I had an absolutely amazing experience with the Wright Law Firm. Christine was so helpful in answering all of my questions and keeping me updated throughout the whole case. I will 100% recommend the Wright Law Firm and their whole team to my friends and family.

I personally can let you know what an amazing attorney Mr Tim Wright and his team is and has been to his clients and my patients. Start to finish when I have referred many of my very difficult patients, that have been seriously injured Mr Wright and his team helped answer their questions, concerns and challenges. As a chiropractor that specializes in car accidents and injuries and spinal rehabilitation- it’s important to have an expert attorney who understands and knows and cares about his clients and relates to each client and their families and friends and colleagues- thank you Mr Wright and your amazing team

I sustained some injuries to my back due to a car accident. I thought I couldn't afford legal representation until I found out about The Wright Law Firm. They were very professional, transparent, and flexible. I got a positive outcome and was able to pay for the treatment as a result. I hope these guys continue doing what they do for a very long time. They are providing a public service essentially.

I had gotten into a 4 car Accident, I was taken from the sene to the hospital and didn’t realize that I had been in a 4 car accident until after the fact. My Sister in-law had told me about the Wright Law firm and how much they had helped her and her accident. I went ahead and gave them a call and probably the best thing I could have done. I didn’t know where to start. I didn’t have any information other than it was a 4 car pile up. I was scared. When I called they ALL were so sweet and nice. They eased my mind and handled everything, including doctor referrals. They were amazing and HIGHLY recommend them to anyone that had an incident and don’t know where to start. They will take good care of you from start to finish.

I had a great experience with The Wright Law Firm. Honestly, the whole staff is great. Tim is very engaged with his clients, as well as great at communicating. They kept me informed of all developments through the process. They're very kind and caring, thorough, and also very fair. I would absolutely ask for their representation again. I will be referring my friends and family to The Wright Law firm as well. I now know from experience the difference between an attorney who wants your money and runs. And one that treated me kindly and considering the situation was very gracious. I've had bad representation in the past. And Mr. Tim Wright and his staff showed me what good representation looks like. I'm sincerely grateful for it. Thanks again, Wright Law Firm... You're a cut above ✂️

My daughter was in a major car accident last year. She was side swiped by a big rig on the freeway. Her car spun and she was hit by another car. As bad as her car was totaled, she walked away with only some bruises and whip lash (thank god). A few friends had used the Wright Law Firm in the past so I reached out to Christine. From the moment I spoke to her I knew she would be the right attorney to assist us. Her team was so great. They answered all of our questions and made the process so much easier. Christine, Tim and Ashley were all wonderful. They were compassionate and always available for questions and listened to our concerns. I would definitely recommend using The Wright Law Firm if you are ever involved in a car accident.

I engaged The Wright Law firm in the aftermath of a devastating multi car accident at the recommendation of a health care professional. Tim Wright not only provided referrals to other excellent professionals, but also laid out a strategy for negotiating among numerous insurance companies. All through a lengthy process he and his staff were attentive, forward thinking, encouraging, and thoroughly professional. They under promised and over delivered and were a pleasure to work with. I recommend Tim and his fine team without reservation.

When I first met Mr. Tim Wright I was impressed when He explained that He had also worked representing insurance Companies previously so He knows how both sides of a case operate , which I felt was a big advantage and it turned out to be true. I never felt like I was being a pain when I would call with a question or concern. My calls to Tim were always returned promptly if not immediately. His staff is courteous and professional .I would say ' You can't go wrong if you go with Wright' if I was making their commercial.

Tim Wright was so incredible! I was in a car accident and had to receive treatments for injuries sustained. Tim took care of everything for me while I was getting better, and I didn't have to worry about a thing. Communication with his office was so great. They quickly resolved all my concerns and Tim took time to personally call me and update me on the case whenever I had questions. I can't imagine doing this without him and his team. Everyone in the office is super friendly. I'm really glad I chose Tim Wright to represent me in my case! He really worked on my behalf and my settlement ended up being more than I expected. I highly recommend Tim to anyone who needs legal help!

As a first time client of the Wright Law Firm, I can't recommend them enough. Mr. Wright was incredibly easy to work with; when we first met, my husband and I knew he would do his best in regards to my case. He was very thorough with our initial meeting and we felt a very high level of trust. The staff is very friendly, professional and there for you with any questions. Towards the completion of the case, I again was pleasantly surprised with the professional and courteous treatment. I highly recommend the Wright Law Firm.

My name is Patrick and this is my experience with the Wright Law Firm.I was rear ended while stopped at a red light. After the initial shock I noticed my body was stiffening up and knew I needed help. I choose to immediately visit a chiropractor close to my residence for evaluation. After being seen I knew these type of injuries can at times show up a few days or even a few months later. I was referred to The Wright Law Firm and was told that they can help me along my rehabilitation process and that they would be able to help me get in with the right professionals to aid me and help me rehab from my injuries.I called The Wright Law Firm and was immediately scheduled for an appointment. The office was friendly and gathered my information efficiently and coordinated with my health professionals. The communication was clear and consistent. They were responsive in answering my questions. I met directly with Mr. Wright and he explained the process to me as I was not familiar with how these things go. After seeing the specialists, I am now able to be productive without pain. Mr. Wright contacted me with updates throughout the process more than I expected and this allowed me to focus on my life and recovery without worry about the legal matters.I would highly recommend The Wright Law Firm. They are the RIGHT lawyers to contact. I never felt like I was just another file. Their service was more personal and the outcome was phenomenal! I will not hesitate to send others their way! If you ever want to hear my story personally, contact Mr. Wright and I will be more than happy to share my experience with you personally.Patrick S.

Mr Wright and his team really care about you. He is a very experienced lawyer. I have used him on two separate occasions. One for my car accident and another for my child's dog bite which he set up an interest fund for him and he just turned 18 and received the money. I highly recommend him he is the best I have seen. I feel safe and rest assured when him and his team are backing me in my legal situations that I could not have handled without him.

Tim is a fantastic attorney! On two occasions he has helped me resolve lawsuits involving my car being hit from behind. In both cases he was knowledgable and empathetic. He did his due-diligence in obtaining a fair resolution for me, both medically and financially. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs assistance with his or her auto accidents/injuries.

At first my husband and I did not know where to turn. Then a friend told me that Mr. Wright and his firm did a great job for him. I thank the Lord for leading me to such a positive person and experience. I am very pleased with the outcome of my case with the Timothy Wright Law firm. My case was complicated and he walked me through it step be step. He kept me informed about what was going on with my case. The defense tried everything prevent the company from paying. But he went the extra step in getting my case resolved and the settlement exceeded my expectations. I would recommend his Law Firm to anyone. They get the job done! I feel truly Blessed!

I was involved in a car accident in May of 2016, Tim was recommended to me by a friend and I am glad I trusted him to lead me in that direction. The way they communicate it awesome, they give you updates on things as soon as they know and even with my busy schedule and terrible response time I was always up to date on what was happening with the case. I appreciate all the work and all the help he has done, definitely recommend them to whoever sustained an injury during an accident. They represent you the way you would want to be represented.

The Wright Law Firm and the entire team guided my family and I through a process we've never been through with professionalism, knowledge and best overall, with care.

Obviously I won't go in detail but we were very happy with the end result. I highly recommend Tim Wright and his team.

I put myself in Tim's very capable hands because I knew him a little. I let him do his thing. Now, knowing him personally would never be a deciding factor.

My parents, husband and I were hit head on while we were stopped at a traffic light...that's a night we will never forget, and even worse, was the fact that the driver that caused the accident, was uninsured. We're not "lawsuit happy" people, and more than anything, just wanted to make sure that we were all protected and healthy. We were trying to heal, and didn't want the added stress of dealing with adjusters and insurance companies. At that point, we were just thankful that we were all alive and walked away from the accident, and with only moderate injuries. We met with Tim at The Wright Law Firm. He made us feel comfortable, and at ease, and we knew he was the right attorney for us. Throughout the entire process, he kept us apprised, returned every call and email, and his staff was knowledgeable and great to work with.Tim is a fantastic attorney, and made us feel valued, and protected. He really knows what he's doing. We felt entirely confident in his ability, and in the end, the result of our settlement was even better than anticipated. I highly, and enthusiastically recommend The Wright Law Firm!
