"I cannot say enough good things about Stephen. After being injured in an auto accident by another driver, the other driver’s insurance company would not even return my calls, except one call where the insurance company offered an amount so low it would not even cover the cost of my medical expenses. This went on for several months. Acquaintances of mine recommended I contact Stephen. Wow! I’m so thankful I did. After my first meeting with Stephen, all my stress relating to the case (i.e., paying medical bills, dealing with insurance companies, etc.,) went away. His genuine kindness and professionalism put me immediately at ease, and he was careful to explain to me how the case would be handled, what I could reasonably expect, and answered all my questions. Stephen took care of everything. He worked with my insurance company, the at-fault driver’s insurance company, my health insurance company, and Medicare. He kept me informed about my case at regular intervals. Within about six months, Stephen presented me with a settlement package that paid all my medical expenses and an extremely fair amount for my pain and suffering. Thank you Stephen!!! You’re the best!!!"

"On my way home with my kids from an evening out got hit by a guy running the red light. It couldn't have been at the most inconvenient time of my life. I was getting ready to close on my home within about 45 days, I was on Accutane prescription because of my severe stress and anxiety breaking me out, and found out I might have cancer in my thyroid (found out in the ER from the wreck unsure if that was a positive). Talk about stress to another level. The Accutane delayed my healing keeping me in therapy longer from my car wreck injuries. I was recommended by my Sergeant and I still thank her for recommending Blackburn Law. I can't thank Stephen enough for the clear communication, letting me know the next step along the way and making it a priority to heal first (I didn't even meet him until finalizing on the claim). As soon as medical stuff was done and as most processes it took a few months to get everything in line but he was quick to respond whenever I needed an update. He was very professional, realistic, and didn't set an unreasonable expectation while also being very positive thru the process. It's a terrible thing to deal with at any point in your life but having the right person to help you, guide you, look out for you is the biggest blessing when life doesn't stop. Highly recommend Blackburn Law. 2020 still has nothing on 2019."

"Me and my girlfriend were minding our business leaving a parking lot when someone crashed into our car. I hired Stephen Blackburn to help with the case and he took good care of me, communicated regularly and always did his best to answer my questions. I was very happy with the insurance settlement. Thank Stephen!"
RAYDEN HESKETT, Meridian, ID
"I was in a very serious car accident in March of 2018 where my car was totaled. I was injured to the point where I had to miss work for a week and had continued doctor's appointments for quite awhile. I was already at a very tumultuous point in my life and I was struggling just to make it. I went to one of the billboard accident lawyers in town and left feeling unsupported and scared of the future after only being allowed to meet with an assistant. I was fortunate enough to find Stephen on Google and called him up - he answered the phone and I was instantly relieved by our conversation. Throughout this entire process, even the points where I wanted to shut down and give up, Stephen was there working FOR me to ensure that I got what I deserved out of this potentially horrible situation. Thankfully, my injuries have healed as best they can and the situation was resolved as painlessly as possible with his help. I would recommend Stephen to my family and loved ones in a heartbeat. He is knowledgeable and supportive and, most importantly, I always knew he had my back."
JENNA HART, Nampa, ID
"After a car crash that was not my fault, the insurance company tried to tell me the hospital charged me too much for my emergency visit, that they would only pay a portion of the bill and I would be responsible to pay the balance. What!? How could this be? I didn't cause the accident! They sent me a release to sign which, had I signed it, would have had me paying over $6,000 for medical bills that their bad driver caused!
On a referral from a friend, I consulted with Stephen Blackburn and he assured me that the insurance company was trying to take advantage of me. He told me not only would he get all the bills paid, but also get additional money for what I had to go through at the hands of the insurance company. Stephen did exactly what he said he would do!
I'm grateful for Stephen's efforts on my case, and for reassuring me that he could get the insurance company to do the right thing."
MARIA PEREZ AVALOS, Caldwell, ID
"Well Stephen THANK YOU for being my advocate and that you did. An honest, fair and great person. Thank you."
CHERISE HEIM, Boise, ID
"I had a case that was represented by a previous lawyer. This other lawyer was severely negligent and almost caused my case to be dismissed. With Stephen's help, my case was not only saved, but won!"
SHARI STARCHMAN, Meridian, ID
"I was hit on my bicycle while obeying the law and attempted to avoid being hit however was not so lucky. After recovering and speaking with the insurance companies they were insistent that some part of me being hit was my fault.
I was at a loss I couldn't afford to pay a portion of my medical bills for something I didn't cause. This is when I contacted Stephen. His guidance and clear and easy to understand explanation of how insurance companies and cases like mine happen made me feel secure and confident I made the right choice.
The insurance company changed their tune as soon as Stephen got on board. He took care of everything, he took up very little of my time so I could focus on healing. The end result was I didn't have to pay anything out of pocket for the accident and even helped me file the claim to replace my road bicycle.
I would highly recommend him as an advocate if you want an honest, straightforward attorney. He is a credit to his profession and a good man."
DESTRY NIELSEN, Boise, ID
"Stephen Blackburn was a Godsend for me and my family. He is a fantastic lawyer with such high integrity. After what can only be described as the worst year of bad luck, my family had 4 separate car crashes, none of which were our fault. Stephen handled all of the cases, some simultaneously, and was able to keep the insurance companies involved honest. Stephen told us we needed to just focus on healing because that was the most important thing.
His advice is sound and his approach is straightforward. His communication is excellent, especially when explaining all of the insurance terms. He is very knowledgeable about personal injury law. Although we live in Boise, he had no problem coming to our home from Meridian to help us out and treated us like we were his only clients!"
KRISTA KING, Boise, ID
"When I hired Stephen Blackburn for my car crash in 2016, I was hoping to just get my medical bills paid. Stephen did that and much more. I am very grateful for his help."
CLAUDETTE MORGAN, Boise, ID
"I was pretty banged up in a car accident and Mr. Blackburn was able to get me two different settlements. One from the at-fault driver's insurance, and when that wasn't enough to cover my damages he got me an underinsured motorist settlement. I am very happy with the way he handled my case!"
RYAN REDDING, Nampa, ID
“In January 2015 I was involved in a car crash which resulted in serious injuries and long-term rehabilitation. While I was in the hospital my family made numerous calls to Stephen asking advice on how to handle different aspects of the case. Stephen answered all their questions patiently and went beyond what most other attorneys would have done without a fee charged. Later when I was able to meet Stephen I found him to be the most compassionate, sincere, honest and knowledgeable person that I have ever met. I had complete confidence in his handling of my case. In the beginning, my medical expenses far exceeded all available insurance money. Stephen nevertheless negotiated with my providers and I still received a fair settlement. Stephen truly cares about his clients.
In the end you have a good friend, not just an attorney. I highly recommend Stephen Blackburn.”
JUDITH HAMMOND, Meridian, ID
“I was the no fault driver in two separate accidents within two days - my first accidents ever. I hired Mr. Blackburn to represent me in this complicated case. He was honest and told me exactly what I needed to know and answered any and all questions. He was a pleasure to work with and I am very pleased with his service and results.”
SHELLEY WORLEY, Eagle River, AK
“Mr. Blackburn was unbelievable during my whole case. He never gave me false hope about the size of my settlement or how easy my case would be. Stephen was persistent and never let the other person's insurance company off the hook. He dealt with collecting the bills from all of my service providers and did everything he could to help me not to worry. Even when I began to lose my energy to keep of the fight he did not. He was very easy to reach and always returned my calls promptly. In the end it felt like we had come through a battle together. I have and will continue to recommend Stephen Blackburn to all of my friends and family.”
TAMARA OWENS, Kuna, ID
“I was rear-ended by an inattentive driver. I received injuries as well as extensive damage to my SUV. I so recommend attorney Stephen Blackburn. He explains everything and fights for your rights. He is a great attorney and a very nice man.”
LORIANN RINGGOLD, Star, ID
“After my accident, I thought it best to let a professional handle my claim. I probably could have handled it on my own, but being busy with family and work, I decided to hire a lawyer. Mr. Blackburn was thorough, communicative and responsible in the way he handled my claim. I would recommend him to anyone injured in a car accident.”
RAUL DOMINGUEZ, Nampa, ID
“I was in a car accident and immediately hired Stephen as my attorney to get me through this. Even at the initial meeting, I met with Stephen who I immediately liked and trusted. Through out the last two years Stephen has fought for me, listened to me vent when this case seemed to just be at a stand still and laugh with me. I could call him and he would always remember who I was and what was going on, he answered his emails faster than I thought possible. He is honest about what is going on and doesn't sugar coat what the outcomes can possibly look like to what reality looks like. Overall Stephen makes you feel that you are the most important client he has and is always there for you, as well as available to you. I would highly recommend that anyone who needs an attorney call Stephen Blackburn, you will not be disappointed. He exceeded my expectations and shown me that you can trust lawyers! Thank you so much Stephen for all you did to help me out.”
SABRINA BUAL, Polson, MT
“A close friend referred me to Stephen Blackburn back in 2010 when I was involved in back-to-back car accidents making for a complex case. My first impressions of Stephen were his balanced approach of professionalism, confidence, and fun sense of humor. Throughout the entire case Stephen consistently provided sound advice, keeping my interests in mind, and never setting false expectations. I appreciated the fact that Stephen was always available and willing to answer my questions. On a number of surprise visits Stephen was always willing to stop what he was doing and give me his time. Stephen was able to take what was quickly becoming a bad situation for my family and me and completely changed the outcome. Most importantly I was able to spend my time with my family and focus on rehabilitation. My decision to work with Stephen was the best decision I could have made. Stephen exceeded every expectation as well as became a good friend during the process. I would HIGHLY recommend Stephen Blackburn to ALL my family and friends. Thanks again Stephen for everything!”
AARON BOUTILIER, Boise, ID
“After being involved in an accident, I contact Mr. Blackburn's office to discuss my situation in detail. From the first time we met I knew I had found the best attorney for my situation. Mr. Blackburn answered all my questions and explained my options. He was very friendly, showed great professionalism and I felt confident in his firm. Throughout the process I could contact Mr. Blackburn anytime and he would get back to me quickly. Mr. Blackburn helped me though the complex situation and ultimately got results. Overall he made a not so pleasant experience (the accident) better with his help. Thank you Mr. Blackburn for all your hard work.”
JOSEPH TUFTS, Boise, ID
“My husband and I were in a car accident in Nevada. I found Stephen by searching the internet. I liked what I read about him. He helped us with our case. He was very caring and concerned with our feelings. We knew what he was doing during the case, and why. We are very happy with the settlement and will stay in touch with him. He is a friend first, then a lawyer. Thanks, Stephen, for your help and your friendship.”
LAURA & LYLE WING, Mesa, AZ
“Bottom line is Stephen Blackburn brought humanity and kindness into an ugly and painful situation. He settled my case and I was able to walk away knowing he did everything he could and more. I was injured in a car accident in another state that when all said and done involved 4 insurance policies and a very difficult car rental agency. Stephen Blackburn took the time to handhold me through it all. He answered any questions I had in a very timely manner no matter how minor or irrelevant they were. I cannot express enough gratitude for everything Stephen Blackburn did for me.”
JESSICA LEEKLEY, Boise, ID
“I would like to thank Stephen Blackburn for all his help in getting my case settled fairly and professionally. I knew I could count on him!”
SONJA THOMPSON, Caldwell, ID
“I had a very unfortunate experience being rear-ended in heavy traffic. Through that situation I reached out to legal counsel. I found a random number on the internet and was greatly blessed to find Stephen Blackburn. He completely explained all points of my potential case and made everything extremely easy for me. He handled everything with ease and competence. At times I would call him in tears because of my situation and he was very empathetic, always with sound legal advice. My case followed through exactly as expected and as he advised and it all worked out. He was very accommodating in every way and professional. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing attorney.”
STEF RIKSTAD, St. Louis, MO
“I was hit by a drunk driver who totaled my van and left me bruised and battered. I waited three months to hear from the driver's insurance company with no results. I called Mr. Blackburn and asked a few questions. I then hired him to help me with multiple insurance companies. He talked me through the whole process and what to expect. I was always surprised when he answered his own phone. He talked to me in terms I understood and gave great advice. I would certainly recommend him to anyone.”
LINDA BURTLOW, Nampa, ID
“I hired Stephen Blackburn to help expedite settlement from an insurance company. He was able to do so in a timely fashion, but unfortunately Medicare was involved and he had to wade through the government bureaucracy. He continued to communicate with Medicare and was able to get what we needed to bring the case to a close. After all was said and done, I obtained more net money than I expected. I appreciate his efforts and highly recommend him to anyone who feels they won't be treated fairly by an insurance company.”
SHELLEY BARTLETT, Boise, ID
“I wish to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to Stephen Blackburn for handling my cases. He was extremely proficient and professional through my stressful situations. I am particularly grateful for his honest approach. He explained the system and helped me understand which steps to take towards a favorable outcome. I was satisfied with both of my outcomes in my cases. I would certainly recommend his firm for future matters.”
BREANNA COBISKEY, Nampa, ID
“I was attacked by a dog and the owner's insurance company denied my claim. I hired Mr. Blackburn and within 30 days the insurance company had a settlement check to me. Amazing! If you need a personal injury attorney I highly recommend you call Stephen Blackburn.”
VANCE BARBOUR, Boise, ID
“I was in a devastating motorcycle accident in September of 2008, requiring multiple surgeries and prolonged rehabilitation. I hired Mr. Blackburn to negotiate out a settlement with the person that hit me. Unfortunately, my medical bills substantially outnumbered the total insurance benefits available. Regardless, Mr. Blackburn still fought to obtain a settlement and was able to reduce the amount of money I was obligated to repay to my own insurance and creditors. I am pleased with the result and recommend Mr. Blackburn to anyone who suffers a debilitating injury as a result of a motorcycle accident.”
KENNETH GURR, Meridian, ID
“My stepson and I were in a serious head-on collision. The other driver was at fault and we contacted Stephen Blackburn once we realized that the at fault party might not have sufficient insurance to cover all of the medical bills. Stephen helped us through the process. He answered all of our questions in a clear and prompt manner, was always available, and worked hard to represent our interests. Most importantly, he was honest. My family and I would recommend Stephen Blackburn without hesitation.”
JOE HITESMAN, Boise, ID
“My husband and I were rear-ended in 2010 on our way home from work on the interstate. The accident was no fault of our own. In the emergency room the police officer told us that the person who hit us had no proof of insurance. We were both extremely shaken and had no clue what step to take next. We were terrified that we were going to be responsible for the ambulance, the hospital bills, the chiropractic care, and my totaled vehicle. Once the medical bills started coming in we knew we had to do something. Hiring a lawyer was not something we wanted to do, but we knew we had no choice. Finding Stephen Blackburn and hiring him was the best thing we could have done.
Stephen is an amazing attorney. He has an incredible knowledge of the settlement process. He handled all of our medical bills and dealing with the insurance companies. Not only did he handle all of the paperwork, but he was our voice when no one else would listen. Each and every time we called he answered the phone, or we left him a message and he would return our call promptly. There was no talking to a secretary or assistant. My husband and I know without a doubt that the Lord helped us find Stephen in our time of distress. I can guarantee to anyone that hires Stephen that he will treat you with respect, help you understand the process, make sure that you are taken care of, and that you will be 100% satisfied with his service. If my family or I ever need an attorney again, we will be using Stephen Blackburn.”
MARY ELLEN REED, Nampa, ID
“I was involved in a motorcycle accident in 2008 that changed my life as I knew it. I hired Mr. Blackburn to help me and couldn't have made a better decision. Over the last couple of years, Stephen has become a friend, but has maintained his professionalism with respect to the work that needed to be done on my case. He made sure to check up on me during times he knew were especially hard on me - listening to my predicaments and helping me to see the alternatives when I couldn't see them myself.
Stephen never gave me false hopes, but gave me a realistic outlook on my case. My situation from the start seemed very bleak at receiving any kind of settlement at all, and I pretty much wrote it off. Stephen did not. He was very diligent and persistent that I not give up because he wasn't going to, and after two years Stephen came through for me, getting large medical debts waived or reduced, and enough of a settlement to get me back on my feet again. He even reduced his fee to help me out, telling me that I needed it more than he did. That's a rare quality. I have no doubt that I made the right phone call when I called Stephen Blackburn and I will always recommend him to others who find themselves in hard times after getting injured through no fault of their own.”
WILLIAM B. GRANT, Nampa, ID
“When I was rear-ended last winter, I knew I wouldn't be able to count on the other guy's insurance company to take care of me. My employer gave me a referral to Stephen Blackburn, and I called him to find out what he could do for me. After meeting with him and hearing how he would be on my side throughout the entire claim, I knew I found the right lawyer. Not only did he do what he said he would do, but I was impressed that he answered his phone every time I called in, which was a relief to me since I had questions from time to time - and he had answers. I confidently recommend Mr. Blackburn as your personal injury attorney.”
SCOTT MOORE, Nampa, ID
“This is my first time hiring a lawyer and Mr. Blackburn did a great job on my case with everything that he did. I never imagined the type of settlement he obtained for me, and it came about much quicker than I thought it would. I would recommend Mr. Blackburn to any of my family or friends.”
IRENE HECKATHORN, Mountain Home, ID
“A few years ago I was in an accident where my car was struck by a police officer. I had never experienced something like this before, and I was concerned and unsure how to handle the situation. I felt it was in my best interest to seek some help, so I contacted Stephen Blackburn and explained what happened. He kindly offered to travel to my home due to the fact that my son and I were injured and very upset. I felt comfortable and safe while meeting with Mr. Blackburn, and I was confident that I had contacted the right person.
Through the entire process he was always available to answer any of my questions. He would also call me periodically to make sure things were going well with my medical treatment. All in all, the experience with Mr. Blackburn was very pleasant – he is caring and compassionate. With his help, going through this tough time was much easier for us. He handled everything in a timely and professional manner. If I was ever in need of a lawyer again, I would definitely call Mr. Blackburn.”
MICHELLE HANKINS, Caldwell, ID
“After my car accident I wasn’t convinced I should talk to the insurance company. I hired Stephen Blackburn and since he took over all dealing with the insurance company, I could focus on what was most important – getting healthy again. The best part? He was always available to talk to when I had a question. I highly recommend his services”
JEREMIAH SPRAGUE, Oregon
“There are really no words to say how much we appreciate and thank you for the amazing job you did on our case. The professional knowledge and wisdom you have is outstanding and so very well used in bringing forth the outcome of the case you handled for us. We are so very, very blessed that God led us to your practice. Not only for this case but also the two previous cases you handled for us. We know that fortunately for us should there be another case or cases, you will be our attorney. We’re grateful and very thankful for your awesome time-consuming work you did. Our minds were at ease and worry free during the time you worked on our case. We would highly recommend or refer you to our many loved ones as well as any acquaintances.”
OLGA GARCIA, JUANITA GARCIA, AND JESSE GARCIA JR., Founder/Pastor Anchored Church of God, Caldwell, ID
“In 2006 I and my four children were involved in an accident. During this time of worry and concern, working with Stephen Blackburn was a great relief to me and my family. Stephen conducted himself very professionally and took the time to explain to me what my options were and all that was going, and needed, to take place to resolve the issues at hand. I truly felt that Stephen was genuinely concerned for the well-being of my family and was determined to see that we were compensated fairly, and honestly, for the damages we received. Stephen Blackburn is definitely a lawyer I would trust and trust referring to any individual looking for an honest and great lawyer.”

“After being involved in an accident, I contact Mr. Blackburn's office to discuss my situation in detail. From the first time we met I knew I had found the best attorney for my situation. Mr. Blackburn answered all my questions and explained my options. He was very friendly, showed great professionalism and I felt confident in his firm. Throughout the process I could contact Mr. Blackburn anytime and he would get back to me quickly. Mr. Blackburn helped me though the complex situation and ultimately got results. Overall he made a not so pleasant experience (the accident) better with his help. Thank you Mr. Blackburn for all your hard work.”
JOSEPH TUFTS, Boise, ID
“My husband and I were in a car accident in Nevada. I found Stephen by searching the internet. I liked what I read about him. He helped us with our case. He was very caring and concerned with our feelings. We knew what he was doing during the case, and why. We are very happy with the settlement and will stay in touch with him. He is a friend first, then a lawyer. Thanks, Stephen, for your help and your friendship.”
LAURA & LYLE WING, Mesa, AZ
“Bottom line is Stephen Blackburn brought humanity and kindness into an ugly and painful situation. He settled my case and I was able to walk away knowing he did everything he could and more. I was injured in a car accident in another state that when all said and done involved 4 insurance policies and a very difficult car rental agency. Stephen Blackburn took the time to handhold me through it all. He answered any questions I had in a very timely manner no matter how minor or irrelevant they were. I cannot express enough gratitude for everything Stephen Blackburn did for me.”
JESSICA LEEKLEY, Boise, ID
“I would like to thank Stephen Blackburn for all his help in getting my case settled fairly and professionally. I knew I could count on him!”
SONJA THOMPSON, Caldwell, ID
“I had a very unfortunate experience being rear-ended in heavy traffic. Through that situation I reached out to legal counsel. I found a random number on the internet and was greatly blessed to find Stephen Blackburn. He completely explained all points of my potential case and made everything extremely easy for me. He handled everything with ease and competence. At times I would call him in tears because of my situation and he was very empathetic, always with sound legal advice. My case followed through exactly as expected and as he advised and it all worked out. He was very accommodating in every way and professional. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing attorney.”
STEF RIKSTAD, St. Louis, MO
“I was hit by a drunk driver who totaled my van and left me bruised and battered. I waited three months to hear from the driver's insurance company with no results. I called Mr. Blackburn and asked a few questions. I then hired him to help me with multiple insurance companies. He talked me through the whole process and what to expect. I was always surprised when he answered his own phone. He talked to me in terms I understood and gave great advice. I would certainly recommend him to anyone.”
LINDA BURTLOW, Nampa, ID
“I hired Stephen Blackburn to help expedite settlement from an insurance company. He was able to do so in a timely fashion, but unfortunately Medicare was involved and he had to wade through the government bureaucracy. He continued to communicate with Medicare and was able to get what we needed to bring the case to a close. After all was said and done, I obtained more net money than I expected. I appreciate his efforts and highly recommend him to anyone who feels they won't be treated fairly by an insurance company.”
SHELLEY BARTLETT, Boise, ID
“I wish to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to Stephen Blackburn for handling my cases. He was extremely proficient and professional through my stressful situations. I am particularly grateful for his honest approach. He explained the system and helped me understand which steps to take towards a favorable outcome. I was satisfied with both of my outcomes in my cases. I would certainly recommend his firm for future matters.”
BREANNA COBISKEY, Nampa, ID
“I was attacked by a dog and the owner's insurance company denied my claim. I hired Mr. Blackburn and within 30 days the insurance company had a settlement check to me. Amazing! If you need a personal injury attorney I highly recommend you call Stephen Blackburn.”
VANCE BARBOUR, Boise, ID
“I was in a devastating motorcycle accident in September of 2008, requiring multiple surgeries and prolonged rehabilitation. I hired Mr. Blackburn to negotiate out a settlement with the person that hit me. Unfortunately, my medical bills substantially outnumbered the total insurance benefits available. Regardless, Mr. Blackburn still fought to obtain a settlement and was able to reduce the amount of money I was obligated to repay to my own insurance and creditors. I am pleased with the result and recommend Mr. Blackburn to anyone who suffers a debilitating injury as a result of a motorcycle accident.”
KENNETH GURR, Meridian, ID
“My stepson and I were in a serious head-on collision. The other driver was at fault and we contacted Stephen Blackburn once we realized that the at fault party might not have sufficient insurance to cover all of the medical bills. Stephen helped us through the process. He answered all of our questions in a clear and prompt manner, was always available, and worked hard to represent our interests. Most importantly, he was honest. My family and I would recommend Stephen Blackburn without hesitation.”
JOE HITESMAN, Boise, ID
“My husband and I were rear-ended in 2010 on our way home from work on the interstate. The accident was no fault of our own. In the emergency room the police officer told us that the person who hit us had no proof of insurance. We were both extremely shaken and had no clue what step to take next. We were terrified that we were going to be responsible for the ambulance, the hospital bills, the chiropractic care, and my totaled vehicle. Once the medical bills started coming in we knew we had to do something. Hiring a lawyer was not something we wanted to do, but we knew we had no choice. Finding Stephen Blackburn and hiring him was the best thing we could have done.
Stephen is an amazing attorney. He has an incredible knowledge of the settlement process. He handled all of our medical bills and dealing with the insurance companies. Not only did he handle all of the paperwork, but he was our voice when no one else would listen. Each and every time we called he answered the phone, or we left him a message and he would return our call promptly. There was no talking to a secretary or assistant. My husband and I know without a doubt that the Lord helped us find Stephen in our time of distress. I can guarantee to anyone that hires Stephen that he will treat you with respect, help you understand the process, make sure that you are taken care of, and that you will be 100% satisfied with his service. If my family or I ever need an attorney again, we will be using Stephen Blackburn.”
MARY ELLEN REED, Nampa, ID
“I was involved in a motorcycle accident in 2008 that changed my life as I knew it. I hired Mr. Blackburn to help me and couldn't have made a better decision. Over the last couple of years, Stephen has become a friend, but has maintained his professionalism with respect to the work that needed to be done on my case. He made sure to check up on me during times he knew were especially hard on me - listening to my predicaments and helping me to see the alternatives when I couldn't see them myself.
Stephen never gave me false hopes, but gave me a realistic outlook on my case. My situation from the start seemed very bleak at receiving any kind of settlement at all, and I pretty much wrote it off. Stephen did not. He was very diligent and persistent that I not give up because he wasn't going to, and after two years Stephen came through for me, getting large medical debts waived or reduced, and enough of a settlement to get me back on my feet again. He even reduced his fee to help me out, telling me that I needed it more than he did. That's a rare quality. I have no doubt that I made the right phone call when I called Stephen Blackburn and I will always recommend him to others who find themselves in hard times after getting injured through no fault of their own.”
WILLIAM B. GRANT, Nampa, ID
“When I was rear-ended last winter, I knew I wouldn't be able to count on the other guy's insurance company to take care of me. My employer gave me a referral to Stephen Blackburn, and I called him to find out what he could do for me. After meeting with him and hearing how he would be on my side throughout the entire claim, I knew I found the right lawyer. Not only did he do what he said he would do, but I was impressed that he answered his phone every time I called in, which was a relief to me since I had questions from time to time - and he had answers. I confidently recommend Mr. Blackburn as your personal injury attorney.”
SCOTT MOORE, Nampa, ID
“This is my first time hiring a lawyer and Mr. Blackburn did a great job on my case with everything that he did. I never imagined the type of settlement he obtained for me, and it came about much quicker than I thought it would. I would recommend Mr. Blackburn to any of my family or friends.”
IRENE HECKATHORN, Mountain Home, ID
“A few years ago I was in an accident where my car was struck by a police officer. I had never experienced something like this before, and I was concerned and unsure how to handle the situation. I felt it was in my best interest to seek some help, so I contacted Stephen Blackburn and explained what happened. He kindly offered to travel to my home due to the fact that my son and I were injured and very upset. I felt comfortable and safe while meeting with Mr. Blackburn, and I was confident that I had contacted the right person.
Through the entire process he was always available to answer any of my questions. He would also call me periodically to make sure things were going well with my medical treatment. All in all, the experience with Mr. Blackburn was very pleasant – he is caring and compassionate. With his help, going through this tough time was much easier for us. He handled everything in a timely and professional manner. If I was ever in need of a lawyer again, I would definitely call Mr. Blackburn.”
MICHELLE HANKINS, Caldwell, ID
“After my car accident I wasn’t convinced I should talk to the insurance company. I hired Stephen Blackburn and since he took over all dealing with the insurance company, I could focus on what was most important – getting healthy again. The best part? He was always available to talk to when I had a question. I highly recommend his services”
JEREMIAH SPRAGUE, Oregon
“There are really no words to say how much we appreciate and thank you for the amazing job you did on our case. The professional knowledge and wisdom you have is outstanding and so very well used in bringing forth the outcome of the case you handled for us. We are so very, very blessed that God led us to your practice. Not only for this case but also the two previous cases you handled for us. We know that fortunately for us should there be another case or cases, you will be our attorney. We’re grateful and very thankful for your awesome time-consuming work you did. Our minds were at ease and worry free during the time you worked on our case. We would highly recommend or refer you to our many loved ones as well as any acquaintances.”
OLGA GARCIA, JUANITA GARCIA, AND JESSE GARCIA JR., Founder/Pastor Anchored Church of God, Caldwell, ID
“In 2006 I and my four children were involved in an accident. During this time of worry and concern, working with Stephen Blackburn was a great relief to me and my family. Stephen conducted himself very professionally and took the time to explain to me what my options were and all that was going, and needed, to take place to resolve the issues at hand. I truly felt that Stephen was genuinely concerned for the well-being of my family and was determined to see that we were compensated fairly, and honestly, for the damages we received. Stephen Blackburn is definitely a lawyer I would trust and trust referring to any individual looking for an honest and great lawyer.”
