My lawsuit

I had a workman's comp case and a personal injury case. Laura handled my workman's comp and TJ handled my personal injury. My case was extraordinary and I broke my back from a roll over accident on I 80 . I was a passenger in a work vehicle that some lunatic in a semi attempted to run us off the i...nterstate. He took off we never knew who or why this happened but I can say he was very angry and not at me at my driver. Long story short the case had multiple issues and both Laura and TJ handled my case with skill and care. I let them do their job and both did a very professional and excellent execution of my case and easily won it for me. They have both helped to change my life I thank them very much. I can only say that I recommend them both to the highest quality of lawyers. If you need real help want to get what you deserve. This is your perfect picks for confidence in a lawyer. Thanks TJ and Laura for all you've done.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
