Overview

Sherman Willet Hood is a personal injury lawyer at Preszler Injury Lawyers and a member of the Law Society of British Columbia. Called to the British Columbia bar in 2002, he represents injured plaintiffs in complex bodily-injury claims, including motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, sexual assault and institutional abuse matters. Sherman began his legal career as in-house counsel with the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia and later worked at two Vancouver insurance-defence firms. Since 2015, he has acted exclusively for plaintiffs. That defence-side experience informs his approach to anticipating how insurers assess, defend and resolve claims. Sherman has served as lead counsel in complex personal injury trials before the British Columbia Supreme Court and is prepared to advance unresolved cases before judges and juries. He earned a psychology degree from Simon Fraser University in 1995 and his law degree from the University of Nottingham in 2000. Preszler's current lawyer directory and profile identify him as an active practising lawyer.
