One of the most skilled and gifted attorneys in the area. Elizabeth makes the legal process seem seamless, and she always keeps you in the loop. She is well versed in personal injury cases and commands a wealth of legal knowledge at her disposal. She makes you feel at home; reducing the stress of complicated cases. She ended up getting my case settled for more than expected. I wouldn't go to anyone else.

Ms. Welch did an excellent job representing me in an automobile accident claim. Once I engaged her, she handled everything and I was awarded a fair settlement. It was a relief not to have to deal with insurance company.

Elizabeth is excellent. She got the outcome we all needed and wanted. She was always punctual, she explained everything and made us feel like friends. Can't say enough good things.

I was in car accident in Oregon, car totalled and ongoing injuries, but live in Canada, adding complications to the situation. Working totally via phone and email Elizabeth explained to me every step of the way what needed to be done. She took all of the stress from my shoulders for the entire process, and fought hard for me so that I ultimately received a settlement I was very happy with. Thanks!

Elizabeth did a great job. She handled everything, did a great job explaining the process, and I walked away with my claim completely settled, my car fixed, my bills paid, and some compensation for my injuries. Great!

I could not be happier with the work Elizabeth has done for me. She has taken care of me twice now and gone above and beyond what I expected each time. I would recommend her to anyone anytime. There is no better feeling than passing off the stress that comes with legal matters to someone that is as professional and experienced as her. She is the best. I can't thank her enough!

Awesome job! Elizabeth knows what your injuries are worth. She was able to get the settlement she demanded for me and answered all my questions, & addressed all of my concerns promptly. Elizabeth is a "no nonsense" considerate professional & knows her stuff! I will recommend her to everyone who is injured in an accident.
