Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

Andrew and team were great to work on. They took on a class-action case that grew in size and complexity…they stayed on top of things and won! They represented us very well and communicated back to us at all major milestones. Highly recommend Andrew and his team!

Courtney Dusseau

I cannot say enough good about this law firm. Andy made us feel like family. He was there at our side every moment. Never did we feel like a client. He fought for us as if we were his own family. I don’t know what I would have done without him. He is not just a great lawyer. He is a good man. I would definitely go to him again. I just pray I never have to need him ever again but if I do I will be confident he will get the job done.

Love Light

Everyone is so nice. They are very efficient and actually care about their clients.

Mary Johnson

Andy represented me in a class action lawsuit and thanks to his relentlessness and aggressive action I was able to recover almost 100% of the money I had lost. Highly recommend this firm!

Nick Nichols

Andy is always helpful, available, and thoughtful in sharing his legal expertise. I fully trust his legal judgment and would highly recommend him and his firm.
