Car Accident

On March 13, 2019, my family and I were in a car accident. Another vehicle ran a red light. I sustained a broken arm and ankle. We called Steve Segar's office a few days later. He came to my home and sat with my wife and I at our dinner table. He explained the entire process that we were going to go ...through medically and legally. From day one, we were very comfortable with his personal support and advice. He was very understanding of any concerns we had and eased them all. In the end, we received the settlement he expected. The important thing to note is how well he treated us, the care and concern he showed about our health and wellbeing throughout the entire process. He is an excellent lawyer because he is a caring and compassionate person.

Professional, Honest, Loyal and Dedicated

While working as a Police Officer in 2012 I was injured requiring several surgeries ending my career. Steve helped me every step of the way while fighting with insurance carriers to be treated and compensated fairly. During the course of 6 long yrs his commitment to prevail was second to none. His st...aff, specifically Virginia was incredibly helpful keeping me updated and returned all my calls promptly. Thank you Steve, Virginia and Mark for what you did for my family. I will and have highly recommended Team Segar.

Peace of mind!

I was injured while working by a motor vehicle. I was looking for a workman’s comp lawyer that also was a personal injury lawyer. I called and met with a few lawyers about my case before I hired Stephen Segar. What I liked about Segar was that he was not pushy like the others and took his time with m...e to find our more than just the case facts. Segar fully explained the process of both my cases to me and always was answering my questions which was nice since I had a ton of questions. This was my first experience in hiring a lawyer and I could not have made a better choice than with Stephen Segar. When you see his ad on tv, the thing that stands out and us so true...peace of mind! Segar took care of my legal issues with a personal lawsuit and a workman’s comp case. I made the right choice going with Stephen Segar and I am sure you will to. Segar is always there for me and that means more than anything else.

Amazing

I contacted the firm to see if I had a case. Stephen actually came out to my house; discussed my case; and accepted me as a client. He clearly explained the steps which would be taken moving forward with my accident case. He is thoughtful, honest, hard working, and a classy down-to-earth man. I ...was very pleased with his staff. All my questions were always answered in a timely manner. Stephen and his staff always kept me up-to-date on how my case was proceeding. You will not be disappointed using this man as your lawyer...I promise!
