Testimonial

  • I was rear-ended while driving on I-235 in Des Moines by a semi tractor trailer. The force of the impact drove me into the car in front of me. I contacted Corey's office right away because I wanted to make sure that I was treated fairly by the insurance companies. The crash ended up damaging my knee so that I had to have surgery to repair it. Thankfully, my knee healed up well, but at first the insurance company was being ridiculous. Corey was able to put the pressure on the insurance company and we were able to settle without having to file suit. He even helped me deal with reducing some of the medical bills that were still outstanding because of the car crash. I am glad that I hired Corey right away to help me through my personal injury case. Heath of Ankeny, Iowa (Wellness Director and Football Coach)
  • "...Corey worked hard to get me some compensation from the car accident. While my foot will never be the same again, I am glad that I had Corey in my corner." - Duane of Knoxville, Iowa Duane of Knoxville, Iowa
  • "I’m glad I hired Erik to help me; he answered my questions and kept me up to date on what was happening with my case." -Mike of Bondurant, Iowa Mike of Bondurant, Iowa
  • Before I hired Corey I tried to deal with the insurance company on my own. Even though I injured my shoulder in a car accident which required surgery, the insurance company did not want to pay what my case was worth. Corey met with the surgeon who operated on my shoulder and obtained the medical report we needed. He was able to get the insurance company for the negligent driver to pay their policy limits without filing suit and even got me a good settlement with my own insurance company for underinsured motorist coverage. Corey did a great job for me. Dave of Grinnell, Iowa
