Hit by drunk driver

Got hit by a drunk driver. I think God kept me from dying. While in the emergency room I instinctively asked my wife to call a lawyer. She contacted Andrew the next day. I was in the hospital about two weeks and after that out of work a good bit. My health insurance paid the bills, but they kindly... told me that they expected to be paid back by the auto insurance and I was glad that Andrew was able to take care of that for me. About a year after the accident Andrew presented me with a rather large check, which made me quite happy. If this kind of thing happens to you the most important thing to do is always get medical treatment and always follow the doctor’s instructions. Keep track of all the money and time you spend getting medical treatment and let Andrew know how you feel. Overall, I’m very glad to have met Andrew and I’m grateful to my wife for choosing him

Car Accident

Having been involved in Accident back in Dec. rather than try and handle it myself, decided to contact Andrew Skinner ( Skinner Law ) best decision i could have made, he handled it very professionally and during entire process ...kept us informed, Then when insurance tried to low ball us, he would not stand for that and within a few days he got exactly what was asked for, did not realize the complexity of such a process, learned a lot i didn,t know, So if you have a problem and think you need professional help, guarantee you will get it with Skinner Law.

Knowledgeable and responsive.

I'd highly recommend this law firm. I had a time sensitive case. Not only were they extremely responsive answering my questions, but also spent the extra time understanding my situation and in informing me of my options in a clear and understandable way. They did an amazing job checking the progress ...of my case and in keeping me up to date. I know whom I'm going to call if another legal mater arises.

Thank you to the Skinner law firm

I went to see Andrew Skinner to see if he could help me. My mortgage company was going to take my home from me because they said i fell behind on my payments and i hadn't. After talking with me and going over the paper work that i had taken to him Andrew told me not to worry he wasn't going to let... anyone take my home. He was true to his word not only did he stop them from taking my home he made them pay for the wrong they did to me. I also want to thank Andrew for being so kind to me and for being so understanding he just made me feel like things would be OK. When i left his office i just knew he was going to do everything in his power to help me and he did plus a lot more. Just like there TV ad They really do treat you like family and they do really care about you. I can't see how the Skinner Law Firm could in prove on there relationship with their clients because from the time you meet with them until your case comes to a end they treat you with kindness and most of all with respect and to a person like me that's a great feeling. I just can't say enough about them. If i ever need a attorney again you can bet i will go to Andrew Skinner you just can't beat him and how hard he works for you. So thanks to all of you for caring and being there for the little man.
