I was labeled catastrophic and received a traumatic brain injury from a car hitting me as a pedestrian. In recovery while staying in numerous hospitals, institutes and the list goes on for TBIs, I saw a few patients with similar status as mine go on and commit suicide. Peter and Jessica helped me every step of the way through this lawsuit. During mediation, if I wanted something done they stepped back and informed me of any sort of consequences with my actions. They again asked my approval then proceeded, with receiving more than I was informed about at the beginning. I highly recommend them.

"I think [Nelligan O'Brien Payne] is fortunate to have such a skilled lawyer and dedicated individual join the firm. I would certainly contact you again. I would also refer anyone else who needed assistance into your more than capable hands". - TC

I have had the great pleasure of being represented, as the plaintiff, by Peter in a lawsuit culminating in an arduous six week out-of-town trial. It was a complicated multi-million dollar lawsuit against a large US Corporation. Essentially, it was a David versus Goliath endeavour. With Peter’s skills and stewardship, we prevailed.

Peter’s in depth knowledge of the file, command of the issues and experienced decorum in the courtroom were invaluable and readily apparent as well as a great source of comfort during such a stressful time.

Hopefully, I will not encounter such a conflict again but, if I did, Peter would be the first call. It is difficult to put in writing the extreme value of being represented by someone of Peter’s caliber including his dedication, intelligence, stamina and extensive “in court” experience. I believe one must view legal expenses as an investment from a cost-benefit perspective. I have no doubt that hiring Peter is one of the very best investments I have ever made.

It is difficult to to put into words just how grateful my family and I are for the knowledge, assistance and guidance while working with Peter and his team. They all worked tirelessly to ensure my family was receiving the best care and treatment possible. They treated us with respect and always made sure we understood the process along the way.

"You will always be my go to for corporate work."

After being badly injured in a catastrophic car accident, I was lost, confused and completely without guidance. I felt like my life had been stolen! I was dealing with loss in my family, my own inabilities as well as the overwhelming emotional toll of the accident itself.

Peter and his team came in and helped me through the confusion by covering all details in a simple way, and using explanations that I could easily understand. With Peter’s help, I was able to advocate for, appropriately finance and personally accept my physical and intellectual needs. Not only did Peter make me feel comfortable and supported, but he made me feel like I was part of his family.

I am so fortunate to have had Peter on my side – as legal support and most importantly, as a friend.
