feel 100% again, and that he could help to get me there. He was open and honest with me the whole way through, answering all of my calls, emails and worries with great swiftness. I am grateful that I haven't had to have a ton of legal assistance, however I know Max is a rarity among Lawyers. He really took great care and worked hard to help me succeed in winning my case and even more importantly to feel better! I hope that neither I nor any of my loved ones are in a situation such as this again- but I know I would hire Max in a heartbeat.

I was involved in a hit-and-run accident in March of 2012 while riding my bike. The car hit me while I was riding my bike across a crosswalk with a walk sign on. I went to the emergency room that day but it took me a few weeks to realize that my injuries were permanent. I was angry, depressed, and in great deal of pain. By the time I got a copy of the police report and realized that a witness had identified the driver, months had passed by. I kept expecting the other side (AKA the driver and his insurance carrier Wawanesa insurance) to "do the right thing" and I was disappointed by their actions over and over. I was disappointed that the driver hit me and drove off, I was disappointed that he lied about hitting me and I was most disappointed that Wawanesa Insurance would refuse to reimburse me for my medical expenses until they were legally forced to. After dealing with lawyers that represent Wawanesa insurance for years, one thing is clear: they will use every dirty trick in the book to make you give up the fight. I knew that was I was telling the truth but that doesn't matter unless you have a lawyer that is ready to step up and be a true advocate for you. I was very lucky to have Mr. Max Draitser on my side in the courtroom along with Mr. Brian Breiter. Last week my case went to trial at long last. This is first time that I have ever been in a courtroom, much less as the plaintiff. Walking into that courtroom, I felt like a stranger in a strange land. Max and Brian saw to it that I was well prepared for what was about to happen but I was still very nervous. Nerves aside, I knew that Max and Brian were excellent at what they do and they would do everything they could to help me win. Brian and Max's courtroom styles complement each other perfectly. Brian has the confidence and charisma that gives you feeling that everything will work out fine and Max has a calm and assured energy that lets you know that he is aware of everything that is happening has your back no matter what. My case was not an easy one but Max and Brian were well prepared and fought for me with every ounce of their being. I was continually amazed at how they anticipated what was needed at each critical moment. I am happy to say that we won and justice was finally served. I was able to get damages and I am grateful. I think equally important to me was the fact that a jury found the driver responsible for causing all this heartache and pain and I was so relieved when they did. I will never be able to Max, Brian, Mark and everyone else that helped bring this matter to a successful close. I hope I never need to a trial litigator again but if I do, I would want Mr. Max Draitser by my side.

Max really helped me with a car accident case. The guy turned left in front of me and remarkably his insurance company put me 50% at fault! On recommendation from a former client of Max's I met with him. He reassured me and at the end of the day, the insurance company folded. Highly recommend.

I was referred to Max by another lawyer for his help with my motocycle accident and dealing with the other driver's insurance company. Max was very helpful with explaining the whole process, keeping me up to date and getting me to resolution without expense to me. I appreciated his use of technology - being a techno geek myself by trade. If you need the assistance of a personal injury attorney, I highly recommend Max Draitser be your representation.

Upon being injured in a motorcycle accident, a friend of mine referred me to Max Draitser. It was the first time I was involved in a traffic accident and taken to the Emergency Services. There, I was treated for several injuries. I left the hospital with crutches and a removable cast on my leg and a staggering medical bill. The last things I wanted to deal with after this accident were both the legal and the insurance aspects. I was emotionally distraught, in physical pain, and confused about what the next steps would be. Immobilized at home, Max kindly offered to come to my place and assist me in assessing the situation. From then on, Max handled my claim, referred me to a local chiropractor to help with my recovery and a MRI exam was done. Moreover, I did not have to pay for any of the medical expenses needed during my convalescence. Max was efficient, caring and always kept me posted on the pending details of my case. A discussion never ended without knowing what the next steps were and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Finally, I quickly received a substantial settlement check from the insurance covering not only all my medical expenses but also the cost of my (then wrecked and unusable) motorcycle, my clothes and moral compensation. If you have been in an accident and are in need of a dedicated, experienced and compassionate personal injury lawyer, I highly recommend you give Max Draitser a call.

Max is an extremely professional, diligent and thorough lawyer yet still sympathetic through the entire process. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and my experience working with Max. Max represented my infant son and I who were victims in a car accident with a city worker. We understood that due to the nature of the situation that we would have a bit of a fight on our hands going up against the city. Max handled it with much tenacity and guided me through the entire case. Thank you Max!

I was referred to Attorney Max Draitser by another firm and I am grateful that they introduced me to him. Max exemplified professionalism, care, and accessibility from day one. During our initial meeting, he made me feel comfortable and provided an optimistic plan with no promises on how he was going to handle my case. He remained genuine and truthful through out the process. I suffered a life altering injury and I needed an attorney who'd represent my best interest in dealing with this matter in hopes of preserving my quality of life once the dust settled. Max went the extra mile for me. He always returned phone calls when I had questions and he always provided solutions. Max was able to successfully attain a fair and equitable settlement for me while aligning me with medical pros who helped guide me through the physical treatment process. The interpersonal interaction that I had with Max Draitser softened the arduous task of physical recovery. He fought for me and I'd highly recommended him to fight for you should you have an unfortunate accident/injury experience that needs great legal representation.

He was open and honest with me the whole way through, answering all of my calls, emails and worries with great swiftness. I am grateful that I haven't had to have a ton of legal assistance, however I know Max is a rarity among Lawyers. He really took great care and worked hard to help me succeed in winning my case and even more importantly to feel better! I hope that neither I nor any of my loved ones are in a situation such as this again- but I know I would hire Max in a heartbeat.

I was involved in a hit-and-run accident in March of 2012 while riding my bike. The car hit me while I was riding my bike across a crosswalk with a walk sign on. I went to the emergency room that day but it took me a few weeks to realize that my injuries were permanent. I was angry, depressed, and in great deal of pain. By the time I got a copy of the police report and realized that a witness had identified the driver, months had passed by. I kept expecting the other side (AKA the driver and his insurance carrier Wawanesa insurance) to "do the right thing" and I was disappointed by their actions over and over. I was disappointed that the driver hit me and drove off, I was disappointed that he lied about hitting me and I was most disappointed that Wawanesa Insurance would refuse to reimburse me for my medical expenses until they were legally forced to. After dealing with lawyers that represent Wawanesa insurance for years, one thing is clear: they will use every dirty trick in the book to make you give up the fight. I knew that was I was telling the truth but that doesn't matter unless you have a lawyer that is ready to step up and be a true advocate for you. I was very lucky to have Mr. Max Draitser on my side in the courtroom along with Mr. Brian Breiter. Last week my case went to trial at long last. This is first time that I have ever been in a courtroom, much less as the plaintiff. Walking into that courtroom, I felt like a stranger in a strange land. Max and Brian saw to it that I was well prepared for what was about to happen but I was still very nervous. Nerves aside, I knew that Max and Brian were excellent at what they do and they would do everything they could to help me win. Brian and Max's courtroom styles complement each other perfectly. Brian has the confidence and charisma that gives you feeling that everything will work out fine and Max has a calm and assured energy that lets you know that he is aware of everything that is happening has your back no matter what. My case was not an easy one but Max and Brian were well prepared and fought for me with every ounce of their being. I was continually amazed at how they anticipated what was needed at each critical moment. I am happy to say that we won and justice was finally served. I was able to get damages and I am grateful. I think equally important to me was the fact that a jury found the driver responsible for causing all this heartache and pain and I was so relieved when they did. I will never be able to Max, Brian, Mark and everyone else that helped bring this matter to a successful close. I hope I never need to a trial litigator again but if I do, I would want Mr. Max Draitser by my side.

Max really helped me with a car accident case. The guy turned left in front of me and remarkably his insurance company put me 50% at fault! On recommendation from a former client of Max's I met with him. He reassured me and at the end of the day, the insurance company folded. Highly recommend.

I was referred to Max by another lawyer for his help with my motocycle accident and dealing with the other driver's insurance company. Max was very helpful with explaining the whole process, keeping me up to date and getting me to resolution without expense to me. I appreciated his use of technology - being a techno geek myself by trade. If you need the assistance of a personal injury attorney, I highly recommend Max Draitser be your representation.

Upon being injured in a motorcycle accident, a friend of mine referred me to Max Draitser. It was the first time I was involved in a traffic accident and taken to the Emergency Services. There, I was treated for several injuries. I left the hospital with crutches and a removable cast on my leg and a staggering medical bill. The last things I wanted to deal with after this accident were both the legal and the insurance aspects. I was emotionally distraught, in physical pain, and confused about what the next steps would be. Immobilized at home, Max kindly offered to come to my place and assist me in assessing the situation. From then on, Max handled my claim, referred me to a local chiropractor to help with my recovery and a MRI exam was done. Moreover, I did not have to pay for any of the medical expenses needed during my convalescence. Max was efficient, caring and always kept me posted on the pending details of my case. A discussion never ended without knowing what the next steps were and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Finally, I quickly received a substantial settlement check from the insurance covering not only all my medical expenses but also the cost of my (then wrecked and unusable) motorcycle, my clothes and moral compensation. If you have been in an accident and are in need of a dedicated, experienced and compassionate personal injury lawyer, I highly recommend you give Max Draitser a call.

Max is an extremely professional, diligent and thorough lawyer yet still sympathetic through the entire process. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and my experience working with Max. Max represented my infant son and I who were victims in a car accident with a city worker. We understood that due to the nature of the situation that we would have a bit of a fight on our hands going up against the city. Max handled it with much tenacity and guided me through the entire case. Thank you Max!

I was referred to Attorney Max Draitser by another firm and I am grateful that they introduced me to him. Max exemplified professionalism, care, and accessibility from day one. During our initial meeting, he made me feel comfortable and provided an optimistic plan with no promises on how he was going to handle my case. He remained genuine and truthful through out the process. I suffered a life altering injury and I needed an attorney who'd represent my best interest in dealing with this matter in hopes of preserving my quality of life once the dust settled. Max went the extra mile for me. He always returned phone calls when I had questions and he always provided solutions. Max was able to successfully attain a fair and equitable settlement for me while aligning me with medical pros who helped guide me through the physical treatment process. The interpersonal interaction that I had with Max Draitser softened the arduous task of physical recovery. He fought for me and I'd highly recommended him to fight for you should you have an unfortunate accident/injury experience that needs great legal representation.

I was involved in a hit and run in 2015. My car was left damaged and I suffered bodily injuries including a concussion and lasting spinal injuries. The driver fled on foot, leaving their vehicle behind. After 2 months we were able to track down a driver and insurance policy. The driver’s insurance company made me feel like I was making up injuries and downplaying the whole thing. They tried to dismiss everything for pennies as well. The damage was to the rear of my vehicle and from directly behind you could see it was hit, but not as much as if you looked from the side and saw the car was a foot shorter. Anyways, the driver’s insurance sent me a black and white lo-res photo from the back stating that the damage was minimal and that there’s no way I could have the injuries I was claiming. It was at this point I started researching how to find a lawyer as I knew there was going to be no other way. I spent the next 6-8 weeks researching and narrowed down to a few candidates. I chose Max because not only did he have great reviews but he was extremely attentive during our meeting and was extremely personable. He walked me through everything and made sure I was comfortable with everything and the possibility of a long timeline before moving forward. We figured out what the case was worth and went after the insurance for that amount. The entire case took short of 3 years because of the opposing counsel refusing to settle and continually delaying the case. As time went on the settlement offers slowly increased, but they were still miles short of where we were. Max repeatedly told me that at any point I felt I needed to take the money and end the case he was 100% behind me on it. About a month before the trial the offers were coming in around 75-85% of what we were demanding. Now I will say at this point both sides would have been well off, but max again told me that he was willing to go as far as I wanted to and still had my back. It was a true testament to his character and how he really did want to do what I wanted and not what a typical lawyer would do to get a quick buck and run. A week before trial they settled for full ask and I couldn’t be happier. I feel like I’m the end I not only had an excellent attorney but that I gained a friend. Max will be my first call should I ever need those services in the future.

I hope I never need to a trial litigator again but if I do, I would want Mr. Max Draitser by my side.

Max really helped me with a car accident case. The guy turned left in front of me and remarkably his insurance company put me 50% at fault! On recommendation from a former client of Max's I met with him. He reassured me and at the end of the day, the insurance company folded. Highly recommend.

I was referred to Max by another lawyer for his help with my motocycle accident and dealing with the other driver's insurance company. Max was very helpful with explaining the whole process, keeping me up to date and getting me to resolution without expense to me. I appreciated his use of technology - being a techno geek myself by trade. If you need the assistance of a personal injury attorney, I highly recommend Max Draitser be your representation.

Upon being injured in a motorcycle accident, a friend of mine referred me to Max Draitser. It was the first time I was involved in a traffic accident and taken to the Emergency Services. There, I was treated for several injuries. I left the hospital with crutches and a removable cast on my leg and a staggering medical bill. The last things I wanted to deal with after this accident were both the legal and the insurance aspects. I was emotionally distraught, in physical pain, and confused about what the next steps would be. Immobilized at home, Max kindly offered to come to my place and assist me in assessing the situation. From then on, Max handled my claim, referred me to a local chiropractor to help with my recovery and a MRI exam was done. Moreover, I did not have to pay for any of the medical expenses needed during my convalescence. Max was efficient, caring and always kept me posted on the pending details of my case. A discussion never ended without knowing what the next steps were and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Finally, I quickly received a substantial settlement check from the insurance covering not only all my medical expenses but also the cost of my (then wrecked and unusable) motorcycle, my clothes and moral compensation. If you have been in an accident and are in need of a dedicated, experienced and compassionate personal injury lawyer, I highly recommend you give Max Draitser a call.

Max is an extremely professional, diligent and thorough lawyer yet still sympathetic through the entire process. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and my experience working with Max. Max represented my infant son and I who were victims in a car accident with a city worker. We understood that due to the nature of the situation that we would have a bit of a fight on our hands going up against the city. Max handled it with much tenacity and guided me through the entire case. Thank you Max!
