"Craig Kidwell and I have worked on a few cases together over the years in the field of NV Workers Compensation. He is highly skilled, and hands down the most knowledgeable claimant's work comp attorney in Northern Nevada. His skill is beyond exceptional when dealing with issues that are more regularly confronted by northern Nevadans; particularly those work comp issues faced by injured miners, farmers, and ranchers. I highly endorse Craig."
"Mr. Kidwell has been practicing worker's compensation for many years. He is well-versed in the laws and regulations and is a great advocate for his clients and their rights. I strongly recommend his retention if you are an injured worker in Elko, Nevada."
