Showing 1 - 1 of 1 review | Birth Injury

Posted by anonymous | May 09, 2014 | Birth Injury

I contacted Jan Mulligan on behalf of a family member to review a potential birth injury case.

I contacted Jan Mulligan on behalf of a family member to review a potential birth injury case. She responded very quickly. She and her colleagues then reviewed the documentary evidence, and she promptly provided a response. Although she did not accept the case, Jan took the time to explain in cons...iderable detail the weaknesses of the case and the reasons why they were not able to accept the case. No other lawyer has taken as much time to explain why they would not accept the case. Although Jan did not accept the case, I feel that if the case had been stronger, and, if Jan had accepted the case, she would have communicated promptly and very well with my family member throughout the case.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Jan and her partner Betsy Banham are the best medical malpractice team of lawyers in San Diego, with a great support staff. I have referred several medical malpractice cases to them, and they never fail to get great results. They are kind, compassionate and understanding toward their clients, yet they are a pair of tigresses when dealing with opponents. They have my highest recommendation."

"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.
