I have recommended Brad's services in the past to many of our customers and contemporaries in other offices or with parties I have worked with through Arbitration or past employment. I will continue to do so in the future should anyone ask. He is a good man to have at your back when you need him and he will step back if you need to take the lead. He gives excellent advise and when he does give advise or value recommendations he is usually right on the money. I like him because he is honest and forthright and he can explain the law to me in a way that I can understand. He responds promptly to requests for documents or status reports. He will do as much or as little as we tell him to. He doesn't overcharge hourly or take advantage by extending the life of a file in order to keep it on the books as long as he can. He's good about shutting down a Suit while the file is still undergoing initial discovery. Within 45 days he'll have a rough value and synopsis of his opinion of the case and will help opposing parties know what he would or would not recommend to us on settlement amounts. If I could use him on every case I have, I would. He's managed to settle many cases very reasonably without having to go to trial. He's good at mediations. He's won more Motions for Summary Judgements than any other lawyer I have worked with in this State and in other States. I use him for claims filed for Commercial Auto Liability, Commercial Property, Commercial General Liability and an occasional workers' comp claim. I am a multi-lines adjuster on Commercial accounts only, I handle 3 states. His assignments will include those that have suits filed against our insureds located in the State of Alabama and sometimes when a suit hasn't been filed but claim issues are complicated. He doesn't have to "buy" my loyalty, he has earned it in the 16+ years that I have worked with him. I have assigned him as defense counsel on the high risk accounts involving death or other major bodily injury and property damage on accounts written for Bridge Building, General Construction, Asphalt Plants, Trucking and Road paving/resurfacing. He's even worked a couple of products claims for me.
