A Truly Great Man
Few words can express what Andrew Sommerman has meant to me and my sister. Our family suffered a devastating loss, and Andy was there to represent us, carry us through the difficult journey, defend our rights and stand for us. Andy's staff were more than our attorneys: they were our champions and heroes. Andy's firm employs professionals who are always at the ready, and the lawyers and staff reflect Any's leadership and the integrity to which he has devoted his life. We hold Any in the highest esteem and feel blessed to have been represented by him during a tragic and challenging time. He was fearless and carried us to the successful result for which our family will be eternally grateful.
