I’m so grateful that Craig Ortwerth and his office took on my car accident case. Craig was so easy to work with and he quickly replied back to any questions or concerns I had and explained every step to me. I felt such relief knowing I was in good hands and I didn’t have to worry about dealing with the insurance company so I could focus on healing from my accident.

Having Craig work on my case from beginning to end was the best decision I'd ever made! My case went on for 3 1/2 years and during that time i never had to worry about "bothering him or his staff with questions, or their patience in explaining what was going on or what I needed to do. They kept me and everyone involved informed and things went along smoothly! I hope to never have a case like this again, but if I do, there is absolutely NO doubt in my mind as to where I'd go and who I'd have to handle my case!!I highly recommend anyone to at least sit down for a consult. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!! Great Job Craig (& Marcie!!)

Craig was great and did a fantastic job for me. He is very professional and knew how to do his job. Craig is a very friendly, compassionate and understanding person. He answered all my questions and called to see how I was doing. I would recommend Craig to everyone. In my book he is an outstanding attorney.
