Kristen West McCall

This review is specifically about attorney Kristen West McCall at the firm. As with many people, I have a love-hate relationship with attorneys and a definitely diverse view of the attorneys I have dealt with over the years; far more negative comments than positive as a rule. So it gives me singular ...pleasure to provide a very positive and laudatory review for Kristen. She is very good at her job; tenacious, innovative and thorough. I would not like to be on the opposing side when she represents you. She is also very much your advocate. Now that may seem obvious, but many attorneys consider you nothing more than a source to bill. I can earnestly say that is NOT the case here. Before there is even a conversation about money, she listens to the facts of the case, provides guidance and will be upfront as to whether she thinks it should be pursued. She is flexible and reasonable; two words that do NOT automatically apply to many counselors. She is proactive, answers her phone (or calls you back in a timely fashion if she is otherwise engaged) and most importantly, adds a large measure of common sense to her legal expertise. If you have occasion for a personal injury attorney, make sure Kristen McCall is on your short list. Incidentally, you will note on this site that my engagement with her was for a consultation. She was not hired (though she certainly would have been) because she explained after a thorough examination, that the case, which would be on contingency, would not lead to a positive outcome. She mentioned I could hire her to pursue it on an hourly fee basis, but discouraged me from doing so. An attorney who gave me real, honest advice that had nothing to do with "making a sale"....that's the attorney I want working for me

From our first meeting I was impressed with Kristen’s interest in learning about me as potential client. Her confident nature combined with her ability to be empathetic brought the balance I needed to face an uncomfortable legal process. I value her extensive legal knowledge, professionalism and tena...cious attitude. I am appreciative for her dedication to my case and highly recommend Kristen West McCall to anyone seeking a personal injury lawyer!

I contacted Kristen some weeks after being run down off my bike by a pickup truck. The truck driver's insurance company was arguing with me over helmet replacement and bike repair costs, so it was pretty clear to me that they weren't going to want to compensate me beyond the minimum required medical ...bills if they could help it. I had ptsd symptoms from the crash. I had multiple injuries, one of which ended up needing major surgery a year after the accident, with a year-long recovery from that. For many months over the years following the crash, I couldn't drive my own truck, keep house or garden, or do most of the things that make my life enjoyable. Between PT, appointments, and just not being able to do things, I lost thousands of hours from my normal life. Throughout all of the ups and downs, Kristen helped me stay focused on getting better as quickly and as well as I could, while she managed the insurance and legal aspects. She helped me bring a suit against the insurance company to get compensation for my losses. I feel that she represented me as well as anyone could have and I'm completely satisfied with the outcome. I hope I never need legal counsel again, but if I do, I'll go straight to Kristen.
