Here is how we perform when the stakes are highest.

The Attorney Who Signs Your Case Tries Your Case

In the legal industry, the bait-and-switch is common. You refer a complex case to a named partner based on their reputation, only to have it handed off to a junior associate to learn on your client’s dime. Not here. When you partner with Faraj Law, your client gets Haytham Faraj. He prepares the strategy. He takes the depositions. He tries the case.

THE DETAILS

Straight Answers on Referrals, Fees, and Timelines

How do referral fees work?

We honor all referral fee agreements in strict compliance with state bar rules in both California and Illinois. Referral fees are paid promptly upon case resolution and funding. We provide full transparency on the accounting—you will never have to chase us down for your check.

Will I be kept in the loop on case progress?

Yes. You are a partner in the case, not a forgotten hand-off. We provide proactive status updates and respect your boundaries. Whether you want to remain actively involved in strategy or just want quarterly updates, we adapt to your preference while ensuring the client knows you are still in their corner.

What types of cases do you accept as co-counsel?

We step in for high-stakes, trial-bound litigation. Our primary focus is catastrophic personal injury, wrongful death, civil rights violations (police misconduct/government liability), and complex commercial disputes. If the defense refuses to offer fair value and the case needs to go to a jury, we want to review it.

Do you only try cases in Los Angeles and Chicago?

Our primary physical offices are in Los Angeles (Woodland Hills) and Chicago, and we aggressively litigate throughout both states. However, for federal civil rights cases, complex commercial litigation, and military/JAG matters, we frequently partner with local counsel to handle cases nationwide.

How long do I have to file a personal injury case?

It depends on jurisdiction and who you are suing. For standard personal injury claims, both California and Illinois generally have a two-year statute of limitations. However, if your claim involves a city, county, or government entity—such as a city bus or police department—strict deadlines require you to file initial claims within a matter of months.

Who advances the case costs once a referral is accepted?

We do. Taking a catastrophic injury, civil rights, or commercial case to trial requires significant capital for top-tier experts, accident reconstruction, and intensive discovery. Once we partner on a case, we fully fund the litigation so you don't have to carry the financial risk while we push for the verdict.
