Hired Law Firm

At first I was hesitant on going through the whole process of contacting a lawyer and going through the whole process of getting money for my injuries. After reaching out to Dean R, they made the process very easy on me and treated me as a person rather then a client. They not only got results for me, but it as easy as possible for me. I have always looked at lawyers differently until this. They made me believe that there are good ones out there after all!! Thank you and highly recommend.

Brian Laule and his team of dedicated & competent staff made this whole thing so much easier. There were times when I was frustrated with what was happening and Brian always made time to talk to me to explain why it was happening this way. He made sure I understood what was going on, he didn't just leave me guessing. In the end we had a great result and it was because of Brian and his team of professional, knowledgeable, and caring staff. If I ever need an attorney again I'm calling Brian.

I have known Ms. Wells from the beginning of her career. She is a strong advocate for her clients. I would highly recommend Ms. Wells and her law firm. She provides excellent pre-suit and trial experience.

I highly recommend Brian Laule of Bye, Goff, & Rohde to assist with your legal concerns. While on vacation in Minnesota, I was hit from behind while driving my RV on the interstate. Even though the state police ruled the other driver to be completely at fault, I struggled for over six months to get information from my insurance company or the shop that was repairing my RV. It was an extremely frustrating situation. Since I live out of state, I needed to find an attorney to advocate on my behalf. I hired Brian Laule, and it was a great decision. He is compassionate and professional. Brian immediately started to make progress with my case, and he provided me with regular updates of his communications with my insurance company as well as the repair shop. It was the first time in this entire ordeal that I felt like I had someone looking out for my best interests. In the end, Brian was able to secure a satisfactory outcome for my case. Many thanks to Brian Laule. Nelda & Terri

Hired Attorney Robert Parsons

Robert represented me for a car accident I was in that changed my life. Not only did he see the pain that was invisible to others, he fought for me and protected me from the insurance company like a family member would have. While I can never get back the time missed with my family, the feelings of guilt from being a mom in chronic pain and the nights in tears from wishing it would all go away, he gave me what I deserve to be able to move on and continue to heal without the financial burden on my shoulders. I would recommend him over and over again to any loved one. Not only was he honest and compassionate with me, he was aggressive and did not back down to the insurance company. His courteous demeanor and easy going personally made it easy for me to communicate with him, and I felt him and his team were there for me the entire time and did a fantastic job. Thank you.

Hired Attorney Brian F. Laule

Brian is an amazing attorney! He was there for me during a really rough time. I broke my spine in 3 places. Life was so difficult, but he was always willing to help, and listen. I have never experienced such a caring attorney. He isn't just there to make money, he truly seems to care!! Brian is one of a kind, and yes I would highly recommend him to everyone.

Hired Attorney Brian F. Laule

Frustrated, angry, hurt, and confused. These are some of things that I felt after my car accident. Brian and his his team did everything they could to take that all of that away. They always answered any questions that I had and I had a lot. Brian explained everything that was going to happen and how we were going to approach it. With the help of Brian and his knowledgeable, dependable, and caring staff I came out of this almost whole again. I couldn't be happier with the results.

Brian Laule knew I was dreading a trial and found a way to reduce the subrogation claims by my insurance which resulted in a favorable end to my personal injury suit. He and his assistants worked very diligently and quickly responded to my questions and concerns.

Many of the lawyers and staff at Bye, Goff, and Rohde were responsible for helping me get my life back in order after a life changing car accident. I had never hired a lawyer before and was unsure of my decision. I never would have had the endurance or "know how" to handle my case on my own. Bye, Goff and Rohde worked many, many hours to get me a great end result. Thank you!

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
