My automobile accident savior!

Posted by

My Auto Accident Savior! David represented me in my worker’s compensation case and did a fantastic job. I was so pleased, I asked him to represent me in a subsequent automobile accident. David was able to get me the policy limits from the driver that caused the accident and then the policy limits from my own insurance carrier. He then negotiated with Medicare and was able to save me thousands more. He really helped out when I needed him most. Thank you David!

The only guy I’d hire

Posted by

I’ve known Dave my whole life. When I got in a bad accident on my motorcycle, he was the only person I called. He was there from the hospital to helping me get social security disability. It’s been a long road but Dave’s been there the whole way. He gets my highest recommendation!
