Yan E. Shrayberman: Hi, I'm Yan Shrayberman, founder of Crown Law Firm here in Fresno, California. I want to take a few minutes to introduce myself and tell you a little bit about how I approach representing clients — because choosing the right attorney may be the most important decision you make.
I've been a criminal defense and family law attorney for over ten years. I'm licensed in California, Washington, and Florida, and I focus my practice here in Fresno and throughout the Central Valley. I was named a Super Lawyer every year from 2020 through 2026, which I'm proud of — but what matters most to me is what happens in the courtroom and at the negotiating table for my clients.
On the criminal defense side, I handle everything from DUI charges and drug crimes to violent felonies, federal cases, and white-collar matters. Every case is different. A first-time DUI for a college student carries different stakes than a federal firearm charge for someone with a prior record. I take the time to understand exactly where you are, what the government's case looks like, and where the weaknesses are — then I build a strategy around that.
On the family law side, I represent clients in divorce, child custody, child support, spousal support, and property division cases. Family law cases are emotionally difficult. I've seen what happens when attorneys fan the flames just to generate more billing hours. That's not how I operate. I fight hard for your interests, but I also give you honest advice about when it makes sense to reach an agreement and when it makes sense to go to court.
One thing I want to be clear about: I'm the attorney who will actually be working on your case. You won't be handed off to a paralegal or a junior associate. When you call our office, you talk to me. When we go to court, I'm there with you.
If you or someone you love has been arrested, charged, or is facing a difficult family law situation, I encourage you to call us right away. The earlier we get involved, the more options we have. Our first consultation is free. You can reach me directly at (559) 779-2315.
I look forward to meeting you and finding out how Crown Law Firm can help protect what matters most to you.
Why Choose Crown Law Firm for Car Accident Attorney in Clovis
Rear-end collisions on Clovis roads frequently result in whiplash, back injuries, and concussions. Insurance companies often try to minimize these injuries, but soft tissue damage can have lasting effects on your health. Our attorneys fight to ensure your injuries are taken seriously and fully compensated.
Understanding Car Accident Attorney in Fresno County
Uninsured and underinsured motorist accidents in Clovis are more common than many people realize. When the at-fault driver lacks adequate insurance, your own UM/UIM coverage becomes critical. We help Fresno County clients pursue every recoverable damage under their own policies.
Car Accident Attorney Representation for Clovis Residents
If you were injured as a passenger in a Clovis car accident, you may have claims against multiple parties — the driver of the car you were in, the other driver, or both. Passenger injury cases in Fresno County often involve navigating multiple insurance policies to pursue recoverable damages.
Local Claims Process for Clovis Cases
Clovis accident victims should be aware that California has a two-year statute of limitations for most personal injury claims. However, claims against government entities in Fresno County require filing an administrative claim within just six months. Acting promptly preserves your rights and ensures critical evidence is not lost.
After an accident in Clovis, the claims process typically begins with notifying the at-fault party's insurance company. The insurer assigns an adjuster who investigates the claim, reviews medical records, and attempts to negotiate a settlement. Having an experienced attorney managing this process from the start ensures your rights are protected throughout.

A seasoned personal injury attorney levels the playing field, handles negotiations, and can significantly increase the value of your claim.
What should I do immediately after an accident in Clovis?
After an accident in Clovis, seek medical attention right away even if you feel fine — some injuries do not present symptoms immediately. Document the scene with photos, collect contact information from witnesses, file a police report, and contact a personal injury attorney before speaking with the other party's insurance company.
What are the most common causes of personal injury in Clovis?
Common causes of personal injury in Clovis include car accidents on local highways and roads, slip and fall accidents at businesses and public properties, workplace injuries, medical errors at local healthcare facilities, dog attacks, and defective products. Each type of case requires specific legal strategies.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Clovis?
In California, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, claims against government entities in Fresno County have a much shorter deadline — typically six months. An attorney can help ensure your claim is filed within the applicable statute of limitations.
