His leadership has steered the firm through numerous challenging cases, consistently achieving significant compensation for clients, thus enabling them to rebuild their lives post-injury.

Mr. Silverthorne is recognized not just for his legal acumen but also for his unwavering dedication to clients' welfare. This has garnered accolades such as the Avvo Client’s Choice Award and recognition with a membership in the Million Dollar Advocates Forum as a Top Trial Lawyer. A member of the Orange County Bar Association since 2012, his educational background and professional accolades underscore his dedication to the field of personal injury law.
