Client ReviewsGreat helpPosted by: Steve, a Personal Injury client, 2012-01-24 19 days ago. Flag
Client Review:
Paul, Eva and Julia have been a great help since an 89yo great-grandmother turned left in front of my motorcycle keeping me out of work since 2008. They have gone way above and beyond what I expected, taking a personal interest in my well being during the 3+ years of my recovery and lawsuit. When the other party's insurance started playing games, trying to low ball me, their expertise, advise and support in everything concerning me seemed personal and almost familial. The fee they received will never cover all I owe to them. Although they are not aware of it, a good friend of mine called Paul about a year and 1/2 ago when he rear-end someone on the freeway. Seems his insurance was playing games and the woman brought suit against him. Although they would normally be on the other side Paul and Eva did take the time to speak with him on at least two occasions and explain how things worked and what his options were. This is an office that really does care about people and not just the fee

Client Review:
My case didn't had any great financial prospect., but I wanted someone to take up my case so that I get adequately compensated for whatever losses I made during the auto accident. Paul took my auto accident case and in no time the case was settled as per my wish. I would highly recommend Paul and Eva.

Client Review:
Paul, Julia and Eva are simply AMAZING. I was so scared about my future, loosing EVERYTHING normal in my life due to my injury. I prayed that I would find a lawyer that one, believed in me and two would be tough enough to fight for me! And GOD blessed me with Paul and the gang! They were there for me through my emotional and physical meltdowns but also genuinely reassured me that all was not lost! That my continued strength along with there dedication and knowledge we would make it through! THANKS GUYS FOR GIVING ME MY LIFE BACK!

Client Review:
I would never hire this lawyer ever again. He and his staff were rude and did not inform me properly. I also feel that I was way over charged. He was cold and extremely uncaring - cold as ice on the phone. I had to wait a year and a half just to get one of my payments of a very small amount of money. It was just AWFULL!!

Lawyer's Comment: At Van Der Walde & Associates we strive to obtain the best possible result for our clients while maintaining the personal touch that distinguishes us from other firms. I wish this client had listed his or her name so we could have addressed any concerns and not have a similar dissatisfied person in the future!
Unfortunately, due to new Medicare laws, it can take a year or more to get a final reimbursement amount due to Medicare. As attorney's, we are put into a bind - on the one hand we must release enough money to the client, all the while holding back enough to satisfy Medicare's claims. I invite you to meet me and my staff and judge for yourself if we can help you get the just compensation you deserve! Highly recommend!Posted by: cheri, a Personal Injury client, 2011-08-16 6 months ago. Flag

Client Review:
Paul was very easy to work with. He was very knowledgeable about similar cases which allowed him to give me all the scenarios and provide honest opinions on what would be best for me and my case. He provided all the information and facts in a way that I could easily understand them and he was very personable and easy to talk to. He contacted me often to discuss the case and provided me with the information I needed to make informed decisions. His assistants were also very responsive to my emails and were helpful with questions when Paul was not available. Overall I was very pleased with how Paul handled my case and would recommend him to my friends and family in the future.

Client Review:
Paul and his staff represented me in a personal injury case. The entire staff made themselves available to answer all my questions, and helped to ensure that I received the best possible medical care. Paul successfully mediated my case/settlement and avoided a jury trial. I would recommend him, and would seek his services again should the need arise.

Client Review:
I hired Paul and his staff to represent me when I had my leg crushed in a very serious accident. They always kept me informed, stayed on top of my case and ultimately got a result that exceeded my expectations. Without reservation I would recommend them to anyone in need of legal services for their serious personal injury case
An "excellent" rating for this Paul D. Van Der WaldePosted by: Patricia, a Personal Injury client, 2010-10-08 over 1 year ago. Flag
Client Review:
Mr. Van der Walde represented me in a slip and fall injury suit. He put a great deal of effort into my case, gathering evidence, taking depositions and generally doing everything that needed to be done to prepare the background. All of this finally resulted in a mediation which took place last week. Throughout the day Mr. Van der Walde worked with the mediator to bring us to the point of a satisfactory settlement. I was very pleased with the outcome and felt that Mr. Van Der Walde did everything in a most excellent manner and well represented the profession of an Attorney at Law.

Client Review:
Paul Van Der Walde jumped right in and took my case after I was abandoned by another attorney. He and his associates did a great job building my case and involving me in the process. I was kept informed about all details and always knew what was going on. Paul gave me good advice and supported my decisions. He helped me out in so many ways. I was very happy with the settlement that he negotiated and will hire him again, if the need should ever arise.
