mediation assistance on a personal injury claim

John helped my father with a difficult claim against a nursing home. my father was in the home for rehabilitation after surgery. while there, he was attacked by another resident . the nursing home knew that this other resident had attacked other people in the home, and had a history of violence, ...and did nothing about it. the claim had to be mediated, and john allan did a great job in mediating the claim and getting my father a monetary award.
