Highly recommend these wonderful attorneys & their quick to help assistants!

I made an appointment to talk to Eric Wollard about a family law issue and he was extremely unpleasant the entire conversation. He was hostile, impatient and condescending without even really knowing any of the details of what I needed. I’ve talked to many lawyers about our family law issue and every single one told us it was more than doable and were very understanding, informative and pleasant. But not This guy. Without even trying to ask for more real details He tried to inform me what we need to do isn’t possible, which I find hard to believe considering a least 6 other lawyers have told me otherwise. This man repeatedly questioned decisions we’ve already made regarding the past and acted as though we were stupid for it. At one point I didn’t fully understand what he said to me and I asked “I’m sorry could you say that again?” And he raised his voice to me just under what I would consider a yell. The call only lasted 7 minutes because of how rude he was I had to tell him I could already tell It wouldn’t work out and would not be proceeding with him. In a very unpleasant tone he said “great. Have a nice day.” The only reason I’m still calling around for lawyers is to make the best informed decision and find the right fit. Based off how rude and horrible this man was on our phone call I would never recommend him. I’ll definitely be going to one of the previous lawyers I’ve talked to.

The senior associate Katherine Karstetter allows her clients to violate laws and encourages them to file false government reports saying they have a right. Falsifying reports to the FBI, police, making calls to anyone who knows me and scouting USA is not okay trying to get me fired, and trying to stop my advocacy, training and support of disabled, low income, and children is not okay. Shame on you. Glad you defend people who have no defense. It is okay for your client to have my information my family's information our addresses, phone numbers, license plate numbers on sticky notes in her possession.You defend and believe pathological liers who report false felony accusations, who has a personality disorders when you know they are mentally ill. Shame on you.
Abusing and neglecting your child is not okay, and continuing to affect children's and others mental health, and physical health with inappropriate interactions is not okay. Your law firm should be about facts and the truth not defending blatant liers and allowing them to stalk and abuse people. But yes you are a shoulder to cry on that obviously does not have the mental capacity or morals to distinguish right from wrong. Shame on you....
You said I court anyone has a right to file complaints so here it is. You are a guardian ad lidium Shame on you, you do not protect anyone.

I'd like to thank my wonderful attorney Ms. Kate Karstetter for helping me through out this whole case. I have no complaints and only good things to say about her. She took good care of my case as promised and I could tell she really cared about what happened to me. Im beyond grateful because my case finally closed. Thank you for everything!. I will recommend you to anyone in need.

I would give zero stars if I could. I was supposed to be served with court papers and he emailed me an attachment with an unfinished report without the case number and no court room. It said if you can not make it to court you can attend through WebEx. He sent me to the wrong court room on the wrong county. I still have not been served papers probably. They will not return my calls or texts.

A cesspool of legal malpractice. I watched several parents go through agonizing ordeals despite ORPC being aware (and failing to intervene). Lots of embedded institutional bias, particularly towards Hispanic clients. In my opinion, ORPC needs a leadership change and more judicial scrutiny.

I was trying to get in contact with then for 4 weeks regarding my lawyer and I only got a response after leaving nasty voice-mail on their general mailbox. Once I got in contact with them they fairly quickly reached out to my lawyer and he became response after that so I do appreciate that. But then after I needed to speak with them again I've called 5 times and I'm still awaiting a call back. It's very frustrating.

Been waiting for Sean goodbody to settle my workman's comp claim for 2 years and eight months. Had told me that recently the claim was settled and I needed to fill out paperwork and return it to see my settlement. So I did. Then they told me that I needed to fill out more paperwork to get my money and still no settlement. It will be 3 years in February fighting this!

Disabled veteran and first time reviewer of anyone.
Stay away from this law firm.
If you read the low reviews on Google, you'll get the most accurate outlook on the work ethic of this lawyer.
I had a restraining order filed on me based on false claims. I had a police incident report practically proving the claims made were false and on my initial meeting, he was quick to say that he would subpoena the police officer that responded to the incident and that he would get the case dismissed. For this he wanted $1,500. As it was part of a divorce with no kids and complicated finances, he charged a total of $3,500 for both. I spoke with a half dozen law firms before going with his since the task was simple enough that even I myself could have done it but since I couldn't afford mistakes, I instead made the mistake of hiring this lawyer.
The day before the hearing I had to call him since he had not contacted me regarding the case or his process or anything at all. The reason was that he hadn't done anything- He walked in to the court room less than 5 minutes before the hearing began and asked me questions about the restraining order which I provided to him weeks before. Apparently he took the time to read it right before the hearing itself because instead of fulfilling his promise, he just asked for a continuance or postponement if you're unfamiliar (and billed me for his appearance). The next hearing went exactly the same way, except it was the other party that requested the continuance (and he billed me for his appearance). After I contacted him demanding he file the evidence I provided to him and ask what his plan was for the next hearing, his response was that he was "hoping the other party doesn't show up". He got his wish (and billed me for his appearance) and the case was dismissed without prejudice after him having done nothing and with a smile that implied a victory, said that even though it can be filed again, he would just take care of it then.
The next problem was the response to a divorce filing. His paralegal called me multiple times the day it was due, the last of which occurred after 4:00PM while she ironed out the details. The response was filed shortly after that and less than an hour from the deadline, which tells me he wouldn't even have time to proofread it. Although his staff is very diligent , friendly and competent, the opposite is all that can be said for this lawyer. In the first hearing dealing with jurisdiction of my divorce, he lost. For context, the other party represents themselves and is a person in their early 20s with zero college and legal training and that's who he lost to. (and he billed me for all of this)
I arranged a meeting in person after this to try to understand why all of this occurred the way it did. The first thing he did in the meeting is remind himself of who I was and my case (he never took the time to learn either of my cases), and after my first query that questioned his level of competence, he immediately offered to withdraw from my case. Having already made the decision to fire him, I pressed forward in the conversation asking him why he failed to get my restraining order case dismissed, to try to get reassurance that he wouldn't lose to court against this person a second time. Instead of providing any explanation, he just reiterated that he would withdraw from my case. I haven't been invoiced for this month yet but I have a feeling I was billed for that as well. The conversation took place over 8 minutes and what I have written here was all he said.
The ordeal I've just related cost me over $3,000. And due to his failure to withdraw from my case within a deadline, the opposing party is filing a complaint with the BAR. I am filing one of my own for obvious reasons.
I don't see any responses to either positive or negative reviews on google, so use that as reference to his method of addressing really just about anything.

Jason was phenomenal! He listened to my issue and provided cost-effective solutions for my debt. I must admit- It is very difficult to come face-to-face with debt; It hurts the ego and has left me with sleepless nights of worry and impending doom. Jason asked the right questions to drill down to my legal rights. He provided me with COMFORT and a plan of action!

I have relied on Dan for many legal issues (large and small) over the past 2 years. His advice has always been superb and he delivers it with kindness and compassion. He is extremely knowledgeable and always takes the time to explain things to me in a way that I understand. Most recently he helped me with a party wall issue, but in the past he also helped me file motions and develop effective legal strategies. He always responds in a timely manner to my calls and emails. I know I can rely on him for solid legal advice. Highly recommend !

We hired Jon to review all of the contracts and title relating to a purchase of some commercial real estate properties in Golden CO. Jon completed the entire review timely and interacted with the title company very professionally. After closing on the properties, we have subsequently hired Jon to draft and oversee the creation of a couple utility easements. Thank you Jon!

Jon Bradley helped me from the day I woke up from the medically induced coma to the day we closed my case. He helped me find a workmens comp lawyer. While I was waiting on the benefits to start from workmens comp Jon got some money from the at fault driver so I was able to pay my bills and settle all the leans I had on any other personal injury that was going to be awarded in the future. Jon Bradley and his team worked hard on going after my employers insurance. I had a long road to recovery and I was very happy I didn't have to worry about getting screwed by the insurance companies at every turn. Jon Bradley had my back or what was left of it and I couldn't image hiring another lawyer.

Terrible legal services. Literally charged me to PRINT paperwork, like that’s hard and time consuming. You can tell she doesn’t have children, and yet she’s practicing Family Law, with no clue what it takes to raise a child. If I could give a zero star rating, I would.

Maxted Law (David Maxted) made a traumatic and difficult legal experience regarding the wrongful death of a loved one, tolerable, supportive, and even healing. David's (and his team's) compassion, kindness, brilliance, and patience were of critical support to me in a very challenging time. He was always respectful and never pressured me as he presented legal options, weighed pros and cons and potential outcomes, and honored my needs and desires, as well as, my grief process. He took the time to know me and my situation, yet remained objective. His intelligence and competence were beyond what I could have hoped for and he was willing to "take on" agencies for justice that others were not-- WITH SUCCESS. I cannot recommend Maxted Law enough!

In 1994, David Lane, represented me against the Colorado Prison System for setting me up to be severely hurt. Recently while going through all the legal work from that case(93-n-2129), I discovered if not for David, I probably would have been set up to murdered by the corrupt guards & officials of that era. David fought for me behind the scenes like a pit bull. Thank you David! I'm humbled and grateful for what you did for me.

I hired Ms. Stout for a personal injury case. She made multiple promises but did not fulfill one promise. She finally responded to my emails and phone calls a few days before my case had to be filed. Then when it got down to filing the case she had me do that but it was a waist of my time. The way she explained why I had to file was because the fees to file a case had gotten so expensive. I then started receiving documents from the court that I did not understand. She would respond on how to do the documents from the court but I am not an attorney and did not understand most of what she told me to do. I have a traumatic brain injury - I do not read very well and my thought process has problems. Her stock answer was another attorney can jump in at anytime once the case is filed. I only received minimal advise on what to do once I filed my case with the court. Ms. Stout had no intention of being my attorney. I still do not understand why she took my case if she was going to do nothing. I said some nasty things to Ms. Stout about her and then she dropped me. In my opinion she just wanted an excuse to get rid of my case. I contacted her muliple times and probably heard back from her less than 10% of the time. She was always busy with anoter client. Possibly my case was to difficult for her or not enough money. She is a do nothing attorney. Think twice before you hire her.

Ms. Stout was very helpful to me in a very difficult situation. Her compassion and empathy were a great comfort to me throughout the mess my son and I were faced with.
My only complaint is that Ms. Stout was often very difficult to reach (I attribute this to what I'm sure must be a very heavy caseload).
Thank you, Stephanie.

The one thing I really appreciated from Dave was his constant, thoughtful advice all through my case. I fractured vertebrae in a nasty car crash and I couldn't believe how difficult the insurance company was to deal with. Dave was so chill through the whole thing and gave me advice that made a lot of sense and helped keep me calm. We had to file a lawsuit to show them we meant business, but we settled pretty quickly. Great job!

After I was injured by a texting driver who ran a red light, I was shocked at how horribly I was treated by his insurance company. I always thought that you didn't need a lawyer if you were really hurt. Boy was I wrong. They wouldn't even pay my medical bills! David was just so patient and understanding right from the beginning and he never gave up on me or my case. I don't know what I would have done without him.

Wife and I contacted Burton & Burton a couple weeks ago regarding the need to get our affairs in order. We had some special circumstances that needed to be considered in our Will with regards to a child with special health issues.
Rebecca spend a fair amount of time with us and helped us through the process. Two weeks later we had our Power of Attorney, Living Will, and Will all put together and completed. She sat with us for two hours going over each section in the documents in order to make sure we understood the purpose and need for each statement.
Overall, I'd recommend Burton & Burton to anyone needing good legal advice.

I was involved in an automobile accident in 2007 and was thrust into the legal system. The defense attorney decided to take my case to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals after losing at trial. Mr. Hemmat had the greatest belief in his team to task them with appearing before this court. Jason never once trivialized my concerns or questions. I have the utmost respect for Jason and I would not hesitate one bit in recommending him to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney. In fact, I would recommend anyone to the Anderson Hemmat McQuinn law firm. I have been treated with nothing but respect and concern for my well being and the well being of my case.

I was hurt at work and I took my case to a different law firm which held on to it for almost two years. That is three weeks before the statute of limitations was to run out. This other law firm sent me a letter letting me know that they didn't think that this was a big enough case for them to make enough money on. The letter also said I could file for extended time on the case at my county court house. Well not knowing anything about the law and not having the money to file I started to look for a new firm. I called Anderson Hemmat & McQuinn. I was lucky enough to talk to Jason Alleman we set up a time and went to see him. He told us right up front we did not have a lot of time to get this thing going. He ask the name of the company and to our surprise there were several with the same name. He said I will send them all a letter just to make sure we get the right one. To make a long story short Jason was very professional and honest. He told me everything that was going on and we got no surprises. Every time I called if he didn't have an answer he would find it out for me (and I called a lot). He never made me feel like I was bothering him and was always very pleasant. He made me feel like he cared about what happen to me and wanted to help. Not only did Jason help me but I also received letters from Chad Hemmat explaining what was going on. Kim my legal assistant was also very helpful. She was right on top of the case with information whenever I would call she was the most pleasant person to talk to! I feel that Anderson Hemmat & McQuinn would be the place I would go for any personal injury legal advice and would recommend this firm to all my friends and family. Jason once again thank you and the firm so much for all your help. I felt you were very professional, honest and a very caring person. Too bad for the other law firm that said it was too small of a case. We did great!!!

After me and my fiancé were struck by a distracted driver, we were both rushed to the ER at Denver Health. My fiancées injuries were more serious than my injuries, she had to have immediate spinal surgery where here C5 had to be removed and replaced with a metal bracket. I recieved a hedial fracture in my elbow. I called Anderson Hemmat & McQuinns law office in seek of legal representation. They than put Jason Alleman on the phone to speak with me. I explained our situation with the accident and our injuries that we occurred and he sounded so concerned about our well being and how unfortunate our situation was , etc. Long story short, I signed his contract and I hired Jason Alleman thinking I was hiring Anderson Hemmat himself, which was the first lie told to me by Jason. Than I myself did 90% of my own research about the other driver, his insurance, the police report, all information from everyone involved in the accident, etc. Which I than gave to Jason and his law office, (Anderson Hemmat & McQuinn) where I was insured that they would take care of me and represent me with the upmost professionalism and respect that I deserve, that was the second lie told to me! I continued to try and contact Jason about my case, he pushed me off to some paralegal student who worked for the law office, she was absolutely no help what so ever, probably because she was on her way out of that company. After weeks of no replys to phone calls and emails I recieved a letter stating that Jason Alleman and his law office will no longer be representing me in this case and that my situation did not meet there criteria, I believe those were the exact words used, to represent someone like me!!! What!? Yea I know right! Not only that, there was a $386.52 bill attached to the letter stating that they were dropping me as a client!! Not once did Jason Alleman have to dignity or common decency to contact me and let me know that due to the other drivers lack of coverage. I had to find out through this letter! It simply was not enough money for this greedy law office, therefore they dropped me!! Again... Run don't walk!!!

I have known Eric before he became an attorney and I consider him a great friend and respect him as a lawyer. I have used him as a personal lawyer and I don't think I could find one better. As for as I'm concern he out performed one of the most expensive lawyers in the country. You will never go wrong by using Eric.

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.
Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.
When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:
- Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
- Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
- Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
- Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
- Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
- Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:
- Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
- Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
- Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
- File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
- Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
- Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.
How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
- Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
- No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.
Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:
- Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
- Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.
While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.
Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer
Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
How long will my case take?
While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.
How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
- Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
- Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
- Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:
- Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
- Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
- Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
- Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
- Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.
By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
