Leandros A. Vrionedes , is very knowledgeable in all around lawsuits, when I hired him , He was very confident , caring on his toes with my injuries due to this slip and fall which cause me to get a knee replacement and ongoing Physical therapy.He won my case for me without a doubt . Investigated the case with experts he had on hand in lies at the defendants pursued as well as unimaginable things people do to hide the accident . He kept fighting for me . I was compensated for the accident . Rate him a ten out of five star if that would be possible Thank you Yvonne

Leo is not only understands the laws throughly . He is also shows true empathy toward his clients . When ever you call Leo you immediately get a phone call back. He is sharp as a tack . When Leo walks into a room you can see he commands respect . He has unlimited resources at his fingertips. I would never want to be on the opposing side of Leo

I hired Leandros Vrionedes for a weak case (coffee burned my hand and I fainted) and he turned it into real money. He saved me a bundle on medical bills (beyond the duty he was hired for) and he got me a generous settlement on top of that. He’s rock bottom honest. A tiger on attack. Shrewd. Tenacious. A lovely guy to deal with. Did not charge a dime more than his agreed fee. I would not hesitate to go to him.

My case was a very confusing and difficult case to accept, and most lawyers would have turned me away. Mr. Harwick accepted my case and handled it amazingly. Throughout the process he kept me informed, updated and always returned calls and messages fast and was knowledgeable in my case and in the rare instance he didn't have an answer, one was found in no time. My case concluded in mediation and I couldn't be happier how he handled things. I highly recommend him and the people that work in his office, as they were just as nice and friendly. Thank you Mr. Harwick.

Matt was referred to me by my civil attorney whose practice doesn’t do any criminal law. Honestly, I consider a referral from another attorney to be a pretty high bar, so I was very comfortable hiring Matt to handle my case. Matt did an excellent job and all charges were rightfully dismissed. What I appreciated most about Matt was that he was very accessible and responsive and I felt informed and prepared throughout the entire process.

Mr. Harkins represented me in a fair and competent manor and extracted the full amount of compensation my insurance policy allowed. The insurance company had only offered 46% of my personal injury amount under my policy. My accident was the result of an uninsured, unlicensed teenage driver crossing the center line of the roadway and crashing head-on into my vehicle with my wife and I both sustaining injuries. Mr. Harkins' through research and due diligence prevailed during an arbitration meeting with the arbitrator ruling in my favor thus enticing the insurance companies change of heart.

Christopher Cazares is the best military lawyer I could have hired. I was facing a drug court-martial as part of a “drug ring.” I watched Christopher outperform every lawyer in the room, including the senior prosecutor. His confidence and experience were levels above what I could have hoped for. After several days in court, my case was ultimately dismissed and I have resumed my career as if this investigation and court-martial never happened. I had both Christopher and a military appointed lawyer and the difference in experience was night and day. I can’t imagine what would have happened if I only had a military attorney. Several of the people in the ring went with just military attorneys and they either plead guilty or were found guilty. Christopher gave me confidence in my case and would always check up on me during this long process. He was calm and gave me good advice that lead to my innocence. He was well worth the money and I would hire again.

First of all, I'm not a big fan of lawyers. When I got into a car accident coming home from California seeking out a lawyer was not even a considerstion. When I first saw a doctor April was whom my doctor referred me too. I was still skeptical. Fast forward 9 months and having April Bonifatto on my side was absolutely the right decision. She is professional, caring, and has integrity in all she does. I would say we need more lawyers like April. But, if they were all like her I'd have to give up all of my lawyer jokes. April put me at ease after our first call. She kept me updated throughout the process and always had what was best for me in her mind. She made sure to negotiate with the insurance companies and medical providers for what was best for me. If you find yourself in an undortunate situation where you need an injury lawyer April Bonifatto is the real way to go!

I was in a car accident that required surgery and several years of physical therapy. I was pretty apprehensive about getting a lawyer involved since I'd never had need of one prior to this. I waited a couple of years before reaching out to Coughlin & Gerhart at a coworker's recommendation. And I honestly wish I did it sooner. Bob Jones got in contact with me soon after and helped me through everything. He listened to everything I had to say involving the accident, all the treatments I had gone through, what I was still going through, and how the injury has affected my life. He is extremely knowledgeable, explained everything in easy to understand ways, and gave me clear choices in how to approach the case. He took everything I said into account, developed a plan based on that, and got me a fair settlement. I highly recommend both Bob Jones, his team, and Coughlin & Gerhart.

Although as professional as he is, Ron can be very laid back, and is great at maintaining equal energy with his clients.

I have been a trial attorney for over fifteen years. When I was injured in a car wreck, I looked carefully for an injury attorney who: a) would take away all of the hassle and stress of personally having to deal with claims adjusters and opposing counsel; b) would not only keep me informed on a regular basis of the status of my case, but proactively make sure I was doing all the things I needed to do on time; c) knew Personally Injury law thoroughly -- both substantively and with demonstrated litigation experience -- from the claims stage all the way through courtroom litigation; and, d) MOST IMPORTANTLY, one who was not afraid to seek the best possible outcome in my case aggressively. (I have been around enough attorneys to know that many are either afraid of litigation/trial, or they want to take the first or second counter offer from the other side because it's quick money in the bank.) Elizabeth exceeded my expectations on all four of my requirements. I consider myself to be pretty on the ball with my to-do checklists, but sometimes when I slacked on sending in treatment reports to the firm, for example, she would email me personally reminding me to get a, b, or c done, and would also update me with that status of the case/negotiation so I always understood exactly where things were. In addition, on our second settlement obtained (the UIM claim), Elizabeth was actually confident that she could get the other side to an even better number than she'd already negotiated. It was me who let her know that I trusted that she could, but that just for my peace of mind I wanted to settle at the good enough number she already obtained and move on with my life. She would have kept fighting, though, and with confidence. I know another attorney who also retained her and came away also completely pleased with the communication and with the outcome. 100 % recommendation for Elizabeth Welch!

You know how it is when you get advice from a lawyer, a doctor, an accountant... and you never know where they're coming from..? Are they advising you on the easiest out for them? Are they telling you EVERYTHING you need to know? Are there any other angles that you should know about before you make a major life decision? That's how I felt when I first started working with Michael Lovins. I was referred to him by my sister who couldn't stop raving about how wonderful he was, but I still had my doubts. I mean, these guys make their money from our accidents, right? And I'm probably just another file on his desk. Well, that's where I was happily proven wrong. I wasn't just another file on Micheal's desk, in fact - I felt like I was even more than just another client. Michael treated me like I was his own daughter and gave me the same advice he would give her if she was in my situation. How do I know? I asked! Michael was always supportive. He made sure I got all the care I needed. He reached out to my doctors and hospitals and negotiated reduced fees and he always delivered his services with a smile and a reassuring voice.

I was not even a client. I posted a question on this website and he answered me. When I e-mailed him with a full length explanation he called me and told be exactly what I needed to do. He then called be back again to tell me more of what I needed that he had remembered. I am very thankful that he would take the time out of his day to do this.

I would highly recommend Tom from Cesta Legal. Filing bankruptcy has to be one of the scariest financial things a person can go through. There is no way I would have gotten through it with out Tom. From start to finish he was there every step of the way. You are dealing directly with the lawyer, not a paralegal, or other admin. If you want the best help to get through one of the toughest times of your life. This is your guy!

Tom is an excellent, experienced, and compassionate attorney. He assisted me with a Chapter 13. I was humiliated and embarrassed when I went to see him for our first consult. He was so very kind and helpful and not judgmental at all. All ended well and he was there for any questions I had throughout the process. I highly recommend him.

I worked with Mark Barbour based on the recommendation of a family member, and couldn’t have been happier with the results. While I hope to never have a personal injury needing assistance again, I would use, and recommend, him in a heartbeat. He was easy to work with, would work around my schedule, so I could mail in papers and have phone updates rather then driving out to his office. He dealt with the insurance companies, the medial billing departments, and collections on my behalf, and took care of everything. He could be reached easily by phone and email (even returning email inquiries same day on the weekends). He met and exceeded my expectations. The settlement was more then expected. Very happy customer.

Josh met with me in regards to my divorce and was very compassionate and understanding. He always had mine and my sons best interest in mind. The divorce was complete in 6 months and he was with me every step of the way, making sure I understood everything that was happening. Afterwards he did estate planning for me to ensure I would have no worries about my sons well-being should something happen to me. Josh was great and I have referred others to him and would go back to him for my future needs.

Mr. Tanis helped me with setting up my estate plan and trust for my children. He was very helpful and thorough during the entire process. He made sure that everything was spelled out carefully in order that it could be implemented smoothly when it is needed. He included many things that I would have not thought of. I had delayed in having my estate plan done because I thought it was going to be very complicated. He made it easy for me, beginning to end. This was the second time I have worked with him. He did a partnership agreement for me last year for my business. He did a great job with that and with this estate plan.

George represented me in a personal injury case (ped. vs auto). Contacting a lawyer and beginning legal proceedings can be a very stressful, overwhelming, and emotionally draining process. I can summarize my experience by saying this: George knows what he is doing. He knows his field and he has his clients best interests at heart. If you are considering hiring a personal injury attorney, I would highly recommend George Kindley and his team. They are professional, thorough, and you can rest assured that you are receiving top notch legal representation. Thank you Kindley & Associates!

George Kindley represented our family in a case of Elder Abuse which resulted in the loss of a family member. The facts were clearly in our favor yet the opposing entities continually put up roadblocks to demoralize us and try to "discourage" George. Not once in this almost four year battle did George give any indication of giving up or wanting to "throw in the towel" just to get it over with. We were constantly amazed at his tenacity, his knowledge of the law, and his courage to stand up to hostile opposition. The long hours of preparation: airline flights far from home and family for depositions and hearings; the seemingly never ending rescheduling of court dates. We saw George go through this and more which often left us wondering, "How does he do it?" His office kept us informed of our progress every step of the way, and were always there for a phone call or Email. Even if it was just to ask "How are you doing?" I believe our case meant a lot to George. The outcome was more than we could have imagined. We are forever grateful to Mr. Kindley.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You

A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.

If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.

When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?

Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:

  • Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
  • Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
  • Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
  • Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
  • Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
  • Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.

What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?

A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
  • Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
  • Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
  • Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
  • Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
  • Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.

How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?

Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
  • Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.

Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a car accident lawyer is generally based on the contingency fee arrangement. General estimates include:

  • Contingency fee percentage: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. For example, if you receive a $100,000 settlement and the lawyer's fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000, and you'd keep the remaining $67,000.
  • Case expenses: Additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness costs, and administrative fees can range from $1,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.

Ensure you get a clear explanation of fees and expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Car Accident Lawyer

Before hiring a car accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:

  1. What experience do you have with car accident cases?
    Confirm the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, especially involving serious injuries or complex liability issues.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial.
  5. Will you handle my case personally?
    Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement.
  6. What kind of compensation can I expect?
    Ask about the types of damages you may be entitled to, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

How to Check the Credibility of a Car Accident Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  • Review their experience: Look for specialization in personal injury and car accident cases.
  • Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
  • Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
  • Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:

  • Police report: A copy of the accident report filed by the police.
  • Medical records: Documentation of your injuries, treatments, and medical expenses.
  • Photos and videos: Any visual evidence from the accident scene and of your injuries.
  • Insurance information: Copies of your insurance policy and any correspondence with insurance companies.
  • Witness information: Contact details and statements from any witnesses.
  • List of questions: Prepared questions about your case and the legal process.

Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
