Personal Injury Case

Paul Cranston was a wonderful lawyer and I would highly recommend him and the rest of the staff in his office. I felt completely comfortable throughout my entire case being able to contact them with any questions or concerns. He is highly thorough and truly cares for his clients and wants to see them... do well. They work hard to settle your case and make sure you are comfortable and well informed at each step. I couldn't have asked for a better group of people to help me during this time.

Auto accident c

I was involved in an auto accident and used Paul as my lawyer. Paul recovered all insurance limits. I was very pleased with the representation I received.

Malpractice suit

Paul was such a blessing to us. He worked so hard on my case and spent many hours doing his job to the best of his ability. He cared about my family and me. He called to see if I was well and just to touch base with me. He didn't hold anything back from me and saw both sides of the case so that he co...uld anticipate any problems. He explained , in layman's terms, anything that I didn't understand. He's a wonderful, caring man. He cares about you as much as he cares about your case.

Auto Accident Client

In November, I was in a bad car accident that left me with the inability to do my job and medical expenses that were increasing. With the other driver being underinsured, I was left with having to piece everything back together myself. My insurance company was unwilling to pay for my lost expenses ...and I did not know what to do. I came to Paul and he immediately jumped into action and took over my case. He worked diligently to deal with my insurance company to get me what I deserved.
