      Review Gregory Yates

      Solidly handled my father's injury case

      Posted by

      Mr. Yates and his dedicated staff handled my father's auto-pedestrian injury case promptly, with attention to detail, minimal expense, maximum recovery, and showing care to keep the family informed throughout. This made it easier for my father and the family as he recovered from his broken hip. Besides that, the people in the firm are just nice people.

      Among the best in the law business

I have been a client on several occasions The office and Mr. Yates handle my case/s with the upmost of professionalism and caring. His performances in court are well known and powerful. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Yates again to anyone needing a top lawyer.

      Personal Injury Case

      Posted by

      Mr. Yates was recommended to us by a friend when we were at our absolute nadir, Our son had been seriously injured in a motor accident. He, and his lovely wife, can to meet with us at the ICU and said he would do all he could to guide us through dealing with the insurance claim process. Despite the fact that our 20 year old son was left a permanent paraplegic the responsible driver was woefully underinsured with no other assets so there was minimal financial recovery despite Mr. Yates best efforts. Through the whole process he was concerned, informative, empathetic and explored every avenue to get whatever monetary remuneration for my boy. We are forever grateful for his tender concern for our situation. I'd like to add one of his assistants, Helen, was also very helpful, responsive and compassionate.

      Very Helpful

      I was a client in 2013. Car accident. Met with Mr. Yates and was very impressed by the way he handled my case. My case was settled within 5 months and I was very happy with the outcome. i believe that no other attorney would have handled it better than Mr. Yates. If you want an aggressive attorney that would be on top of your file then go with Mr. Yates.
