Darrell Cochran and Michael McNeil represented me in a case. You couldn't ask for better lawyers. They really are miracle workers. I highly recommend PCVA. They have an amazing team that works like a well oiled machine to help get justice for their clients. PCVA gave me hope again for the first time in my life. If you have an issue give them a call. They are the best in the business.

If there is a positive outcome from this 60 year-old situation, it is the professionalism and courtesy I received from both Pfau Cochran Vertetis Amala PLLC and Panish|Shea|Pavipudi LLP. Making the initial call to Benjamin Watson at PCVA in Seattle, through the interview with Dr. Nolan and concluding with the advanced settlement payment negotiated by Spencer Lucas, Ericka Vasquez, Mariah Ogden and Matthew Freeman. Thank you, Sharon Hubbard

PCVA was so very helpful to me in my personal injury case, which was complicated for various reasons. The team on my case informed me and advised me in such meaningful ways. I was able to soundly make choices that were for the best outcome given difficult circumstances. My case was a most difficult life experience for me to go through and PCVA’s advice, counsel and advocating on my behalf was invaluable.

Response from owner

Paul is a very decent down to earth lawyer. Who has to deal with some of the lowest forms of life. But can manage to turn it off when it needs to be. And still stay focused on the task at hand. A True Gentleman!!!!

Well let's put it this way, I'm McCarrick boy and Cardinal Dolan etc. and my Case went to the Holy See and special victims task force and the Deputy Attorney General, State Police NY, NJ Attorney General Office all In only about a month. They had months and basically accomplished nothing. My Advocate did more than them. Thank you! John Bellocchio and Bishop LaValley.

This Law Firm is of utmost integrity and tenacity they convey the sort of professionalism that I wish everyone in the legal community possessed and conveyed Darrell Cochran is my attorney and I am the lead plaintiff in RN versus Kiwanis International ..Darrell put his time and skill set to work and together with our team held the people responsible for the atrocities they inflicted on children in the 90s to account ,and Darrell continues to spend countless hours holding people in positions of power to account for their transgressions and abuse of children.. this firm ,and Darrell in particular, actually care about the plaintiffs that they represent and I can tell you from a personal standpoint that no one will fight for you harder then this firm .These people are the gold standard of how the legal community should treat their clients. As a plaintiff you know that when PCVA LAW represents you , no insurance company, no state agency, no Corporation is going to bully you into accepting a settlement offer that isn't fair,,PCVA we'll fight for their clients all the way to the hilt that is a guaranteed fact I can tell you from personal experience, it's 110% true .
