Nursing home neglect case

I called the day before to request an attorney to review my mother’s nursing home incident. The next day I was scheduled to meet with both partners of the firm- Justin and Frank to discuss the details. Justin told me right away that he would take on the case and it would be on contingency and I wou...ld not be charged a dime. I was immediately put at ease that someone was fighting in my corner. Much thanks to Justyn, his team of attorneys, and paralegals that assisted my mother’s nursing home neglect case. Thanks again to Justin and “High and Younes” for all that you do!

Genuine Integrity

It's easy to see why Justin and his team have earned all the awards they have. They are honest and truly care about helping the people who reach out to them for assistance. I had a very complicated situation that involved components of both employment and defamation. Justin listened, provided me w...ith some of his initial thoughts and connected me with another firm that specialized in the defamation aspects of the matter before I had even decided whether to pursue any kind of case. He didn't just pass me along, try to convince me to pursue an employment issue alone or write me off either. He and Ashley came along beside me to help me navigate the process, ask the right questions to get clear answers, and thoroughly explain possible options and outcomes. They showed genuine integrity and concern in helping me determine next steps regarding a situation that has had a significant impact on my personal and professional identity and it is for that reason that I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal services.

Very professional and effective Lawyer and team

I was in a car accident in May 2021. I was told by the insurance company of the person who hit me that because I wasn't injured, I would only receive $1,200 for potential doctors visits and $3,000 for the value of my truck. I told them they had no clue if I was injured or not because I hadn't gotten... any scans of tests done yet, but my neck was hurting badly and I also told them I would be getting a lawyer. I contacted Justin from a referral a friend gave me. I'm extremely glad I contacted him and his team, because they took my accident seriously. I got tests done and went to professionals for my back pain. I found that I had bulging disc's and a tear in my spine. After a couple years of constant chiropractic care, shots in my back and many more appointments and missed work, my case was settled and for much more than what the insurance said I would get. I believe Justin and his team did a great job of handling my case and getting me fair compensation for the pain and damages I accrued over the last few years. I would recommend them to anyone who is involved in an accident!

"Although fairly new to Avvo, the answers of Mr. High are consistently accurate, analytic, and customized to the needs of the Avvo askers. These are exactly the qualities that every client would look for when hiring an attorney. Further, he is very polite is discussing the answers of other counsel. This means in "real life" practice, he will be very effective in advancing the objectives of his clients."
