Integrity and determination

Channika Desilva is a fantastic attorney whose remarkable achievements speak for themselves. She has relentlessly fought for my case and successfully recovered the compensation I needed to cover my medical expenses. As soon as I met her, I was amazed by her compassionate attitude and by the genuine i...nterest she took in my situation. Channika is one of the few attorneys who treat you as a person and not just as another case. With her astounding knowledge of the legal system, efficient approach and broad experience, the asbestos trust fund we filed the claim with awarded me a sum of money which was way larger that I’d expected, all by virtue of Channika’s proficiency.

My mesothelioma case was successful thanks to Channika DeSilva’s proficiency!

I’ve worked in a paper mill for nearly 20 years and asbestos was everywhere. Seven months ago I was diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma and needless to say, my family was devastated. My daughter was the one who convinced me to file a claim and now I’m really glad I listened to her. Channika DeSilv...a handled my case exceptionally. She was always there for us, making sure we understood what each step of the legal process involved, promptly answering all our questions and striving not to miss any important information concerning my case. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney!

A great lawyer you can count on

Channika DeSilva is without a doubt a highly competent and skilled attorney. At first, I was very skeptical and I thought my case didn’t stand a chance because I’d been diagnosed with mesothelioma two years before. However, all my doubts vanished after our first consultation and I was confident my cl...aim was going to be approved. I was thoroughly impressed by her remarkable knowledge of the legal system, dedication and spare-no-effort attitude. With Channika DeSilva’s legal representation, my case was a success and I can’t thank her enough for her services. She is a reliable professional and I’d recommend her to anyone who needs a competent attorney.

Channika DeSilva is an outstanding attorney who helped me enormously

I had been diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma at the beginning of 2015 but it was only last year that I finally decided to take action and file a claim against the company responsible for my exposure. I knew how difficult asbestos cases can be and this is why I was very reluctant to proceed, initial...ly. Despite my apprehensiveness and second thoughts, Channika DeSilva proved to be an excellent attorney. With her remarkable skills and experience, she helped me recover the compensation I needed so much to cover my medical expenses. Channika DeSilva is by far the most diligent professional I have ever encountered. Not only did she successfully carry out my case, but she has also assisted and advised me throughout the whole process. She is an amazing and compassionate attorney and I would recommend her services to anyone without hesitation.
