Gets The Job Done!

An accident attorney is someone you never really WANT to hire, but I now have Damian's office on speed dial because when an accident happens I've found it's vital to have someone who knows the law thoroughly to make sure the greedy, unscrupulous insurance companies don't bully you around. This is th...e 2nd time I've been in an accident. I sought out Damian the first time, but the second time he was the first person I called. Don't wait til you've had an accident....put this man's office in your contact list now because if you get into an accident he and his team will treat you with professionalism and also ensure that you are compensated for all injuries and/or pain you endure.

My first call after an accident...

I highly recommend Mr. Mallard and his staff if you have a case that needs to be handled. I literally put my health and piece of mind in his hands and he handled this responsibility with the upmost respect. He and his staff went above and beyond to get me anything I needed and walked me through the e...ntire litigation and healing process with care and an iron fist on my behalf when necessary. He has a heart for his clients and is the protector you need when going up against the tough and unscrupulous insurance companies. Don't hesitate to call his office when you need someone on your team.

Personal injury lawyer | Apr 10

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I worked for Damian for almost 2 years. While I decided that personal injury litigation was not a field of law I enjoyed practicing, I learned a lot from Damian during my time there. Foremost, he is candid and honest with his clients. Additionally, he is a phenomenal trial attorney, with great attention to detail, a bulldog in depositions and courtrooms and obtains great results for his clients. While I was there, we secured a $1.3 million verdict for one of our clients and after I left, on a case we mock tried together, he obtained a $5 million verdict for his client. A defense lawyer by training, now practicing almost exclusively on the plaintiff's side of the courtroom, his defense training, experience and knowledge of defense techniques and strategies gives him a leg up on competition. I continue to refer personal injury clients to him as I know he will obtain the best result possible."
