Joanna Turnbull

Expert guidance through a complex car accident claim

I engaged Joanna Turnbull at Hall & Wilcox after a serious multi-vehicle collision left me with significant injuries and facing an uncooperative insurance company. From our initial consultation, it was clear Joanna possesses a deep, practical understanding of personal injury litigation. Her nearly ten years of focused experience in this field, particularly her recognition in it, was evident in how she immediately identified the strategic weaknesses in the other side's position and the true value of my claim. She managed the complex medical documentation and liability arguments with a calm, methodical precision that kept the process moving forward even when negotiations stalled. Her advice was always clear, and she never pressured me into a decision, ensuring I felt in control. The settlement we ultimately achieved was substantial and has provided crucial financial stability for my recovery. My only minor critique would be that during particularly busy periods, there could be a delay of a day or two in email responses, though her paralegal was always helpful as a point of contact. Overall, Joanna is a formidable and compassionate advocate. I highly recommend her to anyone in the Portland area navigating the aftermath of a serious injury.
