THANK YOU !!!

Mr. Hills is a very awesome Attorney. Mr. Hills will call you throughout your insurance claim, or his team, day or night. as I work graveyards. All are very professional and kind. I thought I did a good job dealing with my insurance, getting my truck paid off as my insurance did so. Mr. Hills e...xplain how the insurance claims works, as the insurance Co. did not explain the extra money that I pay for on my vehicle insurance. now I can pay off the 20% that my health insurance did not pay. Mr. Hills and his team are very trustworthy and honest ! Listen.... If your in an accident call Mr. Hills!! I know if I I'm ever in another accident ( lord I hope not ever again!! ) I will call Mr. Hills before calling my insurance. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!!!

Excellent Attorney

Brian has been very kind and helpful, so thankful for his services and his team of advocates, whom have been super sweet and very attentive! I want to thank Martha Black as well who has helped and has been very informative on educating about insurance options and companies; on how to protect yourself... from accidents. In overall excellent service, very attentive and so helpful. Brian and his team have fought for my case and have given it their all. They helped me obtain my money and the physical therapy and other treatments needed to recover from a car accident. Thank you guys so much. I definitely recommend them!

Great service

Muy buen abogado! Mi mamá tuvo una accidente y nunca pensó en meter una demanda, pero cuando me tocó llamar con la aseguranza para solucionar su problema siempre me colgaban y duraba horas en espera fue cuando decidí buscar por abogado y como no conocía a nadie decidí buscar en Google. Decidí contact...ar a Brian Hills por su rating y fue la mejor decisión que pudimos aver tomado no sólo recibió un monto que nunca esperábamos si no que también ofrecen un buen servicio al cliente y estuvieron siempre al servicio de mi Mamá. Muchas gracias a ellos por todo lo que hicieron por nosotros. Si pundiera darles mas estrellas se las daría.

Car accident

I really appreciated all the work Brian and his office crew helped me! Not knowing what my insurance common was trying to do with me and not consider my life and the way of life I now have because of the accident that wasn't even my fault ! But I have to live with the pain the rest of my life! Brian ...helped me by making appointments for me and all the paper work which made it less stressful for me. I would hire them again if I needed to and I would refer them to anyone!

Brian did a Great Job.

My auto accident injury case went from being a complicated case where a third party caused the accident but was not involved with the collision and left the scene as though nothing had happened. A witness was able to get the license plate number from the third party. With that information Brian was a...ble to file claims against both the insurance companies of both the driver that hit me and the driver that fled the scene. The settlements that I received from the insurance companies was much more than I was expecting and I was very pleased with the results. One thing that I regret is that I didn't contact him earlier. It was several months after the accident that I hired Brian. I thought that I could handle the claims by myself and what I ended up with was being shut out by the insurance company, they wouldn't take my calls, return messages, or reply to emails. Brian opened up their communication and bank account for me. Also as a word of advise, these cases take a lot longer to finalize that I realized. It was over a year after the accident that the case was finalized. Be patient.
