Details
As a principal at Leavitt Yamane & Soldner, Woodruff K. Soldner provides dedicated legal representation to clients throughout Honolulu, Hawaii. He focuses his practice on personal injury, generally handling cases that involve car accidents, bicycle accidents, products liability, injuries to children, burn injuries, brain injuries and wrongful death.
After receiving a Bachelor of Science in finance from Kansas State University in 1982, Mr. Soldner went on to attend the University of Kansas School of Law. From there, he earned a Juris Doctor in 1985.
With 30 years of experience, Mr. Soldner understands how motor vehicle accidents can change people's lives in the blink of an eye. For those who have been seriously injured due to the negligence or recklessness of other drivers, extensive medical expenses and lost wages can make an already devastating situation even more challenging. For that reason, Mr. Soldner is committed to helping his clients obtain compensation for their injuries. He aggressively advocates on behalf of his clients and strives to ensure their rights are protected.
Mr. Soldner has achieved high rates of success in obtaining favorable resolutions for his clients to their legal issues, including more than 25 settlements and verdicts exceeding $1,000,000. In recognition of his achievements, Mr. Soldner is a member of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, he holds an Avvo "Excellent" rating, he has earned a rating of BV Distinguished* from Martindale-Hubbell and he is listed in Honolulu magazine's Best Lawyers in Hawai'i.
Staying active in the legal community is a priority for Mr. Soldner. He is a member of the American Bar Association and previously served as the president of the Hawai'i Association for Justice.
