I hired Jim Traut to sue for injuries I received in an accident caused by a drunk driver. I was always kept up to date on what was going on. Jim or someone from his staff always took my calls or returned them. Because they file your lawsuit right away, my case was resolved quickly and for top dollar. I would definitely use Jim again!
My previous attorney was worthless when compared to Traut Firm. I wish I would have known Jim Traut before. They were all nice, always answering my questions promptly. Jim always called me and dispelled all my fears. I will recommend him to any one I know needing legal help. I had the best experience ever!!
