Jim Slater has been our attorney for nigh on 40 years. I remember how he fussed with my husband at first but we learned to trust him and we were all great, great friends. My husband died and I had several things come up and I went back to him. Same Jim after 40 years thoughtful, considerate, confident and friendlyread more

I do not have one negative thing to say about this Law Group! From Randy, to Breanna, and to my attorney John. It isn't often that you are able to speak directly to your attorney but I had the privilege of speaking to him many times. If anyone is seeking a top notch legal team, I highly recommend this Law Group. In my opinion they have hearts, compassion, and pure love of their jobs. I was treated with kindness and the utmost respect. I wasn't just a case file on someone's desk. I know I mattered to them!read more

Contacted these guys after my husband's car accident. They were very helpful and keep in contact with you which is a major thing for us. We had fired his attorney and hired Attorney Buchanan.

Great costumes great team! Thanks.read more

I spent 30 minutes on the phone with a very intelligent, caring guy (I wish I could remember his name). I need to move on in my life but I am afraid to admit my marriage is failed. He walked me through it - like he gave me some vision about being in a better place. I'll definitely call him when I get everything together.read more

Slater & Zurz is an excellent firm. I was assisted by John Lynette. He was always on top of things and made sure to help protect my family and I. He's very easy to work with and easy to communicate with. I had gotten into two different auto accident. One being a hit and run, the other a car rear ended our van and totaled it. John helped my family in both cases to make sure we were taken care. The case where we got rear ended took kind of long is because the people that were at fault, their attorney took forever on their end, but John went above and beyond to talk to those other attorneys and got them to hurry up and settled our case quickly. Thank You John Lynette. Ben and Nouread more

Really, these guys have YOUR best interest in mind from start to finish. I was impressed! Thanks Rob!!read more
