Experienced and caring defective products/personal injury attorney
Altom has represented me in two different cases. He is a diligent, hard working attorney, and often worked long hours to get me the best possible outcome in both of my cases. I found him to be very caring, and extremely technically savvy in his research. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a competent defective products/personal injury or wrongful death attorney.
