Testimonials

I was in the construction industry for 27 years with no accidents but one day I fell over 20 feet and broke both legs and ankle. I was getting workers' compensation that did not cover my expenses and I was getting behind on my house and other payments. To make matters worse, I was not getting medical treatment for some of my injuries. I went on line and found CCAA and hired Grant and Dean. They prosecuted my case and I ended up with a settlement close to 2 million dollars. During my case Grant and Dean kept me informed and were always available to me. They hired the best experts and got me to doctors who were able to get me on the road to recovery. I didn't have to pay anything.

I live outside the state of California. I fell and broke my neck due to a defective boot product. Grant explained the civil lawsuit process and the timing without any pressure to retain him. After I decided to hire him as my lawyer he filed the civil case in San Diego Superior Court. He prepared all of the paper work and discovery with minimal work by me. I was included in the depositions of corporate defendants and representatives and explained the importance of each. He prepared me for my deposition and defended me during questionning. Litigation costs and expenses were paid without any obligation or hassle by me. Good experts were retained. conducted extensive and expensive tests then gave helpful opinions that helped resolve the case. The best medical doctors were obtained to examine and opine on my medical future. Grant and Dean went through days of mediations and attempted to resolve the case before preparing for trial. The case was finally resolved after trial call for one million dollars. Due to their efforts I am able to work part time because of neck limitations.
