Blaine E. Cartlidge

Blaine recently assisted my wife and I on an vehicle accident settlement. As most normal, college educated individuals, we were totally in the dark regarding how large insurance companies manage this process. While at a stop light, and in the turning lane, our vehicle was hit from behind by another... vehicle going at an excessive rate of speed. When Blaine took over, he realized it was more than just a "basic settlement". He brought the process to a satisfactory conclusion. He also kept us informed on a regular basis regarding progress.

Blaine did a wonderful job for us with our Estate Planning. He helped make what can be a very dry and tedious process, into an much more easy to understand family planning tool. Blaine was always available for questions and was extremely timely with his responses and completed work. I would gladly ... recommend Blaine and I would use his services again should the need arise.

Blaine has demonstrated the breadth and depth of his abilities as my attorney for several decades. From small corporate matters to contracts and negotiations, residential and commercial real estate, landlord-tenant, a revocable trust and powers of attorney, asset preservation, and lawsuits for and ag...ainst me and my businesses, Blaine proved over and again his competency, dedication and responsiveness. There's not one thing I would not take to Blaine for legal and tactical advice. He makes me feel like mine is the only case that is important to him and works diligently until it is complete.

Blaine has been my lawyer for 3+ years, during which time he has worked on numerous business contracts and governmental cooperative agreements. He is an extremely thorough advocate who works diligently on his client's behalf. He has a great depth of knowledge in civil law and, when needed, will seek ...out new information and come up to speed quickly - e.g., he quickly learned software as a service and cloud computing for software contracts he was working on for me. He is a quiet but strong negotiator and got the end game done for me. Blaine is extremely responsive and is able to juggle multiple cases and clients such that each one feels supported and important. I know he had many other cases when I was his client, but he always met deadlines and kept me appropriately updated. I highly recommend him.

After my husband and I had our first child, we consulted Blaine to help us secure his future. He was very patient amd helpful in guiding us through the estate planning process, which had so mamy options that it would've been an overwhelming experience without some help. He wasn't pushy at all, but li...stened to our needs and encouraged us make decisions that were best for our family. Blaine was always a quick email or phone call away and very prompt in getting back to us. We'll be retaining him for all our future attorney needs.
