Scott’s Background
After obtaining his law degree from the University of San Diego School of Law, Scott accepted a position with a top personal injury law firm in Northern California, where he soon gained a reputation within the legal community as a tough litigator.
He later founded Sumner Law, where he continues to fight for the rights of injured parties. As a three-time bicycle accident survivor, Scott has a personal familiarity with auto accident injuries and knows all too well the struggles his clients face every day on their road to recovery.
Drew’s Background
Drew became interested in the law when he went to work in the Information Technology Department of an insurance defense firm in Northern California after graduating from college, and soon put himself through law school taking night classes while maintaining a full-time job. He then joined that firm as a defense trial lawyer for several years before pivoting to fighting for Injured people against the big insurance companies and corporations.
