Relentless Advocacy
For the Injured.
There are law firms that settle cases fast to move on. Then there are firms that fight, through negotiations, mediations, and all the way to trial. Bash & Polyachenko built Hollywood Injury Law Center to fight for you.
Words That Speak for Us
"Steve Bash is such a cool outgoing guy! He explains everything very well with a lot of details. He is honest & straightforward & I like that. He makes you feel very comfortable. He sat with my Boyfriend and I for idk maybe an hour? But I wouldn't have mind it be longer because he doesn't bore you at all!!! He even talked about his personal stuff with us & I'm sure not many other attorneys do that or are to comfortable to do so. He's not the type of attorney that just cares about the money like most do, he cares about making his clients happy & he sure made us happy! He has a great personality! Liana was the one who handled our case & she's great too!! She's very sweet & kind & very professional! I gotta say that if I do ever happen to get in another accident (and I hope it doesn't happen, because they're traumatizing) I am giving them a call & would love to have them as our attorneys again. I am DEFINITELY going to recommended them from now on if anyone I know is ever looking for a good attorney, no doubt!!! :)"

"I was recently involved in a car accident and was feeling pain so I needed advice since I didn't have health ins. so I had remembered I had heard of this attorneys office through a boxing event I had attended a year prior. So I looked them up and called them, so one of the attorneys came to my house and took all my information they needed to help me out. 2 weeks later I got my car fixed and about 7months later my case closed with all my medical bills taken care of and I got like 3k in my pocket for my pain and injuries. Definitely coming back to them if another accident happens and recommending them to my family and friends!"

"It's never a pleasant experience to be involved in a car accident. I was rear ended on my way to work and knew I was going to need legal representation. The guy that hit me insisted I was at fault and basically said "see you in court!" I was referred to Mr. Bash by a family friend and I must say that I was very happy with how my case was resolved. Mr. Bash explained my options and I agreed to go ahead and sign the retainer agreement without hesitation. My case was settled in a timely and professional manner. Their entire office staff was very supportive and understanding of my situation. From Liana who assisted in my initial paperwork to Tanya who always kept me updated, I felt that someone was always just a phone call or email away from answering any questions regarding the status of my case."

"Had the pleasure of being represented by Mr. Polyachenko after being hit in a car accident. Throughout my ordeal due to injury, Mr. Polyachenko has been more than a Lawyer to me, supporting me and letting me feel like there is someone on my side who cares about me. His guidance has helped me stay on track and focus on my recovery, while he took care of everything else. Mr. Polyachenko is a dedicated, honest and intelligent professional, who is full of confidence and knowledge, and more than anything else a real person who would talk to you on eye level and patiently explain legal issues so you would understand all of your options. I am extremely happy about the results of my case, and am full of gratitude as I feel like I got the best outcome I could have thanks to Mr. Polyachenko."
