Rodney helped me with an auto accident claim and was very helpful. Could not have gotten thru it without his help. I struggled getting treatment after my accident and he immediately helped me find medical care. He always followed up with me and was right on target with everything he promised. I will definitely recommend him to my family and friends. You won't be disappointed!

Great attorney

I was involved in an car accident and needed help fighting the other drivers insurance company. I felt pressured to settle so I could move on with my life. Thank goodness I followed a friends advice and hired Mr. Townsend. He handled my case professionally and always had my best interests in mind. I'll never hire anyone else, he is the best!

Highly recommended

People make mistakes and deserve a second chance. That's what Mr. Townsend got me, my second chance. He kept me informed about my case, returned my phone calls and ended up getting my criminal case dismissed. I am highly pleased with him and would recommend him to anyone facing any criminal matter. Thanks to you and your staff.

Client review

When tragedy struck our family Mr. Townsend was there for us and was not going to back down against the big company that injured my husband and my children's father. He will always be our lawyer.
