I loved working with Sean DuBois. It was a very positive experience. Sean was really great to work with. I would recommend him to anybody, and the process was as pleasant as it possibly could have been. I never felt stressed about the case. I never felt worried, because I felt like he was really on it, and I trusted him, and he had it covered. My favorite part of working with him was that he was just very good at what he does, and he just alleviated all that worry. The results were much better than I had hoped for actually, because going into it the other driver didn’t admit any fault, and so as the case progressed, it got more complicated. What I was being faced with was going to be some percentage my fault, even though it seemed very clear to me that it was definitely not my fault. But because of legality and whatnot in the State of Oregon, Sean was preparing me that there might be some percentage that would be my fault and what that would mean and all that. So I had prepared myself kind of for the worst case scenario, and it just turned out so much better than I had even hoped, so I was 100 percent not at fault and so that was wonderful. I was very happy that I didn’t have to have the conversations with the insurance companies on the phone, because it got a little bit complicated, and I was very happy to let someone else who is professional deal with talking to the insurance companies about everything. I think it could have been a lot more messy than it turned out to be and more stressful. I felt like all the stress was taken off of me. All I had to worry about was getting better and getting back to my normal life, and it was really nice to not have to worry about what I had said to the insurance company, or talking to them again, or trying to prove anything. All I had to do was just get better again. I mean Sean is great. He’s easy to talk to. He’s very trustworthy. He just allows you to be yourself and just talk about what happened, versus feeling at all like uncomfortable or intimidated or like I’m talking to a lawyer, like what if I say the wrong thing. He’s very calm, and the words are escaping me, but he’s really easy to work with, and I always felt very comfortable working with him.

I’m very pleased with the service. [The case] was very stressful. From the aches and pains I had in the beginning to dealing with the insurance companies one-on-one. But then, having to go through litigation, it was very stressful. And it makes you feel like you’re a bad guy, and having somebody on your side proving that you’re not the bad guy, that you’re a victim feels very nice. And that’s exactly what happened. From the beginning of our first appointment with Sean, just the formalities of: This is what I have to bring to him; this is what he has to offer, and we met in the middle. It was totally in the middle. No empty promises. It was: This is what I can do, everything else is up in the air until we get to the end, you know, it’s out of our control. But this is what we can do. And I don’t lose. You don’t know what to look for. You don’t know what to and what not to look for. You know you don’t want a bad lawyer; you want a good lawyer. You want to go in and get out and feel okay about it. And from this standpoint, it’s been like that. That was very reassuring and he came across as professional at all times, very down to earth, and very informative at all times. Any questions I had, he explained in full detail, but in layman’s terms. . . . Sean prepping me, the meeting beforehand, worked out really well. The preparation for that helped me a lot. I tend to talk very fast. And Sean, he helped me with that so that I could come across not scatter-brained and scared and confused and just really focus on the truth. And that was very helpful.

In the end my case was successful and I even ended up with more money that I had originally expected. All without stepping foot in court!

I bought you doughnuts because I was so happy that you helped me, and I just wanted to show you my appreciation for getting me the most money that you could for my troubles, for my pain, for what I went through, and I really appreciate that. And I know you put your best effort into that every step of the way. And you called me to let me know what you were doing; you shared with me all of the information. To have somebody else take care of it when you’re trying to deal with all the things that you have to deal with in relation to the car accident and trying to go to physical therapy and everything like that. It would have been a much bigger stress on my back to try to deal with insurance companies. I already did try for a few days there, so, I know what it’s like to talk to them when they’re manipulating. So it was nice to be able to put it in your hands and not have to deal with it – and get a check at the end. It was just a lot more than just the pain, you know. There was a lot of other stuff that went on. You know, it’s nice to be compensated just a little bit for all the other stuff I dealt with and I appreciate you helping me.

I would like to sincerely thank you for your kindness, honesty, perseverance, and helpfulness. You’ve been supportive and always easy to get ahold of and I’ve appreciated your taking my case all these months. Thank you, and God bless.

Prior to our meeting I must admit I was a little anxious. Here I was a student, naturally worried about how I was going to pay for the services and not quite sure of my rights. The anxiety quickly dissipated after our first meeting. You sat down with me, listened to my concerns, and gave me a list of documents I needed to collect in order to make the process run smooth. I was informed of my rights. After leaving the office, I felt optimistic that my issue would be resolved. When I got home that night there was even an email waiting from you – how reassuring it was to know you had already started working on my case!

I appreciate all you did for me. As you could probably guess, it was my first time needing a lawyer, but you made everything very comfortable. Especially, I appreciate how you worked to get the debts lowered for me. I do hope I’m never in a position to need a lawyer for anything like this, but of course, if the need comes up you would be my choice. Have a good Holiday season and I hope you have lots of time to spend with your family.

Since I never needed an attorney before, a friend of [name deleted] asked him to find someone for me. I thought you did a great job at explaining everything as it would happen and I especially loved breakfast before court. I remember it was a good experience and I really appreciated the fact that you talked to the doctors and helped me get their price and yours lowered. I had no idea you could do that.

We found you in the phone book and happy we did, you are very helpful and made my case easy and not painful, I was in a collision with my work truck that was very scary and thankfully everyone is OK. At all times I felt informed and you tried your hardest to get me what I deserved. I would say keep up the great work, and I will definitely keep you in mind anytime trouble was to come my way.

During the trial you were very focused. All the advice you gave me made perfect sense and I never questioned its importance in succeeding. I had very little idea what was going to happen with my situation, but you seemed to grasp immediately what the situation would be like for me and its duration till completion. You always returned my emails and calls in a timely manner. Anything that you explained to me be it a strategy, legal concept, document, or law was done clearly and completely. I always felt like you knew what you were doing when action was necessary in progressing the case and developing a time line. My case result was very satisfactory. Given the extreme dedication you gave my case, I felt, and still feel, that you deserved more money. Whoever heard of wanting to give a lawyer even more money, right?!

You were friendly and professional when you returned my call. All of the other attorneys kept it very short when I told them my situation. You gave me a chance by offering an appointment to hear me out. Even when you were outside of office hours and even on vacation, you never let me go more than a day without returning a phone call or email. I felt you were with me all the way. Even when it was bad news, you let me know every step of the way each step we had to take and why. You handled my case so well that in the end you ended up giving me satisfactory results twice. I was able to pay off all of my bills, then also got a second settlement that allowed me some financial freedom. Every aspect was handled well. Never did I dream that an attorney could represent me fully without me having to pay a retainer up front. My case was so well handled, and the results were so life changing for me, I have only wonderful things to say. In this economy, I’m even more grateful to you than you will ever know, that you took the time to listen to me where the other attorneys would not. You were always honest, never offered me false hope, always were there every step of the way. But most importantly, I can never find words to thank you for believing I had a case, and stepping up for me even though I had no up front money to offer you. Because of you, I’m able to navigate through this economy’s financial crisis without the constant calls from the bill collectors. I had considered bankruptcy, but I held my own because you were fighting for me. I think about you often and will never forget your name.

You were very courteous and professional. My lawsuit was drug out a long time and I really appreciated you not giving up on me. I was very impressed with the timely response with all of my phone calls. I never felt like I was pushed aside because you were too busy. My case results were satisfactory because of what we were dealing with. It is hard to prove incidents with no witnesses! I felt very lucky to have an attorney who stood by me.

All of our experiences in dealing with you were positive. You were timely, prompt and always kept us up to date on what was going on. You continually were looking out for my best interest. Without a doubt I would not hesitate to refer you as a lawyer if someone, i.e. co-worker, friend or family member needing legal assistance. If you could not help them I know you could refer them to another lawyer who could assist them.

I chose DuBois Law Group for the fact that Mr. DuBois responded to my phone the very next morning, and came to see me in the rehabilitation center the following day. I had no negative experiences of any kind with DuBois Law Group. Every phone call I placed was answered on the spot, or the call was returned within the hour. Everything ran so smoothly. I felt that every concern I had was taken care of in a timely manner. My attorney, , came to my home three months after my injury to show me the settlement he had won for me. I was amazed that he was able to achieve this so quickly. [He] helped me with wage loss checks that supplemented my income for the six months I was home from work. He was very pleasant and professional. I had total confidence in him, and felt very fortunate that he was representing me with my case. My expectations were far exceeded to say the least.

I was quite pleased with the manner you handled my case. Yes, I would say that you acted in a courteous and professional manner. I feel that I was kept in the loop and all communication was prompt. I believe the overarching feeling of my interaction with counsel in my case was that I was heard, understood and respected in the process. When I didn’t understand a particular point of law, you explained it to me so that I could make the best decision possible. I felt I was treated in such a way that I was pleased with the interaction.

I felt and know now that you knew exactly what you were doing. You knew what the process to resolve the matter was and all the legalities behind it. I recall being regularly apprised of the matter and it was resolved quickly. You are a warm person. You listened well and made me feel like my complaint was valid and that you understood how I was feeling. I never had a single negative experience with you. In fact, I have since given the few business cards you gave me to friends and acquaintances. Hopefully, I will not need your services in the future, but if I do, you will be the one I call. How I wish I had known of you when I was hit by a car back in 2000. Hope you are well. Good luck. Please send me some more business cards!

I got hit by a drunk driver driving home from a concert one night. My neck, two discs in my spine. My neck twisted, my back twisted, my shoulder. When I first met with Sean he was really nice. He went over everything, made sure I understood everything completely and he was very friendly. I did like working with the medical specialist, Lena was nice and she always was, you know, asking how I was doing and making sure everything was going good. I felt like I was very informed throughout the whole case. Anytime there was something new that came up they always gave me a call. Anything I needed help with they were always there.

I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in December 2008. I was rear-ended on the freeway. I went through physical therapy for about a year and a half. I was finally told that I would have to have a discogram, so I have an artificial disc placed in my neck. I was very educated on the process and what to expect. I was given paperwork when I left the very first day, and I knew what was ahead and I was informed the entire process. Everyone here has been extremely professional. It is a waiting period but the wait is definitely worth it. I am very confident that behind the scenes everyone here was working on my case and in my best interests until the very end and I would strongly recommend this law firm. The people here are just really friendly and I looked forward to the conversations and coming in. It was very much resolved to my satisfaction because it wasn’t a one-time offer from this law firm. They went back again and renegotiated which actually ended up to my advantage.

I’m Denise Dale and I was rear-ended on the freeway. We pulled off and exchanged information and I was pretty much in shock. I didn’t know what to do and I was instantly in pain but I didn’t know what to do about that either. I went home and tried to contact my insurance. I went and saw a chiropractor to deal with my neck pain and the pain I was having in my shoulder from the accident and the opposing insurance was becoming more and more aggressive with me. They were threatening to not process my information if I didn’t give it to them right away. They were calling me names and I got really upset and overwhelmed and that’ when I decided to find a lawyer. I was looking at a lot of different lawyers and I was very picky. I did not want to work with somebody who was going to give me medical advice. I wanted a lawyer who was going to help me and we were going to be a team and I talked to Sean DuBois, and he was incredibly respectful and compassionate. He listened and he treated me like another adult. He did not tell me what to do and he let me know exactly where I stood and whether or not they were going to be able to help me and I felt very grateful for that. He was very ethical and focused on what was realistic which was really important to me too. I had amazing interactions with everyone on staff. I hadn’t anticipated feeling so warm towards them. They were very friendly and very comforting and it really made it a joy to come in actually like even though I was scared and anxious about the deposition and the mediation all the talks on the phone were easy. I wasn’t nervous to call to talk to anybody here. I knew I was going to have a good interaction and that’s really important because you’re going through something incredibly difficult, incredibly stressful and hard and you need a supportive team to do it with you. Sean was amazing. He went through the whole process. He met with me earlier so that we could talk before it started. He worked with the mediator, and the mediator and Sean made sure I understood that was happening and answered all of my questions so I wasn’t in a position of feeling like I was just sitting there and other people were taking care of things for me. I was always an active participant and I was always part of a team and that was so important to me that we worked together to get what was best for me, that I wasn’t just told what to do. And the most amazing thing was that through the mediation Sean made sure to look at what was best for me and even if it wasn’t what was best for him it was he made sure to let me know what I needed and what was right for me and I was really impressed that he would put my needs and what I wanted before his own, which is the mark of a really amazing lawyer if you ask me.

My brother searched the Internet and selected three firms to interview. We were impressed by your honesty and concern during our initial meeting. Friendly, concerned, comfortable. Since we’d never needed to deal with a similar experience, we didn’t know what to expect. Your initial explanations were very helpful. The settlement will allow Dad to remain in his foster home for several more years. A move would be so difficult for him, and prior to receiving your check he only had a few months left at his home.

Looking at this much money, I don’t want to just jump and do something. I want to think it out and see what’s left and go from there. Sean did a really good job of keeping me calm and my wife calm too. It’s a real hard thing to go through. It’s not easy. If I had to go through it again . . . I sure wouldn’t want to go through it again. But if I had to I’d definitely have Sean on my side. I think he did a really awesome job of taking care of us. You ask yourself, with the injuries and stuff that I’ve got to live with the rest of my life, no it’s not worth it. It never will be worth it. But at least this will get us going in a different direction. What’s the one most important thing he could have done differently or better? He did a really awesome job all the way through. I really don’t know anything that he could have done better. He did a really good job all the way through. There was a lot to this. He had all of his Ps and Qs and stuff together. I think he did it right. To be honest with you, when we went into that hearing, I wasn’t expecting that much money. I was expecting a lot less. So we walked out with over $100,000 more than we expected, which is pretty good. It was a real good move for Sean to have all those people there. That was just awesome because everyone knew everyone, and they were all right in tune with what was going on. Sean did a really good job of getting us the money and I’m really happy with it. We can get on with our life now and do what we want to do. We’re going to be having a big barbeque, and you guys are going to have to come up for it.

I feel everyone went above and beyond to help me. I’m happy to say I did not have any negative experiences working with DuBois Law Group. The staff were courteous and friendly. I appreciated the efforts and communication. My expectations were to win this case and we did, so my expectations were fully met. My legal team guided me through every step of the process. This experience can be very uneasy for people in my position, and it wasn’t. So thanks for all of your hard work!

The team seems to be great about customer service – professional service at all times. Everybody did a great job, from phones calls to representation in the court house.

I was on a bike traveling southbound, and was hit by a car. I broke my hip and my hand and had three compression fractures in my back. My case was such that I was referencing many different insurance companies and insurance is tough to deal with. You have so many questions about what’s going on. Just the insurance process – I mean it’s so, it’s such a hard thing. It’s like a game and you don’t understand it. Like there are rules and processes that you just don’t get and I just don’t have the time to understand or figure it all out and it makes sense to get somebody who already does have that information. When I would ask a question I had enough information from Sean to understand what’s going on. Sean came to my house. He sat down with me on my couch (I was on crutches) and he introduced himself to my family and I really felt like he wasn’t just going to be an attorney. He was going to be somebody that cared about what was going to happen in my case. Everyone here was fantastic. I mean, response times were instant – if not, you know, within the day. Any questions that I had were not only followed up right away, if they weren’t answered but they were followed up within a period of time and somebody had an answer for me. Definitely my settlement results were very good compared to what I expected and what I kind of initially formulated in my head.

About two years ago I was involved in a car accident. Actually someone hit me while I was stopped. And due to that accident I had to have an operation on my left shoulder. Because of that, I came to DuBois Law Group for a little bit of help and I couldn’t be happier. The first meeting I had with Sean, I knew that he was real, he was realistic, that he was fair. He is very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of injury related cases. So based upon that initial meeting he really gained credibility right away and I felt that my case was in good hands. So communication with DuBois Law Group generally involved was great. Really nothing lacking there. It was timely, accurate. It was enjoyable and everyone here is very nice, they are very professional at the same time. The response times, the attitudes. I never felt like I was in the dark about anything and I would certainly recommend this firm to anyone that I know. Top notch service across the board. My case is also absolutely in line with what I expected. I’m a realistic person. I think Sean is as well. We definitely got the settlement that we wanted, the settlement Sean and I had talked about quite some time. So absolutely very happy with the settlement we achieved and I think that at the end of the day we’ve got the justice that we wanted. I would just like to say thank you to Sean and the firm here at DuBois Law Group. They did an excellent job and I couldn’t be happier with the results that they provided. Again I would recommend them to anybody.
