Client Testimonials

I would always suggest Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler

My insurance company refused to cover my injuries in an accident where they insured both parties. The other party was unquestionably liable and but did not have sufficient coverage, so damages should have been paid under my uninsured/underinsured coverage. Even though I had paid for uninsured/underinsured coverage for many years, my insurance company refused to pay. Andy Sommerman and his staff at Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler won the case in a jury trial even though there were three times as many attorneys and support on the opposing side. I would always suggest Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler if you need an attorney that is not intimidated by multi-billion dollar insurance companies.

After Suffering a Hit and Run

After suffering a hit and run, I turned to Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler for some much-needed legal assistance. The team at Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler worked fastidiously for three years to resolve my complex legal matter, and kept me informed throughout the whole process. In the end, Andy Sommerman was successful in having the truck owner’s insurance pay the bills.

I Refer Them to Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler Without Reservation

The clients we refer are treated professionally and are very pleased with the settlement proceeds they receive. Anytime I receive a call regarding a personal injury case, I refer them to Sommerman, McCaffity, Quesada & Geisler without reservation – I know they will be in good hands.
