I was referred to Thell after not making forward progress with another attorney on a personal injury claim for an auto accident in 2014. My injury was both serious and complicated, so trying to heal and simultaneously worrying about my lawsuit felt overwhelming. Thell's entry relieved this anxiety. Thell and his staff treated me with compassion while they assembled my medical history and a clear case. Everything was thoroughly explained, patiently, and every piece of advice I received was reasonable and helpful. During the deposition process I felt well prepared and supported... Adrienne B.
