I’m exceptionally happy working with Jerry Thurswell. I was given straightforward, honest information from a well-informed, seasoned professional like him and also he was able to represent me in the court for a large settlement case that I filed against a friend of mine who betrayed me after running away a huge amount of money. Jerry was very on point and did a great job on my case. I highly recommend him.

I got into a car accident and had injuries. While I was struggling to recover, I simply did not have the capacity to deal with the insurance companies. Once I decided to use the services of Jerry Thurswell, I immediately felt at ease. He gave me all the information on how we would proceed with my case, put me in contact with the doctors that I needed for my recovery and handled everything with the insurance companies. I ended up getting all my bills covered and feeling like I was really taken care of during a time when I needed it. I would definitely recommend Jerry Thurswell to everyone.

They walked me through the process, and someone was always available and able to get back to me quickly and answer any questions I had. They were all really on top of my case and got it done. I was very happy with the end result of the case.
