The day started normally with me riding my bicycle to the gym, like I did every day. Then, all of a sudden, I was struck by a car leaving a parking lot. I was in shock and really didn't know what to do. The driver then proceeded to tell me it was all my fault, that I shouldn't have been on that side of the street. Ignorantly, I believed them and thought I was lucky the whole thing was going to be dropped.
Next thing I know, I was being contacted by his insurance company and their lawyers. They proceeded to explain how I could be susceptible to hefty fines amongst other things such as being taken to court. THEY were trying to get money from ME. Now, I didn't know much but I knew that did not sound right. I was clearly trying to be taken advantage of.
I decide to get my own lawyer and that is when I contacted Tri-Counties Criminal Defense. I proceeded to tell them my situation and I could tell they actually cared and wanted justice for me. James Askew took over my case and delegated tasks for me to do immediately that would strengthen my situation. He contacted the insurance company and their lawyers for me and their attitude towards the case seem to change. He continued to follow up with me every day and was easily accessible anytime I needed him.
James was prepared to go to court, I felt like he was prepared to take on anything just for me. The insurance company and their lawyers stated they no longer wanted to go to court and said they would actually pay me for my troubles.
I was happy but James was not! He declined their offer and demanded more, which they ended up paying. Tri-Counties Criminal Defense went above and beyond for me. If you're looking for lawyers who will do anything in their power and will not rest until justice is served then this is the place you need to call! Thank you guys so much!
