When I got into a car accident it was already alot for me to emotionally deal with. finding a lawyer who actually cared about me and my situation was almost harder then the accident was for me. But Brielle hunt was someone who actually wanted to be involved on helping me, my case, and caring about the affects this caused for me and my family. She looked out for my best interest every step of the way is someone I'd recommend to anyone who's looking for someone who's more then just your average lawyer.
If you're looking for your sign, if you're questioning who's best for representing YOUR STORY, pick Brielle! Shes the perfect woman for the job! I'll always be grateful for her help making my story be heard.

I can't say enough about the law firm of Phelan Petty, PLC they did a fantastic job for me, they went above and beyond what was expected and I truly appreciated all their hard work, if it wasn't for Mike and his hard working team I would not have received the settlement that I have, it's not often you get the maximum amount from an insurance co. but Mike made sure that's exactly what happened and I'm truly thankful for it I cannot thank him enough for all that his firm did for me Theda

Mr. Petty and Mr. Phelan were amazing lawyers for our family. They helped us get peace and justice for the loss of our love one by a reckless medical practitioner.
