Review Chad Tuschman

Excellent Lawyer

Posted by anonymousMon Apr 23 2018

We hired Mr. Tuschman's firm after the death of my brother. Chad explained the process every step of the way and was always available to answer my questions. He always responded to my emails and phone messages in a timely manner. I was always treated in a professional manner when dealing with Mr. Tuschman and his firm. I would not hesitate to hire Mr. Tuschman should the need ever arise.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

Chad is as good a civil litigator as they come. He has the highest level of professionalism, and experience, in medical malpractice, along with other tort claims. He has top level trial experience, and the jury verdicts and settlements to prove it. Strongly recommend.
