Silva Injury Law

What Silva Injury Law does

Silva Injury Law, Inc. is a plaintiff-side personal injury law firm founded in 2017 by former prosecutor Michael Joe Silva and headquartered in Turlock, California. The firm represents individuals who have been injured due to the negligence of others, with primary practice areas spanning motor vehicle accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle and bicycle accidents, premises liability, slip and fall, wrongful death, work injuries, dog bites, livestock accidents, product liability, sexual assault civil claims, and select medical malpractice and employment matters. As of 2026 the firm operates 19 office locations across California and Utah, employs 40-45 staff including 13 attorneys, and has handled 3,000+ cases with cumulative client recoveries exceeding $120M, including a $5M+ largest verdict and multiple seven-figure settlements.

The firm's product surface combines legal representation with a content-led brand platform. Core legal work is delivered through a pod-based service model pairing attorneys with client advocates, case administrators, and paralegals, supported by a technology stack that includes Filevine (transitioning to EvenUp in 2026) for case management, RingCentral for communications, Foundation AI and EsquireTek for AI-assisted document workflows, and a LawBrokr-powered online intake portal. A customer-facing AI Assistant on the firm's website handles initial inquiries 24/7. Alongside legal services, the firm operates Silva Studios, a YouTube content brand with over 300,000 subscribers and tens of millions of views, including original series (Thunderclap, The Silva Injury Law Show) that earned a 2026 Webby Award nomination in the Branded Scripted category.

Revenue is generated entirely through contingency fees on settled or litigated cases, with fee tiers of 33.3% pre-litigation, 40% litigation, and 25% for cases involving minors, and no fees charged unless the firm wins. The firm does not disclose external funding; ownership and control remain concentrated with founder-CEO Michael Joe Silva, Chief Legal Officer Tanner Combs, and Chief Operating Officer Brian Gomes. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via a 24/7 free consultation hotline, website intake, and physical offices, supplemented by educational blog content and Silva Studios video as a top-of-funnel brand channel. Disclosed revenue was $13M+ in 2025 with a projected $25M in 2026, against monthly new case intake of 100-110 and a 2026 intake target of 1,300 cases.

Others

• EvenUp: AI-driven personal injury case management and demand-letter platform that Silva is migrating to in 2026; adjacent enabling tech in the PI workflow space rather than a direct law firm competitor.
• LawBrokr: Digital intake and client-matching platform for plaintiff law firms; Silva uses LawBrokr for online case consultations, making it an enabling/distribution partner rather than a competitor.
