We hired the law firm of Pita, Weber, Del Prado after reading their excellent reviews. Our case involved a serious injury following a mountain biking accident. It was a pleasure dealing with Skip, Randy, Shannon and office staff. They were professional, compassionate and kept us informed throughout the proceedings and trial phase of our case. We were truly impressed with their expertise and blown away with our case presentation at trial. Shannon took the time to come to the courthouse on the day the verdict was read to offer support which we found to be very comforting. We are extremely pleased with the outcome of our case. Thank you Skip, Randy and Shannon, you exceeded our expectations. Recommend without hesitation!
