Call 911
- Call 911 and request an ambulance
- Tell the ambulance personnel about all of your injuries
- Remain in the area where you fell
Take Photos

I was assaulted in June of 2021 and almost lost my life. With the bar I was at being partially to blame I looked for counsel to represent me with a case against them. I would then go through several lawyers that either put it on their backlog or flat out told me I didn’t have a case. Finally I landed with Leigh and he was able to turn my case into a significant settlement. Not only were they able to do this for me but they did it in a timely and professional manner. Trusting them, I had them also deal with a separate matter which they had helped turn out as good as the first issue. They work hard to ensure the best for the people they represent and I would recommend them to anyone. I would like to thank them and also let others know that you are safe in their hands.

We asked for an evaluation on a case and was given more than what we could've asked for. Leigh Sutton was very helpful in explaining and clarifying our situation. He was very quick in answering all our questions in detail and very patient no matter how trivial or obvious our questions were. We HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND this firm if you are looking for an attorney that is honest, knows what they are doing, and keeps their clients very well informed.Thank you again Leigh Sutton, Esq. for your time and help with everything.

After my auto-accident, I had serious doubts about my professional career. It's highly laborious, and taking a leave of absence due to an injury was a financially devastating experience.Dan really held my hand through getting myself back in order. He educated me on my many, many questions and gave me a great sense of autonomy with what course of action we wanted to take with my full sense of understanding every step of the way.I also give him major props for reaching out to me through the pandemic to let me know the status of our case, even when it was covid-paused for many months. I always felt like I was in great hands.My experience working with Dan was working with someone transparent, helpful, and consistent, and I'm really happy I met him when I did.
