"I have worked with or for Roy Dwyer for the past 11 years. He is the most ethical, hard working, straight, no nonsense, tough, and diligent lawyer I know. He brings many years of experience and life lessons to our practice. While I am the head of our litigation department, I often consult with Roy for his sage advise, as he has nearly 50 years of litigation experience. I recall our first trial together several years ago. I think he was harder on me than anyone else in the courtroom, but it was for a good reason: he wanted to drive home the point that we must be meticulous, precise, and zealous on behalf of our clients to truly do justice by them. The point was also made to the jury - they awarded one of the largest civil jury verdicts that county had seen in several years. I will carry with me that lesson throughout the remainder of my practice. I am proud to be Roy's law partner, and only hope to carry the torch as bright as he once he is retired. He is truly an inspiration."
