What Our Clients Say

“Terry Friedman and Julie Throop saved me! I suffered a catastrophic injury that changed all aspects of my life and went from being completely independent to needing someone 24/7 just to live. I met with other attorneys before meeting with Julie. However, less than 30 seconds into the conversation, I realized the difference with Julie is that you don’t become her client, you become her family. She spent so many days and hours fighting for me–I will never be able to thank her enough. Terry and Julie worked miracles for my case and beat obstacles in litigation I never thought would be possible.”
— Cortney B.
“I highly recommend this law firm. The entire staff was very friendly, and I feel like they truly cared about my well being. They even called to check on how my rehabilitation process was going. They gave me great advice and recommendations throughout the entire process. The settlement I received far exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to hire them again if I ever need legal help in the future.”
— Steven M.
“Great lawyers, great environment. They treat you like family, explain everything to you, and always keep you updated. I would highly recommend them as the best law firm in town.”
 — Cordell E.

I am pleased to state that my experience with Julie McGrath Throop and her support staff was nothing short of exemplary. Julie was always prompt in returning my telephone calls, demonstrated a very high degree of concern for me as a client and a person, promptly answered each and every procedural question and was always available to meet and confer. Moreover, Julie had attended to timely filing all requisite documents with the court and was remarkably effective, efficient and talented regarding each task associated with the prosecution of my legal matter, not excluding dealing with adverse counsel. Her legal talents, knowledge of the law and professional concern resulted in the favorable resolution of my case. Should I require the assistance of counsel in the future, I will not hesitate to retain Julie to represent me. She is clearly an asset to the legal profession and truly a quality person.
Myles
Ms. Throop, her paralegal – Ms. Santa Cruz, and everyone on staff at the law offices of Friedman and Throop CHANGED MY LIFE. I was hit while riding my motorcycle, and navigating the medical bills while concentrating on my recovery became too much for me to handle. I met with Ms. Throop, and she assured me that she and her team could help. I was just hoping that they could make sure all my bills were paid, BUT by the time they had finished, I walked away with a settlement that FAR EXCEEDED my wildest expectations. I always felt so taken care of when I visited the office. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! 10/10 recommend.
Timothy Wood

Julie Throop and her Team are the most caring, compassionate, and wise law firm I have ever worked with. Julie’s confidence skills show. She has a game plan from start to end. She thinks on her feet and knows how to take and give the punches. I put my full faith and trust in Julie Throop and the Team, and I’m happy I did.
Kevin Broward

An outstanding word of recognition and gratitude goes to the folks here at Friedman and Throop who are everything a person could ever hope for in the time of need, and representation. They also have a truly compassionate bedside manor that goes above and beyond the call of duty. Myself, going through a traumatic life as a result of being hit by a drunk driver while on foot that left me paralyzed while on vacation here in Reno, left me alone in the hospital for 2 years on life support. They would even come in and visit me, or a phone call here and there just to see how I was doing when I could speak again through my long recovery time. They were as professional and thorough in the case itself as they are caring. I give the highest 5 ? plus recommendation to this team. Thank you again.

Matthew Brown

I was in an accident that totaled my son’s car and hurt me pretty bad. I still have problems but I love the way the whole staff and Julie Throop treated me with dignity and respect and for that if I ever need an attorney again, I will chose Friedman and Throop.

Personal Injury FAQs

A personal injury attorney specializes in representing individuals who have been injured due to the negligence or wrongdoing of others. They handle a wide range of cases, including car accidents, truck accidents, premises liability, medical malpractice, and more. Personal injury attorneys guide clients through the complex legal process, advocating for fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. They also provide a strategic approach tailored to each unique case, which includes an initial consultation, thorough investigation, evidence gathering, legal strategy development, negotiation with insurance companies, and, if necessary, representation in court.From the moment you engage their services, personal injury attorneys work diligently to protect your rights and interests. They operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you only pay if they successfully recover compensation for you. This structure ensures that they are committed to achieving the best possible outcome for your case. To learn more about the essential functions of a personal injury attorney and how they can help you navigate the aftermath of an injury, check out our detailed blog article“What Does a Personal Injury Attorney Do?”.

If you’re injured in an accident, handling your interactions with insurance companies carefully is crucial. Your health insurance company may have a lien on your personal injury settlement, meaning they have the right to be reimbursed for any medical expenses they covered related to your injury. Failing to repay your health insurance company can have legal consequences. It’s essential to seek proper legal advice before proceeding with your injury claim to ensure you understand your obligations and rights.

Additionally, if an insurance company asks you to provide a recorded statement after an accident, such as a car accident or slip and fall, it’s best to have a personal injury attorney present. An attorney can guide you on how to respond to questions and protect your interests. They can help ensure you don’t unintentionally say something that might harm your case. Getting legal advice early on can make a significant difference in the outcome of your claim. We offer free legal consultations to help you understand your rights and navigate the complexities of dealing with insurance companies.

Nevada’s high number of personal injury lawyers can be attributed to the state’s dynamic and growing population, combined with its bustling tourism and entertainment industries. In cities like Las Vegas and Reno, where accidents are more common due to heavy traffic and high visitor numbers, there is a continual need for legal representation in personal injury cases. This demand naturally leads to a larger number of attorneys specializing in this field.

At Friedman & Throop, we distinguish ourselves in this competitive environment by offering over 60 years of combined legal experience and a deep commitment to our clients. While many firms compete for attention, our focus remains on providing personalized, effective legal support tailored to your specific needs.
