Posted by Maxine | October 10, 2013 | Car Accidents

Superb Injury Lawyer

Although known to me personally, Randy still handled my case in a very professional and efficient manner. I was involved in a bad car accident when the other driver ran a red light. Randy carefully explained the whole process and options for filing a claim. The efficiency of Randy and his staff resu...lted in my case being settled in a very timely manner, without the need to go to court and for much more than I expected. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone.

Posted by anonymous | September 26, 2013 | Personal Injury

The best personal injury lawyer in North San Diego County

After being involved in a not-at-fault car accident in which I sustained severe bodily injury, I was recommended by a friend to visit Randy to submit an injury claim. I called Randy and he was able to meet with me the same day. I felt like I was in good hands from the second I walked into his offi...ce in San Marcos, CA. Randy explained in detail the processes involved in submitting an injury claim, what to expect, and an estimate on the duration and payout of the claim. Randy's professionalism and responsiveness were nothing short of superb; he kept me informed every step of the way and was always available to answer the phone with any questions I had. I'd highly recommend Randy to anyone (and already have) seeking advice with a personal injury claim. I will certainly take advantage of his services in the future should the situation arise.

Posted by Margaret | December 07, 2009 | Life Insurance

Randy Walton was enormously helpful during a very difficult time

Just before my husband’s term life insurance was set to expire, he made arrangements to purchase new insurance from a different company. We had four children, and he wanted to make sure they were covered. He contacted a life insurance broker who walked him through the application process and told h...im would be insured throughout the underwriting process. Based on those representations, my husband let his term policy expire. Before the new policy was issued, my husband died of an unforeseen heart attack. When I made a claim on the policy, it was denied because, I was told, my husband did not have any temporary coverage, despite being told so by the broker. As a newly widowed woman with four young children, the denial of the claim turned my already difficult life completely upside down. I consulted with Randy Walton, who, after looking at the documentation, agreed to take my case. Throughout the litigation process, which included both state and federal court, Randy kept me informed and up to date and consulted with me on every major decision. After more than a year of litigation, we obtained a settlement for more than the underlying insurance policy.

Randy helped us during a difficult time

My mother and I hired Randy after my father died under terrible circumstances. He had been in a nursing home for a short period of time, but was neglected by the staff, and he had to be hospitalized because of severe dehydration and numerous bed sores. The hospital wasn’t much better, and the bed so...res got worse. My father died a few weeks later. Randy investigated the case, and ended up filing a lawsuit on our behalf. He kept us informed throughout the case, and would always promptly return my telephone calls or emails. I am happy to say that after many months, we received a substantial settlement. My mother and I would definitely recommend Randy as a lawyer.

Posted by Bill | September 22, 2009 | Lawsuits & Disputes

Very personal and caring about his clients.

I was involved in an auto accident where I was not at fault. In contacting Randy I explained to him what happened and he took over from there. I was not in this to get rich, but I did want to make sure that I got what was fair and reasonable. Randy was great with checking on me and my progress as I w...as being treated by my doctor and physical therapists. Never once did Randy pressure me in any way to settle until I was feeling as close to 100% as possible. To make a long story short, there is no doubt in my mind that I would contact Randy again if I was in the need for a great lawyer. He is certainly someone that other lawyers should measure themselves against. Thanks Randy!
