"David Wallin represented me in an accident and I can say with certainty that I received a very favourable outcome. David was very professional but personable as well. I highly recommend him as a lawyer and would not hesitate..."
Ms. P.J.
“I suffered whiplash in a rear-end collision which changed my life. I had not been in a serious car accident before, nor had I ever been through litigation.
I was referred to David Wallin and when I called him immediately after my accident, he was very informative about the process and generous with his time, which immediately put me at ease. He took an interest in me as a person, not just as the potential of another file.
With a high degree of professionalism and skill Mr. Wallin supported and guided me through what was a challenging process. His experience and expertise working with traumatized people was apparent as he quickly earned my trust and all I had to do was show up to my responsibilities as a client.
He invested everything within his power to ensure the best possible outcome, for which I am truly moved and grateful. I felt he was 100 % up to bat for me, which allowed me to focus on what I needed to do in terms of healing, and adjusting to my new limitations.
Throughout the process, he and his team were responsive and kept in close contact with me which fostered a great working relationship. I look forward to periodically checking in with Mr. Wallin as I have a great deal of respect for the work he did, how he conducted himself as a professional with compassion…”

“Dear David,
From the moment we first met, you have been professional and courteous with me. You have listened to what I had to say, you have always been prompt in returning my phone calls and keeping me updated with our progress, and you have been thorough and efficient in carrying out the actions associated with my civil suit as well as the settlement negotiations which in the end closed the books.
Your advice has always been well-founded, you have been a calming influence to the rage that I occasionally experienced throughout this endeavor, and you have a keen sense for what is fair in the big picture. Overall, you have been an outstanding ambassador for lawyers in general and for yourself, and I would like to sincerely thank you for your efforts on my behalf.
Sincerely,”
Mr. V.T.
Thank you very much for your support and guidance throughout my negotiations with ICBC. Over the many months of working with you, I've greatly admired your efficiency, trustworthiness, decency, care and engagement in my case, and great attention to detail. Knowing my claim was in good hands removed a lot of stress from the process. I feel fortunate to have been able to confidently count on your responsiveness, respect and for standing up for me during the mediation. I am grateful that we were able to achieve good, fair results together.
I've also greatly appreciated your patience and willingness to educate me every step of the way. Thank you for ongoing your assistance and helpfulness, and the care you've taken in safe-guarding my future. I feel very fortunate to have had you on my team throughout this challenging process.
With gratitude,”
Ms. T.C.
“I wanted to take this opportunity to thank the team at Whitelaw Twining for their work on my whiplash injury. The staff and lawyers were both professional and caring.
The particular nature of my injury looked like it would be relatively straightforward case, however it turned out to be much more complicated and difficult. If it hadn't been for the knowledge and skills of my main lawyer David Wallin, I would have never been able to cope with the many surprises that came our way. I became very agitated with the whole situation but the calm and encouraging staff was always understanding and supportive. They worked with a great deal of sensitivity and intuition and always stayed focused on the goal of proper compensation for my injury.
The thimbleful offered by the insurance company was increased significantly through their perseverance and determination. Working with this firm I always got the sense that someone was out to bat for me. They would always keep me up to date on the developments and contacted me to verify everything before reacting.
At times the ordeal felt like David was trying to bring down Goliath, but with Whitelaw Twining's slingshot of expertise and excellence, I saw that it was possible. I truly appreciate the long hours and heartfelt support I received and would not hesitate to recommend this firm to anyone who has been injured in any way.”
Mrs. K.S.
“I was involved in an MVA; the injury I incurred did not manifest itself until a month after the accident. ICBC refused to believe that the injury was related to the accident. David Wallin of Whitelaw Twining became my [ lawyer ].
During this long complicated case I found that David and his staff always took the time to make sure that I understood the process, timeline and conduct of the case. I was well briefed on what I should expect during the many meetings with the ICBC lawyers and their assorted experts.
While working with David and seeing the competence and professionalism of him and all the staff I met at Whitelaw Twining, I saw a change in how I was treated by ICBC. In the beginning ICBC was confident in their case, but by the end of the process they offered me equitable compensation that I accepted bringing this case to a favourable conclusion.”
Mr. O.S.
"It was really wonderful meeting with Sanjeeta. I appreciate her kindness and patience in listening to me diligently and then explaining the [law] in a most effective way."
Mr. G. S.
“I was hit by a car while riding my bicycle. I obtained the services of David Wallin, as I suffered bodily injuries. I had a very positive experience having David Wallin represent me.
David was very helpful with respect to counseling me and is knowledgeable, informative and very professional in his approach. His appointments with me were scheduled quickly; he answered all my calls in a timely manner and offered direction and advice willingly. He shared with me the benefits of his profession and ensured that I understood his advice. I always felt as though I was his only client. He was very thorough in his investigations and to this end, I had great results with my claim. He was very confident and was forthright when dealing with ICBC - he knows his onions.
I would definitely hire Mr. Wallin's services again and have recommended him to my friends.”
Mr. K.K.
“Soon after sustaining a neck injury, I developed a growing concern for what the future held for me and my family. It became apparent that a wise and responsible decision would be to seek legal counseling.
Although the process proved to be long and challenging both emotionally and physically, David enabled me to maintain a steadfast confidence in my case and a trust in the knowledge that my best interests were of the utmost importance at all times. Not only did I experience open communication and constant availability to my ongoing concerns, my relationship with David soon changed from that of client to friend.
Due to David's "above and beyond" work ethic, the most difficult journey of my life also became the most rewarding. Even though we achieved great success in our litigation, the true success came in the fulfillment of knowing, through the proper legal guidance and determination, I made the right decision and developed a life long friendship in the process.
It is with great respect and true admiration that I will highly recommend Whitelaw Twining and David Wallin to anyone seeking legal advice in the future.”
Mr. R.H.
"From the moment we met William he was a consummate professional. He is very thorough and with him you feel like he is in charge and will get the job done right. He is always there when you need him and we found him to be a very caring person." Ms. F. L.
“David,
…Your commitment and ability to succeed in complex situations is a credit to your profession.
It is a comfort to me, both personally and professionally to be able to call on a moments notice and know we have the best representation available.
I wish you continued success.
Yours truly,”
Mr. O.M.
“In March of 2005, my 72 year-old mother was leaving her apartment and was engaged in a very unfortunate and traumatic accident … and she has been dealing with serious emotional, physical and mental long term trauma as a result of this accident.
At the time, we hired the services of a law office to support and advise my mother on how to face the accident that had left her practically crippled for the rest of her life. After almost a year and a half, we realized the respected law firm had not done their due diligence with regards to this case and they had not [ taken ] any of the actions that they had agreed upon …
In 2006, we decided to seek proper support and as a result we changed our legal representation. We were very fortunate to find Whitelaw Twining Law Corporation and a young patient lawyer by the name of, David J. Wallin, who accepted our file.
From the first meeting, he started all the necessary actions and immediately began to rectify and correct all the mistakes made by the previous law firm.
David was extremely disciplined in his work and over performed on the schedule he provided us at the beginning. We have had a few experiences with law firms and this is definitely the only experience that stands out to be superior.
He always kept us informed on every step and he accomplished and delivered everything he promised accurately in a timely manner. His effective strategy worked extremely well for my mother and unlike the other firm, whatever David said was precise and exact. David changed our perception of the law in support of people who really need it. We owe David a lot for his kindness, unconditional moral support and effective strategy and knowledge.”
Mr. T.M.
"I was involved in a serious MVA and a close friend recommended David Wallin to handle my personal injury claim.
My expectations were exceeded from the first day that David visited me in the hospital in Vancouver. Throughout the three year period to resolution of my claim I was constantly impressed with his knowledge and skill and grateful for his help. Not once in that time was I unable to reach him by phone on his direct line. He kept me in the loop with what was happening and for a time acted as buffer between myself and the ICBC representative in charge of my claim.
His preparation of my case was extremely thorough and his skill as a negotiator enabled my case to be resolved to my complete satisfaction … ."
Ms. T.M.
“Hi David,
First, let me start by saying THANK YOU!!
I know this was a difficult case, and I probably will never know the extent of how hard you worked on this for me.
I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart, not only for the work you did but for taking on this case for me when it looked hopeless and nobody else would.
I know this is your job, but you do more than that for people. I don't know if you will ever really know what you've done for me, your honesty and guidance through the whole process was so very much appreciated.
"David Wallin" will be the name I give to EVERYONE that I hear is in need of a lawyer for their personal injury.
Thank you to all your staff and associates for all their guidance and patience through all of this as well their kindness and professionalism. So, again I thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!”
Mrs. G.H.
"I highly recommend David Wallin. David is an honest, caring person that worked diligently on our case. It was a difficult and complicated case with ICBC, but David worked hard on our behalf. We felt comfortable talking to David and we would recommend him to all our friends and family. Thanks so much David!”
Mrs. M.G
Thank you for your wise counsel over the recent months. Your knowledge and advice brought about a very positive outcome for my family through a time where I was personally struggling with my situation. Trusting you through the process was absolutely the right thing to do.
Thank you most sincerely for everything,”
Ms. K.L.
“I would like to take this opportunity to highly recommend the services of my lawyer David Wallin.
In 1996, I was in a very serious car accident and for the next 6 years David represented me in what I found to be a very difficult ICBC case. I found him to be quite knowledgeable, honest and wise, but most of all it was his kind and considerate manner that supported me the most. I was having so much pain, fatigue and stress that many times I could hardly put one thought in front of the other. David was a constant presence walking me through all that needed to be done. He was easy to establish rapport with and communicated in a very calm and reassuring manner. He was very respectful with all those who attended in court as witnesses. My family still speaks highly of him. So it is with these things in mind, that I consider it a genuine pleasure and honour for me to recommend David to anyone else who finds themselves in a serious accident and in need of a great lawyer. Yours sincerely,” Mrs. M.B.
“As a victim of a MVA where the other driver ran a red light and hit my car, I really didn't notice any serious pain until months later. My doctors diagnosed whiplash and then the story began.
The passenger in the vehicle I was in was a good friend who also sustained injury and was able to settle with ICBC. A previous claim with favourable results. In fact, she was “over the moon” about her lawyers and highly recommended Whitelaw Twining.
I consulted with this firm at first with great trepidation as I had heard rumours about how difficult settlement can be. My lawyers tackled a very difficult case in a most professional way, understanding the complexities and respecting the anxieties that my case produced.
I can't really begin to describe the pressure one feels in such instances but let it be said that my lawyers were there all the way. They are sensitive to the needs of the client and I felt they navigated through the unexpected challenges with a great deal of skill.
I am happy with the results and can only say good things about the team at Whitelaw Twining. The settlement has meant a lot to me and has helped to put my life back on track. With such a case as mine the choice of lawyers has made all the difference.”
Ms. K.S.
“[ David Wallin’s ] knowledge of the practice area, his ability to see the breadth of issues, his creativity, his writing skills, and his tenacious attitude were all way beyond excellent. I was reassured by his steady composure and his grasp of legal technicalities and issues.
David has provided superb in-person, mediation, internet and telephone services. It has been refreshing to work with someone as professional and caring as he has been.
…[ David ] went beyond the call of duty to provide innovative legal services in a manner that helped me tremendously. He should be commended.”
Mr. B.P.
My cheque has arrived and I am another step closer to having some closure with this matter. Many thanks to you and your team for getting me here. I feel hugely supported and won't hesitate to highly recommend your firm.
Thanks and regards”,
Ms. D.S.
…We are here due to your brilliant planning, good strategy and hard work.
As I said before, I could do my part because I was working with a master and for a woman who did many sacrifices for me more than a normal mother son relationship. Great job.
Thank you. To me you are not only my mother's lawyer, you are also a family friend.”
There are no words to express our sincere gratitude and deep appreciation for the exceptional work you did on our behalf. It is our belief that our paths crossed for a definite reason and we will forever be grateful and extremely blessed because of it. Not only do we celebrate a victory … we also celebrate a new found friendship. From the bottom of our hearts. Thank you!!!”
Mr. and Mrs. R.R.
“Just a quick note to say thank-you very much for everything you did on my behalf. I am aware that my case was somewhat of a risky one from the outset, but your abilities made the effort a success. I really do have a feeling of completion now that it is all over, and at the very least, the knowledge that a little justice was done, thanks to you.
Again, thank-you very much, David, and I wish you continued success.
Mr. K.L.
Thank you for all the hours you put in on our behalf. We greatly appreciate all your time and efforts.

"David Wallin represented me in an accident and I can say with certainty that I received a very favourable outcome.
David was very professional but personable as well. I highly recommend him as a lawyer and would not hesitate to use his services again should the need arise."
__________ “David, Thanks a lot for bringing this to a close. I sincerely appreciate all the work you have put into [my file].

Thanks” Dr. M.B.
“Hi Dave,
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all the work that [ your team ] have done for [ us ]. We really appreciate it!”
Ms. W.P.
"I would like to thank you so much for recommending that my lawyer David Wallin care for me as his client. A member of my family, suggested that I contact your law office after my 1996 car accident. David has proven himself to be very competent, wise and caring. I had full confidence in him as my lawyer. I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how pleased I am.
Mrs. M.B.
"Overall, I was extremely happy with the way Whitelaw Twining Law Corporation, and in particular, how William Glover handled my ICBC Accident Claim. William was more than diligent in understanding and researching my case and in advising me of my options in settling my case.
Whitelaw Twining assumed responsibility for my case several years after my automobile accident after I was forced to find a new law firm to represent me. They treated me with the utmost professionalism and care. I was very pleased with both his advice and the settlement offer.
I have in fact already recommended William to handle the accident claim for a friend."
Mr. F.R.
"In October 2008, my wife and I were involved in a car accident. We retained the firm of Whitelaw Twining to represent us. Mr. William Glover represented us. The service we got from the firm and Mr. Glover was excellent. I would highly recommend them.
Thank you,"
Mr. D.K.
