Thank you so much for your help!

After being run down by a careless driver while riding my bike, I needed to take advantage of a free legal consultation. I am forever grateful to this compassionate group of people who pointed me in the right direction and taught me about some of the ins and outs of insurance claims. A very big thank... you to both Bryan and Troy who provided me with encouragement and valuable information. They were both so knowledgeable and generous with their time. I now feel very confident moving forward and handling this claim on my own. If I needed to hire an attorney, I would not hesitate to contact the VanMeveren Law Group. Thank you!!

Jolene Blair/Andrea Harokopis

Jolene led me through not one accident but two. I highly recommend her for your needs. Jolene and Andrea kept me well informed. Very prompt to notify me, phone calls and emails quickly returned. They are very knowledgeable, and if I am ever in need in the future,I will only reach out to them.

Professional, Persistent, and Productive

Our personal injury case was a difficult situation for the VanMeveren law group to have taken. There were complexities compounded by actions taken by the defendants, such as erasing a video tape which would have confirmed our story. This case took over two years to get settled in our favor. It finall...y did, thanks to the incredible persistence by our lead attorney Troy Ukasick with the backing of his staff and the VanMeveren firm. Troy's knowledge and experience was the correctly applied measure to get this case resolved. He diligently overcame resistance, evasion and obfuscation by the defendants' attorney who, in my view, wasted a lot of everyone's time. Troy knew the procedures and was highly efficient in the law and process. In all that legalese, he also was always personable and cared about us as human beings. On a personal note, lawsuits usually aren't fun. But the act of walking into Troy's office was always pleasant. Troy and his legal assistant Amy were personable, gracious, professional and even fun to be around. They made the anticipated "misery" of legal proceedings into something understandable and clear. It was always a joy to be in their presence. While I hope to never endure legal proceedings again, if I had to I would immediately turn to Troy and his team for their guidance. Everyone is truly appreciated and I thank them.

Incredible Firm

I was very hesitant to contact a law firm to help my son and I with two unrelated incidents. As soon as we met with the professionals at VanMeveren Law Group and specifically Karl Hager I knew that we had made the right decision. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Karl. He is professional, et...hical, and brilliant as well as compassionate and truly caring. Karl knew my hesitations and concerns with each of these suits and he made sure that they were handled sensitively and with integrity. I felt like I was a part of the process and I was informed about the progress in both cases on a consistent basis. Karl and Andrea were both easily accessible and were willing to answer questions as well as listen to any thoughts or concerns I might have throughout the entire process. Karl and his associates had flawless customer service and made sure that they knew every detail of both of our cases. It is with high regard that I recommend this group to anyone who may ever need their assistance.

A Wonderful and Hard Working Team

My husband and I were in a terrifying and life changing auto accident last summer and I knew that we were going to need the assistance of an attorney to negotiate with the insurance company. I stressed over finding someone who would not only be strong and knowledgeable in dealing with the insurance p...iece, but also represent us in an ethical manner. I could not have been more pleased to find Bryan and his team at VanMeveren Law Group. They were compassionate, professional, and unbelievably hard working. Bryan and Jolene treated us as if we were their only concern and responded to every question we had without delay. I would recommend VanMeveren Law Group to anyone who needs help with a personal injury matter - they were a source of light for us when we most needed it.

I think that his experience of working on both the plaintiff and defendant side of insurance cases gives him a deeper knowledge of how to get the best settlement for his clients. His case analysis is thorough, concise and all encompassing. He has built a solid reputation with insurance companies of producing quality work which gives his clients the advantage of quicker than average settlements.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
