Lawyer or friend?

Doug is a fantastic lawyer and as a matter of fact a very aggressive and knowledgeable representative for any case he takes on. His refreshing and reassuring confidence is rival only to the results he attained. After my accident he returned my call immediately, and carefully laid out how we would pro...ceed with our case, only after being genuinely concerned about my well being. Any question I had was met by an immediate call or text, and it was always an in depth explaination and instructions on what I needed to do at the very first sign of it. When I attended my insurance ordered IME to determine if/what treatment I was eligible for, Doug drove 45 minutes to meet me, each time and helped me figure out the chaotic office, making an gruelling process very bearable. Doug was extremely efficient and got my case resolved in a VERY timely manner, yet despite us reaching a judgement and him being paid Doug has remained on my case. It has been over a year and a half that I have experienced pain since my accident, which resulted in reconstructive surgery, but his determination still has me being treated. Doug was incredible because I was in so much pain at times I couldnt talk, and he did more than talk. He reminded me at every appointment, spoke to every representative from insurance, called the office of the doctors multiple times when they treated me, "as a number" I will tell you, he will have none of that for his clients, as I was always on the line for these calls. The entire terrible experience of a car accident, being out of work and even just feeling down from my injury and being stuck home was made into the best case scenario because not only was my case handled fast, efficiently and to maximum compensation, but I had a Lawyer who legitimately cared, making jokes and great conversation, sending me get well soon cards, regular text messages even to this day. Over a year an a half after my accident, and eight months after the conclusion of the case and payment recieved and I can call him at this moment and have the best guy in my corner! Thank you so much Doug!

Amazing

I was in a car accident back in 2018 and was in need of a good lawyer. Through an acquaintance I was referred to Doug. From the very beginning Doug was amazing. He was tentative, patient and answered all of my questions. From then on, Doug was in constant contact with me and was available at all time...s to answer any questions. He referred me to amazing doctors and constantly checked in. Doug by far surpassed all my expectations and took a genuine interest in his clients. I would recommend Doug 100 times over.

Excellent attorney

Doug has helped my family and I three times, and has proven to be a tenacious advocate. I was always informed at every step and he prepared for every possible effort to fight for my awesome recovery. Doug came with me to my medical exams to make sure doctors could not mess around with me. He pre...pared me for the worst, but delivered the best possible financial outcome. He even fought the local criminal court so the defendants ticket wasn’t reduced, and they were held fully responsible for my injury. The end result speaks for itself - I give Doug Borroughs my highest recommendation.

Personable, Kind, Patient, and Knowledgeable and most importantly he is about his business and gets the job done.

I am happy to say that Douglas Borroughs has always come through for me. From the moment of the accident, through surgery and physical therapy he was there the whole step of the way. He has collected 140,000 over the two times I retained him. The guidance and help that I received was phenomenal. ...I will recommend him to all my friends and family. No doubt about it. Thank you Doug you are the best “You Rock”.

Excellent attorney

Douglas was very helpful, knowledgable and sincere. He made a terrible experience, like an auto accident, a less stressful occurrence. I would highly recommend him as a personal injury attorney.
