- Vincent Yano I'm so glad I met Glenn. He's honest, smart, and approachable. Glenn gave great advice during the initial consultation (free of charge, by the way). Through his guidance, I negotiated a settlement with the insurance company. His staff is great, too — professional, respectful, skilled and kind. The location of his office is convenient.
- Rae K. I was Glenn Honda's client twice. Both times, he was my personal injury attorney. The first time, I was walking out the door of this building and the hydraulic malfunctioned, shoving me out. Well, as the door shoved me forward, it caught one of my fingers and partially amputated it. (It's fine now thank God). The insurance company wouldn't even pay my emergency bills. Glenn even hired an engineer to show that the hydraulic was defective. He made the insurance company pay! The second time I was walking and there was dirt and leaves covering a more than one-inch rise in the sidewalk. The City scoffed at me and my claim. But again, Glenn Honda to the rescue — He took the case all the way to arbitration. I recommend him. He fights hard for his clients.
- Lynne S. There are no words that can humbly express my sincerest core of gratitude to Mr. Honda & his staff! I honestly didn’t know what I was getting myself into so I kept my faith strong & put my trust in Mr. Honda & his staff. Quite frankly, I had moments of doubts but in prayer I sought my strength & just let it go. Now, I have closure and can move forward in my life journey with increased faith, patience, and hope. In closing, I hope if you ever need an attorney, I highly & truly recommend Mr. Glenn Honda & his staff...THEY ALL CARE AND ARE WITH YOU IN YOUR RECOVERY THANK YOU AGAIN MR. HONDA & STAFF ❣️RECOVERY LAW CENTER DESERVES THE MOON & STARS FOR THEIR SPLENDID SERVICE
- Janice Joshua Aloha, The team at Recovery Law Center was exceptional beyond expectations. Their professionalism, insight of my situation, and knowledge was on point from beginning to the end. They were on point and proactive on behalf of me and I felt very comfortable. I always felt assured that they were in control of my situation as if I was family. From fast replies to any questions I had to sending holiday cards in the mail. They encouraged and guided me in this first time ordeal on my path to recovery. I would recommend them to anyone. I have a great deal of gratitude and appreciation. I could go on for days with praise, but long story short they treated me like Ohana and I was beyond pleased with the settlement. Thank you guys! Aloha.
