Sean is the best trial lawyer bar none. We were under tremendous stress when our first house was wrecked by a number of contractors. When we contacted Sean, he stopped by our house and immediately put us at ease. In Sean we found a very skilled attorney who helped us strategize our case in the most cost effective and efficient manner. He will always try to settle matters amicably but will not hesitate to roll up his sleeves in court if needed. Having worked with him for an extended period, it has been our observation that he has a genuine desire to help other people, has a high level of personal integrity and exhibits a great degree of humility. He's calm, very thorough, and has always been exceptional at communication; responding to our every question promptly and professionally. He further distinguishes himself from his peers by naturally being empathetic with his clients - he's a great listener and he's able to instinctively put himself in other's shoes to build a profound sense of trust. Thank you Sean for always being there for us and being somebody we can rely on!

While we were unable to hire Mr. Roche due to time constraints, he devoted his time and energy to review, advise, and assist us. His retainer fees were more than reasonable and we highly recommend Mr. Roche to anyone in need of legal assistance within his field of practice. He is open-minded and actively seeks solutions to issues that are novel or complex. We look forward to working with Mr. Roche and his firm as a possible general counsel for business affairs. You will not be dissatisfied with his attentive services.

My partner and I had the chance to be represented by Sean in a case regarding a breach of contract. First, he did not charge us a dime when we consulted with him and discussed the case several times to figure all other options before he took on the case. He represented us with honesty and a very high level of professionalism. I found him to be very personable and willing to answer any questions we may have had throughout the process. His expert knowledge and efficient work style secured a judgment in our favor. I highly recommend Sean Roach as your attorney.

Lara Herrmann is top notch and has earned my highest recommendation. She handled my case with such ease, and I was able to get the medical care that I needed. She can be very hands on, or in my case, I preferred to do everything over the phone and electronically. They were amazing, so on top of it and not once did I have to follow up with them to check on where they were at in the process. She will relieve you from many, many headaches and provide the advice you are seeking. I have already referred them two cases, and I plan to continue to send close friends and family their way.

I hired Jim McKanna based on the strong recommendation of a close colleague whom had worked with him in the past. I was arrested for a DUI and was terrified to say the least; Jim immediately helped alleviate those fears. Jim was professional and prepared and he was able to answer all of my questions with a confidence earned from years of legal practice and experience. After a few phone calls to the courthouse Jim was able to outline a legal strategy and time-line that would ensure the most favorable possible outcome considering the facts of my case. Jim was with me throughout the entire process, he made himself available at all times to answer questions and to simply put me at ease. Jim was very reasonable and fair with his pricing, but more importantly Jim gave me peace of mind and the confidence to move forward with the legal process. Jim was non-judgmental, tenacious, professional and kind; he helped me to navigate a very difficult time in my life. I give Mr. McKanna the highest of praise and recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of legal counsel.

I give James McKanna my highest personal recommendation. He is an attorney of high character, diligence and skill . I had a slip and fall personal injury matter which was approaching the statute of limitations. I asked Mr. McKanna to review my file to see if I had a case. He immediately went into action, filed a lawsuit and quickly obtained my medical records. Jim was able to negotiate a very good settlement within 3 months of the lawsuit being filed. which I attribute to his high level advocacy and interpersonal demeanor. I would highly recommend Mr. McKanna for any personal injury matter. Future clients will not be disappointed.

Tim Lessing is the epitome of preparation and precision in all that he has accomplished in his multi-faceted legal career. I've know him for many years as a fellow attorney, and as an individual who has used him as a Facilitator to resolve cases big and small. From his days of being a court clerk, to his advocacy for his clients as an associate attorney, and even now in utilizing his analytical skills as a facilitator and in the courtroom, Tim Lessing is an attorney with the skills that many others will attempt to hone throughout their entire career, but all of which Tim has at his disposal now, as he zealously advocates for his clients, and ardently pursues a resolution when he is serving as a facilitator. I've personally used Tim to resolve tough, tough cases and I can unabashedly tell you the case would not have have resolved in his absence - his critical thinking and ability to think outside the box was indispensable.

Throughout the process Mary Jo was very communicative and responded promptly to all of our questions and inquiries. She used her time well and minimized her overall fees and cost. Being in a position where you need to enlist the help of a lawyer is never a good thing but Mary Jo helped make the process as painless as possible, and she provided us with the valuable service we so desperately needed.

He Is HONEST and that cannot be said for the majority of attorneys I have known and used. Over the past few years I have told him on numerous occasions he is more of a friend than my attorney, although he is my great attorney. I would not hesitate hiring Jason for one second. Jason goes "Above and Beyond" in his legal representation. Both of his parents are attorneys and has a wealth of information on the law, friends in high places to consult with and can speak to "the common man" just like a "common man", but Jason is far from common. I cannot say enough GREAT Things about Jason. Hire him and you will see for yourself.

Brandon McKenzie more than lives up to his reputation as the “Airbnb lawyer.” He and his firm have helped me navigate complex real estate matters and Airbnb regulations and legislation. Our association hired Brandon as a lobbyist, and he was successful in lobbying for the defeat of an ill-conceived bill that would have outlawed or unreasonably restricted short-term rentals. Legislators have since adopted a considerable amount of the language he drafted in a competing bill, so we are now much closer to a common sense piece of legislation that will serve the interest of all stakeholders involved.

He was persistent in contacting Vivint and kept me apprised of the developments every step of the way. In the end, he was successful in cancelling the policy and I’m greatly appreciative for his help. I would recommend Benjamin without hesitation.

I Saira Mohammed was referred to Frank Trief September 2010. I was driving going home from the movies with my two sons Aidan (5yrs) & Adam (3yrs) in my 2009 Honda Odyssey. I was driving 20mph to 25mph between 12:30 to 1am that Saturday night into Sunday morning when i was t -bone at a right away green light intersection, which i had the green lights. The other vehicle which was an Audi was going 70mph t-bone me on to the traffic lights completely removing it and into the front of a residents house. my sons was dramatized, thank god they were seat belted properly. I was the only one sustained most of the injuries, i suffered a slip disc to my spine, torn ligaments to my left knee, pinch nerve to my upper neck and my left elbow. my sons was checked out at the emergency in good health, thank God. I made an appointment to go for consultation at Frank Trief and without any hesitation he was hired before the meeting was over. Frank Trief discussed every single little detail about what was going to be done and what were the steps to move forward with my case. All i submitted to him was photos, details of the accident how it happened and my insurance company which was Geico and still is. He referred me to highly recognized doctors and medical facilities that was trained to handle my situation and claims. He was very on point, professional and informative in every aspect of my case. He advised me to make sure and go to my therapy appointments, get all my X-rays and if needed surgery be sure to get it done. He told me that all my results will be forward to him and that will make our case stronger and will lead in the right direction. I never one day went to court when i was served documents from the other party, I emailed or faxed everyone as I received it to Frank and he told me not to worry everything is going accordingly. I placed my trust, confidence without any sort of hesitation. He made that part of my life stress free and with confidence I was able to continue my life with my sons and Frank dealt with all my legal problems without any complains and hassle to worry about. We won the case and i was very much satisfied and was compensated for my injuries. I will highly recommend Frank Trief because of his expertise, professionalism, and direct approach to every needed situation. God forbid a situation to happen to me in the future Frank Trief is just a phone call away, email or text message. My best regards to him on coming back to do what he's an excellent attorney.

Last year I started my private practice as a Naturopathic Physician. I felt incredibly overwhelmed by the legal side of setting up a medical practice. Max assisted me throughout this process, and I don’t know what I would have done without his guidance. He taught me what I didn’t know I needed to know in order to set up a successful practice. Max helped me write my consent forms and financial agreements, ensuring they clearly defined my role and the limitations of my scope as a licensed provider. Max is quick to respond to my questions and spends time not only researching the topics that arise, but takes the time to explain confusing concepts so that I feel more empowered in my choices.

I had the honor and pleasure of using John Allen Chalk as a lawyer when I went into the oil business in the early 1980's and then from 2000 through 2007 I practiced with him as one of his law partners. There is no lawyer with more integrity than John Allen. We tried complex cases together in civil courts , arbitrated complex commercial cases and mediated cases together. He was a mentor and leader in our law firm to every lawyer, especially the trial lawyers. He has earned the highest respect and trust of the Judges in Ft. Worth and has been appointed by them to serve as a receiver in some of the most difficult fiduciary roles a lawyer can be asked to perform. I quit the active practice of law and returned to the oil and gas industry in October of 2007 to start several oil and gas related entities. I have used and continue to use John Allen regarding a myriad of commercial contracts, including disputes and employment issues and contracts. I and other lawyers have the utmost trust and confidence in and use John Allen Chalk as our lawyer. He is the lawyer's lawyer!

On the first day I met Richard, I immediately liked him. I found him professional and courteous and very knowledgeable. But what really sold me was that he puts the needs of his clients first. He was always available when I called him, and consistently got back to me about any questions or issues I had. He is proactive and is capable of making the best decision on my behalf. His is solution oriented and makes you think about all your options before coming to an conclusion. I highly recommend his services .

I am very happy I meet Richard; Richard is not just my attorney but he is a friend now too.

I was injured as a result of an auto accident and had a difficult time finding an attorney who was willing to defend my case in Cobb County. Attorney Storrs took on the challenge and was successful in obtaining a settlement without having to try the case in court. He is dligent and fought very hard for me. I am more than satisfied and will not hestitate to use his services if needed in the future.
