I was severely bitten by a dog and have some significant physical damage. After becoming discouraged with speaking to other Law offices who told me they either didn't feel I had a case, or who wanted me to do all the leg work in putting my case together, I was ready to give up. A few months later I thought I'd try again. I found the website for Van Dorn & Curtiss and decided to give them a call. I was contacted by Kristin Ross, Esq. who listened to my story and took the time to speak with me about it. She explained everything I needed to know and answered the questions I could think of at that time. I immediately knew that I wanted her to handle my case. Kristin and her outstanding Legal Assistant, Shelby Harris kept me informed the entire time. I felt at ease knowing that I was in good hands. I never knew Attorney's could be so compassionate and really do care about their clients, until now. They worked hard on my behalf. They kept their costs down, they talked to insurance companies who I needed to pay bills to and were able to get them to bring their bills down for me. They made sure I got more of a settlement than I had even expected. Kristin and Shelby are a Dynamic Duo within the Law Offices of Van Dorn & Curtiss. I highly recommend them and any of their colleague's, because I can see that the standards in this law office are set high for their clients. I can't say enough. I was blessed to have found them.

This office was amazing and thorough when I was injured/bitten by a dog. Kristin Ross and her personal assistant Shelly Vizena were very professional and accomodating. I feel very comfortable in saying that my case was treated in the best hands and with a very positive outcome.

I would highly recommend Van Dorn and Curtiss to everyone, but I can't do that without adding Shelley to the recommendation! They are a highly professional, diligent, thorough group of people who have gone above and beyond to see us through our lawsuit. Shelley is amazing! My calls and emails have been answered promptly from the beginning. I was involved in a motor vehicle accident where I suffered a head injury. My job was to get to my appointments and take care of myself. This office took on the entire burden of everything else related to my case and offered direction and support for the medical challenges I continue to face. They certainly EARNED every penny.

I've had a great pleasure working with this office. From the first day of meeting Robin I knew that I was in good hands. The capability of this law firm is intense. Shelly the paralegal is amazing and extremely knowledgeable, she will walk you trough everything step by step. They stand behind their clients 100%. Our settlements were unimaginable. I cannot imagine anyone else representing me or my family. Highly recommended !!

On behalf of Katie Lynch-- My name is Katie and I was 22 years old when I was hit by an elderly motor vehicle driver with Alzheimer’s Disease. I was overwhelmed by the entire situation and was unsure of what to do. My mother began looking into hiring a lawyer when she came across the Law Firm of Van Dorn & Curtiss. My mother set up an appointment to meet with a lawyer named Kristin and much to my surprise she would be driving two hours north to meet us at my home. Kristin arrived, a young woman with a big beautiful smile and a warm personality. I felt very comfortable being in my own environment during our initial meeting and it was not long into our conversation when I decided I would like her to represent me in my case. Kristin was knowledgeable, caring, and most of all down to earth. My case was open for nearly three years due to the fact that I was still receiving medical treatment related to the accident. During that time Kristin kept me informed and I never had to wonder where my case was going or what the next step would be, she was 1,000 steps ahead of me! I would receive all types of correspondence and phone calls from her and her friendly assistant Amy keeping me up-to-date with all information big or small regarding my case. During this whole process one of my primary medical providers decided not to represent me legally in my case and I began to lose hope and thought the case was in jeopardy. In the meantime Kristin, although surprised by this, did not let it phase her and kept crusading on my behalf with a dedicated heart and a fierce tenacity. To make a long story short I eventually ended up settling out of court for what I felt was a fair amount for what had happened to me in the accident. At no point did Kristen push me to settle. She was there offering me guidance and always made it clear that if I wanted to take my case to court that we would do that. After the mediation process was complete and an agreement was reached, my settlement was processed by Kristin in less than two weeks. I am fortunate to say that I met many decent professionals in the work of legal practice and during the duration of my personal injury case I have become a wiser and more informed person. The personnel at the Law Offices of Van Dorn & Curtiss are not only professionals, they are nice people. Not only would I go back to them, I would refer them to everyone I could! As far as Kristen goes I consider myself lucky, not only do I have a great friend, I also have a great lawyer. Thank you to all who worked on my case and for surpassing my expectations.
