Great Lawyer and very quick reponse when I needed it

We contacted the office after my family needed help and they took our request seriously and responded immediately. We are relieved with the quick and decisive way John Raihala handled the situation. The results could not have been more satisfactory. I would recommend them to anyone as we couldn't be ...happier!

The human element

John Raihala is simply outstanding at not only the legal aspects, but the people aspects as well. By that, I mean that he never forgets that the human element is at the heart of every case. He was empathetic, patient, and understanding. He was also very tactful and realistic when it came to the situa...tion and possible outcomes of my case. I would highly recommend John to others!

Very helpful and caring

If you need a good lawyer, I strongly recommend John Raihala at Clifford & Raihala.  My case was from a drunk driver turning in front of me and causing me to crash. Then, the insurance company refused to treat me fairly. I hired John to help me and he did a great job. Throughout my case he always to...ok the time to listen to me and answer my questions so I understood what was happening. John worked with my doctors and put together a strong team on my side. In the end John made the insurance company pay me for everything I lost.

Experienced Professional - Results Prove It!

I worked with attorneys who referred me to John Raihala for my case. His experience added to my confidence throughout the process and my situation was resolved. My case wasn't standard and the results were excellent. That personal approach was another quality I valued so highly.

Great job by a dedicated attorney

After a tragic and unexpected event in a medical procedure caused a wrongful death, I hired John Raihala. He was always compassionate and supportive and helped me get through a painfully trying time and process. At every step, he explained and kept me informed. He was always available, returned ...all calls and answered all questions respectfully. Throughout the case, I always felt that it was just as important to him to get justice for my loved one as it was for me. John’s legal work was excellent too, and I was very satisfied with the settlement he obtained for me. And, he helped me find out what really happened! In retrospect, he prepared me for the mediation session that resulted in a settlement with tact and kindness which could have been even more difficult. John came highly recommended by other attorneys and I add to that recommendation. I am very grateful.
