Mr. Bertch repsented me in my auto accident case. He was super responsive and communicative. He answered all of my questions either through phone calls, texts or emails. He got me the best settlement possible and represented me to the fullest to my debtors. I will recommend him to all my family and ...friends.

Fantastic experience

Mr. Bertch represented me after I was in a bad car accident and suffered injuries to my neck and back. Mr. Bertch's expertise and services were invaluable throughout the process of dealing with the defendant, his insurance company and my own insurance company. Without Mr. Bertch I cannot imagine havi...ng gone through this long process on my own or received the compensation I ended up obtaining due to the gross negligence of the defendant in my accident. I cannot thank Mr. Bertch enough for his assistance throughout this endeavor; his professionalism, constant follow-up and attention to even the smallest details were some of the best I have ever experienced. Thank you Mr. Bertch, you are a credit to your profession and I wish you well in your undoubtedly bright future as an attorney.

Professional, Compassionate, Tough

Bentley & More took over the litigation aspect of my husband’s motor vehicle collision case when Mercury Insurance declined to settle this clear liability case. My husband was declared permanently and totally disabled and unable to return to his construction job, yet the insurer failed and refused, ...for more than three years, to make any sort of reasonable settlement offer. The matter was finally set for trial in August 2021, Mr. Bertch finally negotiated a policy limits settlement and my husband and I are relieved and grateful for his skills and tenacity. I cannot say enough about his handling of my husband’s case. Mr. Bertch kept in communication with us each step of the way, explaining clearly and concisely the status of our claim and setting forth “what-if” scenarios so we had no surprises. Highly recommend Mr, Bertch and Bentley & More for resolution of personal injuty claims!

Excellent customer service

“Whit represented me for a dog attack injury. My injuries were serious and consisted with several hand surgeries. It was my first time hiring a personal injury attorney and I was skeptical and uncertain about the process. I was referred to Whit by my Sales Manager. Throughout the case, Whit did an ex...cellent job at communicating with me and explaining the process. He would give me updates and explaining the legal process. He was effective in resolving the case. My expectations were exceeded. Whit secured a settlement for me that was maximum coverage from the insurance company and what I had expected going into this process. I would highly recommend Whit to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney.
