After experiencing an awful car accident and overwhelmed with all that comes next, I can honestly say that I would not trust anyone else, other than Chad and his amazing team (especially Viviana) at Rankin and Gregory. They broke every step down into digestible pieces- were kind, professional, compassionate, timely, caring, and understanding. They took the time to make sure they had all of the pieces, and I was able to really focus on recovery while they focused on all of the legal pieces. I am so thankful and grateful for their hard work, and positive outcome to my case. Highly (and that is an understatement) recommend this firm. 10/10.

I contacted Nicholas (Niko) Veronis after I was in a serious car accident. Niko's ability to make a tough situation for me a very easy and relaxed situation is one of his greatest traits. He is a very caring and thorough attorney and is readily available. I would recommend Niko to any one in need of an injury attorney. Niko is very professional and detail oriented. I was awarded a fair settlement and I owe it all to this incredible attorney. Thank you Niko for all your hard efforts in my case. Respectively, Judy

Attorney Veronis ("Niko") is the BEST! We hired him after my husband was kicked in the head by a horse in a car accident. Yes, bizarre. I didn't know where to turn. I was confused about the law and our rights. My husband was seriously injured. A friend and colleague recommended Attorney Veronis. I called and left a message. Within hours, he called back and talked on the phone with us, explaining everything. The next day we went to his office, had an excellent conversation in which he clearly outlined our options and put us at ease. He even gave me a copy of the book on personal injury that he and his partner have written. We hired him that day. In less than six weeks, Niko had settled our case seamlessly and in the most professional manner. We feel truly blessed to have him as our attorney.

My sincere thanks to Nicholas Veronis and his staff for helping me and my family when I found myself in need of a lawyer as a result of a horrific bicycle accident. We were in uncharted waters and had no idea what to do. From his initial visit to the skilled nursing facility (where I resided for 4 months totally bedridden) to the rehab hospital and to visiting me at my sister's home where I continued my convalescence until I was able to return to my own home, Niko's personal concern for my well-being and recovery/rehab efforts never waivered. I was able to focus on healing and Niko worked with the insurance companies and all my medical providers resolving a myriad of billing issues, etc. I am extremely happy to have this behind me and to have reached a settlement allowing me to move forward with my life. I highly recommend Niko Veronis and his firm to anyone in need of their thorough and conscientious services.

Two years ago my husband and I were in a terrible car accident, we were hit by a drunk driver. A very good friend recommended that we call Wes Addington. Both of us thank God everyday, we had Attorney Wes in our corner. He was not just our attorney, he was our friend, we always felt better after talking with him. He walked us through our nightmare. Wes and his staff treated us so kind, and kept us "in the loop" about everything. We came to the end of our settlement and Wes got us the maximum amount we could get. When he called to tell us, we just sat and cried. I can not say enough about Wes and his team! My husband and I said God certainly sent us an angel when we went to Wes. I can not say enough about him!!!

I needed to hire an attorney. I initially consulted another attorney in the area who refused to take over my case because he said there was no damages in it (e.g., money). I disagreed because I was legitimately injured. I asked him to recommend another attorney and Randall was the name of an attorney he gave me. From my first meeting with Randall, he was professional, courteous, honest about the circumstances & legalities of my case, and treated me with dignity and respect. He took my case because he saw the harm done to me, even if it was not millions of dollars' worth of damages. Throughout the process, Randall and his staff were responsive and kind, yet fought diligently on my behalf. I would highly recommend Randall to anyone in need of assistance. Being a lawyer is not just about making money, but about obtaining justice for the little person - and Randall lives this out.

I was involved in a serious car crash two and a half years ago resulting in serious injuries and loss of my vehicle. My experience with Jeff Gutkowski was the best! He is a first rate individual and excellent attorney! I couldn't have asked for a more knowledgeable, understanding or professional individual. He explained everything to me in terms I could understand. He was extremely patient and always ready to talk to me or answer any question I might have. I am grateful for Jeff's knowledge, hard work and dedication toward helping me obtain settlement of my case. I highly recommend him. You won't be disappointed.

Jeff is truly a Lawyer that you should and will be honored to have on your case. After numerous tries to have a Lawyer listen to my case I gave up. But one day I got a call from Atlee Hall and it was Jeff and his paralegal that was on the other line to listen to me because my mother had reached out and told my story. Jeff is an amazing lawyer, he is very very intelligent but not arrogant. He has always gone above and beyond what I thought a lawyer should've. Over the past 4 years, he was always their for me and my family! He is Professional, Patient and Passionate in all he does. Jeff has always made me feel like I was the only case that he had to deal with even though I know that is not the case. He always did what was in my best interest. He will never know just how much he and the wonderful people at Atlee Hall have effected my life positively, and how highly I will think of them each and every day!!! If you are looking for just any lawyer I would recommend to keep looking BUT if you want a lawyer that will make a difference in the end, someone that you will consider a friend from shortly after you meet him and then for the rest of your life, someone that when he tells you something you can count on it to be true because you know that he has never lied or steered you wrong before and that he will fight and do everything possible to get the most he can for you and your family... then I suggest that you Call and ask to speak with Jeff Gutkowski.     (Truly a Special Person, I never expected to meet but will always be honored and more than grateful that my family had you on our side every step of this "Long Journey") P.S: He did win a very large settlement for me but that is not why I'm writing this review! Even if he would've lost I would still feel the same way about Jeff. He truly is one of those people that will leave a lasting impression on you for the rest of your life, if you are lucky enough to have him as your Lawyer.

We turned to attorney Jeffrey Gutkowski when other attorneys declined to help us get justice for our daughter. He was very understanding and made sure he had all the details. He did a wonderful job of explaining the process and making sure our daughter had an understanding of want to expect. Jeff was very diligent with our case and fought for us all the way. It was a long process but we felt very comfortable in Jeff's capable hands. We were very pleased with how he handled our case and with the result of the case. He truly works for his clients and looks out for them.

This has got to be the most backwards, uncaring lawyer I've ever worked with. He doesn't contact you for MONTHS, and oftentimes when he does contact you, it's to tell you he has something AGAINST you and not FOR you, then he disappears for a few more months as time ticks away with the statute of limitations. He managed to answer his phone about 5% of the time he was called, and never called back when asked to in voicemails. He eventually sent a letter with a bunch of bunk he got from the opposition lawyer, and believed every single word they sent, while in the same letter dropping us because the opposition lawyer tried to make the car accident victim look crazy. Seriously! He promised to send some papers to review, but they never came, until 3 months after the promise, when he sent the letter of dropping of the case. To recap: No contact for months, rarely answers, and seemingly works with the opposition lawyers and not you. I hope he changes, and the person reading this has a better experience than me.

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.
