Charles is a Fantastic Car Accident Attorney!

Charles Sanders is a fantastic attorney. I retained Charles when I got into a motor vehicle accident and Charles got me a great high dollar settlement! I received individualized one-on-one attention. Whenever I had a question about the status of my case, Charles was always available to take my call. ...He made a otherwise stressful situation into a great experience. Charles refused to let the insurance company bully me. I would highly recommend the Charles Sanders for anyone involved in a motor vehicle accident.

Posted by Deshawnesia Williams | July 08, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Divorce

I hired Charles to handle my divorce and child custody suit. My ex-husband was being very difficult. He was not making the process easier on me or my daughter. When Charles came into the case, he was always there to talk to me when my emotions got the best of me. Charles always was able to calm ...me down. In the end, Charles was able to get my divorce and cild custody matter settled a mediation. I was shock given that my ex husband was doing everything to make the process difficult for me. Thank you Charles. There will always be a place in my heart for you. What stood out about Charles was his compassion. Charles treated me as if I was a member of his family. Once again THANK YOU CHARLES

18 wheeler Accident

I hired Charles Sanders after an 18 wheeler truck ran my car off the road while driving on the freeway. I suffered a hurt neck, lower back and fractured shoulder. After the accident, I was traumatized. I did not want to drive anywhere and I was in severe pain. Charles was recommended to me by a f...riend. After retaining Mr. Sanders, he set me up to visit a orthopedic surgeon and other physicians to treat me for my injury. Mr. Sanders fronted the costs for all of my medical treatment which was very important to me, as my health insurance has a very high deductible. After 1 year of continuous treatment, I recovered, even though I will always have neck pain. Charles got me the settlement that I had coming to me. Charles is very adaptable, outgoing, intelligent. I am so happy that I found Charles. I highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a zealous advocate.

Fantastic Advocate

I hired Charles to handle my auto accident claim w/Allstate. When I first hired Charles, I had been handling my own auto claim and I was sick of dealing with Allstate's games. Once I hired Charles, the adjuster stopped messing around. Charles was able to get my claim back on the right track. Alls...tate still denied my claim; however, Charles filed a lawsuit and was able to settle with them after taking a few depositions. I am very happy with my results. Thank you.

Got in a bad car wreck and I got hurt and Charles helped

Mr. Charles Sanders represented me after I was in a car accident where I sustained neck, back, and right shoulder injuries. I was recommended for surgery. Mr. Charles Sanders got us the policy limit on the defendants auto policy. He did a spectacular job. I would have lost my mind dealing with the... insurance company without Charles who handled it all from the MRI's / doctors / rehab ... everything. Five stars. Class act. This was a particularly hard case because a previous injury gave the insurance company a "back door" to not pay - which is standard operating procedure for them - Charles held them accountable. I am very grateful for his work. Thank you Charles.
