Lawyer Review

Brad took my case with the full knowledge that we had an uphill fight with a huge company with many lawyers of their own in all states and all countries that they serve. Amazingly we won our case with much success. Brad explained in detail what I would expect which took much of the fears of the situ...ation. I’m very pleased with the outcome and plan to use Brad as my attorney from now on.

Very stress free consultation!

I had concerns regarding a workers compensation case. I put off contacting a lawyer for some time out of fear that it would be complicated and overwhelming. My experience with Mr. Harville couldn’t have been any easier, it was totally painless. During the initial phone call, Mr. Harville explained to... me that he would be willing to meet to look at my case, and offer any advice as to the fairness of the settlement for a free consultation. The in person meeting was very simple and laid back. I left feeling much better about the case, as he had offered some advice on how to move forward. There was no pressure, he didn’t try to sell me anything. He gave me sensible options and information and let me know how he would proceed if we chose to challenge the settlement options. Mr. Harville is a very down to earth guy, I felt that he did a great job of explaining some of the more legal aspects of my case. I did not elect to hire Mr. Harville as his advice has helped me get a grasp on the details of my settlement. However, if things regarding the settlement stall or become overwhelming, I will hire Me. Harville in a heartbeat.

Best attorney in town

Brad Harville made my accident so much easier to deal with. He was very helpful in helping me understand what I needed to do and what he was doing for me as well. He worked long days and nights to make sure he was doing everything he needed to do to win my case. He has been there for myself and my fa...mily throughout both of our accidents and has made the process much easier to deal with. I wouldn't recommend anyone else in town.

Not just a client.

I immediately felt at ease when I met Brad and Dana. Throughout my 2.5 year process, I had a lot of bad times. They were always available if needed, communicated well with status of case, or even if I just needed a friend to talk to, they were there. Thanks to Brad and Dana, I have a great opportuni...ty to have a peace of mind and new life. I would/will recommend them to anyone who needs more than just a lawyer. It's good to know through the darkest of days they are with you the whole step of the way. Much appreciated Brad and Dana. Kind Regards, David B.

Great workman comp lawyers.

U had work injury and knew nothing about work comp process. My wife called and Bradley talked to her for 30-40 minutes about what to do and to expect as my injury healing process continued. When I was ready to start settling my case, again we called and met with Bradley. He had us meet with Dana S...kaggs. She was amazing. She worked hard for me. She kept me very informed every step of the way, and always made sure she was working my case and doing what was best for me. I feel that they went above and beyond what was expected for my case. Dana fought for ever penny she could get for me. She could have just let me settle throughout the process, but she kept pushing me thru and reassuring me that it would be ok. I could not have asked for anyone better. I would highly recommend this law firm for your injury case. You are not just a client, you are family. Your not just a $ sign here, you important. I am extremely pleased with the work and dedication I was given. If you want hard working dedicated representation, this is the firm to trust and hire to handle your case. I give them 5 stars only because more stars are not available. Thank you so much Bradley Harold and especially Dana Skaggs for you dedication and professionalism in handling my case. GEORGE AND TAMMY R.
