With tears I thank you for listening to me...thank you AVA Law Group for all your help. A big shout out to Kelsey too who allowed me to cry (like a baby) and tell my Lahaina fires story recently for the first time since August 8th, 2023. I didn't realize that by being in the midst of the fires that day and seeing the tumultuous weather (fire) in front of my eyes as I looked down Front street that I would cry all the time and feel traumatized when the word fire or Lahaina or Maui came up. Simple things or thoughts still trigger me all the time. I also didn't know that days later in Mahinahina (after we turned the vehicle around just in the nick of time) we would still be shut off from the rest of the world. I also didn't know I would feel so helpless. I especially didn't know that PTS could affect me so deeply then, and continuously to this day. Again, thank you for your support...That support keeps me going and keeps me wanting to heal. I am grateful to you, Andrew and to all the team at AVA Law. I now know that I am not alone as I continue to love and cry for Lahaina and Maui. Love and Mahalo, LB read more

Andrew Van Arnsdale and AVA LAW represents my claim against the US Navy for knowingly providing poisonous chemicals in the groundwater that I drank, bathed in, washed my clothes in, swam in during training and consumed food prepared in the TCE &PCE contaminated water. The Government knew the water was poisoned for over thirty years and it affected the health of over 400,000 Marines, Navy Corpsmen, their dependents, and civilian workers. I, we Marines swore an oath to defend our Constitution against foreign and domestic terrorists. Our oath has no expiration date. We were willing to give our lives for our country and fellow Marines. We did not realize that our leaders had betrayed us. I chose AVA LAW to represent me because of their integrity, honor, experience and their sincerity in dealing with me. Plus Mr Van Arnsdale is a good man. Cordially, John Davenport Cpl USMC 1965-1969 read more

I deeply appreciate the work that AVA Law Group is doing for the unsuspecting victims of the Camp LeJeune toxic water cases that was covered up for so long. With a negative diagnosis of an inherited cancer gene, I truly believe my breast cancer and numerous side effects that are approaching two years in duration were caused by this unknown exposure of toxic water at Camp Lejeune. I worry about my daughter who was conceived there and complications that may be unknown at this time. AVA has been great to offer a weekly webinar meeting to keep clients informed of the progress or lack of regarding our cases. Unfortunately, I am not available on FrIdays to attend, but appreciate the notes sent following up on the meeting. It is comforting to know that someone is watching out for our concerns and interest! Sincerely, Carol D. Elder read more

I am one of the people who is likely lower on the list of how badly someone was affected by the Maui fires, however despite my lower level of direct devastation to my life, health, home, or possessions, AVA Law Group has been absolutely attentive, caring, concerned with my situation, communicative, respectful, acknowledging, and even encouraging, saying that even my lower level of having been affected is valid and is worth making the effort to (to paraphrase into my own terms) balance my karma by making the effort to complete my claim - after all, I WAS affected, and it is not about comparisons or measuring against or next to someone else. It is simply about the effect the experience had on my life. That aside, short story long, thank you AVA. Y'all are doing a great job! read more

I hope this cases come to a close soon I'm failing in my health and would like to know after fighting in the end of the Vietnam that the government is finally going to do what's right for us not counting that not only did a lot of the marines serve they sent us to a place in our own country that I'm sure they new would make us sick. it just makes me sad now thank you for listening to me Anthony R Carden read more

Hi Andrew, I, as a 25 year resident of Hawaii had several choices in the choosing of an attorney to represent me. Your knowledge along with the quality of service I have received from your office and from your team members is unparalleled. (Please keep in mind that I founded the entire retail division for Cushman and Wakefield as a VP when the company was owned by Mitsubishi and David Rockefeller.) The Firestorm destroyed Front Street along with the retail companies that I represented on Front Street and companies that were expanding in Lahaina. It is not to be compared to the many who lost their homes and their way of life. Respectfully, Steven Bronstein read more

Andrew VanArsdale and his team at AVA Law have stood by my family for three years following the Maui wildfire that took our home and upended our lives. Their dedication has been nothing short of extraordinary. Andrew consistently made time to answer every question -- no matter how big or small -- and ensured we understood each step of the process. His team worked with compassion, precision, and a level of professionalism that gave us stability during the most uncertain chapter of our lives. I am deeply grateful for their commitment and highly recommend AVA Law to anyone seeking a legal team that truly cares. Mahalo Tanya Kaʻaihue Lahaina Maui read more

up in the air. We can still go either way you see I'm being represented by the Ada law group but yet I really don't know where we're at in the case or where the cat cases are presently at how close to settlement whatever and I need more communication on their part and I think that being said they would be all right .r good things about about AVA.. they have won some of the largest settlements I've heard for personal injury so if everybody that's waiting on the outcome of seven of the case I think we're in good hands and we'll be all right all of us that's all thank you for this opportunity. Okay so read more

The AVA Law group isn't like the other large law firms . I first hired another firm that tricked me into thinking that they were doing everything possible and then later said they didn't think I had a case and dropped me. I truly believe that this firm has been through some high profile cases that have taught them how to avoid all the pitfalls and roadblocks that the government has been trying to put forward. I believe that AVA are very concerned and compassionate and will make the right decisions and give the people who are desperately in need of compensation a substantial reward. read more

I can honestly say this is the best law firm I've ever had the privilege of working with and being represented by. Their honesty, genuine care, and efficiency are truly remarkable; they deliver on every promise. I am incredibly pleased with this law firm and deeply grateful to have met such remarkable men and women. Their love and compassion for what they do truly helps compensate for the great loss we've all suffered. While some things money can't buy or replace, their support certainly helps us begin to heal.

The staff at AVA HAVE BEEN GREAT. they are personable and patient, taking the time to walk me thru the process and making sure my information was up to date. I was able to open up about my feelings about the tragedy and was able to express feelings I hadn't had the opportunity to share. I'd like to thank the whole staff for their delegence, commitment and compassion. Although my loss was small l was kept informed and in the loop. I'm a dedicated artist who like so many, have lost the vehicle to shair my work with others. My sincere thanks to AVA, Shirley Dumo read more

Working with AVA Law Group, and specifically Andrew Van Arsdale, has been a very positive experience. From the beginning, they have stayed in consistent contact, keeping me updated and informed at each step of the Maui Wildfire lawsuits. What stands out most is their patience and understanding during such a difficult process. They take the time to explain, answer questions, and make the whole experience as comfortable as possible in what is naturally an uncomfortable situation. I truly appreciate their professionalism and the steady support they've provided. read more

I never expected that I would even have a claim. I had just started a business that literally opened the day before the fire. I lost my entire investment but considering what other's lost, I figured I was lucky and didn't expect that I might qualify. Then I saw and ad on Facebook from AVA Law group and I replied. I was very pleased the immediate response. They took down all my information and said there is a good chance I might get a few dollars back. Anything would help. AVA Law Group is also very good at communicating with twice weekly email updates. read more

I would definitely recommend this law firm to anyone who needs a group of friends to have their back AVA Lawyers are them. They value each person the same. read more
