Report
Schurmer and Wood represented me after I was involved in a car accident. From first contact with the office staff to meeting with Lauren Wood and Earl Schurmer to go over details of my accident, I was immediately impressed with the knowledge, care, and follow up regarding my case. They made me feel like my case was their number one priority.
Schurmer and Wood arranged for me to seek medical treatment, physical therapy, and have my vehicle repaired so I could quickly return to my normal life. After all my treatment was complete they reached out often giving me status updates and clearly explaining
