Adam

Vince, Karen and the entire TBM team were beyond what my family could have ever hoped for. They didn’t need to take on our case but did and fought as hard for us “little guys” as they would a bigger client.



It was incredible to watch true professionals fight for our family and what was right. They brought us in, treated us like family and stood by us the entire way. 10/10 would recommend Vince, Karen and their team any day of the week.”

Greg C.

“If only I could give Thorsnes Bartolotta McGuire 1,000 stars, I would! I was part of a medical malpractice suit against a very unscrupulous physician. TBM did an outstanding job representing us. They are professional, friendly and approachable. I had many questions, but they were always there for me and responded to my messages promptly. I HIGHLY recommend this firm!”
