Craig and I opposed each other on several case in 2006 and 2007. I was impressed with Craig's desire and ability to negotiate settlements without the adversarial attitude so often seen with seasoned attorneys. Having been business partners with him now for over 7 years I have seen him settle literally hundreds of cases to the satisfaction of our clients.

I endorse this lawyer. Craig Van Thiel is an excellent attorney. I mediated a difficult high conflict divorce case wherein he was an attorney and I was a neutral mediator. I was so impressed with Craig's patience with his client and his ability to relate very complex legal issues in an way that was expressible to his client. I found him at all times to be a strong advocate, a knowledgeable negotiator, and an ethical professional. I would be delighted to work with him again.
