Afternoon my car accident I was stressed out with how to handle things. After my first call to Mr.Sanchez all that stressed was taken away. Mr. Lytal and Mr. Sanchez handled my case quickly and professionally. Every message was answered quickly and professionally. Hopefully I’ll never be in this situation again, but if I am I know who I will call.
Thank you to Steve Sanchez and every person involved in my case. Steve thoroughly explained to us what we could expect throughout the process and the possible outcomes of the case – both good and bad. He kept on top of everything and was able to negotiate a very fair settlement. I would highly recommend this firm.
Lytal Reiter and Steven Sanchez has done a fantastic job representing me in a personal injury case, I cannot be more pleased with their professionalism and the overall outcome, if you have the unfortunate event of an accident, have the good sense and good fortune to have great attorneys like them on your side. Thank you again!
