HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Can't say enough about Tom and his handpicked team! The best at what they do! Tom can win a trial with his opening ALONE! My family cannot express more gratitude for the relief provided and daylight seen at the end of an unthinkable nightmare.

Carolyn F. Hillyard

Westlake Legal group is the best at what they do. Thomas Plofchan is, in my opinion, by far the best lawyer in the state. He doesn't mess around and gets the job done. You're in very good hands with any lawyer from that firm. I HIGHLY recommend them... it will ease your worries.

Michael Fonseca

I've Known Mr. Plofchan for a long time now, and am fortunate that I haven't needed his services again until just now. Everyone in the office was very nice, and my conversation with Mr. Plofchan went exceptionally well. He has prior experience that will prove beneficial in my case. Would highly recommend.

Mike Delaney
