introduction
QUESTIONNAIRE
Helped a nice guy who had lost his eye in a car crash to obtain a high 6 figure compensation package that will assist him greatly in going through life with only one eye.
How did you build a successful practice?Being a straight shooter with my clients, working hard, giving personal attention to them, and never being afraid to try a case to a jury.
What should clients look for in a lawyer?Obviously a highly skilled trial lawyer with a successful track record. Beyond that, a lawyer they can relate too, who will return their phone calls and emails, and treat them like a special individual, and not just another "client/case."
How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?With personal injury, it pays to know the surgeons and other doctors in the community and also to know the insurance company doctors and how to discredit them.
What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?Whether they have a case or not and any detailed information they might need.
What information do you need in a free phone consultation?Details of accident and injuries.
What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?My personality-My client's like me because I give them personal attention. I am also a highly skilled trial lawyer with over 28 years of experience trying and winning cases.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?Helping people. When a client is about to lose everything because of insurance company tactics of delaying and denying payment of medical bills, wage loss, and compensation, and I am able to obtain justice for the client, the gratefulness from my client is incredibly fulfilling.
What are your other interests in addition to law?Community service, family and friends, biking, and swimming.
Are you involved in your community?Yes, on 2 boards, and active in the local community.

I would like to thank you "Randy"for the services you are rendering to me. Very attentive, detailed, and understanding to my situation. Very knowledgeable & sharp also. I would recommend this firm to those who are in need of a confident attorney. He seems to go the extra mile for his clients. Once again thank you and your wonderful staff.

Robert was referred to me by another lawyer who knew he specialized in my case. I'd never been in a situation like this before but he was perfect – I had a lot of questions and he was always courteous and thoughtful with his replies.
