Review For Mulligan, Banham & Finley Law Firm

After taking a medication I was prescribed for 3.5 years, that I was only supposed to be on for 12 weeks, I was diagnosed with a neural muscular disorder called Tardive Dyskinesia. I found out that this disorder was not reversible. I looked on the internet for a top-rated law firm that took medi...cal malpractice cases. After being told I have no case by a few firms because of the warning label on the medication, I called Mulligan, Banham & Finley Law Firm, and they made an appointment for a consultation. They took the case, and it was the best call I could have made. They were very professional and did a lot of research on my disorder and spoke with many medical professionals about my case. They were not just interested in the case, they were also interested and cared about me as a person. They even told me about a new medication that was just approved for Tardive Dyskinesia that my doctor didn't know about. Knowing that if the medication worked that it could change the outcome of the case. I would drop into the firm from time to time without an appointment to follow up on my case, and Elizabeth Banham (Betsy) would always greet me with a hug, and would take the time to discuss the case with me. She drove with me up to Las Angles to see one of the top neurologist in the field. She also flew to San Francisco on the firms dine to depose a witness. When we went to the settlement conferences, two of the partners of the firm, Elizabeth Banham, and Brian Finley, went with me for representation. We settled out of court, and I was very pleased with the results. I would strongly recommend the firm of Mulligan, Banham & Finley to anyone that is looking for a medical malpractice attorney. They truly care about people and not just the money that many other firms were so concerned about, in case they lost. They stuck out their neck for me and it payed off in the end.

"Jan, and her partner, Betsy, are highly-skilled attorneys whom I have the privilege to call both colleague and friend. They represent each client with tenacity, ingenuity, and compassion, and their reputation as formidable adversaries is well-earned. Jan and Betsy are equally well known for their unyielding commitment to civility and professionalism, never sacrificing their integrity to the heat of battle.
