I do not have enough praise for Attorney Douglas A. Petho. He was with me from the very beginning of my claim all the way to the end and I could never repay him for that. From going through something so traumatic, he walked with me step by step and never left my side. He took the weight of the world off my shoulders because this was something I could have never done myself — so for that I am forever grateful and will ALWAYS recommend Price Petho & Associates!

I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help me with my case. Catching on fire was a painful experience, but they made certain that I had the best team to work with in resolving the issue and made the entire experience with them very painless. Their communication and diligence ensured that my case was handled the way I needed it to be. If I ever have another case in the future, I will certainly be calling them again. Could not recommend them more.

I am very satisfied in having selected Price Petho and Associates to handle my claim. Attorney Margaret Ford handled my case diligently from start to finish, asking the right questions and guaranteeing she would see it through to the best possible outcome. Even though I had a lot of treatment and my case took longer than average, she provided me updates and answered all my emails and questions promptly. I appreciate all the work she and the team put in even though she wasn’t the first attorney I hired. If I could go back, I’d have hired Price Petho & Associates right from the start. I have recommended their services to friends and family.

Attorney Petho and his team are amazing people! My son and I was in a scary car accident. Him and his team were very supportive, caring, helpful and thoughtful. He helped with connecting us with the best doctors to treat our medical needs. He fought hard against the insurance company and got us far more than I expected. Petho and his whole team are the best! I highly recommend this firm. - Valerie

The best in Charlotte! Less than 4 days after purchasing my first car I was rear ended on the interstate. I am a young college student and was approached by countless personal injury lawyers but was personally recommended Price Petho & Associates by multiple family friends. The entire process was easy, stress free and all the staff treat clients like family. Extremely pleased! Special thank you to Margaret Ford and the entire Price Petho & Associates family.
