Blake Bauer won my case! He never stopped caring for me as HIS client. He treated me with compassion. When I felt down, he was always there for me. My case was regarding carbon monoxide poisoning from employment. This went on for a year and a half. I was denied benefits and Blake Bauer fought for me and my rights as an employee. He never backed down and knew my rights. When things would go a certain way from opposing council, with his knowledge he would fight back and he won my case!!!! I would not look anywhere else for an attorney but this gentleman!! Blake Bauer is everything you will need for an attorney! I am blessed. Thanks Blake ❤️
Blake was trustworthy and very knowledgeable. Blake's expertise helped me get a proper decision that alone I would have not achieved..strongly recommend Thank you Blake and all that assisted me at Feilds law firm
Blake put me at ease with his plan in how to submit and win my appeal. I had spoke to several other attorney firms and Fields Law firm gave me the best advice and confidence. I valued his honesty and prior experience. He won my case and I am very thankful!
The staff were responsive and professional. They communicated with me whenever it was necessary. When Brent and Sarah needed to communicate, they sent text and email in order to make sure the information was received.
Working with Blake was phenvery professional and respectful. He knows what he is doing. He made sure he got me compensated for my workplace injury even though my employer was trying to make it hard. Thanks Blake
Fields Law helped us with an 18 month battle against The Hartford. Without the aid of Fields Law, we would have lost pretty much everything (our house, cell phones, car, pets). Granted we had to find other financial assistance during the 18 month battle, but we knew there was success in our future. Thank you to Blake and the Fields Law team!
Knows his stuff. If he didn't have the answer, he found it quick. Good at explaining things. Promptly returs phone calls. Hope to never have a work comp case again. If I do I know who I'm calling..
Blake picked up my case halfway through and without any delay was able to keep my case moving forward right it to a win. Even the smallest of questions was answered promptly and with excellent explanations. He didn't polish up the possible end result, he gave me straight forward answers with multiple ways we go move forward and always had my best interest in mind. Having Blake take over my case was like trading the mascot and getting Wayne Gretzky in return!
Blake Bauer with Fields law firm, helped guide me through a successful case in which the long term disability transition from short term had been denied. Over the course of the case he explained all the legal information in a way that was understandable for me, he spelled out what to expect, what options we had and helped me fully understand the consequences of each choice. We successfully navigated the case and I would recommend Fields law to anyone needing a starting point even if its just to ask. They helped me from start to finish and they deserve all the recommendations even if we had not won. They made me feel like I mattered regardless of the potential outcome and that was worth more than the outcome in my opinion.
