Great Lawyer!!!
While discussing another person's case with attorney Brassfield, I expressed the overwhelming feeling I had dealing with my own accident. Attorney Brassfield listened carefully, asked questions and then informed me that I also had a case. The burden of insurmountable paper work was lifted from me immediately. Attorney Brassfield is informative, knowledgeable, and proficient at discerning a case. Everything, including the professionalism of this firm, has exceeded my expectations.

The best attorneys you can have on your side!
I was in a serious car accident and hired the lawyers at BRASSFIELD, KRUEGER & RAMLOW, LTD. They promptly addressed my concerns and questions and resolved the case very quickly. They had all of my outstanding medical expenses paid and the case settled in less than a year and a half. After all of my medical bills and litigation costs were paid I received more than $500,000.00. I would highly recommend them to anyone that needs legal representation.

Chris, It was a pleasure having you as a client. As we discussed when you initially retained us as a client, we work aggressively and quickly to obtain the highest settlement possible for all of our clients. We filed suit immediately, and we were able to resolve all of your claims against the insurance company in just over a year after you were injured. We were pleased to represent you, and we wish you the best in the years to come. We also appreciate your review. Thank you. Dave

Bicycle Accident
I had a bicycle accident due to a neighbor's dog(s) charging me in the roadway causing a fall and significant damages to me. The neighbors are very nice people, but I decided to pursue a claim with their insurance company. I thought about trying to pursue my claim directly with the insurance company but decided that was not wise. Since I did not have a lawyer, I used AVVO to find Dave Brassfield who had a strong numerical rating and outstanding personal recommendations. Additionally I could find nothing negative concerning his practice. Dave was very professional and was able to achieve an amazing settlement in which the net proceeds were about 6 times the amount I thought I might achieve on my own. And he handled everything quickly, professionally, and without hassle. If you are in an accident and need a good lawyer, see David Brassfield. He has my strongest recommendation.

Don, I am very pleased that I was able to help you receive the settlement that you rightly deserve. You were seriously injured in this accident. I know I was able to resolve your case quickly (just a few months), but I worked very hard during that time to convince the insurance company to tender their policy limits. After we first met, I obtained all your medical records, reviewed and analyzed them, and fought the insurance company to tender their policy limits. I was able to do so based upon my knowledge of your injuries, other cases similar to yours, and the law. I'm also glad we were able to successfully reduce Medicare's lien, which ultimately increased the net amount of the settlement that you received. Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review. I am very appreciative. Helping clients like you get what you deserve makes practicing law enjoyable for me. Dave

Tireless Representation
David Brassfield is a consummate professional who works tirelessly for his clients. He is a skilled negotiator and I am so glad to have found him after being involved in a major auto accident. Ann Marie, part of his office staff, is wonderful. This is no cookie cutter firm. You are treated with respect and personal care.
Response from David Brassfield April 25, 2016
Darlene, Thank you so much for letting me help you with your personal injury case. I do work very hard for all my clients and I always try to achieve the highest dollar settlement for each of them. As you know, I am an aggressive advocate of your rights. I'm very glad I was able to get an excellent result for you, and I greatly appreciate your thoughtfulness in writing such a kind review about myself and our staff.

Excellent Attorney!
Attorney Brassfield took what to me seemed a hopeless situation and completely turned it around. I had been in a motorcycle accident and although I truly was not at fault I was given two tickets and all insurance benefits had been denied. It felt like such an injustice. Atty Brassfield truly listened and fought for me. Through his knowledge of and experience in the law he was able to have both tickets dismissed. Then he quickly and aggressively fought for what I can only define as a miracle of a settlement. I would absolutely recommend this Attorney. I was completely impressed with the attention that he gave the case and how quickly he resolved everything. He truly went above and beyond and I can't thank him enough.

Aurelio, Thank you so much for the kind words. I did work very hard on your case, as I do for all my clients. I'm very pleased that I was able to convince the prosecutor to dismiss both of your moving traffic citations. In my opinion, under the law, you were not guilty of either violation. From the first time I met you, I had always believed in your version of the events, and felt both tickets were unjustified. I'm also glad I was able to convince the insurance company to change their "at fault" position. All though they initially denied your claims, I was able to convince them that their insured was, indeed, at fault. I wish you and your family the best of luck, and please call me if you should require any future legal needs. Dave Brassfield

Highly Recommended Attorney
I would highly recommend David Brassfield’s legal experience. He was respectful, organized and reliable. He took his time explaining all the information to me, so I didn't feel anymore overwhelmed. He is very competent and was always very prompt in returning my calls or giving me a heads up about any developments in the case. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case. I would highly recommend David Brassfield to anyone seeking an attorney.
