Tim Spangler helped me every step of the way fighting for the best possible settlement regarding my car accident. He answered every question, every call, and took over every responsibility battling my hospital and the other party’s insurance for the most compensation I could receive. Being able to rely on him and his team to take over with legalities while I recovered and got my life back together gave me peace of mind that was worth every penny. I would 100% choose Demas Law Group for any legal needs in the future.

I highly recommend the Demas Law Group. Even though they weren't able to take my specific case right now, the level of care, and professionalism I received from their team was unmatched. Their intake staff truly listened to my story, showed incredible empathy, and went above and beyond to make sure I didn't give up. Instead of just turning me away, they took the time to personally route me to a trusted specialist firm, Schultz Law Group, to ensure my case got the attention it deserves. It is rare to find a firm with this much integrity and genuine heart. If you want a legal team that actually cares about people. Then look no further than Demas!

In 2025, I was the victim of an unprovoked dog attack in a public park that left me with serious injuries. As medical bills began to pile up, I found myself overwhelmed. My insurance provided only limited post-operative rehabilitation and therapy, and I was deeply concerned about my recovery. I already had limited use of my left arm due to a military injury, and now my only fully functional arm was at risk of being permanently impaired. A co-worker, who is an attorney, strongly encouraged me to contact Demas Law Group. She described them as a firm with exceptional integrity, thoroughness, and a genuine commitment to their clients. From my very first meeting with the Demas team, I knew I was in good hands. They listened carefully to my situation, treated me with compassion and respect, explained every step of the legal process clearly, and made themselves easy to reach whenever I had questions. Most importantly, their first priority was ensuring I received the quality medical care and rehabilitation I desperately needed. Throughout my case, the team maintained outstanding communication. They kept me informed of every development, responded promptly to my calls and text messages, and were always available to address my concerns. Their professionalism and responsiveness gave me tremendous peace of mind during an incredibly difficult time. Their attention to detail was exceptional, and the outcome of my case exceeded my expectations. More than the result itself, I was impressed by the integrity, diligence, and respect they demonstrated from beginning to end. They genuinely cared about my recovery and fought tirelessly on my behalf. I cannot recommend Demas Law Group highly enough. I am incredibly grateful they were recommended to me, and I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone seeking knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated legal representation. In my experience, Demas Law Group is the very best in Northern California.

I am truly satisfied with the legal representation I received from Demas Law Group! My case just came to a close, so I am honored to leave this review with the hope it inspires others to also use their services. I was lucky enough to be represented by Tim, and he went above-and-beyond to ensure that I was heard, and was compensated for my injuries from an auto accident. Tim and his team worked tirelessly with the other insurance company to recover the maximum allowable for me for my medical costs, and pain and suffering. Because Demas Law Group has been in business for so long - and is so well-regarded - they have great knowledge and connections, and these go a long way with helping to move cases forward. A big thanks to Tim, Katelyn and the rest of the Demas Law Group Team!

I’ve had the opportunity to see how the team at Demas Law Group, P.C., Personal Injury Attorneys approaches their work, and there’s a level of professionalism and intentionality that stands out immediately. You can tell they take their responsibility to clients seriously and put real thought into how they handle cases and decisions. What impressed me most is how steady and disciplined the firm feels. There’s no sense of cutting corners or treating cases like numbers. The attorneys and staff come across as thoughtful, prepared, and genuinely invested in helping people navigate difficult situations the right way. If someone asked me who I’d feel comfortable pointing them toward in the Sacramento area for a serious car accident case, wrongful death matter, or other personal injury issue, Demas Law Group, P.C., Personal Injury Attorneys would absolutely be part of that conversation.

If you're debating between law firms, go with Demas! I did and I don't regret it for one second after being hit by an uninsured and unlicensed motorist. While I had uninsured coverage, from start to finish Demas Law Group helped me navigate the process and were professional and easy to work with. Most importantly I felt valued; before any business discussion they always inquired how I was doing. Veronica was amazing! She was punctual in correspondence with thorough explanations. While I hope I never need their services again, I have no doubt I will be a return client if needed. I would recommend Demas Law Group to my friends and family.
