				I want to recommend an outstanding attorney, Craig Dernis. We were involved in a serious car accident in which another driver hit us and completely damaged our vehicle. Our case was especially complicated because the at-fault driver did not have bodily injury coverage. Even though Craig did not take our case, he was there for me from the very beginning. He listened patiently, reviewed our situation carefully, explained our options, guided me step by step, and gave me very important advice for moving forward - all without asking for anything in return. Beyond his professionalism, what touched me the most was his humanity. He was attentive, caring, empathetic, and patient, and he helped calm me down during an extremely stressful and confusing situation. He even took the time to give me additional recommendations that could help me in the future. During a time when I felt like I was dealing with everything almost completely on my own, he was the only person who truly stopped, listened, and helped me from the heart, even though he was under no obligation to do so. I wholeheartedly recommend him. If you are looking for an attorney who is professional, honest, compassionate, and genuinely caring, I highly recommend reaching out to him. Craig, thank you so much for your time, patience, guidance, and kindness. You are truly a fantastic person! ❤️

				Very pleased with the level of service provided by the Craig Dernis and the Collision Law Center.



After I got hit by a driver with a difficult insurance company, Craig doggedly pursued compensation.  It took some time because the courts are slow, but in the end we got a fair settlement.  Craig's fee was very reasonable - in fact I think he undercharged for his service (but don't tell him I said so).

				It was nice to actually talk to a lawyer when I called. He took the time to discuss my case . Although he could not take my case he was upfront with every option.  It was reassuring not to be talked down to , or to be brushed off. He took the time to go through the email that I sent him.   If I happen to need a lawyer again , we will definitely consider Craig’s lol se firm.
