Jamie's Story
I love that I have Mike on my side, whenever I question what am I supposed to do? I used to call my dad and after my dad passed, even for things that aren’t always law related, I know I could still call Mike, and I love that about him. He’s just amazing, and I know that if I send somebody here that they’re going to be represented a hundred percent.


Sam's Story
He gives you the impression there’s a person you can count on, a person that you can rely on in terms of having some representation. He kept me informed, he kept me up to date with everything that was going on throughout the process. What doctor, what appointments, who I have to see…I was always very well informed.

I absolutely recommend.
From the moment I retained Kaitlin McCaffrey, she is fast, efficient, and incredibly professional. She was able to get a replevin filed within 24hrs and secured an emergency injunction in less than a week—What truly stood out to me was how she recognized the deep personal importance of my dog, even though the law classifies pets as property. She didn’t just treat this as another case; she understood the urgency and emotional weight behind it [...] with Ms. McCaffrey, I genuinely feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders with her on my case. I absolutely recommend.
They care.
First time experience: very professional, everyone is so sweet here, and really shows they care. Will definitely be back or recommend to friends and family.
Above and beyond.
Michael and Anthony went above and beyond for me! They took on a case I thought wouldn’t go anywhere, and they helped me a lot! If I could give them 10 stars out of 5, I would!

Great experience.
Great experience, they were amazing.
Your dedication to your clients is truly admirable.
When my mother required legal representation, we turned to van der Veen, Hartshorn, Levin & Lindheim, and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. What sets them apart from other law firms is their unwavering commitment to their client. Attorney Bruce Castor's passion for his work and genuine concern for my mother's well-being were truly remarkable. He pursued the case with relentless determination, even when the defendants tried to ignore us and refused to respond. If they thought dragging the process out would make Bruce drop the case, they thought wrong. Thank you, Bruce Castor and van der Veen, Hartshorn, Levin & Lindheim, for your exceptional advocacy, professionalism, and the outstanding outcome you achieved for my mother. Your dedication to your clients is truly admirable, and I will be forever grateful for your assistance.

This is a great group of people, and they have a great interest in assisting you in any way possible. I appreciate Jerry and the entire firm greatly. Thank you guys!

Wonderful experience with this law firm after getting hit last summer. The whole staff is on top of things and communicates. Special shoutout to Erica, who always answers phone calls with a smile, Marcus, who came to me after the accident for intake, and the attorney Brian, who handled my case and negotiated my medical bills. I was able to get the care/treatment I needed with minimal stress because MTV handled it all!

Very professional, prepared and determined.
Attorney Richard Coble is very professional, prepared and determined to get the best possible outcome for your situation.

Definitely would recommend!!
Absolutely awesome!
Attorney Richard Coble was absolutely awesome! My husband was in a bit of a bind, and Richard rumbled the charges with a concise knowledge of the law and literally sat with my husband for a great deal of time to gain all the info needed and to inform my husband of every detail of his case! He was back home safe and free of all charges! Richard was amazing.
5 stars team!
I have been using this firm for 2 years for my child custody case. Going into the office I was so nervous, however, upon arrival was greeted with a friendly face and offered water, tea and coffee, which I greatly appreciated. I was introduced to each member of the law group and was appointed Daniel Devlin. Handing over my stacks of papers Mr. Devlin promptly got out his pen and pad and sorted through my files and we talked. I became more at ease and relaxed feeling good to know he was not only listening but empathetic to my situation. I left feeling like I could jump kick the air and sing in the rain. During scheduled court appearances, Mr. Devlin was always punctual and gave me updates a couple of days before court and always before entering the court room. He was professional and I was elated to reach an agreeable outcome. He was not there for the work but he was on my side! I will always and forever be indebted to them. There is no price on the work that he’s done. I will continue to refer and be a voice to my friends in need because if you’re looking for an attorney like Dan, this is the place for you! Thank you all for your hard work I know he did not do this alone. I give this team 5 stars!
They are very professional, exceptional, and caring.

Very thankful for all their hard work, they will fight for you and get you what you deserve! I’m thankful to Kelly and Michael for keeping us updated on the status of our case. Very efficient!

Both professional and friendly.
The staff was both professional and friendly, and the COVID protocol was tight. I really appreciate the wise counsel I received from Mr. Bruce Castor, who reviewed every aspect of my situation and invited an associate in the office to join us in our meeting with an area of expertise that I needed. After Mr. Castor listened, he advised me on my options & quickly addressed my immediate concern before I even got home. He helped to save me money and followed up with encouragement & support.
The service was really great.
Brian and Neysa were very helpful to me when I needed them. Most anything I didn’t understand, they got my back. I’m so appreciative of what you guys have done for me. The service was really great, and I was satisfied with it. Thanks to you guys for everything.
Ethical and down-to-earth.
The man is beyond great. I have had enough good and bad to know over the years. He is professional, suave, ethical, and down-to-earth. He can make a phone call and poof! Magical touch. Amazing! He represented my son on false charges against him, and needless to say, - withdrawn. God bless you, Mr. Capone.
Helped dismiss my charges completely.
Richard Coble did a marvelous job of getting in and getting work done at the court, and helped dismiss my charges completely.
