"I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your diligent and professional representation.
Thanks to your efforts I was able to recover from a tragic experience and turn my life around for the best. Not only did your work bring me the financial ability to pay for the remainder of my education and help me achieve an advanced professional degree, but the benefits of your advice helped me recover emotionally and helped me in choosing a career.
There is no better example of this than the assistance you provided me in completing my Senior Undergraduate Thesis on Aviation Disaster Law. The materials and counseling you provided helped me in my effort to petition the Federal Aviation Administration for tougher laws on emergency exit row seating and runway safety.
Do not hesitate to contact me should you require additional references."
"It is with great pleasure that I offer a letter of recommendation for Mr. John Greaves and this law firm. Initially, I had reservations of having representation following the Korean Airlines crash in Guam, which resulted in the death of my 24-year-old son.
It took one phone call to the office to convince me that they could handle the “delicate nature” of this case with their expertise, credentials, and experience with airline disasters. We were fortunate to have chosen this office as they provided a caring atmosphere and a focus to details while compiling thorough research into my son’s life and history. The office staff displayed professionalism and courtesy while dealing with a grieving, angry father.
My wife and I want to express deepest gratitude to John Greaves and his paralegal, Nidia, who spent countless hours on the phone “walking us through” the deposition process, legal details, and giving regular updates informing us of the progress and activities of the case.
To summarize, the office upheld my respect with sincere sensitivity and did not forget my son. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr. John Greaves and this law firm to others who experience such a horrific tragedy."
"With the crash settlement finalized and the payoff delivered it appears our work together has been completed.
In light of this, I have drafted this letter of appreciation for all the hard work you and your firm did on my behalf. During the course of our association, all matters relating to this case were handled with obvious expertise, professionalism and attention to detail. This extra effort showed off in the settlement amount that was far higher than I believe either one of us was thinking of at the start of this case.
During the start of the process, I personally met with all the major legal firms dealing with this kind of issue. After this I came away with the impression that Baum Hedlund was the best, but they were also the cheapest. This is not a normal combination, best, and cheapest. However, after working with you and your firm I now understand how your firm put this together and made it work for their clients.
A special thank you to Cynthia for all the extra time and effort she put forward on the paperwork side of the case. I saw a mountain of it during this time, but I’m sure it was only the tip of the iceberg. This is not the fun and interesting side of the legal profession (paperwork) but she made it easy.
If anyone were unfortunate enough to go through a plane crash I would not hesitate to highly recommend you and your firm for handling the legal issues and settlement negotiations.
Again thank you for your efforts on my behalf they are much appreciated. Please feel free to call if you need anything else."
"You have been in my life for two or three years and I am most happy about my choice of a sincere, intelligent, capable, and kind human being for our attorney.
My son and five of his friends were tragically killed when their small, chartered plane crashed. Further, we could not locate the plane or our sons for a week. The hardest week and year of my life. I share this experience with my son’s dad and siblings and the families of the “Six Friends.” We explored legal representation and chose your firm. You had good credentials and an excellent reputation.
That you work very hard and keep in contact is very important to me. That you listen to my opinions and hear what I say is very important to me. And most important is your sympathetic and understanding staff who assist you with the case, your diligent preparation of all aspects of our suit, my open access to your firm to get my questions answered, and the prompt responses to my questions. I appreciate that you care about how I feel and that you take time to use your talents to ensure your every contact with me is warmly professional.
I take considerable care to share my experience as often as possible."
"I want to pass on my personal thanks to your staff for the devoted support that you have provided me over the past couple of years. Since that terrible day [the day of the accident] I have experienced a mixed bag of emotions about how everything should fold out as I continue to grasp at how life as a survivor will be.
The task hasn’t been easy as one may expect. From standing in front of a mirror, hours after the crash, to interacting with my co-workers, friends, and family there was a need for support. This support came in many forms: Family, Friends, Medical Treatment, and eventually Legally.
Your firm impressed me from the day your informational pamphlet showed up at my door along with many others. If standing out from the rest, not due to a nice cover however it built my trust through personal recommendations from people just like myself, and the level of expertise within the firm.
One individual, in particular, was John Greaves who was able to apply a personal touch through his experiences as a commercial airline pilot. John once told me that he left commercial aviation due to the problems he encountered regarding safety practices. This comment sparked interest in him personally as a former airline pilot-gone lawyer. He proved to me that there are knights in shining armor in the aviation world, unfortunately, most of those are now lawyers with a mission to make our skies safer.
John of course wasn’t the only person to assist me with my case however; there is a foundation of legal and administrative support staff that has provided me with the support that I was blessed with.
Please feel free to pass on my personal information to those who may require your firm’s services in the future.
Once again thank you from my family and me."
"I would like to express my profound gratitude to those at Wisner Baum that I have had the pleasure to work with since the airline accident in which I was involved. Although I recognize some of you only by phone voice, I’ve gotten to know many of you personally over the past several months.
During this very stressful and difficult time in my life, your firm was there to help give support and guidance in the daily legal decisions, which had to be made. Your expertise in this field gave me the utmost trust and confidence in your abilities.
I appreciate you respecting my private-life needs and concerns in the aftermath of this highly visible accident. I wanted a fair settlement within an appropriate time frame, and without any public scrutiny. With your hard work and dedication, we were able to achieve those goals.
If I can ever be of any assistance to you or your clients, please don’t hesitate to call. I would be most happy to recommend your firm to anyone wishing personal, timely, and fair representation."
