This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Ausband is an excellent lawyer. He fought the insurance company all the way to the trial and when they would not offer a fair settlement, Mr. Ausband tried the case and the jury awarded over $3 million dollars against the other driver and his insurance company.

When it comes to trucking accidents, you want Andy on your side!

Andy walked my wife and I through a grueling two year ordeal after my wife was rear ended by a tractor trailer and suffered back and neck injuries. A business associate referred us to Andy, and hiring him was the best decision we made throughout the process. My wife's injuries proved to be more ser...ious than we first thought. Andy guided us through the process and patiently waited for my wife's injuries to be fully diagnosed and her prognosis to be fully determined by her doctors before making a settlement demand on the insurance company. He rebuffed early offers by the insurance company to settle for amounts he knew would not be fair if my wife's injuries turned out to be more serious. He encouraged us to be patient through the process. Fortunately, because of Andy's experience and good reputation, the insurance company had to keep increasing their settlement offer in light of my wife's more serious injuries. We were able to reach a very satisfactory settlement without going to trial. We could not have been more pleased with the work Andy did for us. We highly recommend his firm to anyone who has been injured in a trucking accident!

Trucking accident lawyer | Nov 12

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have referred and worked with Andy on several Trucking cases. Andy is an absolute professional and a highly skilled trucking accident lawyer who achieves extraordinary results for his clients. I recently refered a former client to Andy whose family members were involved in an accident when their minivan was hit by a tractor trailor. They had already met with a lawyer who promised a quick settlement. They decided to hire Andy who immediately filed suit. During litigation Andy discovered significant favorable evidence for his client which led to a settlement before trial which was twice the amount promised by the lawyer who the client first met with."

"I have worked with Andy Ausband on a number of trucking and personal injury cases. Andy is an excellent trial lawyer who has won many victories for his clients. The clients we have represented together have always been very satisfied with the results but more importantly several have made the comment that they would hire us again or send us a referral in the future. Andy's passion to help the injured seek justice is a big reason for such coments."
