Our Successes

Motorcycle accident cases:

Allen, Flatt, Ballidis & Leslie has, throughout the firm's inception, successfully handled to conclusion numerous motorcycle cases. In 2006, the firm successfully concluded 2 significant injury cases in excess of $100,000, a broken collarbone and a client with a knee injury claim. As a specialist in motorcycle cases, we know where to look for additional coverage, places that less experienced attorneys miss. In recent years, other attorneys turned down cases that came to us for success. In one case, we found an overlooked coverage of $1,000,000 dollars and was successful in obtaining complete compensation for that client. We offer a free consultation about your case and goals.

In Other Cases

The Year 2007:

Jim Ballidis has successfully concluded a auto v. auto case for $1,250,000 arising from a driver that crossed over a center median causing a head on collision and will likely settle a claim in the near future for a similar amount for a client struck by a truck on a bycycle. In 2006, our office concluded and settled 6 clases that had a value in excess of $1,000,000 dollars each and in 2005 concluded a product liability trial resulting in a jury verdict in Orange County Superior Court exceeding $2,800,000. We obtained awards and settlements on four other cases totaling $2,400,750 in that same year. Additionally Suzanne Leslie successfully settled a premises liability case for $1,000,000 and the firm concluded over 170 cases with excellent results.

The Last Five Years:

Allen, Flatt, Ballidis & Leslie has obtained verdicts, awards, or settlements in 30 cases greater than $100,000, and for a total recovery of over $12,500,000 for injured victims. The average result was $300,000. For years prior to 2000 see the following link: Prior track record

Smaller Cases:

Our reputation of success in larger verdicts and settlements causes us to enjoy greater settlement or verdict potential in smaller cases as well. We strive to provide the same level of service to all clients whose cases we accept, large and small. Our goal is to see that all clients receive professional, courteous, and effective representation.

From California Super Lawyers:

California Super Lawyers Magazine (February 2005) featured an article on a "Super" insurance defense lawyer with more than 30 years of experience. He is revered by his peers and coveted by insurance carriers who want the very best legal representation possible. A noted Los Angeles trial attorney, ranked among California's 100 most influential lawyers, remarked that this lawyer is "smart, quick, and agile; I wouldn't want to go up against him in court." This "Super" lawyer is now the managing partner of an 80-lawyer insurance defense firm with offices throughout California.

Of the more than 150 jury trials in this Super Lawyer's career he has only had three losses. Jim Ballidis of Allen, Flatt, Ballidis & Leslie was successful in winning one of the three jury verdicts against this lawyer. Additionally, this lawyer noted that Mr. Ballidis' verdict against him was the largest verdict that had ever been rendered against him.

An excellent reputation with insurance companies, hard work, extensive case preparation and attention to detail enables our firm to reach settlement in most cases; however, our firm has the proven capability to beat the very best at trial if required.
