Reseñas
★★★★★
“I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Horton and Mendez! I had been in a horrible bicycle accident because of an unsafe work zone. I called several attorneys and felt no one was taking me seriously until I spoke to Nick Mendez. He took the time to explain how civil law works in North Carolina and the burden of proof. I felt as ease immediately. My case was then handed over to Devlin Horton. He understood that cycling in a club is more than exercise and that my whole life had been upended. Devlin and his team methodically built a solid case that resulted in an outstanding settlement before trial. I could not have been more pleased.”

“If you want a lawyer that truly cares about you and listens to your concerns directly. This is the top firm to hire! My lawyer Nick Mendez and his paralegal Mrs. Christine were there to help me every step of the way when I was injured in a car accident. When I had questions, they were very prompt to answer. I can’t say enough good things about this firm. Thank you so much for everything.”

“Nick and his team were an enormous help when I got into my wreck. They handled every aspect from dealing with the insurance companies to handling the medical bills that were piling up, until the case was resolved. I was more happy with the resolution Nick and his team worked so diligently to achieve and have referred several people to them since. Thank you, Nick and your remarkable team!!”
