Mikey Orr
A rare angel in our time of crisis
My partner was in an accident in 2019 which resulted in her becoming paralyzed (quadriplegia). To say the least, the experience was very traumatic. Lee Orwig was recommended to us. He was the one bright spot in our bleak lives at that time and he continued to stay by our side throughout the whole settlement process (which took over 2 years). Lee flew down to AZ to initially meet with us in person and he kept in touch, closely working with us. He was our advocate so many times when we dealt with institutions and lots of red-tape, which made our lives more complicated at the time. Lee unraveled the issues and calmly communicated with personnel at rehab centers, nursing homes, etc., allowing us to focus on my partner's care and well-being. Lee explained the settlement process as it was ongoing and towards the end, recommended an excellent mediator to represent us. I am eternally grateful to Lee for all he has done for us. I can say with confidence that I feel he is one of those rare angels who appeared to us at a time of great crises. He has been totally committed to us and honest with us. Two qualities that I find to be most admirable and valued in any person, and even more so in a lawyer. I dare not think about what we would have done without Lee, but I am nothing but grateful for him—and always will be!
Becky Hatcher

Paul Pierce III
Easy to understand and professional
We chose Steve Helseth based on a recommendation from our investment person and we are very glad we did! Our main concern with our mother’s estate was doing things correctly, in a timely and legal manner. Steve is very easy to talk to and most importantly easy to understand. Everyone we dealt with at the firm was very professional, helpful, and caring with our mother’s end-of-life journey. We would highly recommend Steve Helseth.

Steve did a great job in helping us set up a complete estate plan. This included power of attorney, setting up trusts, health care directives, and a will for my wife and myself. He and his staff were very helpful and left us feeling very confident that our assets will be transferred to our children, with the least amount of taxes and as we wished. I would highly recommend him.

Emily E
Guidance Provided by Jessie Griffin
My wife, Teresa, and I were referred to Jesse Griffin at Bolt Law Firm by our financial advisor, Jim Bear. We needed to create a revocable trust. It's difficult to know where to begin and just START the process, so we were thankful for the guidance that Jesse provided. There was an initial meeting with a questionnaire that was provided to complete at home. A follow-up meeting with Jesse helped us better understand a lot of the legal language that neither my wife nor I speak very well. After a few phone calls for minor corrections and clarifications to the legal team, which, by the way, were VERY accessible, we scheduled a signing date. At the conclusion of the signing, Jesse presented us with a well-organized notebook containing our trust with all notarized documents and instructions. The process is pretty easy once a person gets started. A very friendly, accessible, and helpful office staff, along with Jesse's exceptional ability to effectively communicate the complicated legal language, deserves nothing less than 5 stars! Thank you for helping us complete this important task!

Yes, you may still file a claim even if you are partially at fault. Many states follow a comparative negligence rule, where compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are 20% at fault, your compensation would be reduced by that amount. An attorney can help you navigate this process and strive to maximize your compensation.
What should I do after an accident?
After an accident, prioritize your safety and health. Seek medical attention immediately, even if you feel fine. Document the scene by taking photos and gathering contact information from any witnesses. Report the accident to the police and obtain a copy of the report. Notify your insurance company about the incident. It's also advisable to consult a personal injury lawyer to understand your rights and explore your legal options.
How long does it take to resolve an accident claim?
The duration to resolve an accident claim varies depending on the complexity of the case, the willingness of parties to negotiate, and court schedules. Some claims may settle in a few months, while others may take years, especially if they proceed to trial. Your attorney can provide a more accurate timeline based on your case's specifics.
What is the statute of limitations for filing a claim?
The statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim varies by state, typically ranging from one to three years from the date of the accident. This time frame may vary depending on the specific circumstances of your case and the state where the accident occurred. It's crucial to consult with a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure you file your claim within the allowed period.
