Bob Claraval was a partner with Adler and Claraval from 1974 to 2001. In 2001 Bob and Mary Ann formed Claraval & Claraval where their dream of providing clients with expert personal service became a reality.
Bob and Mary Ann have a strong team approach for providing excellent service. Both are proud to represent people seeking justice from large insurance companies. Bob and Mary Ann do not believe in quick, sell-out settlements. Each client can count on our team’s personal attention to their case.
The beginning is the most important part of the work.

Why Choose Us
At a larger firm, a senior partner may meet with you initially, then hand your case off to a paralegal or junior associate. At our firm, you are never lost in the shuffle because Mary Ann and Bob handle your claims from the beginning to the end. Everyone in our office works on some aspect of your case.
We have developed a trial team approach and meet often as a team to plan strategy and share information. The team will work closely together and you will benefit from this proven approach. As an example, when a client calls, both paralegals, Becky and Mary are familiar with their case and able to provide needed information.
Our dog, Riley, is a friendly golden retriever. Riley sometimes sits with clients to provide compassion during stressful times.
We prepare all our cases as if they were going to trial. Claraval & Claraval has extensive trial experience and will not hesitate to try a case before a jury if a fair settlement cannot be reached. We have successfully tried a wide range of personal injury cases including, car and motorcycle accidents, wrongful death and premise liability.
