Testimonials

Michael Anderson:

Mr. Todd Julian is an outstanding associate at Burch & Cracchiolo. Todd took the time to explain everything and to ease my stress through a complicated 3 1/2 year ordeal. I absolutely had no idea what it was like to deal with lawyer’s, be sued in civil court and as an adult, it was really a new kind of fear. Mr. Julian’s professionalism and outstanding character gave me the feeling that he “had my back”. So Todd, I want to say thank you, for what you did for me and for my life.

R.H. McKelvey:

I was very satisfied working along with Todd Julian and Bucky Slomski, in which was an emotional time. They were always quick to get back with me and keep me informed. They spoke to you like a friend, and I would defiantly recommend them. Blessings to them.

Megan Kirk:

I contacted this law firm after a horrifying car accident. I have never dealt with lawyers, it was scary. I was assigned to Cindy Messner and Todd Julian. Let me tell you, Cindy was the greatest blessing in our life. She spent hours with us on the phone to ease our worries. She answered any questions we had. She felt more like family than anything. This law firm kept us updated every step of the way. Todd was amazing as well. He was the first Lawyer that we talked to at this firm and made us feel like we were in good hands. I will forever refer people to this firm. They fight for you. they have your best interest at hand. Thank you Cindy and Todd for making this experience so comforting. We will never go to any other law firm. #welovethisfirm #Thankyoucindyandtodd

Wendy Hawkins:

Thank you! Thank you!! I'm forever grateful to Todd Julian and Bucky Slomski for helping me find closure and peace after I was severely injured. They truly cared about me and the trauma I went through. They worked tirelessly through the whole process to uncover the truth. Bucky Slomski is my HERO!! He fought through all the road blocks and walls that were put up and he uncovered the truth of what happened to me. He never stopped digging and grinding through the obstacles. Bucky is an excellent person to have on your side when you are in a similar fight.

After nearly 5 years since my injury, I can finally feel peace and sleep soundly. It is a huge relief and I feel blessed that I had two of the best attorneys working every day to fight for me.

Sally Hannon:

We used the services of Burch and Cracchiolo, PA for an accident that we had in our vehicle. Todd Julian and Cindy Messner were both extremely nice and so very very helpful. They were always available when we needed to ask any questions. We appreciate them so much and would recommend them to anyone who needed an attorney's services.

Diane Olson:

What an awesome injury team to represent me….Todd Julian, Bucky Slomski & Cindy Messner! They were amazing to work with and their knowledge, expertise and professionalism was above and beyond.
I interviewed a few other outside lawyers but none were like Todd and team. I felt totally at ease and there was no pressure to ‘sign on the dotted line immediately’ with them.

Todd and team did an excellent job on my behalf and I am very appreciative of their services. I highly recommend you give them a chance to represent you! You won’t be disappointed. Great job!

Dyllan McIntee:

I can't express enough gratitude to Todd Julian, Bucky Slomski, and Cindy Messner. They fought tirelessly for my second chance at a good life. Their relentless efforts weren't just about winning a case; they were about restoring my faith in the possibility of redemption. They didn't just navigate the legal intricacies; they held my hand through every twist and turn, ensuring I never felt alone in the battle.
I can't thank them enough for their dedication, their empathy, and their unwavering belief in my potential to overcome. They're not just lawyers; they're real-life superheroes. If you ever find yourself in need of legal representation, trust me, there's no better team to have by your side. Todd Julian, Bucky Slomski, and Cindy Messner – they're the difference between a life of struggle and a life of possibility.

Sandy Woodling:

Many thanks to Todd Julian for all of the help and information he provided to resolve my injury situation last year. With his (and Cindy Messner's) knowledge and experience dealing with Tribal law, they were able to complete the process for me without any snags. Really top-notch professionals!
