If you have been injured at work, Sam is the guy you need to call. I had no idea what to expect but he talked me through it all. His paralegal, Ashley, was also so sweet and constantly checked on me. Thank your help!

My husband used Sam after his car accident. The process was stressful but he eased my husbands anxiety and worked with his schedule to meet with him. Ashley helps Sam and she would always call to check in on my husband after his appointments. I thought that was so sweet and she always remembered.

Sam put his all into the case he was hired for. Sam is extremely knowledgeable and worked very hard to get everything I was entitled to. The company I worked for when I was injured did not make it easy and Sam never gave up. Sam is an excellent attorney and I would definitely recommend him to other people, infact I have already referred a neighbor to Sam and he took the case ,

In 2019 After being involved in A Car incident that was not my fault , I found myself in a bad position . Not only was I unable to work due to being injured in the accident , I no longer had transportation. The vehicle I had recently got financed was totaled from the collision . To Be completely honestly I had no idea what to do or where to even start. I spoke with the Person that hit me insurance company and they offered me money that was not even enough to cover all my Losses . luckily I declined the offer and I immediately called Stewart Law. and Spoke with Sam Bass. He wanted no money up front to represent me which was really helpful at the time. Sam and His Team Handled everything for me . My Vehicle was Payed Off , I Got The Right Medical Treatment for my Injuries. I also was Compensated for my Lost Wages from being unable to work. Plus he got me Compensated enough to Get Me Another Vehicle . Thank You Sam & your Team!! y'all was A Blessing at a time when I really needed one .

In life it's hard finding a great attorney that will work on your behalf as a person that has been injured by a company that doesn't care. I've spent many hours searching for a great attorney when I was injured on the job and out of all the attorneys I've spoke with, Attorney Sam Bass was the only one I can say was great in understanding me as a person and as an injured person that needed help navigating through the system to get medical attention. He was knowledgeable, professional, compassionate, responsive, organized and so much more that I can go on and on, but what stood out the most for me is that he listened to my concerns and if I have any questions, he didn't hesitate to give me a call back regardless of how many times I called, he was there to assist. This is what I think makes a great attorney stand out from an average attorney. Thank you so much Attorney Bass for your hard work and dedication towards my case.

My interaction with Sam never felt like lawyer and client relationship. It felt like a family member helping out another family member. He was always there to answer any questions we had. If he had other clients we never knew because he made us feel like we were always the only one. Sometime I wish the case was still going on because I miss him but he still check in every now and then.

Sam was always very personable but professional while handling my case. As busy as he seemed to me he was always on top of what was going on with my case. I felt a very personal quality to his services.
