Lauren took an on extremely complicated case. She was super professional, knowledgeable, navigated all the crazy complexities of personal injury law, and was steadfast in the position on the case resulting in a better than expected outcome. All the while keeping me up to date with minimal interruptio n, letting me be as involved, or not involved, as I wanted to be, and giving me options throughout the whole process. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer experience to handle this case! Highly, HIGHLY recommend!!

If you’re searching for an accident and personal injury law firm, look no further. I’ve been working with Dayani Law Firm (specifically Lauren) since February 2022. This was for an uninsured motorist accident that occurred in October of 2021 that wasn’t my fault, and left me injured with ongoing chro nic pain. I should have contacted Lauren sooner, otherwise I would have saved myself a lot of stress and time navigating a very confusing and often frustrating insurance and claims system. Lauren has fought for me from day #1. She took the time to really familiarize herself with my case and has been persistent in investigating the best course of action — keeping me informed, involved (when I needed to be), and frankly at ease. She’s knowledgeable about treatment and top providers , which was helpful in terms of scheduling and trying new things. Lauren’s a busy lawyer (for a reason, because she rocks!) and she always had time to hear me out. Thanks Lauren for your kindness and help — and for leaving me with a positive outcome.

Lauren Dayani is an incredibly professional, caring and attentive attorney. Hiring Lauren was the best decision I could have made. She talked me through the process, explained my options, and made me feel comfortable through every step of my case. I felt expertly represented through a complicated and stressful case. She worked with insurance adjusters and attorneys on my behalf allowing me to fully focus on recovery. The providers she recommended to address my injuries were all phenomenal. Lauren always kept my well being and wishes at the center of every decision and worked tirelessly for me through multiple frustrations and set backs. I always felt like her top priority. After reaching a favorable settlement, she continued to work on my behalf to make sure all loose ends were taken care of and closed out. I very highly recommend Lauren Dayani.

Lauren Dayani is an excellent personal injury attorney. She took care of every detail big and small as they came up so that I could focus on healing from my injuries. She responded quickly to all my questions and kept me informed in a timely manner as the case progressed. She is efficient and profess ional and also a kind and compassionate person whom I felt very comfortable working with. She resolved the case quickly and I believe with the best possible outcome.
- ★★★★★The knight in shining armour
Mehdi · business law ·
Kyle Olive is the knight in shining armor. When we needed urgent help he extended a helping hand and guided us to stand up against big insurance company that instead of helping us had decided to deny our claim and pressure us to give up. After defending our rights and wining against insurance compa ny Kyle patiently and wisely navigated the difficult path in forcing another company in fault to take responsibility for the loss they had caused. We believe god helped us to find and to put our trust in Kyle. We were so fortunate he took our case and can't thank him enough. No matter how complicated your case may be, you will be fortunate to have Kyle representing you. Kyle Olive is the BEST.
- ★★★★★The Best

I hired Mr. Olive a couple years ago when I suffered an injury from a car accident. He handled my case in a very professional manner. He was never too busy to answer any questions or concerns that I may have had.
- ★★★★★Superb! Knowledgeable and caring lawyer.
Lisa ·
By far the most helpful consult I have received regarding my issue. Kyle’s kindness and calm manner put me at ease and allowed me to focus on the details and what is possible in my case. I no longer feel panicked and without help or guidance. Thank you, Kyle!
- ★★★★★Beyond Amazing
Heather · personal injury ·
I had the privilege of having Mr. Olive as counsel to assist in getting a settlement after a car accident. I honestly can not say enough about his professionalism, honesty, integrity, and wisdom. From beginning to end I was consistently impressed and awed by Mr. Olive. I HIGHLY recommend him for what ever situation brings you to search for representation.
- ★★★★★A Nice Guy
James · personal injury ·
Kyle represented my family after my wife and baby were rear ended in an auto accident and had to go to the hospital with injuries. Although there were many witnesses the drivers insurance, State Farm, denied liability anyway. This left us with thousands in medical bills that we could not pay for. Kyle took our case and 3 years later Kyle help us get reimbursed for our medical bills and also a very small sum for pain and suffering. Kyle was very kind through this process and I appreciate him for that.
- ★★★★★Exceptional Professionalism and Expertise from Start to Finish

It is with heartfelt gratitude that I recommend Adler & Giersch for their outstanding legal representation, integrity, and profound compassion. After interviewing three reputable firms, we selected the team led by Richard Adler, a brilliant legal authority around traumatic brain injury (TBI). From ou r first meeting, their exceptional knowledge and demeanor provided us with much-needed confidence and reassurance during a most challenging period of our lives. Our case involved injury to a minor child, complicated by denying all responsibility by the opposing party. The team’s professionalism and resourcefulness were unmatched; they were prompt to uncover critical evidence and locate witnesses with incredible precision. Armed with detailed analysis from experts in pediatric neurology and other areas, our case became unshakable. Throughout the process, the legal team—principal attorneys Richard Adler and Melissa Carter with excellent support from Mary Ellen and Sabrina—kept us informed, explained our options with clarity. What truly sets them apart is their humanity. They prepared diligently, all while reminding us of the greater importance of healing and recovery. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, we achieved a resolution that provided our family with closure and relief. I give Melissa Carter of Adler & Giersch my highest recommendation to anyone in need of skilled, ethical, and compassionate representation.

When my underage daughter was injured in a serious accident, we were referred to Adler Giersch. Melissa kindly met with us in the comfort of our home, immediately showing compassion and empathy for my daughter’s injuries. Over the next three years, Melissa’s confidence, legal knowledge, expertise in working with insurance companies, and professionalism stood out. She and her paralegal, Kody, kept us informed every step of the way with timely, friendly communication and genuine care. They made us feel like family. Melissa guided us through the settlement process, taking the time to clearly explain our options and working tirelessly to secure the maximum settlement possible. This was a life-changing event for my daughter, and while she will live with her injuries forever, I am deeply grateful for Melissa and Kody's support, kindness, and dedication. They are truly a top-notch team who combine warmth with exceptional legal skill. Melissa and Kody, my daughter thanks you, and I thank you.
- ★★★★★100% the one to consult
Siren · personal injury ·
I can’t say enough about attorney Melissa Carter, after I was in a very serious collision as a passenger on NYE 2025, where all parties had serious injuries. Melissa did not waiver, she held tough to get the $ maximum from insurance and more importantly brokered a deal so all parties agreed b4 the y ear anniversary so everyone could try to put this behind them. She is a compassionate person always available to speak or text, email directly with questions or concerns. I would highly recommend.
- ★★★★★Lifesaver!
Maria · personal injury ·
Melissa is literally a lifesaver. She effectively guided our family through an extended, traumatic, and, ultimately, successful restitution process following a violent crime. More significantly, she opened doors to health and behavioral healthcare systems that were critical for healing. Every pro vider we worked with, and there were many, shared their confidence in and willingness to work with Adler Giersch’s team, and with Melissa and Kody in particular. The firm cares about their clients and the people who care for their clients. I’m so grateful for their hard work and glad we trusted and followed the path Melissa recommended. It was not an easy road, but she was with us every step of the way.
- ★★★★★MOST AMAZING ATTORNEY EVER!!!!!!!!
Cindy · personal injury ·
I had a very difficult time getting through to the other party's insurance company after my accident and was feeling overwhelmed, so I decide to contact Melissa Carter at the Adler Giersch law firm in Kent. At first, on my own, I only planned to have Allstate pay for my totaled car but I quickly rea lized (Allstate not returning my calls) I needed help and left this headache in their hands. Melissa and Maria were absolutely wonderful-personal, caring, and highly professional. They took the time to explain everything, handled all communications, and truly advocated for me. In the end I received a settlement far beyond anything I ever imagined. I am incredibly grateful for Melissa and Maria and their excellent work. I highly recommend them and the Adler Giersch firm to anyone needing legal support after an accident.
