Cool guys and great lawyers!

A distracted driver hit me. He went right through a red light looking at his phone. I was injured bad. I had to have 2 surgeries on my neck and shoulder. At the time of the wreck I was in my work vehicle so I had a work comp claim and a claim against the driver. Rocky, Steve and Paige handled everyth...ing. I didn’t have to do anything. They were constantly in contact with me. I never had any doubts they were always in my corner and fighting for my best interests. They made sure I knew what was going on for each step of my case. He and Paige went above and beyond after I accepted a settlement offer to work with my health insurance and collectors to reduce my medical bills and put more money back in my pocket. I absolutely recommend the Rocky, Steve and all the lawyers at Rocky McElhaney Law firm

Auto accident while on the job

I was involved in a MVA while on the job and I tried to settle the claim without seeking an attorney's advice. The opposing insurance offered me very little for the amount of injury and continued difficulties I have. I was so insulted and my feelings were so hurt that the insurance company did not va...lue me or my health that I started crying. I called my husband who told me to call Rocky. I called Rocky and he assured me that he would work hard for me. He told me that I should also seek compensation from workers compensation. He was able to obtain a settlement from worker's compensation and the opposing car insurance company. He and his office staff made me feel that they had my best interests at heart. He kept me informed throughout the process and we were able to settle during mediation. I wish that I was not involved in a car accident and it was not a fun experience but I am so glad that I chose Rocky and his law firm to represent me. I would highly recommend his firm for anyone struggling with a personal injury.

I couldn't think of a better attorney to have other than my friend and lawyer Rocky McElhaney.

Rocky hasn't been only a lawyer to me. He's also been my friend. I've known Rocky for almost 19 years. How I found Rocky was when I was injured at work. I had fell 14 feet into a crevice under a building. I was injured pretty bad and need somebody's help with my insurance and so on. It was a re...ally bad time in my life. He came to my house to meet with me and to look and see exactly what had happened. I felt like I was in good hands going through something I'd never dealt with before. Somehow he was able to get my case settled within four months. I couldn't think of a better attorney to have other than my friend and lawyer Rocky McElhaney.

Rocky and Dena are my Lifesaver

I'm going to say right now, my story is not going to be like everybody else on here but God gives us all different struggles and I hope this helps somebody. This firm has helped me through one of the darkest times of my life. On January 3, 2012, I got the call that I had been fired after enduri...ng a horrible neck injury from getting hurt at work a year prior. Bills were behind, my car was broke down and I so did I. They cut my insurance off, they cut my comp check off. Everything stopped in one day. I had to leave my apartment. I had no where to live. They called me and told me they were sending me to pain management and that there was nothing else they could do for my injury. Three years went by, I kept telling the pain management doctor that I knew it was not muscle pain. Every visit, I would tell the doctor that could hardly move, that it felt like lighting was striking across my body. I couldn't move my fingers. Finally, they sent me for a test and told me that my work injury had worsened. The disk had moved and was sitting right on top of the nerve. They told me the ONLY way they could treat it was with steroid shots and pills they wouldn't do surgery- which is what I really needed to correct the issues. I couldn't do anything I loved anymore. I couldn't be with my grandkids. I couldn't play music. I couldn't leave the house without taking a pill. I was so depressed and ashamed. I've never been addicted to anything. I felt like nothing. I did things I'm not proud of but I couldn't handle the pain. Work comp didn't care, they sent me a letter to tell me that they would no longer provide me with care because I ended up abusing the pills that they got me hooked on. I didn't want to be me no more. I didn't want to be here anymore. I couldn't trust nobody. The only person I could call was Rocky. I told Rocky he was my last hope. They only person that could help me and Rocky told me "If you listen to me and get off these pills, I will get you through this- everything will be alright, Alex." And that's when my life changed- finally for the better. And now I know looking back that God, Rocky and my girlfriend and my good friends and very spiritual family are the only reason I that am still here today. Rocky and Dena, got me to treatment right away. They pushed for it. It wasn't easy. I didn't want to at first. But Rocky, Dena, and my doctor got me over the pills. They got me around the curve. They saved my life from a place I never thought it could go. Rocky fought for me. We never went to court, but Rocky just went to work. The adjuster was a nightmare and he spared me from that. He fault hard to secure me a great settlement. After living on $75 a week for four years it was an unbelievable feeling to be able to provide for my family, to buy my kids and grandkids Christmas presents, to be able to laugh and enjoy people. I have a new car that I'm proud of and so thankful for. I still live in unbearable pain everyday but I'd rather lay in my bed all day then destroy my life with another pill. I'm living drug free and that I've won my life back. Getting injured at work and dealing with work comp and their doctors took so much from me. But Rocky Law helped me get my life back and I'm stronger for it. A pill don't fix you, it makes you worser. I will never let anybody else in my life tell me different. This firm represents freedom from that to me.

Good man. Amazing Lawyer.

Rocky McElhaney has went way beyond being a lawyer, he is like a family member. I was badly burned in an industrial accident in 2001 by phosphorus. That day my whole life changed. My family and the doctors didn't even think I was going to make it. Thankfully, I pulled through. Rocky was there by... my side from the hospital all the way through the entire fight with work comp and social security. He was there through everything. He went to the doctor visits with me, he was there when I needed him on my worst days, even asked me if he could help paint my house to help me out. I'm telling you, I don't know of any lawyer out there who would treat me so good. We've went to court several times either because workers' comp was trying to cut my meds or because of a social security hearing. Every time it's a nerve-racking experience, but Rocky eased my fears, told me how things were going to go every step of the way. He always did his homework, knew the law, always knew what was going on in my case and when it was time to get in front of the judge he always dominated and made things right. Because Rocky was in my corner, my case was successful. I went through so much depression because of my accident- I can honestly say, I don't think I'd be here if it wasn't for him. At the bleakest times in my life he gave me hope. He even got me additional lump sum in social security payments where initially I was told I was going to be owing social security. He really turned that around! This man is incredible. If you don't know who to turn to after an accident like mine, or a car accident, or other personal injury and you just hire somebody else, you're experience WILL be totally different, and you could be taking a big risk with your future. When you hire Rocky, you can trust he and his team do everything they can to ensure that you get the compensation you deserve and so desperately need. There is no attorney out there like Rocky!
