Mr. Kirby Mouser displayed professionalism throughout my entire case, he's very relaxed but I was in awe of his expertise at my social security hearing. But what really made an impression on me after the hearing he allowed me to express my concerns and he answered all of my questions, and I totally appreciated that. He could of rushed me off but he didn't. He made me feel like he's rooting for me to get my life back on track. Yes I will definitely recommend him to friends, and associates.

I have never met such an honest, hard working, and caring group of people at the Mulkey Law Firm. Bruce and his team are very knowledgeable and are there for you. They care about getting you a fair settlement and won’t settle for less! I highly recommend them and would use them again if needed.

As an experienced attorney, I know what it takes to win cases. Frank Bailey stands out as an excellent attorney. When I need help on a complex case, I go to Frank Bailey because he listens. He looks you in the eyes and really listens to hear what happened in your case. And he listens with his heart -- with compassion. That's the key to success. Once he learns and really understands your story, then he consistently applies the best legal practices to win fair compensation through great pre-trial settlements and at trial.

As a result of a major motor vehicle accident in Massachusetts (due to the fault of another individual), my wife and I both sustained multiple traumatic injuries. Recognizing our need to engage a personal injury attorney, we consulted with others knowledgeable in the legal field and one name was always at the very top of their recommended list - FRANK BAILEY! Following our initial consult with Mr. Bailey, we were convinced he was the attorney we wanted to represent us. With wisdom, compassion and gentleness in relieving our anxieties, Frank provided excellent expertise resulting in a satisfactory and favorable settlement. Like the advice given to us, my wife and I will likewise put the name of Frank Bailey at the very top of our recommended personal injury attorney list!

26 Feb, 2020 by Thomas

I am an attorney and had co-counseled with Frank in the past. His expertise, work ethic and knowledge was excellent and impressive. Recently, my wife and I were in a serious car wreck caused by another driver and Frank was my first choice of attorneys. The outcome was typical of Frank's work and we were not disappointed. I rate him an 11 out of 10 possible points.

I had a bench warrant out for my arrest with a couple traffic violations tagged onto it. It was passed by a couple of years and could have turned into something serious. George and his staff were very professional and understanding of my situation. They kept their promises and kept me from going to jail. They presented themselves on my behalf in court. I only had to meet with an officer to acknowledge and sign paper work. Amongst the COVID pandemic, everything was done at a timely manner. The more facts and honesty you give to your lawyer, the more they have to work with making your case run more smoothly.

28 Aug, 2019 by Josephine

I have worked with George and McManus Law Firm multiple times. He is always transparent about what he thinks about a case, asks great clarifying questions, and better yet, gets the job done. Something I appreciate most about working with George is the Integrity that he and his team bring to the table. I am always confident he will help in good faith, and he thinks about what is best for the client. He is very much so "If I put myself in your shoes..." type of person with the abilities and skills to handle that professionally and successfully in resolving a legal matter. The team he has put together is amazing as well, and they always kept me updated on the case & answered my questions. Each time I called his office with a question, they were familiar with my case (no matter the size) and always provided me with an answer. If there was ever any uncertainty, they were direct and honest about it, and then call back with a definite confirmation. In addition to his team members reaching out with updates, George also called me personally throughout the case and was there to speak to his previous actions, recommendations, and next steps. He's reliable and dependable. I strongly recommend George McManus and his team to anyone in need of legal assistance.

Very good service, George takes the time to clarify all my doubts, the girls at the reception are always very nice, I have been using George's lawyer service since 2011 and I have always been satisfied

I had lost my son and after hiring another attorney. He recommended Mr Hall come in with us , and that was the best thing that ever happened my son got justice ! And now I I am getting him to help with my mothers case . so I would highly recommend him as I had to hunt for him for. My mothers case because he had switched law firms !!!!!

22 Jul, 2015 by Anonymous

I wanted a lawyer that I could trust and would want what is best for me in my specific situation. After doing some research, I found Randy's website and was immediately intrigued. After having a sit down meeting, I could tell Randy was a genuine person who honestly wanted to help me - and that is exactly what he did. Whenever I had questions or concerns, he was eager to explain and never took longer than an a couple hours to return my calls. I highly recommend Randy for his professionalism, trustworthiness, and his high knowledge of the ins and outs of law. 5 stars all around - you'd be a fool to not hire Randy Hall.

I called every lawyer i could find and no one would take my case. A friend of a friend told me to try Mr. Hall and i did. He took my case and did magic. Thank you so much! My family is forever greatful for helping us when no one else would. Mr. Hall made sure we knew what was going on every step of the way and made us feel comfortable. He was able to break the process down so there were no surprises. He was nice and easy to talk to not like some of the lawyers we contacted. He knows the law inside and out.

I just want to let people that look at this website know what a great bunch of men and women you guys are. Six years ago my family went through the most horrific experience. Our 9 year old daughter had a stroke and had to have a mechanic valve put into her heart.i contacted Rainwater,Holt and Sexton and was put into contact with Bob Sexton. For the last 6 years no matter when I need him he's always been there for me. I don't know what I would have done without these wonderful People. They truly care about people that they represent and their families. Thank you again,you guys are the best.

Bob represented my daughter in a case where she was injured on another person's property. He was prompt, professional and very knowledgeable. I would recommmend him to anybody needing a personal injury attorney.

11 Feb, 2013 by Chad

Mr. Sexton handled my auto accident case last year, and I couldn't have been happier with him and his staff. He was always available to speak with me about my case, and answered all my questions in a way that made sense to me. Although he was very professional, he is very personable and I felt more like I was dealing with a friend than an attorney. I would highly recommend Mr. Sexton and his firm, and would certainly use him again.

Jon has been helping me with my probate case since my husband passed away. He has done a great job, and has been there for me through every step of the case. At times, I was very stressed and upset that I wouldn't be able to deal with the whole process, but Jon and his staff were there to take some of that stress off my shoulders, and help me not just with the legal side of things, but also with the emotional stress the death of my husband caused. I will use Jon in any other legal proceedings that may arise.

When I first found Mr. Hixson, I only spoke with him over the phone but he immediately put me at ease. Once I actually met him in person, I felt an instant connection, something I had not felt with my previous attorney. Mr. Hixson was kind, knowledgeable, sympathetic, and I knew that he was going to do his best to help me. He asked a lot of questions and took a lot of notes which made me feel he was very interested in who I was and the situation I was dealing with. No matter how many stupid questions, I asked he was patient and explained everything in great detail. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. Thank you again!

Kenneth has represented my company and me personally in a number of legal matters over the last five years. He worked tirelessly to settle these matters but was at all times ready to take each to court to protect our interest. His easy going personality goes a long way with other attorneys in finding equatible way to settle legal matters. His business background is also a plus and his ethics are beyond reproach. I would highly recommend Kenneth to anyone needing an experienced attorney for business or personal matters.

This guy's a great lawyer! And easy to talk to .. no one else would touch my motorcycle accident case because I have a suspended license, even though it was 100% their fault. Well Phil took my case, and within 2 weeks the other party's insurance accepted full liability for the accident. After getting me treated and back on my feet, he negotiated a great settlement for me, and even got the hospital to waive some of THIER fees .. ggreat overall experience!! HIRE THIS GUY!

From the day of our first contact until our final meeting, we received amiable, astute, & prompt service. Trevor executed laudable representation for my family; consistently going above and beyond to take care of us. We hired Trevor for a lawsuit against a corporation due to trauma our child endured as a result of their negligence. It was a very sensitive topic that was difficult to simply discuss. He was compassionate, encouraging, and never pushed the boundaries of our comfort level. We decided to settle without a trial because of the emotional turmoil of having to extend the lawsuit. Trevor was a tiger in negotiations and my child was awarded with a satisfactory amount of money. We're grateful for him.

Trevor was in constant contact with me from star to beginning of my case.. I was awarded with the max pay out for my situation. I highly recommend mr. Townsend.. excellent jaob!!!!

Hopefully, we will not require his services again, but would be quick to recommend him to all our family members and friends. Can not say enough good things about this attorney or this firm.

I was involved in an auto accident in 2008 and was not sure which way to turn for help. Mr. Hutsell was very professional and kept me informed on the progress of my case. He was able to increase the value of my claim by utilizing coverages that were available to me that I would not have been aware of on my own.

Brandon Moffitt was my attorney over the course of about a year. He solved several issues for me related to a complicated probate case . Several attorneys were involved and I was in over my head legally. He was my primary contact and counselor regarding contracts, property settlement, will writing, gas and oil rights....everything that "came up". He resolved conflict between family members and prevented disputes during a difficult time. He is a calming, professional person, willing and capable of putting out fires. He stayed with my case until probate ended and the issues I had were resolved enough to proceed without an attorney. In other words, he saw things through and made them better while saving time and money. His fees are more than fair and he was careful about never overcharging. He often answered the telephone personally and if not, always returned calls promptly. If you've ever hired an attorney, you know how rare it is to have an open line of communication. I appreciate that most of all. I would hire him again with confidence. If you want personalized, professional, timely attention along with resolution of a legal problem, you want Brandon Moffitt.

BKM has the best traits of two generations of attorneys. He has a very modern office with some of the best legal software resources at his disposal. He leverages his skill with technology to get things done very fast - without taking any 'shortcuts'. That said, BKM is not just another attorney with a smart phone, he is also old-school connected with the chamber, the bar association and other legal associations. This is a unique and awesome combination! I have often found that if BKM doesn't know the answer- he knows where to get it from. If you are paying by the hour- this helps keep the price down, and if you are paying for a fixed-fee;

I made the mistake of hiring a law firm from Little Rock. After asking for information that was costing me money, and after almost 2 years of back and forward and dealing with disrespectful "Account Managers" from the firm, they sent a letter stating they would no longer represent me. I heard of Tim Smith through another lawyer and during the first meeting, he sent a letter to the insurance company, requesting payment for my personal injury. Within a week we had a first offer and that same day, he negotiated the amount we wanted. He is the best lawyer I have seen. I can say this with confidence. My sister, brother, cousins are all lawyers in another state and I can truly say, Tim impressed me. The best lawyer in Arkansas (Don't want to offend my family members who are lawyers outside Arkansas) so let's just say Best lawyer in Arkansas... I already recommended him to someone close who had an accident.

I was involved in an accident while pregnant, which is incredibly stressful and scary. Everyone at Keith Law Group was caring from the get go, answered any questions I had along the way, and remained professional and personable throughout the entire process. Seth, Stacey, and Maria worked tirelessly for months on my behalf, and truly seemed to want the best outcome for me. When my husband and I had to go to their office - we were treated with respect, and never once did we feel like just a number on their spreadsheets. We were seen, heard, and genuinely taken care of. I HIGHLY recommend them if you ever need to navigate the headache of insurance after being involved in an accident. Thank you Keith Law Group!

I was arrested for DWI and causing an accident. Louis and his staff were very attentive to my case. Louis recommended that I take my case to trial. I was afraid, Because I knew my case also included an accident that I had caused with another car. Louis defended me at trial, and I was found not guilty of the DWI. Louis had already negotiated that my ticket for failure to yield would not go on my driving record. I am extremely satisfied. If I could rate Louis with 6 stars out of 5, I would.

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.

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.
