Because both his grandfathers worked extremely hard in less-than-ideal environments, Jay has great empathy for those who get hurt on the job.

I felt that their office represented me very well with a very difficult people to deal with. The process took a long time but at the end they were able to close the deal. I want to thank you for the support and ability to answer any and all questions I had during this process. They were patient with me and made it worth reaching out to them.

Russ Haugen did an exceptional job handling my case. For the most part, he answered all of my questions before I had the chance to ask. Anything else I needed, he was quick to respond. He found additional compensation that I was due. This alone, let me know that he was taking good care of me.
I am very satisfied with the outcome of my case and would certainly call Russ again for any similar needs. I was a referral from another of Russ’ clients; and I, myself, will not hesitate to recommend his services if ever the opportunity arises. Many thanks to Russ and Stephanie.

Excellent Law firm! Russell Haugen represented me, and he was absolutely amazing! He always checked on me and answered every phone call regarding my concern we settled for way more than I expected! He’s kind and considerate! I highly recommend Russell! He won’t let you down and God forbid but if I were to get injured again he’d be the first one that I’d call!!

I was one of those guys that thought WC insurance would take care of me without legal representation. Then one day in the middle of being treated they closed my case without warning. When I questioned the WC insurance agent I caught her in a blatant lie and contacted Russell Haugen at my wife's recommendation. He quickly got the case re-opened and… ended up getting me a total knee replacement. I was also awarded a settlement and money set aside in case any further treatment is required.5 and a half years from the injury to settling the case. Highly recommended,

After the 2 1/2 years it took to settle my case, these lawyers took it upon themselves to make decisions, without my approval or even speaking to me first, that cost me an additional $13,000. Their decisions meant that they took more of the settlement than I received. I had the opportunity to stay with one of their partners when he left the firm but I stuck with them. Big mistake! I highly suggest you find a different firm that has your best interest at heart, as this firm does not.

After 2 1/2 years, this firm finally settled my personal injury suit. A partner was my initial attorney and he didn't know how to "monetize my case" (his words). It seemed he wanted me to do the work for him. Once he was let go or quit the firm, I was placed with two new attorneys. They finally got my case settled for $50,000. Good news? Nope! They decided to take it upon themselves to contact my bankruptcy trustee to inform them of the settlement even tho I supplied them with my discharge papers and my bankruptcy attorney had told them that there was no legal basis to do so since

Dexter (DJ) Evans was incredible at handling my auto-accident case and provided constant communication about any questions or concerns I had. I would highly recommend him and the Woodruff law firm to my friends/family. If I ever need an attorney again I will most definitely be calling Dexter. Thank you for your genuine and professional help with everything in my case the past couple years- I am highly confident in your work!
