Testimonial

I feel Cameron is the perfect fit for this type of job. He comes across very clearly so you understand what is going on. He cares about us and always shows empathy and compassion.

From all my dealings, he advised me, he talked to me, there were hard conversations to be had at times, but he was ALWAYS respectful of me and my feelings.

At the mediation he and the barrister negotiated, and I felt and had no doubt whatsoever that they both had my back and when the heat was really on, they got as much as they could for me.

This compensation outcome is life changing for me and I owe it all to Cameron and the law firm. This will set me on a path for me to now enjoy the rest of my life.

Testimonials

“Arnold Thomas and Becker represented me in helping me with my TAC claim.

The service provided and result they obtained well exceeded any expectation.

My phone calls were always returned. I consistently received clear and informative updates and advice.

The TAC made a final offer before my case was about to go to hearing and I was not happy with it.

Arnold Thomas and Becker fought for my rights in court for five days and I got a jury verdict for compensation which was well over $100,000.00 greater than the TAC’s final offer.

I am very happy with my solicitor Larry Dent and would recommend them to all of my friends and family.”
