As a nonprofit organization working with members in the community who are experiencing mental struggles, trauma, recovery battles, and difficult living circumstances, it's amazing to have a law firm like Yarborough Applegate that cares to give back and support the community from the ground up. Their team has been incredible to work with and truly cares to see impact beyond the workplace. Their continued support and involvement in our community events and fundraisers creates a ripple effect in the community that is hard to measure. Needless to say, without them, my job would be a whole lot harder if not impossible!

This review is long but worth it. I want to start by saying that I originally did not hire this firm. I was injured in an accident in SC but lived out of state so in the midst of trying to recover, I simply asked a few people for a referral and they suggested another firm. I was told by others that I should get a lawyer simply because it would make it easier on me as they would handle communications with bills etc. and take things off my plate. I do not want to go into too many details on that firm as this is not their review but my experience with them was absolutely horrible. I felt like my case was going to end poorly and I felt like I had no control over that, despite the fact I was killing myself trying to heal and trying to do deal with them. I even had doctors call me directly, refusing to deal with my lawyer there, because of his unprofessionalism. As luck or fate would have it, thankfully someone at that firm asked David Yarborough to step in to see if he could help on my case. For no extra charge to me. I can never put into words how much I owe to David and his team, as well as a 3rd firm that stepped in. After the very first introduction, I called my friend crying because I could tell that I finally had someone who very clearly knew what they were doing. Shortly after, I was introduced to the rest of his team and their empathy, professionalism, and kindness, was overwhelming after not having that for over 3 years. They continually reminded me that my focus should be on healing, that it should not be on the case. They also never made me feel like I had to prove my injury. I would like to specifically call out Cait, the paralegal I dealt with, as her compassion was everything. When I would mention how incredible it was that they were so kind and actually treated me like a person, Cait told me that they all had done specific trainings and team exercises to make sure they focused on the clients needs, including the impact trauma has on mental health. That it was important to them that they showed that in their actions. Cait talked to me often to calm and reassure me, including supporting my faith in God, the morning before court. She is not only great at her job, but is a beautiful, kind person; inside and out. I also know the stereotypes that come with lawyers and despite being INCREDIBLY good at what they do and being very successful; never once did David or Reynolds show up with their ego in the way, or treat me as less than them. I dealt directly with them, not some gatekeeper, and they showed the action Cait mentioned above. They were "regular" relatable guys, who cared deeply about what they do and their clients. They hugged and held me when I was crying after court and never shamed me for being emotional. I am writing this because I cannot recommend them enough and they changed my life. Not just because of the result of my case, but because of how they treated me. They probably will never understand how badly I needed that at the time and I am forever thankful.

I am so thankful to the Yarborough law firm for their work on my case. They kept me informed on everything and were able to settle everything in great time. I highly recommend to anyone in need of an attorney to go here.

Liam Duffy and Douglas Jennings are nothing short of amazing! They areTHE BEST LAWYERS!! In my case, I was hit by a drunk driver, which is considered a motor vehicle collision. They have a lot of experience with this kind of case and I would recommend them to anyone in need of a personal injury lawyer. Their communication throughout the process was wonderful. As we worked through the case they explained how everything worked in a relatable way, which helped me to understand what was happening. If anything new was going on with the case, Liam, Douglas or one of the paralegals that was working with them, would call or email to update me. If I had questions, all I had to do was reach out to them and I would hear back quickly. When we went to court they were so well prepared, which is a big deal with the way the courts are working during COVID. Court cases come up quickly, one minute you’re 30th in line for your trial and then once the court goes through the list you might find you’re the next trial. When we walked into the courtroom I was amazed at just how well prepared Duffy and Jennings were. I was so nervous but I had no reason to be because they had everything under control. They had back-up plans for back-up plans. It was obvious that they had spent the time between when I hired them and the trial researching, getting depositions and having everything ready to go for court. They negotiated a wonderful settlement and I am grateful for that. Duffy and Jennings' experience, professionalism and personal approach was everything I could have hoped for in a lawyer. I’m grateful to the entire team at Yarborough Applegate. During the trial a group of the Yarborough Applegate lawyers showed and sat in the gallery to show support for their co-workers, to me that’s a sign of teamwork and a good law firm that supports and helps each other. Heather O’Sullivan was the paralegal at the trial, she was helping Douglas and Liam but she also had a very calming presence which I’m so grateful for. Caitlin Clancy’s communication over the years was amazing and Emily Cowan’s help during the trial and afterwards with the settlement paperwork has been fantastic. If you need a lawyer, talk to and hire Liam Duffy and Douglas Jennings at Yarborough Applegate.

Highly Recommend Yarborough Applegate Law Firm. Liam and the whole team were very nice and stayed in contact with me throughout my whole case. I had a life changing case and lucky to be alive and they made it all worth it. THANKS 🙏

There are not words to express how phenomenal this law firm is. We had a long, complicated case and the attorneys of Yarborough Applegate won a life changing settlement for our family. They were extremely accessible to us any time we had questions and kept us informed every step of the way. On top of their knowledge and expertise, we felt they were truly personally invested in our family. In fact, they have continued to stay in touch with us after settling the case. Highly recommend!
