Customer Reviews

I was badly injured in a car accident, and John Rice was recommend to me. I was skeptical of lawyers thinking they were just working for the money. I have never been so wrong. John and his team are the most professional, caring law firm out there. John took care of everything for me, and made this difficult time easier. He really makes you feel like family! I am thrilled with my settlement that I have received through John's hard work. I really don't think there's a lawyer out there who could do it better. He really does specialize in ICBC cases, and will fight to the end for you. I will recommend John, and his team to anyone I ever meet needing a lawyer. I have so much respect for this law firm as they took care of me at my most vulnerable time.
zach, Past Client
Mike was recommended to me for my auto injuries. When he took me on as a client, I came away from the initial meeting feeling totally comfortable with my choice. Mike put me at ease and laid out a game plan. His supporting team were gracious, respectful and great to deal with as well. I could always reach Mike or his associates either through emails, phone calls, or if necessary, in person. Mike was very thorough and helpful as he guided me along my journey especially during the ‘discovery’ stage then final negotiations. I always felt I was in good hands with Mike and a positive outcome would result. He was caring, diligent and a tough negotiator. A great person and firm to have in your corner.
Allan, past Client
I consulted with Mallory Hogan regarding a complex medical issue affecting my family. While litigation ultimately wasn’t the right path, Mallory was incredibly compassionate, thoughtful, and clear in explaining the legal realities and appropriate next steps. I felt genuinely heard and supported throughout the process, and I appreciated her honesty and professionalism.
