Early in my career I worked as a defense attorney for a large nationally known insurance company. For the last 16 years, I have been the proprietor of the law office of Robert L. Noa. The experience of doing defense work early in my career has proven valuable over the course of time as it has allowed me to "think like a defense attorney." I have an edge in dealing with insurance companies because I know how they think. Knowing most of their defense tactics has allowed me to be very successful on behalf of my clients. My cases are constantly coming up in court or being settled. A few of my recently settled cases have included:

• Third-party tractor accident : $500,000.00
• Low back injury: $425,000.00
• Work-related herniated disc : $300,000.00
• Widow's claim (workers compensation) : $250,000.00
• Widow's claim (workers compensation) : $240,000.00
• Telephone lineman with a herniated disc : $225,000.00
• Partial loss of eye sight: $200,000.00

This very short list represents just a few of the thousand or so cases I have handled over the years. Each person's situation is unique and, obviously, very personal to them. My office may handle many cases but the only one that is important to my client is theirs. This may seem apparent but many large law firms seem to forget the importance of having an attorney develop an actual attorney/client relationship with the person they represent! At large firms you may only get to deal with a secretary or perhaps a paralegal on a regular basis and your actual attorney rarely, if ever. When you hire the law office of Robert L. Noa you get me. While I am often out of the office because I am in court you can be assured that I will get back to you in person within a day.
