Biography

Practice Areas

Helped more than 200 individuals protect and preserve their rights against aggressive auto insurance defense teams. Experience includes multiple trials with good jury verdict results when the auto insurance companies refuse to proved fair compensation. Don't settle for an attorney who settles, get competent counsel from an experienced trial lawyer.

Wrongful Death 25%

Representing families for claims of wrongful death presents unique challenges and opportunities to help people when things seem to be at their worst. Obtaining accountability on behalf of families is the best thing I could ever do with my law degree.

Medical Malpractice 20%

Have handled more than 100 medical malpractice cases. It is becoming more and more challenging to represent families and individuals injured by medical negligence in Utah due to some very significant lobbying by the malpractice insurance companies. The economics and and pitfalls of litigating a medical malpractice case make this area of practice a highly specialized and difficult to navigate.

Appeals 5%

In addition to handling appeals arising out of my own case load, I am often retained as private appellate counsel by other lawyers to provide services on appellate cases including everything from ghost writing briefs all the way to full entry of appearance and representation throughout the appellate process.

GREAT HACKER

Had a credit union mistakenly apply my payment 2 days later than I should have missing my statement and date. They said they fixed the mistake and I will see this correction on my next statement but the issue is it was reported to the bureaus with wrong amount prior to them correcting this. The amoun...t is over $16k so this is making a huge impact on my credit score/utilization/total balances and ability to get approved for new credit. Well, I fixed my credit and got rid off my debts with the help of PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST whom a trusted friend recommended and he did a perfect job increasing my credit score to (801 TransUnion, 805 Experian, 807 Equifax) all credit card debts are marked as paid, public record, bankruptcy and hard inquiries are all gone. I’m so happy. I refer this great hacker to those who have a fixed date to fix their credit profile. Text PINNACLE ON +1 (585) 466 4373. Tell them Tricia Walton Referred you.

Highly Recommend

Mr Summerill has represented me before and has always had answers to all my legal concerns and questions. I have since recommended him to several of my acquaintances.
