Brian Chase of Bisnar | Chase Named as One of California's Top 10 Personal Injury Lawyers

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. - Jan. 13, 2015 - PRLog -- Brian Chase, Senior Partner at the Newport Beach personal injury law firm of Bisnar | Chase has been named as one of the Top 10 Personal Injury Lawyers in the state of California, by the National Academy of Personal Injury Lawyers (NAOPIA). According to a congratulatory letter sent by the organization, NAOPIA chose Chase to receive their highest honor because of the hard work and dedication he has shown in protecting the rights of the injured.

According to NAOPIA's website, the organization's main goal is discovering and recognizing the top 10 personal injury lawyers in each state. The attorneys who make the NAOPIA Top 10 list must first be nominated by a licensed attorney. Then, the organization's research staff verifies that the lawyers meet the minimum requirements for membership. Fifty of the nominated attorneys are then selected to advance as finalists. NAOPIA's Board of Governors officially selected the Top 10 in each state. The Top 10 in each state are selected from more than one million injury lawyers nationwide.

As a winner of this award, Chase's profile will be listed on NAOPIA's website and will receive a plaque in recognition of his accomplishment. NAOPIA's Executive Director Kelly D. Kerr wrote to Chase: "Your expertise, commitment and countless hours spent mastering your craft have earned you this significant honor. As your colleagues and clients can attest, you are truly the best of the best."

Chase said he is honored to receive this award on behalf of his entire team. "I consider it an honor to represent individuals who have been seriously injured as a result of negligence or due to dangerous or defective products," he said. "A number of our clients may not have gotten their day in court or had a shot at getting the compensation they need and rightfully deserve, had our firm not represented them. This is truly the best, most fulfilling job I could ever have."

Chase thanked the firm's associates for their hard work and dedication. "We work together not just as a team, but like a family. It's a truly special place to come to work every day. We have a common purpose – to provide superior legal representation to our injured and wronged clients."

Chase says he has also derived significant satisfaction from holding negligent corporations accountable. "We have gone after large automakers, insurance companies and product manufacturers who have caused significant harm to consumers by making and selling substandard products. We refuse to accept it when these companies put profits ahead of people. I take pride in fighting for the rights of these individuals and helping them win against the big guy."
