Car Accident

Mr. Bonneau helped me settle my case from a car accident. It was a really bad time for me. I had a couple of surgeries. He helped me with big and small details. He always checked on me to insure I was getting the best of care from my doctors. He checked on me after each surgery. He is very kind, ...professional and easy to talk to. He made sure to stay in contact with me through everything. It took some time and patient on both our parts, but he never gave up on me or the process. Mr. Bonneau got me everything I was entitled to. He and his team are the best and they work very hard for you. You will not regret hiring him. I would recommend Hunt Bonneau to anyone and I promise you will not regret joining him and his team. They are very kind, helpful and friendly!

Hunt got me WAY more money than I ever expected!

I highly recommend Hunt Bonneau as a personal injury attorney. I was attacked and sustained a traumatic head injury, which resulted in brain damage and PTSD. Hunt was very patient with me and guided me every step of the way. He demonstrated a high degree of professionalism by diligently working on m...y case, answering all of my questions and caring about my situation. Hunt was very knowledgeable about the law and the legal process. He was also compassionate, straightforward and easy to contact either by phone or email and replied promptly. He really fought for me and made sure I was compensated very well for my injury (in fact, he got me WAY more than I ever expected). His friendly demeanor and genuine care and concern reassured me that I made the right choice. More than a year has passed and I cannot thank him enough and owe my continued progress to him! I will recommend him to my family and friends, as I know they will be in good hands.

Hunt left no stone unturned

HUNT lives up to his name and more. He left no stone unturned in my son's case. My son was left for dead after being hit by a drunk driver. This repeat offender not only left my son, but others at the scene in an attempt to not get caught again. He had state miniumum insurance on his vehicle and the ...bar that overserved him had allowed their insurance to lapse so there was a lot of work for Hunt and his para-legal Melissa to do. They handled everything so that I could take care of my son. They kept us informed and made us feel heard all the way through the process. Honest, genuine, resourceful and reliable, they went out of their way to fight for my son. Hunt was always available and often met with us face-to-face to discuss the case. Our calls and texts, if not taken immediately, were promptly returned. He treated us like we were the most important case he was working on. Kudos!

Excellent who genuinely cares about you and has integrity

Although he does not generally handle Murder charge, that was a 23 year old case, he took on my case believed in me and fought aggressively for my defense. He was very knowledgeable, has integrity, and really cares for his clients. He kept me well informed throughout the whole process. I had an excel...lent outcome thanks to the exceptional attorney that I had during this extremely difficult process. He took time to explain and kept me advised at all times of my options. He is definitely an exceptional attorney and I would recommend him highly.

I've never met an attorney who cared so much

I was recommended to Hunt Bonneau by John Gioffredi and what a great recommendation it was. I've worked with a number of attorneys and I have never met an an attorney who genuinely cared as much as Mr. Bonneau. He went above and beyond to make sure I was completely comfortable during the entirety of ...his legal services , even after his legal obligations ended he continued to check up and made sure I understood I could always reach out to him with any questions. I would definitely use Mr. Bonneau again and would highly recommend him.
