My job is to gather all the information so the clients’ cases meet important insurance deadlines in order to file a claim, process the no-fault application, communicate daily with insurance adjustors for insurance policy information and liability decisions, get bodily injury policy limits from at fault parties, and submit property damage claims for our clients’ vehicles.

My name is Aly and I have over 15 years of experience working as a legal assistant and litigation paralegal. Here at Yakov Mushiyev & Associates, P.C., I am both the litigation and trial paralegal who puts our clients’ cases into suit, after negotiations to settle with the insurance adjustors have been exhausted and the amount that our client deserves has not been reached. I investigate which parties are involved in the action, draft and e-file the Summons and Complaint and I do follow-up to make sure all defendants are served. Once this is done, we are then in the litigation phase of the legal process and our office can begin the discovery exchange for our clients in the hopes of obtaining a more favorable settlement. If settlement offers are not satisfactory, I then work in tandem with the trial attorneys to fully prepare each case for trial, with the goal of being rewarded a favorable compensation by the judge and jury. Working diligently every day, with focus and care, we have a chance to make a positive difference to our clients’ lives during their time of injury and need.
