Douglas is an excellent lawyer. He is a professional lawyer with great knowledge and dependability. He is someone I am very grateful for all he has done for me. He represented me in a breach of contract case and won. I am so glad he is my lawyer.

Excellent Orange County Attorney Douglas Borthwick was extremely instrumental in having a civil frivolous lawsuit against us dismissed. Mr. Borthwick is a good listener and is very good at returning phone calls and emails. Without getting into the fine details of our case, Mr. Borthwick was able to keep us informed of every step of the case. For those that have ever been presented with a frivolous lawsuit it can be very stressful and frustrating. Once we learned that the case was being dismissed for lack of merit we were overjoyed that such an ordeal was over. Since then we have not hesitated to refer family and friends to attorney Borthwick. Moreover, we would not hesitate reaching out to him if ever confronted again with such a suit. I highly recommend Doug to anyone looking to hire an attorney in Orange County.

Douglas is the Attorney I assigned to me by the Law Offices of Sasha Tymkowics and couldn't be any happier with this decision as he has been extremely helpful in my questions and doubts on my case. I definitely would recommend him to to another, Thank you Douglas.

Douglas came in and took great care of me and my case. I am so grateful for his legal skills and for being there for me. I am thrilled with him. Douglas always took my calls. He understood and tried hard to understand what I was going though; he has great empathy. He's my guy.

I retained the services of Mr. North wick recently and I could be more happier with the outcome. Mr. Borthwick is a very skilled and experienced attorney and he kept me updated at all times on the progress of my case. I highly recommend Mr. Borthwick to anyone in need of a very good attorney. Thank you again, Doug.

Great value and results. Douglas defended me in a lawsuit where I was wrongly sued in an auto collision case. The case against me was dismissed. He was great every step of the way.
