Motorcycle Accident

3/05/2021 a person pulled in front of me and I hit broadside throwing me from motorcycle and over car landing face down on concrete Aprox 80’ past point of impact. Lucky to have survived with so much pain I waited to heal at home because Covid 19 had just hit. A month into my healing during a long so...aking bath to reduce pain and inflammation I realized something very serious was wrong in my reproductive area. Still bruised and swollen I called an attorney I grew up with named Mike Tipps and immediately he recommended me to James Belote with Stipe & Belote Law Firm after seeing the pictures. I met with Mr Belote signed a contract two power of attorney’s and a total of 4 releases and Mr Belote got my case settled quickly with a big return. He always answered all my calls and texts and even consulted and provided document preparation on some unrelated issues. Mr Belote truly cared about me and the damage done to me and he made them pay. Now it’s been compensated and case closed we are friends and he still answers my calls or texts. If you have been in a accident call James Belote. Do not delay because the sooner you call him the sooner he can go to work for you.

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.
