Long Process but kept me informed along the way

In March of 2021 I was in a car accident where I was at a dead stop and hit at a speed above 65 MPH from behind. I was in the ICU with a number of injuries. I did not have any intention of getting a lawyer, no "lawyering up", I should be able to handle this myself. But before I was out of my 4 day...s in the hospital, I was getting calls from 2 different insurance companies telling me my settlement was ready. That is when I decided to get a lawyer. I had three different conversations with three different offices. I picked Scott's office because it asked me one question the others did not, "What are your realistic expectations from the attorney you pick to represent you? I said I want my hospital bills paid, my car paid for since it was totaled, and my days that I missed work I would be paid. Scott said that is a realistic expectation and his office could help me. While the process was long, Scott's office kept me up to date, month to month and even had my own text line so I could contact them. Also, Scott called me to keep me informed of what was happening. Bottom-line is he and those in the office treated me with respect and kept to his word in how things would happen. While I hope I never have another accident, kif I do I will be calling Scott.

Excellent Legal Work with Supportive Information

Scott and his team were very effective representing my interests with a personal injury case. The detailed information provided from the initial consultation through the settlement, gave me confidence in who was handling my situation and that a quick resolution would be reached. Through emails, text... messages, and phone calls I was consistently updated on progress and asked about my input. Without a doubt I would recommend the Snellings Team, and would not hesitate in using them again. Excellent Legal Professionals!

Rear-ended by a careless driver

I was rear-ended by a careless driver.  Let me start with the basics, I was involved in a car accident that I thought was open/closed case. Same days a few hours later me and my son that was in the vehicle began feeling soreness in our back, neck, nausea and I was talking with very slow speech as if ...I was in slow motion and we both began feeling very sleepy lucky my husband was home and realized that this is not normal, he took us to the ER and from there on everything went downhill for me.  I suffered so much, lost memories, constant pain, my voice, self-confidence and so much more.  My husband found Scott on Google made an appointment saw Scott and was very pleased with him. Scott and his staff provided excellent service, demonstrating professionalism, caring and personal attention to all details of my case. Scott’s attitude to the work he does is impeccable, he and his staff was very informative in answering my questions and concerns, very accommodating and eased my worries. Scott worked diligently on my case saving me tones of money from my medical bills by reducing them as much as he can and got all my medical bills paid and I got a handsome amount for myself.  Thanks to Scott and his staff committed to getting my bills to reduce I am very pleased with the amount I received.  Overall, I highly recommend Scott he is honest, caring and will commit has a firmness of purpose and resolve to achieve your best interest.

Accident Stress Relieved

We trusted Snellings Law PC to handle our personal injury case as a result of my wife's auto accident in late December of last year (2016). "Trust" is the first word that comes to mind when reflecting on the work done for us by the firm, and Scott Snellings in particular. He and his staff communicate...d with us frequently throughout the legal and insurance processes. My wife was referred to top-quality specialists to treat her injuries from the accident. We paid no out-of-pocket expenses for any of the treatments. The final settlement for us was fair and received in a timely manner. We were happy that trial action was avoided.

Best Experience I Could Have Hoped For

The Burress Snellings Law Firm handled our accident / personal injury case in an exemplary manner. Scott Snellings was incredibly easy to work with and he walked us through the process step-by-step. He was attentive to our needs and empathetic, and the firm fought for every dollar we deserved while... making the process as painless as possible. Being involved in a motor vehicle accident is an extremely traumatic experience by itself, and I was dreading the “post accident” experience. I can’t tell you how appreciative I was of having an attorney who treated my wife and I like family. I hope we are never in the same situation again, but if we are, we will not hesitate to contact Scott and his firm. If you need an attorney, trust me when I say you can unequivocally do no better than The Burress Snellings Law Firm.
