A fighting voice for my special needs son

I highly recommend Whit Berch. Whit is an amazing attorney and I definitely would recommend him to my family and friends. Perhaps one of the many things that impressed me most about our attorney Whit Berch was that he allowed me to express myself about this case when needed. I never felt rushed o...ff the phone and my concerns were always heard. I felt like Whit treated us like people and not just another case. This was a personal injury case for my special needs child. This was extremely difficult and painful at times as his mother. Whit is a great lawyer, easy to work with, highly efficient and I felt was helpful with all my questions. He showed a high level of professionalism while treating my son case with the upmost respect. I felt confident and comfortable allowing Whit to represent us. Whit would respond within 24 hours and kept our family updated on the progress of case. I never felt like I didn’t know where we were at with the case. I feel like he was looking out for my son’s best interest and he earned my respect and trust. Definitely great customer service and professionalism. I truly felt like my son’s was in great hands. Thank you so much for everything. The wonderful settlement we received will help take care of my special needs son for years to come. I’m truly grateful for all that Whit did to help be the voice for my special needs son.

Thank you Whit!!!!

I was involved in a car accident with my husband. My son found Whit online. I’m glad he did cause the insurance company was trying to close/settle as quickly as possible. Having Whit there to help me and my husband every step of the way gave me peace of mind that we’ll be taking care of. And we were!...! Whit got me the maximum policy limit!!! When he told me I couldn’t believe it. But when he came down to see us (which he didn’t really have to) and gave me the check. I was amazed. And to top it off he wanted to take a picture with the three of us. When Whit left I just broke down because I never thought I would get the policy limit. The care and consideration that Whit gave us I will never forget. He is an outstanding attorney who treated me as if I was a really big client. I was hesitant because I thought that I would be treated like a file number and not a person. But Whit exceeded all my expectations. I would completely recommend Whit to anyone who has been in an accident. He would help you get through one of the worst moments in your life.

Thanks You Mr. Bertch!!!

Whit represented me for an injury I suffered when some shmuck knocked me off my motorcycle. My injuries were serious and consisted of a torn up knee and a bruised hand. It was my first time hiring a personal injury attorney and I was uncertain about the process. I was referred to Whit by friend. Thro...ughout the case, Whit did an excellent job at client communication, updates, explaining the legal process, and quickly resolving the case. My expectations were exceeded. Whit secured a settlement for me that was more than 20 times the insurance company’s initial offer and what I had expected going into this process. I would highly recommend Whit to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney.”

Very Professional

First I want to thank all the effort put into my case that changed my life, Whit and his team were always very professional, they listened with interest to my concerns and needs, they fought to achieve the best for me. The Bentley More team did an excellent job. I would recommend Whit to anyone in ne...ed of a great personal injury attorney.

Amazing and Professional

I had an injury back in 2016, and back in 2018, Mr. Bertch had helped me reach a settlement with the company. The amount of care that he has given me, and the professionalism that he presented were outstanding. Thanks to his help, I was able to start new, and boost my savings account. When I had n...o idea of what was going on during the whole process, Whit kindly explained every step. I highly recommend Mr. Bertch as an attorney, and if I ever have the misfortune of being in another accident, I already have the man who will help me in my time of need. Thank you Whit, i am very appreciated of all that you have done for me.
