Workers comp
Sam helped me with a workers compensation issue. He started off explaining the process to me which was extremely helpful and I felt like I was in the loop through the entire process. He maintained contact with me and always answered my emails and phone calls in a timely manner. In the end I received a settlement check from workers compensation that I was happy with. This was a stressful process and I was glad to have Sam by my side. I would highly recommend Sam and if I ever get in a situation where I would need an attorney again I wouldn't hesitate to give him a call.

Workman's Comp
Sam was very helpful with all my questions and concerns. I was looking for guidance (consulting) with the workman's comp process, to insure all was being conducted fairly. Sam answered all the questions and stayed in contact with me regularly. He has kept the door open for me to contact him if any future issues were to occur. I would recommend/refer him to anyone in need of a personal injury lawyer. Very professional and thank you. You made this long process much less stressful for me.

Experienced, Reliable, and Trustworthy
We found ourselves in need of Sam’s help after a workplace injury rendered one of our family members in need of medical care and unable to return to work. The process of dealing with worker’s comp, authorizations, multiple doctors appointments, and examinations was confusing and overwhelming. Our family was grateful to have Sam as a resource to turn to. His experience, guidance, and expertise were invaluable in navigating the worker’s comp process. He diligently followed up with us through the process, taking time to explain not only what was happening, but why. His thorough explanations and understanding of the system gave us confidence when making decisions, we trusted his guidance.
I highly recommend Sam because of the expertise he brings and also for the peace of mind you will get by having a reliable, knowledgeable advocate in your corner. He will get the job done, do it right, and fight for your best interests. We could not have navigated this process by ourselves, many thanks to Sam for helping us through this challenging time.
