car accident

I was driving with my family in downtown San Diego, when we were hit by a driver who ran a red light. My husband and son suffered minor injuries, but I was hurt worse, and ultimately needed surgery. I had a history of neck problems, but in the days after the accident my problems got very bad so I dec...ided to call a lawyer. Since I live in North County, I wanted a local lawyer and found Walton Law Firm. I can't tell you how happy I was with the way my case handled. Randy Walton and Sarah Earnest guided me and my family through the process, made sure all my medical bills were paid, and got a good settlement for all of us .I would definitely use this law firm again, and would recommend them to my friends and family. Thank You

On Duty Police Vehicle Collision

On November 23, 2014, I was involved in an on duty police vehicle collision. I was hit by an uninsured motorist driving a rental car. My work took care of all my medical bills but there was no policy for pain and suffering. I suffered a fractured back, lost 7 teeth and was concussed. I suffer lon...g term damage in all of the areas. With no insurance company for the driver I was given 15,000 from the rental car company which all went to my work. I asked around and everyone told me I had no avenue to turn to. I knew I had uninsured personal vehicle insurance but everyone told me they wouldn't cover me. I called Randy Walton and I remember being very nervous, I had never been involved in a personal injury lawsuit. I will be honest I had my doubts about the "Ambulance Chaser" persona. Randy was none of that. His office was open and clean, he was so laid back and professional. His staff was nice. Nothing I had imagined. I asked Randy that day if I had a case and his answer was, "Let me call around and look into it". Right then I could tell he had no big ego, he was willing to check with his colleagues. This meant a lot to me knowing he was willing to do research on something he had not quit seen. To settle a personal injury case involved with a work comp case you had to wait until all medical and therapy was done and your work comp case was closed. Randy checked in on me through the months and made sure I was doing well. When my work comp case was finally settled Randy dug in and found everything on the books about my own personal insurance used for driving a work car. My insurance company agreed with Randy and paid out my policy. I cant thank Randy enough for his professionalism, his kindness through my very rough days, and always returning my emails and phone calls within hours. Randy is hands on with your case, not some assistant or paralegal. This was my first experience with a personal injury lawyer but I have heard of nightmare stories. Randy made a terrible time in my life calm and manageable. I would refer Randy to family, friends and anyone needing help.

Car Accident Client Review

Attorney Randy Walton and paralegal Sarah Ernest were an incredible help! They were both supportive and fair when guiding me through my case. I always felt support from the both of them. I've heard about ugly cases, especially from lawyers who are either dishonest or incredibly rude to their clients.... Luckily I never received ill treatment from either of these exceptional individuals and never had a bad experience with them. They know their stuff thoroughly and I had an easy time resolving my case thanks to them. I highly encourage anyone in the area to either get a consultation or hire Mr. Walton for whatever you're considering a lawyer for in what he covers because he'll truly help you as he is passionate, dedicated and hard working, as is Ms. Ernest!

Best personal injury lawyer

I work for a large telecommunications company and got in a bad accident while I was driving the company truck. The accident wasn't my fault. After the accident, my shoulder needed surgery and I missed a lot of work. Workers compensation insurance took care of my medical bills and some of my lost inc...ome, but it was recommended to me to consult a lawyer to see if I had a case against the person who hit me. I called Walton Law Firm and am really glad I did. Mr. Walton was easy to work with, and took care of everything. Even though the driver who hit me didn't have a lot of insurance, Mr. Walton was able to collect all the available insurance, and then get my medical lien reduced to the point where I was able to walk away from the case with a decent settlement. I would definitely recommend this law firm.

Walton Law Firm Came To Feel Like Family

I am so grateful that we hired Randy Walton after our major accident. Walton Law Firm wasn't a big machine...it definitely felt we were not going to fall through the cracks or get lost or forgotten. Everything was so well taken care of. To have those medical bills just rolling in, and being so damage...d physically and emotionally as we were at the time, to just be able to stick them in the scanner and send it to you the firm was such a blessing. Plus, I always felt better after Randy came and talked to us. Everything that Randy explained to us that could and would happen...happened. We could not have asked for things to be handled in a better way.
