I'm incredibly grateful for having found the most sincere & compassionate attorney for my complex personal injury experience.

Right from the start, Paul was there for me. I will never forget calling him from the subacute care facility, crying on the phone in pain. Over a long 3 year journey, Paul assured me every step of the way, how the case would proceed. He calmed my nerves before every "appearance" and made me feel s...upported by way of his compassion, sincerity, and general warmth. First, there's "just something about Paul". Second, he is experienced / seasoned. Third, he set his intention on settling out of court, and made it happen. Last but not least, he shared an experience close to his heart, to inspire me to have hope to discover once again, a pain free life. I've not reached "pain free" yet, but I do have hope and faith that I, like many others, I too can conquer and overcome. For me, the positive experience & memories that I will always have of working with Paul, is not centered on financial outcome. It is centered on gratitude that I feel for working with a kind hearted man who genuinely cares about his clients and wants a fair outcome for them, due to his concerns about their futures, living with injuries, post-trauma. My once negative opinion about attorneys in general, has been transformed. Thank you Paul. I'll be sending gratitude for a lifetime. :)

outstanding lawyer

I first heard about Paul via a family memeber who had a personal injury case. Paul was highly recommended after I was in a automotive accident and sustained back and neck injuries.  When I had meet Paul for the first time, he had a strong humbling presence which made it natural to communicate.  Paul ...is very understanding and knowledge concerning the extent that the injuries effect ones physical and emotional character. Paul and Sandra always presented themselves in a professional manner that would make thier firm proud. I am glad to have worked together with Paul and Sandra from the beginning to the settlement of my case. I highly recommend Paul Garfield to those that have a personal injury case. Thank you Paul and Sandra.
