Ian Booth Kelley | San Francisco Personal Injury Lawyer

Our economically vulnerable client was being sexually harassed by her landlord as she worked to keep a roof over her head for her and her daughter. We were able to settle the case for a significant enough sum that the client was in a position to buy a home and bring stability to her family's life.

By connecting with my clients and working to understand the human side of their cases.

An attorney who is smart and willing to talk straight - to give a realistic assessment of what it means to work through the legal process, which presents unique challenges in the quest for justice.

What is important is that the attorney understand the subject matter of the case; one of the most pleasurable things about being an attorney is getting to learn about different subjects, from how houses are built to how engines work; an attorney needs, first and foremost, to understand their case.

I can provide an honest and realistic assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the case.

I need to know the who, what, where, and when of the case; we will learn the ""why"" as we go.

I enjoy learning and pursue continued legal education as a pleasure; there is always more to know.

Being able to help people.

Well, in 2020 I've got a heck of a garden going.
