Testimonials

Dominick’s intelligence is closely matched to his honesty, and moral stature.

Robert and Karen B.

After experiencing a flood in our home, we hired a contractor to do the repairs. We soon found ourselves being sued and a Mechanics Lien being foreclosed on our home. We were stunned, and scared.

We were recommended by a friend’s attorney to Dominick Severance. Dom helped guide us out of an extremely stressful and scary situation. He also saved our home from a fraudulent mechanics lien and enabled us to settle the lawsuit with a less than reputable contractor.

Dominick’s intelligence is closely matched to his honesty, and moral stature. We were taught, “You cannot argue with honesty”. This is a belief and a way of life for Dom. His approach to what he does is proof that there are still people who live their lives with a high level of morality and compassion for others. A totally unique attorney and human being and an honor to know.

We can only hope that we will never need legal services again, but if we do it will be without hesitation that we call on Dominick for help. We highly recommend Severance Law.

To Dominick,

Thank you for all that you do, and the method in which you do it.

Yours truly,

Robert and Karen B.

I am certain I will work with him for a lifetime and can not recommend him highly enough

Dr. Bradley – CEO @ California LASIK & Eye | MD PhD – Refractive Surgeon

“When I first met Dominick Severance he told me “your job as a doctor is to do no harm and my job as a lawyer is to never lie.” I chuckled to myself as this was so different than what I have come to expect from lawyers. I had found most lawyers felt their job was to constructively bend the truth in the clients favor. This is not Dom. His ethics and his compassion run deep. He is also one of the smartest people I have met. This combination of compassion, honesty and intelligence (read photographic memory) makes him a fundamentally different lawyer than any I have ever met. I consider myself lucky to have met Dom and honored to have him representing me and my company. I am certain I will work with him for a lifetime and can not recommend him highly enough if you are looking for someone to fight on the side of good.”

Insurance Denied My Claims Until I Met Dominick Severance

Michael, Client of Severance Law

Without Severance Law, I don’t know what I’d do. In January 2023 I contracted sepsis through a burn on the tip of my left thumb. After 4 days my hand blew up and I passed out having to be rushed to urgent care and then the emergency room by a friend. After 15 days in the hospital, 2 surgeries and $280,000 in medical bills, I found myself without work (can you imagine the bank I worked for actually expected me to produce loans), and bed-ridden with mounting bills and no income.

I had been paying for an accidental health insurance policy which would assist with medical bills in the event of an accident, and when I went to file the claim, it got denied because it didn’t meet the definition of “an accident”.

A friend from church recommended I call Dominick Severance, who promptly got back to me and we had a brief call. Within an hour of giving him the details, he gave the exact wording I should use in my reply to my insurance company, and BOOM, within 3 days they replied saying they would pay my claim, and within a week, the check was in my hands, allowing me to catch up my bills, and have a little breathing room.

Without Dominick’s experience, guideance and actions, I might still not have that money. I couldn’t more highly recommend a person, both personally and professionally than Dominick and Severance Law. If you need a savvy, customer oriented law advocate and professional, don’t wait – call Severance Law!

"Severance Law saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars"

Tai – Owner/CEO L.A. Productions

Dominick Severance and Severance Law saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars in litigation expenses and claims. We were being backed into a corner from a former client who filed a lawsuit against our business; the complaint was filled with false and misleading claims and accusations. Within the the first 30 minutes of our initial consultation, Dominick understood exactly what was going on and had a very peaceful and soothing way of putting our minds at ease; we had been stressed out about the situation for months! We really did find peace in the process even against all odds. Dominick then looked at all the evidence, did what great attorneys do, and had our case dismissed within weeks. We highly recommend Severance Law to all our friends and family and we will forever be grateful for Dominick Severance!

State compliance is not something to take lightly and Dom was a breath of fresh air

Aaron – Collins Pacific Plumbing, Inc.

We hired Dominick at Severance Law to help with some very pressing issues in regard to state compliances for our company. The issues that arose were beginning to seem unsurmountable but as soon as Dom came on, he provided peace of mind with clear and concise information and direction through resolution. Every step of the way Dom was on top of the next required action item with even more in depth explanations for proceeding. State compliance is not something to take lightly and Dom was a breath of fresh air in a situation that seemed very daunting. We will always call Dom and trust him entirely to provide honest help with any legal issues that arise.

No one ever wants to find themselves in a predicament where they suddenly need law advice.

Leann P.

No one ever wants to find themselves in a predicament where they suddenly need law advice. At least, that’s how I felt. But people will be people, and life will be life. Enter Severance Law. Dominick was highly recommended by a friend of mine and goodness, does he know his stuff. Amidst his busy schedule he was able to fit me in, reviewed local laws, reviewed relevant policies, and assisted me in delivering an effective response within days. One thing that stood out to me was his catch phrase, “Race to Resolution”, which I’d say describes his approach in a nutshell. Dominick got me through my situation in the quickest, most pain-free way possible. And I could tell he really cares as a human being. I truly appreciated his knowledge, kindness and efficiency and would highly recommend his services.
