Hired Attorney Timothy A. Loranger

Mr. Loranger was extremely professional throughout the entirety of my case. One of the things I liked most was how accessible and communicative Mr. Loranger was at nearly any time of day or night. Call or text, it was very convenient for me. Any questions or concerns I had felt prioritized and answered within 24 hours. This was my first time needing legal help and Mr. Loranger made sure I was always updated and aware of each step of the legal process. Should I ever need legal help again, I will be sure to seek out Mr. Loranger.

 
Response from Timothy A. Loranger

Hired Attorney Pedram Esfandiary

Mr. Esfandiary worked with me a lot very early on in my case. From my deposition, to speaking on television about the case, Mr. Esfandiary was always well-spoken and professional. He was easily reachable via text, call, and email which made communication a breeze. I would without a doubt recommend Mr. Esfandiary to another friend or family member, as well as come back should I find myself needing more legal help.

Hired Attorney Monique Alarcon

Ms. Alarcon was present to represent me a lot of the times when I was doing interviews during this case. She seemed to handle a lot of the media focused tasks presented in front of me during this time. She is very professional and very well spoken. She was easily reachable via text, call, or email which made for very quick and easy communication. My overall satisfaction with Ms. Alarcon is very high. I would recommend her to any family member, or friend, as well as hire her again in the future should I need to.

Baum Hedlund's reputation for excellence in the product liability arena is well founded. I have life changing medical issues as the result of a toxic substance that is made by a huge international company. Nothing can change that, but thanks to the tireless efforts and tenacious determination of BH I received a settlement that will help me get through whatever challenges lie ahead. The entire process was handled professionally, and my case manager was always responsive and there when I needed her. I'm forever grateful.

Hired Attorney Timothy A. Loranger

To know Mr. Timothy Loranger is to know what a true attorney is and should be. Our journey took more than 4 years of litigation. The pain and anguish caused to me and my family by the hands of The United States Government, will never fade. What will last and will be forever in my thoughts is the support and advocacy Mr. Timothy Loranger brought to my case. He is a powerful advocate, knowledgeable and above all, deeply cares about the human beings involved in each and every one of his cases.

Hired Attorney Michael L. Baum

I was very pleased with the legal team at Wisner Baum. From our first phone consultation, everything was explained to me in terms I could easily understand. Although there were bumps along the way, I felt like the overall case was seamless. This is mainly due to our paralegal, Danielle. Danielle was not only extremely knowledgeable, but she was highly sensitive and supportive throughout the case. She made herself available to speak with me at any hour of the day or night—and I do mean ANY hour. Danielle made certain I was aware of what was happening during all of the phases of the case and listened to all of my concerns. As a matter of fact, I would reach out to her during the heights of trauma (from the circumstances of the case) to ask for her help. She always patiently and compassionately obliged.

Hired Attorney Michael L. Baum

I cannot praise the law firm of Wisner Baum highly enough. I contacted them about taking my case because the previous firm’s performance was less than satisfactory, and I’m being considerate in my assessment. First off, they are caring and compassionate. I noticed that from the start. My paralegal/case manager, Danielle English, was on the case from the get-go. She patiently listened to my story and my concerns. She emails me frequent case updates. If I have any questions, she is always available for a call and responds quickly to email. Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly endorse this firm, as well as acknowledging Danielle for her exceptional support.
