Great Experience

My recent experience at Rockafellow Law firm was excellent. Through his efforts, Leighton Jr. made what might have been an otherwise difficult process very easy. He and his assistant, Jenny Schultz, were always available to answer all questions and concerns, and everything was handled very profession...ally. Because of Leighton's thoroughness and legal expertise my case was settled very satisfactorily. The entire staff was always welcoming and I would highly recommend this law firm.

Two Cases Settled Successfully

Leighton Jr. represented me successfully in two separate motor vehicle cases wherein I was the person injured and not at fault. His firm, where he practices with his father and is family owned has a kind compassion staff. Cheryl his assistant, and Carl the NP / Paralegal, have been there for me, as ...has Leighton Jr. through the process on both cases. All have been available to answer questions and go through processes during each stage of my case. I would and have recommended Leighton to friends and family.

Excellent Lawyer

Our experience with the Rockafellow Law Firm was excellent. We walked in with a case, unsure if any lawyer would think it was worth their time. We walked out of Leighton Jr.'s office that day with the knowledge this lawyer believed in our case. It lasted over two years but our case ended with a very ...satisfactory settlement. Through all the legal challenges Leighton kept us informed, advised and encouraged. We are appreciative of his legal skill and his compassion.

Extremely competent and caring!

I never expected to have to file a lawsuit against anyone, let alone a large corporation. Leighton Rockafellow Jr. took all the legal concerns off my mind; all. Had to do was heal and complete physical/occupational therapy. Leighton Jr. Kept me informed at every step, but never made me feel pressured... in any way. To the contrary, his empathy and caring allowed me to focus on my health while he handled the case. His expert advice allowed me to make decisions wisely, yet with minimal stress or concern. I knew I was in good hands, and I would get a fair settlement, neither obscenely greedy nor rollover pushover. The settlement he did get me was much more than I expected, plus he saved me thousands in medical leans through his negotiations. What a pleasant surprise!
