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 Hanford

Understanding Car Accident Attorney in Kings County
Car accidents are one of the leading causes of injury in Hanford and across Kings County. The region's highways, including Highway 99 and Highway 41, see heavy traffic daily, increasing the risk of collisions caused by speeding, distracted driving, and impaired motorists. Crown Law Firm has extensive experience handling auto accident cases throughout the Central Valley.
Car Accident Attorney Representation for Hanford Residents
If you were injured as a passenger in a Hanford 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 Kings County often involve navigating multiple insurance policies to pursue recoverable damages.
Local Claims Process for Hanford Cases
Insurance companies handling Hanford claims often use delay tactics, hoping that injured victims will accept lowball offers out of financial desperation. Our firm counters these strategies by building strong cases, communicating deadlines clearly, and being fully prepared to file suit when necessary.
After an accident in Hanford, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions About Car Accident Attorney in Hanford
What is a lien in a personal injury case in Kings County?
A lien in a Kings County personal injury case is a legal claim by a healthcare provider, health insurer, or government agency against your settlement or judgment.

In California, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit.

An attorney can help ensure your claim is filed within the applicable statute of limitations.
How is the value of my personal injury case determined in Kings County?
The value of a personal injury case in Kings County depends on several factors, including the severity of your injuries, your total medical expenses, lost income, the impact on your daily life, and the degree of the other party's negligence. An experienced attorney will evaluate all of these factors to determine the full value of your claim.
What are the most common causes of personal injury in Hanford?
Common causes of personal injury in Hanford 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.
