I was in a dire situation and, as a grown man even was scared enough to shed a few tears. I had all but given up when Trey truly believed in me. He said several times "Michael you will be just fine". You know what...he WAS right. If a person is looking for a lawyer who is honest, caring and will go the distance, Trey Pettlon is the lawyer for you.

Earlier this year I was arrested for a crime I did not commit. I was facing a long time in prison if I was convicted. We had a jury trial and the jury found me “not guilty” thanks to Trey. He did a perfect job. He spent a lot of time and effort into building everything up to help me out. There wasn’t a single mistake or flaw in anything he did in and out of the courtroom.

Trey is an excellent attorney. My husband was facing a felony charge for a non-violent marijuana related crime with a possible prison sentence of eight years. Trey was able to negotiate an interstate compact deal for probation. He is well respected by judges and district attorneys. He cares about his clients. He made us feel confident throughout this anxious process and to be quite honest saved our family. Can’t recommend him enough.

I really appreciate Kevin taking the time to give me a call and talk me through an issue I had with an insurance claim. It’s not his responsibility to explain things others would not; he gave me advice on how I could move forward. I felt like he was very knowledgeable on the matter, didn’t make me feel less than for not knowing the process. Thank you Kevin and Lynne!

I recently had the privilege of working with Dustin Van Dyk at Palmer Law Group on my malpractice case, and I can’t express enough how grateful I am for his expertise and support throughout the entire process.
Dustin demonstrated a deep understanding of the complexities involved in my case. He took the time to listen to my concerns and made me feel valued as a client, and as a person. His professionalism and dedication were evident at every step, and he always kept me proactively informed about the progress of my case.
Dustin's knowledge of the law is impressive, and he has a genuine compassion for his clients. He not only fought diligently for my rights but also provided emotional support during a challenging time. I felt like I had someone in my corner who truly cared about my well-being.
Thanks to Dustin's hard work and commitment, I received the outcome I was hoping for. I can't recommend him and Palmer Law Group highly enough. If you’re seeking a compassionate and skilled attorney, look no further than Dustin Van Dyk. Thank you, Dustin and team, for everything you’ve done for me!

I highly recommend Lauren Fields as a divorce attorney. She is detail oriented, timely in her responses, very thorough and dedicated to helping build a case and an amazing advocate for her clients! She would stay calm, patient and objective, when I was struggling to do so and helped me fight for what I deserved. No one expects or plans on divorce but if you find yourself in that situation, you want Lauren on your team!

I had some things come up and wanted to hire someone to help me along the way. I was nervous based on stories I’ve been told from others. I reached out to the Gigstad Law Office and ended up with Joshua Zarse. Josh did an amazing job. Not only did he meet my expectations but exceed them with the outcome of the matter. He guided me through legal process and he is great with communication with his clients. I have a high respect for him within the courtroom as well as outside of it. Thank you for treating my situation with respect and helping me as much as you did.

I highly advocate Josh to represent you. He is extremely knowledgeable and very communicative. Easy to get a hold of, treats you as a person and not just as “another case”. I would encourage you to hire him to represent you. Very kindhearted, made me feel very relaxed. I would 100% hire him again.

Very disappointed in my results from Jessica Timm. In the 1.5 years she had my case I only had 30 minutes of medical treatment. I had a slip and fall where I hit my head and was knocked unconscious, broke my nose and was left disfigured. I just didn't feel like she worked for me. Communication slow or not at all. She also represented me in a car accident prior to that they were close together but had I gotten the results from the car wreck, which were poor also, I would have went elsewhere for the fall. I had no medical treatments from the party who hit me on this case either and the monetary settlement was not worth my troubles. She got more than I did. Very disappointing that I now live with problems like headaches, facial swelling, blurred vision and brain fog but received no treatments.

Paths Law Firm, without question, is the wisest choice for help with my Family's Elder Law Legal needs.
From the initial informational meeting, I knew paths Law Firm was going to be an asset in developing a "Path" that my Family could follow to meet our Trust, and Power of Attorney needs.
Russell's understanding and care about our Family's situation and his unprecedented knowledge of the correct legal requirements were only the beginning. He was so kind that he even made a house call.

I would go to townsend law again 100% and recommend everyone who needs a lawyer to call Mike Townsend. He did a great job representing my case and fought for my settlement. I do have to say that although situations needing a lawyer are never good, I had the greatest experience. What made this experience so awsome was the constant support I recieved fron from Theresa and Colleen. I survived a fatality accident that left me handicap for the rest of my life. I lost my career my house, everything. So many days I wanted to give up, throw away my lawsuit, crawl into a hole and die. Theresa and Colleen never gave up on me and helped me to stay strong and stick it out. You can't imagine the stress, fear, doubt and self loathing a person goes thru until you are living it yourself. Theresa and Colleen would call just to check in with me to see how the kids and I were doing. On really bad days when I felt like I had no one and I wanted to give up I could always call Theresa and Colleen. Their caring, compassion, empathy and understanding is priceless. I could never thank them enough for all they have done to help me thru one of the most trying times in my life. I will be forever grateful that they were there for me every step of the way. Because of the Townsand law team my kids and I are finally building back and living a life worth having. Thank you .
Thank you Theresa, thankyou for reminding me how strong I am. Thankyou for keeping my head up. Thankyou for the days we sat and prayed on the
phone. Thankyou for the days you just called to make sure I was making it thru the day. Thankyou for just being you

I reached out to Ms. Kingston on two different occasions regarding situations with two different employers.
On both occasions, Ms. Kingston analyzed all of the facts involved and put together brilliant strategies and responses. Subsequently, both situations were resolved by Ms. Kingston without need for further litigation. However, if the situations had moved forward, I have no doubts that I was very well positioned for very favorable outcomes in court.
Ms. Kingston is extremely knowledgeable and knows the law backwards and forwards. Also, you will find that Ms. Kingston actually cares and will take time to explain your situation with all possible ramifications.
5 star rating plus for Ms. Kingston. If you find yourself in need of legal help regarding employment law, you owe it to yourself to contact Ms. Kingston first. Truly amazing!

Mike is a fantastic attorney. He really cares about his clients, especially families and children. He was totally focused on protecting my family and our assets with a revocable trust. His fees are incredibly reasonable. He gives you a quote and that's all it costs. No surprises, no extra charges. He is very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I'm very pleased with every aspect of the client service. Peter Jouras fought to get me the maximum settlement possible. I was very pleased, and a little surprised, by the size of the settlement he secured for me. His office was constantly in contact, throughout the whole process. I always had someone calling or emailing me to keep me updated on the progress, and they were always quick to get back to me when I emailed them a question. I could not be more pleased. I know that the next time I need an attorney, I'm coming back to Jouras.

From the start they were willing to go the distance for us. My husband didn’t like to get out of the house after coming home from the hospital and they made accommodations for us to begin our case. They were very informative about how they were going to handle the case and gave excellent advice on what to settle for. I would recommend John and the rest of the team for your work comp case.

My first time dealing with a lawyer was with Adams Cross, LLC. David Adams explained the options for my case, giving me all the information to make my own decision. I did not feel any pressure. Once the case began, he guided me all the way through, and was always available for questions. If I need law services in the future, my first call will be to Adams Cross, LLC.

After becoming parents, my husband and I needed to set up a will and all the legal documentation to have in case of passing. David was very easy to work with, providing all the documents and explaining what each document was about. It was a seamless process. A little over 10 years later we revisited these legal documents with David, and it was good to update our wishes. One of those things that is good to have done. David is personable, knowledgeable, and thorough. Great attorney.

Matt Bretz and his team handled my personal injury case in spectacular fashion culminating in a fair and just settlement well before going to trial. Their successful track record of years of ethical practices and knowledgeable, effective representation served me well. The lawyer you choose does make a difference.
I suffered a debilitating injury in a fall due to unsafe conditions while dining in a Kansas tourist town. We tried to negotiate a fair settlement with the proprietor's insurance company ourselves but they offered us only a laughable, token amount to sign off on all claims since their “investigation” concluded that their client was not at fault.
My husband had purchased a couple books on the subject of seeking a premises liability settlement without hiring a lawyer, which greatly aided our case. Learning from the many actual case histories detailed Matt’s book, we were able to compose a compelling and eloquent Demand Letter. Still, the insurance company knew they had the upper hand especially since we were out-of-state and out-gunned. So they hoped that we would simply give up in frustration fighting an uphill battle.
One of the books that we purchased from Amazon titled “And Justice for All: Win Your Injury Case with Honesty and Integrity” was co-authored by Matthew Bretz and Melinda Young of Hutchinson, Kansas. Besides the book’s excellent content, the law firm of Bretz and Young was a perfect fit geographically since we now needed a lawyer that was licensed to practice in Kansas yet not in the immediate vicinity of the same town. The stars were aligned which led us to call Matt’s office and shortly afterward he pulled off the road to call us for details. He enthusiastically convinced us that he wanted to take this case (for public safety concerns as well) and was confident in a favorable outcome. He followed up by having photos taken of the deteriorating premise conditions the following weekend and he took charge from day one.
Matt is a very cordial and compassionate gentlemen but when it came to his negotiating skills in mediation, his tenacity and experience shone through. Mediation is an increasingly common (and often mandated) formal procedure before assigning a court date that often results in early settlement. We quickly learned to appreciate having Matt on our side. The opposing lawyer team tried a couple tricks but Matt saw right through them and put them on the defense. He then cleverly devised a simple yet effective formula of assigning a calculated value of pain and suffering that a jury could easily assign a tangible figure. Just the mention of presenting this to a jury in closing arguments instantly broke the stalemate in mediation negotiations, leading to a quick and rewarding resolution without the time-consuming expense and uncertainty of a jury trial.
Regardless of whether or not you might try going it alone, you would do well to purchase a couple books such as Matt’s to educate yourself for one of the most important financial events of your life. Before you say or do something that might jeopardize your case, take the time to research and learn how the legal system works. Most likely if your case rises to a high dollar figure, you will benefit greatly by choosing the right lawyer to achieve a fair and just settlement. We found our perfect match in Bretz and Young.

I would like to state that if you need a lawyer Rick Morefield is the way to go. He worked with my family in the loss of my daughter. He was so compassionate and understanding and such a very hard worker.
Our case lasted over 7 years due to covid and he did not once give up on us even though he was not getting paid for all of the work that he was putting in for us. He came up with all kinds of strategies to win our case.
Rick took time to explain legal terms with us and made us aware of what he was doing and how he planned to win our case. I was very impressed on how knowledgeable he was about the law.
He was very easy to get in touch with and would call you back quickly,
I would not hesitate to use him again if needed.

There is so much that I can say about Rick and his team but nothing would express my gratitude level towards them. Rick is so caring and intelligent. He puts everything he has towards helping get the best outcome for his clients. He doesnt look at what is best for him at all, he purely cares for his clients. He was with me from day one in the hospital, he kept in touch with me throughout the entire case and it was not a 30 day situation. It took me 2 years due to the level of my injuries and having to end my medical care so we could see just how much I could gain back after my car accident. He was there for me when I needed to cry, when I needed to yell and everything in between. He was my voice of reason and knowing that my cases are over now I am more heartbroken just knowing that I will not have that constant contact as I have grown so fond of him. I know we will keep in touch because he is such a caring person. Watching him work during mediation, come up with scenarios and charts to help explain things so that you get the best outcome was amazing to see, he is the smartest person I have ever met. If you are looking for a firm that actually cares about you and will do whats best for your family then he is your attorney. He is 1000% better than any review could ever say.

Jerry Wallentine was my attorney for a reckless driving I had this last year. My first email to his office, I got a response from Jerry himself and within minutes I was on the phone with him and he had a game plan. I did look around comparing attorneys since I wasn’t from that area and by far Jerry was my top pick. Jerry absolutely knew what he was doing and seemed to know people in the right places. We weren’t able to get diversion due to certain things on my end and when my court date came, Jerry was right there with me. The court room was completely full and I still can’t believe it but Jerry got me to be seen first. We got exactly what we wanted out of it and Jerry saved me from losing my license. I’ve never left a review for anything but felt like I needed to let others know about my experience and how Jerry helped me out. Thanks again Jerry

Overall I am happy and satisfied with the services. The only reason I did 4 stars instead of 5 is most communication was completed by messaging, to which they did not answer my questions timely. I had to call the office or chat online to get answers, after waiting 2-3 days with no response. Not efficient in my mind. Other than that, everyone I spoke to and worked with, including the attorney, were helpful and pleasant.

We were recommended to Mr. Morrison during a very stressful and critical time in our civil court case. From the very first consultation and every interaction following, Eric has been quick to help us navigate the situation at hand. He goes above and beyond to handle hard situations with a great deal of care and sensitivity. He took time to meet with us in person and catch up on the ongoing situation. He brings a sense of peace during court hearings and is quick to call and further explain things if they are not clear during trial. He presents the truth with clarity, thoughtfulness, and sincerity. We were continually impressed with his motions and grateful that he was so on top of our case. Eric intentionally invested in our case and it has been life changing for our family! We are so incredibly grateful for his work and time! He has been a huge blessing for our family!!

My divorce was lasted over a year and a half, was very contentious and Eric stuck with me every step of the way. My ex had two attorneys during the process and we also had a guardian ad litem involved and Eric’s communication between all of the other parties and myself was very professional. Eric really took the time to listen to my story from the initial consultation onward. He is very compassionate, kind, and honest. He told me what the most likely outcomes would be all along the way in my custody case. My case ended up going to trial over property division and Eric was very prepared and prepared me very well for the questioning in court. We essentially won every argument made at trial. I could not have asked for a better outcome. I highly recommend Eric Morrison as an attorney to anyone going through such a difficult life transition as divorce.

Having never encountered such injury before, Tom's representation was essential. He is very knowledgable and provided guidance throughout the months of recovery then settlement and continues to provide information to us when requested.
Our questions were always answered in details we could understand and he updated us with information he received from the carrier. We felt as if we were all a "team"...with Tom as the coach!
Tom's assistant, Lynn, was valuable, also. She did not provide legal counsel, but answered questions within her realm.
My injury could have been worse physically and would have been much worse without Tom's representation. I was unable to deal with financial issues for several months and my wife needed legal guidance from someone who knows the "in's and out's" of insurance and medicare issues. We asked Tom to take over; my wife and I appreciate his guidance very much.

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.
