My son had an accident in 2017 where he was cited. The insurance said he wasn't covered because he was delivering for a business. I called so many firms/lawyers for help. But, Joe Scone was the only one willing to help me. 2 years later, we have been served a complaint and Joe helped me navigate through. He is honest, responds quickly to your calls/inquiries and helpful. I would certainly recommend him to friends and acquaintances.

Angela was the "best" part of my divorce, besides getting divorced! She was professional, always explained everything to me and just nice to be around. I loved Chris her assistant she never made me feel bad for calling for asking a question, no matter how much I called. The decisions to hire Angela was the best decision I made besides getting divorced!

I found her to be a well rounded lawyer she helped me immensely. Not overpriced she worked with me and her administrative assistant was just lovely. She returned my calls made herself available and without judgement or "attitude" so glad I chose her.

Angela got me through a rough divorce and was absolutely wonderful. She answered my calls, letters and emails promptly and her assistant Chris is the best.
I would highly recommend Angela if you're needing a hard working, knowledgeable lawyer who prides herself on honesty, integrity and high morals- She won't beat around the bush- she will give you her honest opinion along with being patient and understanding.
She doesn't stoop to sling mud or try destroy others reputations- she takes the high road. She's a class act and I can't say enough about her or Chris.
They handled me with kid gloves and I knew they were beside me the whole way. If I ever need a lawyer- Angela's the one.

From the beginning, Mrs. Mary Ann Morgan handled my auto accident with compassion and professionalism! She is extremely knowledgable and went above and beyond, and wrote a letter to one of the Top Neurosurgeons in the Orlando Area, asking (begging) him to please accept me as a patient so I can get the best care possible! I have the upmost respect for her and her staff and would recommend her to my friends and family. She is, "Simply The Best!"

Mary Ann is one of the kindest, most knowledgeable attorneys around. She has helped me so much in the past and I would highly recommend her. She is honest, trustworthy and knows the law and will do everything in her power to help you when you are injured due to someone else's neglect. I give her a 11 on a scale of 1-10. Can't go wrong with her and her team.

Mary Ann took over a case that a local attorney failed to address. She could not have been more professional, went out of her way to make my wife who was the accident victim comfortable, and while we didn't anticipate a large settlement Mary Ann could not have done more. An exceptional attorney!!

Mr Harris has been a blessing to myself and my family. He saved my professional career of over 20 years. He is very knowledgeable and skilled at what he does. He is also a man of God so if you have a God fearing, professional and knowledgeable defense attorney..no way can you lose.

I have spoken with Attorney Harris on several occasions and he truly impressed me with his knowledge and ability to understand and interpret the law and wording of legal matters. He was able to explain it to me in simple words what certain aspects of a contract meant . Some of the things may not have been what I wanted to hear, but is better to have a lawyer who tells your the truth, rather them mislead you. The matters were resolved, but if they had proceeded I would have hired Attorney Harris.

At first glance, you would think Ms. Fallat-Pucylowski is too young to be practicing law, then you are quick to see has been a member of the Florida Bar for 16 years. She was a 22 year old Assistant State Attorney, a Assistant Public Defender in 2 Districts, Assistant Attorney General (then assigned to their Anti-Trust Division), and worked at the world renowned Keller Rohrback L.L.P firm, and personally in charge of the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill complex litigation. I went to her because of her resume. She handled my family law matters. She will be my personal Attorney for life!

Very grateful she was in Brevard when I needed her.

My husband and I want to express our sincere appreciation for the exceptional legal services provided by Keith Kilpatrick and his firm, Kilpatrick & Newlin. Keith came highly recommended by several people in the community and he exceeded our expectations. With Keith's expertise and tenacity, my husband's case was dismissed.
Thank you, Keith, for your professionalism, understanding, and profound compassion throughout this process. Your expertise and guidance have been invaluable, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have been represented by someone we could trust and who fought hard for us. My family is forever grateful!

Mr. Kilpatrick represented me in a complex divorce case. I was very impressed with his knowledge of the law and that he always called me back within24 hours of me calling him. He showed up prepared to every court date and most of all he did not judge me. He treated me like a person and made me feel comfortable. I would and do recommend Mr. Kilpatrick and his firm to all of my family and friends.
Thanks again Mr. Kilpatrick,

Getting in a car accident is terrifying. The thought of dealing with lawyers over it was even more terrifying for me. I was very hesitant at first because I was a 20 year old girl, knew nothing about lawyers, and have heard many lawyer horror stories. Working with Dan and his team put all my fears to rest. They made me feel comfortable, explained everything to me in detail, answered all my questions, kept me up to date on progress in my case, and respected all my choices. They were amazing and exceeded all my expectations. I hope, as anyone would, that I never get into another car accident, but if I did, Dan Glassman’s office would be my first call.

Mr. Bowen mediated a complicated and contentious lawsuit that I was involved in. After mediating for more than 5 hours, and almost giving up a couple of times, the case settled. Mr. Bowen was patient, persistent, and kept us focused on the important issues. He is a true professional and I highly recommend him as a mediator.

Attorney Bowen represented me 3 years ago when I was in a car accident, He did an amazing job and although I am sure he had many other cases treated me and my case as if I and my case were his most important. This is something you just don't seem find much of anymore. I recommended him to a friend of mine and now He's currently helping ahim with an insurance dispute. In my opinion, He's a great lawyer and I highly recommend him".

This is by far the best attorney that I could have hired. When I first contracted him, I was at a certain point in which I wouldn't have been very surprised if I lost my case. But now, after almost two years of effort, I'm sure that it was an excellent decision to have him as my lawyer, for I'm about to finish the case. Thank you.

My pregnant wife was rear-ended by a high school texting driver and was quite alarmed over a number of issues that could arise from the wreck. After quickly consulting with Mr. Williams, we immediately found a sense of calm and knew were in the right hands. Joel gave us a quick list of action items to take care of immediately before engaging with him further. Our issues were resolved very quickly based on the advice given by Mr. Williams and if any other issue like this arises again, Joel will be the first attorney I reach out to. He is very knowledgeable and quick to respond, which is exactly what you need in a scenario like this.

Mr. Guzi is highly knowledgeable and takes the time to think about the small details not just the big picture. Sometimes attorneys may forget to take the time and listen to the client to understand their needs and goals in regards to their case but also will give you realistic expectations. Would absolutely recommend Mr. Guzi to anyone in the future.

Divorce and child custody are tricky. Unfortunately, I’ve been through years of court battles. I finally felt confident in my attorney when I retained Mark Sessums. He is the consummate professional, extremely savvy, and kept me on the right track. Mark not only handled delicate situations with finesse, but also responded aggressively when needed. He took care of it and that is what I needed. He greatly reduced the amount of stress I felt because I knew I was in excellent hands. I highly recommend Mark Sessums.

Mark Sessums helped me with my divorce case, he was kind, understanding, and very efficient. I feel like I was represented very well in depositions and hearings. He made me feel comfortable and confident. If I ever need legal representation again, Mr. Sessums will definitely be my first call. His staff was helpful, kind, and very patient. He won my case, got me everything I wanted and I know my ex wishes he called Sessums first!

I found myself at a point in my life after counseling, therapy, and lots of prayers where divorce was the avenue for me to take. I hired an attorney and started the process to find out after tens of thousands of dollars and wasted time that I needed a different attorney. I began my research and decided I wanted to get the best representation possible regardless of how much it was going to cost. I spoke to retired judges, attorneys, and anyone who might know a bit about the divorce process. I was confident after research that Mark Sessums was my guy. Mark and his team were professional every step of the way. They showed complete loyalty to me and I truly felt his entire team was on my side. Mark and his team showed a personal interest in how I was doing through the entire process. All said and done my divorce was finalized effectively and efficiently. I spent far less on attorney fees than what the research indicated. I am usually not one to offer recommendations for people as people tend to surprise me daily but I would without doubt recommend Mark and his team, they are the best!

My sister never had any issues or signs before and one night she had an episode and ended up in a facility. Our family had never had anything like this happen to us before and didn't know where to turn.
We had a very good experience with the Baker Act Attorneys Team. From the intake call to working with our attorney Cory Charlesworth, the experience was great. We got the outcome we wanted and the money was worth peace of mind having someone to battle the system for you.

If you find yourself needing an attorney, Steven Ganim, is the attorney to choose!
Steven represented me for a Real Estate case and he didn't just represent me he educated me, respected me, and ensured I was in trusted hands. Steven's communication and follow through is impeccable. His integrity, intelligence and commitment definitely shone through. Regardless of his case load (I would have no idea but I would have to assume it is large due to his ability) you will feel as if you are his only client and his #1 priority! I highly recommend Steven and Ganim Law Group.

When a family member was involved in an accident, Mr. Ellis was always on point with the insurance companies. He took extra time, even outside normal business hours, to explain every step of the process to put us at ease. He obviously understands how insurance companies work and how their lawyers, and other parties' lawyers, can sometimes be less than honest! Mr. Ellis always responded to my calls and emails. I have found him to be open, honest, competent, and tough! I would highly recommend him!

Clay was the right lawyer at the right time. I was rear ended and had to have two disc replacements. His manner was aggressive when that was needed but also one of the most compassionate people I’ve ever met. He truly cares about his clients. His staff always made sure that my calls were returned promptly. They were also extremely knowledgeable throughout the whole process. I know he has handled some huge cases but I felt like my case was always a priority with him. My settlement check was substantial which was such a blessing. You won’t go wrong if you hire Clay!

The Podor Law Firm was invaluable in helping my company through a challenging time. Before working with The Podor Law Firm we had several accounts that were late on payments and were taking advantage of our previous contract that lacked several key points that protected our business practices. The team at Podor Law not only went out of their way to ensure our company received all the outstanding balances from late accounts. They were able to re-write our current contracts so that we would not be in the same situation again. Jesse was beyond responsive, helpful and knowledgeable. We now run our business with more confidence because we know that The Podor Law Firm has our best interest.

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.
