Skilled and dedicated advocate after my workplace injury

I hired Trent Shelton at Arnold & Itkin after a serious machinery accident at my job left me with significant injuries. While his firm is known for high-profile cases, Trent gave my complex personal injury claim his full attention. His background in product liability was crucial, as he immediately identified a potential defect in the equipment's safety guard. He was thorough in explaining the legal process and his strategy, and his recognition in Best Lawyers for plaintiff-side litigation gave me confidence. Trent secured a settlement that covered my medical bills and lost wages. The only minor critique is that during the busiest phases, response times from his assistant could lag a day or two. Overall, he is a sharp, compassionate attorney who fights hard for his clients.
