Posted by Pat | November 26, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Slip and Fall Accident

Karl Pearson Is An Attorney You Can Count On.

Karl represented my husband in a very complex slip and fall case. The settlement we got was far beyond what we had hoped for! I honestly believe that if not for Karl's tenacity, professionalism and impressive legal mind, we would have wound up with nothing. Over the many years since then, Karl h...as successfully handled several other legal matters for us. We have always been able to TRUST him to give us sound legal advice, keep us informed and treat us with kindness and respect.

Excellent lawyer

Before meeting Karl, I reached out to numerous lawyers to help me fairly deal with the damage caused after my motor vehicle accident. These lawyers refused to listen to my side of the story and were unable to foresee the situation like Karl did. Karl heard my side of the story, and immediately explai...ned my options and the probable outcome of my case. He was very professional, reliable and most importantly, won my case in a short amount of time! He dissected every detail of my car accident and educated me on the missing pieces that kept me awake at night. I believe my case was dealt fairly and thanks to Karl, justice was served!

Karl Pearson protected me and saved my home when other Attorneys could not or would not.

I met Karl through my employee assistance program and after one meeting I hired him. Prior to hiring Karl I had lost my 3 year old case with my HOA who had a civil judgment of over $12,000.00 against me, and a lien against my property. The HOA was also seeking garnishment of my earnings. Several othe...r law firms who reviewed the case recommended that I pay the judgment, or file bankruptcy. When Karl was done with the HOA, the garnishment was stopped, the lien lifted, and quite unbelievably Karl negotiated with the HOA who paid me $5,000.00! And yes, the judgment was no longer something I had to pay! Karl was honest with me, and his fees were very reasonable. Karl saved me, and my house, but more importantly he gave me peace of mind and restored my faith in the Judicial System. THANK YOU KARL!

Karl Pearson is the right person for the job

I have hired Karl multiple times for different tasks. Each time, he has provided outstanding, sensible, balanced, and prompt counsel. He reviewed thoroughly and explained all terms of transactions, contracts, and other documents in an accessible way. He was also readily available by phone and/or e...mail. His rates are reasonable. I'm not sure a client can ask for more in terms of competence, responsiveness, interpersonal ease, and professionalism. Karl has handled every task with aplomb. I will continue to call him whenever a legal issue arises and recommend him wholeheartedly.

Auto Accident -

Karl provided realistic expectations to my case and sought to get me the best settlement possible. He answered all of my questions and guided me through my case. He was a great help in a very stressful situation.

"I have known Karl since law school. He took his law studies seriously, and was someone who evaluated case law, rules and statutes, and competing positions objectively. He has taken that same approach in his practice of law. He is intelligent, prepared, and knowledgable. He brings objective, well-focused ideas to any discussion, and is typically able to add one to several points to any discussion. It would be my anticipation/prediction from my personal lawyer-to-lawyer experiences with him that his clients are well-served by an intelligent, prepared, thoughtful attorney."

He is excellent at explaining the particular legal process to the client in order to help them understand his or her options. I continue to regularly refer my own clients, family, and friends to Karl."
