This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Rear-ended while at a complete stop

Mr. Anderson and his team worked with me in navigating through a car accident in which I was rear-ended while at a complete stop. What initially appeared to be minor in nature, grew in complexity quickly due to 1 car triggering a cascading sequence of 4 other cars impacting one another. In addition ...to always answering my questions in a timely manner, Pam Halsnik, Paralegal for Grimes, Teich & Anderson, worked closely with me to understand each stage of my case. We were able to close this case within a reasonable amount of time and to my satisfaction.

Review of Scott Anderson and his handling of my Workmans Comp case.

Mr. Anderson and his staff handled my case with compassion and great knowledge. From the time he walked into my home until the time of mediation he was with me every step of the way. His staff is knowledgeable and on top of your case. My case was not an easy one but Mr. Anderson and his staff handled... this case with great care. I could never find all the right word to express my thanks to him and his staff. When I couldn't get the medical help I needed they stepped in and I had it within day's ! His knowledge and hard work won my case and the out come was more than satisfactory. If you are looking for a lawyer that is compassionate , hard work and knowledgeable then hiring Mr. Anderson will be the very best move you can make, he will be honest and forthright with you from the first time you speak with him till the time you settle your case. He and his staff went above and beyond and I can sincerely not find enough words to thank him and his staff. Hiring him was the very best thing I could have done, he is a beyond a wonderful person and a excellent lawyer. He knows Workmans Comp and anticipates what they are going to do before they do it ! Hiring Mr. Anderson will be one of the very best moves you can make in regards to your Workmans Comp issues !
