Great firm. My lawsuit took place during covid, and the people i was suing made some lousy offers. My attorney advised me not to take their highest offer, and I’m glad i listened. When all was said and done he got me 8 times what they initially offered and we settled out of court. My attorney was fantastic, kept me updated throughout process.
