Craig, is an unbelievable attorney. He went above and beyond for my family and I. I will refer him to anyone that is in need of an attorney. In my opinion Craig is not in it for the money, he is very personable and cares about the outcome of any situation. He is truly one of a kind.
Craig was not only well thought and prepared but made an argument based on truth and solid ground that he could back up with precedent. I will only work with Craig going forward and will recommend him to anyone and everyone.
Craig MacLellan recently did an excellent job for my wife and I going up against a pet insurance company that was partaking in some particularly deceitful practices. Craig was very familiar with this area and made us feel quite at ease in our dealings with him. He took a great deal of time to carefully review all facts and strategize a position with our best interests in place. He certainly knows how to effectively prepare his clients when facing a possible legal battle and his knowledge and experience are immediately evident. I would certainly recommend Craig for not only consultation, but anyone looking to hire a well versed and highly experienced local attorney who knows how to give his clients the utmost attention, necessary preparation, excellent communication, and overall highly professional representation who you certainly want on your side of the table in a stressful situation. Craig will exceed all expectations and is an excellent strategist. Highly recommend Craig and his firm.
Had an issue with a construction rental company that went of business and through Craig's advise and services we were able to find a financial solution that worked and he was more than fair on the price for his services, he was recommended by a close friend and again word of mouth is the best advertisement. I own a business that unfortunately runs into situations with clients and contractors so hopefully I don't have to use him soon but when I do i will be going through Craig
Craig was easy to work with, very prepared and knowledgeable and always quickly responded to my calls. Thanks!
I had consulted two other lawyers prior to hiring Craig for a complex and deeply personal case. Craig defies all the negative lawyer stereotypes. I am impressed that he is extremely responsive, sharp and most importantly, compassionate. He takes the time to listen, is detail oriented, strategic and genuinely advocates the best outcome for his clients. I have no reservations giving him the highest recommendation.
We are a small business with 58 employees, we hired Craig based on referral from our corporate office. He was always reachable and professional. i will be using his services as needed in the future
We have known Attorney Craig MacLellan for nearly 2 years now. He has provided excellent service to us. He is completely trustworthy. He comprehended the situation and made appropriate recommendations about how to proceed. He was organized and prepared in our hearing. He was knowledgeable and has good instincts. We appreciated his candor and explanations. He has a very good work ethic. His communication skills are excellent and response time is without delay.
Craig has resolved several business issues for us over the years. I find him and his staff to be most attentive and efficient. When ever the need arises I don't hesitate to call on Craig. Most certainly a true professional !
Im the general manager of a small Business of 50 employees.. I've had to utilize Craig's services on a few occasions. He's always available when I need advice, or litigation. He's certainly help me out of a few jams.. I've used different attorneys in the past and there always seems to be difficulty with availability, not with Craig. He's always been a professional.. I would recommend Craig to anyone who is seeking counsel...
