The help that Sears & Associates provided me during a difficult stretch in my life was invaluable. They never stopped fighting for me and helped me overcome the challenges I was presented with. I will always appreciate their help! I would highly recommend their services if you find yourself in a tough bind.
My father was hit and killed by a vehicle while riding his bicycle in Colorado. Dealing with the tragic and sudden loss for my family was an immensely confusing and emotional period. Working with law enforcement, medical staff, district attorneys, banks, bills, insurance companies, funeral services and countless other offices simultaneously is something I hope no other person ever has to go through. Contacting Lance Sears and his team is the only part of the entire experience I would not change. Lance Sears took an immense burden off of my family and was the only part of that dark period that provided any clarity. I cannot reccomend Lance and his team enough. There is absolutely no way we could have made it through all of that without him on our side. Despite the tragedy, my family and I made it through safe, secure and healthy and it is entirely due to Lance Sears and his team. They went above and beyond in every aspect and I cannot thank them enough!
Lance is clearly skilled in his practice, and also enjoyable to work with. Lance helped me with an emotionally laborious issue against a colleague who missed my statute of limitations on a dog bite case. Lance worked up both the legal malpractice and the dog bite suit with intelligence, confidence and kindness that I had not experienced from any other lawyer. And I work with attorneys everyday. I was impressed with Lance and pleased with his commitment and our ultimate result.
I received a consultation from this team over the phone, at no cost other than 30 mins of my time. I'm not a rich man, and in all honesty did not have as much of a solid case as I would have thought. They could have taken me for what little money I had, and then told me I couldn't really press this case. Instead I was given blunt truth, education, and knowledge to my situation at no cost to myself. Rare is the first word that comes to mind. I called around 30 law offices today. This is the team that gave me the education I needed, and confidence to proceed. This is the team that this potential client will always choose. Thank you.
Lance Sears was referred to me when I needed legal counsel. Right away he reached out to me after my initial connection attempt and he quickly outlined the necessary steps to get my case rolling. Even under Covid last year, the details and the process were clear with his approach. I wanted to be represented by a lawyer who would place high value in helping me through this process and that's exactly what happened. I'm grateful to have been represented by Mr. Sears and I'm extremely satisfied with the entire handling of my case.
Lance and Kathy did a great job helping my daughter and I. The case moved along quickly and efficiently. I would definitely use the law firm again and will recommend them.
Lance Sears will not disappoint you. Smart is not an apt description of Mr. Sears intellect. In addition to usually being the smartest person in the room he is never caught off guard, being very experienced and knowledgable of the law. He is extremely hard working, leaving no stone unturned, analyzed or investigated. He will do everything in his power to achieve the desired result. Mr. Sears also employs a friendly, smart and very capable staff making all communications very easy. Mr. Sear's time and fees are a no brainer If you are truly serious about legally defending yourself to the maximum level possible. You can do no better then Mr. Sears.
