Daisy, Alex & Jazmine were very attentive and made sure I was informed at all times during my case, I will definitely work with them again if I had to. They are a very professional establishment.
I had a wonderful experience at Eason & Tambornini's Law. Kyle Tambornini was my attorney. He was down to earth, friendly, and thorough. My case settled for much more than the original offer. This wouldn't have been possible without this office. If I ever need an attorney in the future, I'm calling him!
Thank you Seth and Francesca!
I can't say enough great things about this law firm. They were able to accomplish more for us than even the police could, and we are so grateful for their dedication. From the very beginning, they treated both me and my husband with respect and genuine care. They kept us informed every step of the way, always making sure we felt supported and understood. Their professionalism and compassion truly set them apart, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal help.
Eric, Shelley, and Francesca were so amazing with guiding me through my case. My case took a while but Shelley or Francesca were consistently prompt in responding to me and reassuring me that I was not forgotten. Eric always made sure that I understood the process and was very prepared. I would highly recommend Eason & Tamborini for anyone looking for legal help.
I had a great experience with them. The whole team was very helpful. Erin gave me really good advise and very knowledgeable. Thank you
After being rear-ended on the freeway, I initially began navigating medical care, assessments, and referrals through my health providers. As the process became more complex, I realized I needed an attorney who could advocate for the care, resources, and support I deserved.

I spoke with several other law offices before ultimately choosing Eason & Tambornini—and I am incredibly grateful that I did.

When I first called the office, attorney Kyle Tambornini personally answered the phone. What stood out immediately was that the conversation didn’t feel like a typical intake call. Kyle took the time to truly listen. He demonstrated genuine empathy, care, and concern for what I had experienced. It felt less like a business transaction and more like speaking with someone who sincerely wanted to help and advocate on my behalf.

From that moment forward, the entire team reflected the same level of professionalism, compassion, and expertise.

Kristen Vaught, my paralegal, was absolutely exceptional. She became a trusted guide and steady source of support throughout the entire process. Kristen was always accessible, whether it was answering questions, meeting impromptu when concerns arose, or simply providing reassurance during what can be a very stressful experience. Her responsiveness, kindness, and attention to detail made a tremendous difference.

I also had the privilege of working with attorney Kistofor Helm, who handled my case with remarkable skill and professionalism. He guided me through every stage, including preparing me for my deposition, with confidence and clarity. His strategic insight and astute counsel were invaluable. At one point, when I was ready to settle early, he took the time to explain the importance of patience and leverage in the process. Because I trusted his expertise and guidance, the case ultimately resulted in a far more favorable outcome than I initially expected.

The combination of legal expertise, strategic advocacy, and genuine human care is what truly sets Eason & Tambornini apart.

If you are looking for a law firm that is highly skilled, trustworthy, compassionate, and deeply committed to their clients, I wholeheartedly recommend Eason & Tambornini. Their team not only delivers exceptional legal representation—they walk alongside you with integrity and care every step of the way.
Daisy was very helpful and professional throughout my adventure. E&T. she is an asset to your firm. You are fortunate to have her!
Kyle and his team did a great job
This law firm advocates on behalf of their clients and community. After my consultation with Omar, I felt more confident moving forward with my worker's compensation case. I am grateful for the help that was provided.
I’m genuinely happy with the result and the way the process was handled.
A big shoutout to Attorney Eric Wills — your steady guidance, clear communication, and strong leadership made a huge difference. You kept things moving, explained every step, and made the whole experience feel manageable.
And an equally big thank you to Francesca Casique, whose patience, consistency, and dedication stood out every single day. Her communication, follow‑through, and support made a complicated process feel smooth and organized.
Thank you for being such a reliable, professional team. I’m grateful for the work you put in and the outcome we achieved together.

How do I know if my injury is severe enough for a personal injury claim?

Placerville Personal Injury AttorneysWhen you have a free consultation, our personal injury attorneys will listen carefully to understand how your injury has affected you, regardless of severity. It is important to remember that any injury that occurs when you least expect it and that it isn’t your fault can be highly disruptive to your personal life, job, and family. An experienced personal injury attorney in Placerville can determine this at your free consultation. You have nothing to lose by finding out.

In our decades of representing victims, our personal injury attorneys in Placerville have encountered countless injuries. Some have suffered short-term injuries following a slip and fall on icy stairs at one of the many Tahoe region ski resorts. In contrast, others have been victims of traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries due to multi-car collisions on Highway 50 and Highway 49, amputations following industrial accidents, and wrongful death.

How Our Placerville Personal Injury Attorneys Can Help

Attorneys do much more than file forms and deal with insurance companies. In reality, a personal injury attorney is like a comprehensive support system for people who deserve compensation for their injuries, pain, and suffering. Just some of the many services that we provide to our clients include:

  • Requesting police reports
  • Locating, retrieving, and evaluating surveillance footage
  • Seeking out expert testimony
  • Gathering medical evidence, such as test results, X-rays, etc.
  • Requesting and evaluating insurance policies
  • Negotiating on your behalf with insurance companies
  • Representing you in court if the claim goes to trial

Contingency Fee Structure Means You Pay Nothing Unless You Win

It is not uncommon for people to hesitate to call a personal injury lawyer because they think they cannot afford one. Our Placerville personal injury attorneys have a solution: a contingency fee structure. A contingency fee agreement means that a client pays only if a settlement is secured for them.

If a client does not win a settlement, they pay nothing. This model is prevalent in personal injury claims and ensures that people who cannot afford upfront legal fees can access legal representation when needed.

How is liability determined in a personal injury case?

An experienced attorney understands the many nuances of determining liability. Our Placerville personal injury attorneys play a crucial role in determining liability using multiple methods, including:

  • Eyewitness Testimonies: Securing statements of witnesses to the incident can provide crucial details about who was at fault.
  • Expert Opinions: Experts at reconstructing accidents, doctors, engineers, and others can offer professional analyses and opinions that support the claim.
  • Photographs and Videos: As your personal injury attorney in Placerville will explain at your free consultation, preserving visual evidence from the accident scene is vital. This may include images or video of the damaged property and weather conditions.
  • Police Reports: Official police reports can provide valuable information links for proving liability and are critical to personal injury claims.
  • Medical Records: Medical documentation linking injuries or conditions directly to the accident is essential to proving the severity of an injury and establishing a timeline.

Types of Compensation and Damages in Personal Injury Claims

A wide range of compensation and damages may be included in a personal injury claim. Some of the most common reasons for compensation include:

  • Medical care, including short and long-term therapy or rehabilitation
  • Cosmetic surgery
  • Unable to work the same job or work at all
  • Loss of future income
  • Emotional and physical pain and suffering

Our Placerville personal injury attorneys understand that making that first call to a personal injury lawyer is the hardest step. But if you have been hurt and it’s not your fault, calling an attorney is suitable for yourself and your family. We have learned that the clients who hesitated to call often end up being the ones most relieved they did when the case was settled.

Our Placerville personal injury attorneys are committed to consistent communication with our clients. We believe in returning calls quickly and thoroughly answering questions. Our communication style will be evident from our first meeting whenever you have a free moment. We will ensure you leave the consultation with a better understanding of your situation and idea of whether to hire us or not, whether you decide.
