MR. CLARKE A NAME I WILL REMEMBER. IN DEALING WITH ATTORNEYS PERIOD KIND OF CAN GET A BAD RAP, BECAUSE THEY WERE PRETTY MUCH ALL THE SAME TO A DEGREE. VERY HELPFUL AND PROMISING IN THE BEGINNING UNTIL THEY GET YOUR MONEY AND THEN U FEEL LIKE A AFTER THOUGHT AND THAT I WAS BOTHERING THEM. BUT MY EXPERIENCE WITH MR. CLARK WAS TOTALLY DIFFERENT HE WAS BLOUNT AND TO THE POINT AND I CAN APPRECIATE PEOPLE LIKE THAT TO LET ME KNOW WHAT IM WORKING WITH AND THE POSSIBILITIES. HE WAS VERY ATTENTIVE AND LISTENED TO ALSO WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR AS IF IT DID MATTER. ALWAYS ANSWERED MY CALLS AND I FELT LIKE HE CARED ENOUGH TO FIGHT FOR AND TO GO ABOUT IT IN A WAY TO GET THE RESULTS WE WERE LOOKING FOR . GOD KNOWS I PRAY AND BELIEVE I WONT HAVE TO USE HIM AGAIN BUT I DO THANK GOD FOR PUTTING HIM IN MY PATH AND I WOULD REFER HIM BELIEVE ME TO ANYONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR A GREAT CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY THIS MAN WAS AWESOME. SO LAID BACK, PASSIONATE, VERY PROFESSIONAL AND TRULY GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES. NEED I SAY I HAD CHECKED AROUND PRIOR TO COMING IN CONTACT WITH HIM AND HIS FEES ARE PHENOMENAL. BUT REALLY I COULD NEVER PAY HIM WHAT HIS WORTH WAS TO ME. MR. CLARK GOD BLESS YOU, MAY GOD CONTINUE TO KEEP YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN GOOD HEALTH AND SPIRITS SO THAT YOU MAY LIVE LIFE AND MORE ABUNDANTLY CONTINUING TO HELP OTHERS AS YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. LOVE YOU MICHELLE ( IT IS NOT EVEN 5AM IN THE MORNING BUT MY SPIRIT WOULD NOT EVEN ALLOW ME TO REST UNTIL I POSTED THIS)

When in need, everyone should be so fortunate as to have an attorney like James McCollum. Mr. McCollum helped me to pursue a work-related grievance. Right from the start it was clear that he was sharing a wealth of experience and knowledge. When I sent over my info, he and his team got right to work on checking the viability of my case. Over about a week or two, Mr. McCollum gave me regular updates on their research into relevant case law, statutes, limitations, and the challenges with each. They reviewed well-known and recent laws, as well as older and more obscure. He broke all of this down in terms I could understand, and explained how each option may or may not succeed. Mr. McCollum was upfront about challenges, possible outcomes, and realistic goals. As such, not everything was what I hoped to learn about my case. But, he helped me to make better, more informed decisions. He looked out for my best interests (where some lawyers would probably prioritize their own) and gave his time generously for my small case. Our conversations always put me at greater ease, and I got a sense of him as an honest and good man. In the end, Mr. McCollum guided me through a hard and drawn-out process. He walked me through possible motivators of the other side, costs and risks they might run into at different stages – things I think you can only learn from experience. His insight allowed me to hold ground with confidence. With his guidance, I was able to secure a workable end, and move on.

Mr. McCollum represented me in a personal injury matter. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable and confident. Dealing with the at-fault driver’s insurance company, was not easy. Although the insurance company had initially refused a settlement offer, Mr. McCollum used his expertise and ability to reach a satisfactory settlement. Mr. McCollum is extremely competent, professional and helpful. I certainly recommend Mr. McCollum for your legal needs.

Mr. McCollum represented my company in a civil suit. I was referred to Mr. McCollum and was assured that I had a good lawyer. In fact, I had a phenomenal lawyer!!!! He really knows the law, and kept me informed throughout the entire process. He always responded to my calls, questions and concerns. I never waited to here a response from him. His dedication to his profession is exemplary of what all legal professionals should aspire to do. I not only recommend Mr. McCollum and his law firm, I strongly encourage ANYONE who is need, to contact THIS LAWYER. I guarantee that you will receive the same level of commitment and dedication to your legal matters.

I live in the charles county area. I was recently almost potentially convicted with a charge that would effect my job. Andy talked me through everything; all of the possibilities and all of the paths that my case could go. He is not one to sugarcoat but the reality of whatever complicated situation you may be in is explained thoroughly and intellectually. I had serious doubts about my case but Andy was ready for battle. I felt like no matter what situation I was in, he would be willing to persevere with determination and confidence. He was prepared for the outcomes that not even I had imagined could be possible with my case. Not to mention the commute he took to represent me in court. & the procedures he went through to save me time & money. Andy is professional, kind, and extremely educated in his field. I will say I am hoping that I don't ever need a lawyer again. BUT if I do ! I know who I'm going to :)! Thank you Andy !

After thirty five years with the company, only missing time out due to two pregnancies, I got hurt at work. One would think after all these years with the company one would know what to do. To my surprise, people were saying you can't file a workers’ comp claim, the company will fire you or make your life miserable. I called many different law firms and they would not take my case. It was looking very gloomy until someone recommended Will Inman to me. He is very knowledgeable, straight forward, patient and very clear with every step of the way. All one has to do is follow his instructions. He gives you top priority which makes you feel like you are his only client. His office is very busy and the staff is very competent. Will is a professional who makes you feel at ease. He is one person who will call you back by the end of day. He understands what the client is going through. Everything is done in a timely manner. Will is highly regarded by his peers and the judges. He works long hours especially over the weekend and you can reach him anytime. He is one of the most gifted men I have ever met. He is down to earth and very personable. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help. He has achieved all the things I needed for my pain management and the lost time from work paid. I'm very grateful for everything he has done for me. I cannot say enough for this man, he has saved my life.

Will Inman knows his business and goes about it with clarity and timeliness. You're in good hands if you have the ability to listen with an open mind and follow directions. With his "know-how" and both of you working with his competent office staff, you'll quickly recognize that you're going to get the best results possible. He acts swiftly when necessary and knows when to ride out the process. This professional behavior is the result of a man who understands how to deal with the minutia of law. As someone who is struggling, this is very important because I feel anxious about how long everything takes and whether or not I'll be able to provide for my future because my original plans no longer matter since having a life-changing accident. Will gets the "big picture" and what more could put you at ease than knowing you've found an attorney who will actively defend your legal woes for the best possible outcome. I keep reminding myself that it's difficult to see a big picture when you stand too close to it. It's necessary to stand back to observe all the techniques the artist used to create an image you can understand as a whole. To anyone who is looking for a good attorney with years of experience, I recommend that you take a step back and review Will Inman's profile to see if he can help you with your legal concerns.

Mike worked on our very complex lawsuit against a local contractor. Mike assisted in thoroughly researching case law for the trial. Mike also assisted with interviewing and selecting our expert witnesses. The experts, coupled with skilled attorneys, were the key to our win! In the courtroom, Mike was extremely helpful in keeping track of the information being presented by the defense. This proved to be very helpful as testimony can immediately affect a pre-established strategy. Mike's ability to manage and prioritize the information being revealed was critical. Mike demonstrated a great deal of respect toward the court and the court staff as well as for the proceedings of the court. He assisted us in proper court etiquette throughout the trial as well. Mike was empathetic to our emotional status during the trial, and helped to keep us focused and supported. I highly recommend Mike Ondeck and the Lusk Law Firm.

Francesca’s service and responsiveness is unparalleled. On one occasion, I call Francesca at 8AM with a request to review a contract by lunch. Francesca will review the contract and provide track changes markups by 11AM. Her reasoning for the early delivery..."so we have enough time to review the markups over the phone and you can provide additional feedback." Francesca is an AWESOME attorney, she is MY attorney.

Mr. Ferrante was professional, courteous, knowledgeable, quickly returned phone calls, answered all my questions, did an over abundance of research, and above all was honest with me, and never gave me false hope. He got me a plea bargain with the State's Attorney to drop the burglary and brought my felony theft down to a misdemeanor with probation and community service. I was facing 13 years in prison and walked away with comparably, next to nothing!

About a year ago, I was involved in a car accident, and sought Randy’s legal aid — a decision I couldn’t be happier with. From beginning to end, he was so helpful, immediately available, and communicative. What I appreciated about him was that unlike my last lawyer who found out I had experience in law and made me do the work I hired him to do, Randy treated me like he would any other client. He handled everything so efficiently, and didn’t bombard me with constant tasks or questions. He kept me in the loop and didn’t ever make me feel overwhelmed. He was able to work out a settlement I felt very happy with. I was glad he was so tech savvy, so I was able to work out the parts on my end straight from my iPhone, with no complications. It made the process so much faster and smoother. He was thoughtful and caring, sometimes checking in to ask how school’s going or shooting a quick update text with a birthday or holiday message! I never felt forgotten, he made sure I felt like a priority at all times. Any time I texted him, he responded within minutes. If I could give him 10 stars I would, but the 5 stars will have to do. If you recently were in a car accident and concussed or in any other state of injury leading you to need help but you’re avoiding it because you don’t need an even bigger headache, do yourself a favor and CALL HIM!!!

Mr. Goldberg helped me to receive the maximum settlement possible for an auto accident that left me injured. I was very fortunate to have found Jonathan Goldberg after having had a negative experience with a “highly advertised” attorney in the DC area. From the initial consultation until the final appointment to pick up my settlement check, I was never farmed out to an associate or paralegal. In every instance, he represented me and conducted himself with uncommon integrity and legal acumen. His skills were never more apparent than when I had the opportunity to watch him engage the defendants' counsel. He did so with the skills of an expert trial attorney and seasoned diplomat. I would not hesitate to ask Jonathan Goldberg to represent me again should the need arise.

If you want a lawyer worth the money and one that will watch over you, someone who will protect your information. He is the man to go to. He really knows how to negotiate as well.

My attorney, Garry Wilcox Jr., worked with me throughout the entire process, making sure everything was taken care of every step of the way. My initial incident was a frustrating one physically and emotionally. I had just graduated from college and purchased my first car, and a situation beyond my control caused another driver to rear end me while I was stopped at a red light. Just a few months into purchasing the car, I was devastated with the damages inflicted on my car, as well as on my person. I was so nervous about my injuries, as my job was physically demanding, but Garry ensured me that he would work his hardest to make sure that not a penny of lost wages would truly be lost. I felt a strong sense of comfort upon meeting with Garry and initially going through the first stages of my case. I truly felt like I had someone by my side and that would make sure that I received the aid and support that I needed during my otherwise nervous and panicked state. The hardest I worked throughout my entire case was on myself, through physical therapy and regaining my health. Everything else was fully taken care of by my attorney. Every question I had was answered immediately and fully, and I was kept in the loop every step of the way. Garry would not accept any offer of mediocrity, and I felt as though I received the best outcome possible due to his tireless efforts. I am so glad that I was able to positively resolve my case, while only having to focus on getting my strength back, and letting Garry worry about the rest. I am so lucky to have had him as my attorney, and by my side throughout this process, because i was able to just do me, while receiving the best outcome.

It took me a bunch of phone calls and horrible consultations before finding Ms. Jones to handle my worker's compensation case. I live in a smaller town where almost all of the attorneys who will talk to me about a work comp claim will set up a meeting for a lawyer who is in Baltimore in their office. The local lawyers don't take these cases, except this firm. I think they are the only ones who actually handle the work comp cases without shopping it out to another lawyer in the city. Not only did I get local service they are good lawyers too who handle a lot of different stuff.

I still get scared when I think about how my life would have been if I did not meet John. I consulted with him for my divorce case several times. He was very experienced, fair to both sides, and most importantly generous. Filing for divorce can be very emotional, complicated, ugly, and have a big impact on our lives. John sees every case from every different angle that he can think of based on facts and from a legal perspective, and thinks about what is the best choice for us in each person's circumstance. His advice could be totally different from others including lawyers and friends, but he is a lawyer we can trust as a lawyer and a person. In my case, his advice was different from all others; however, it turned out to be better for me. He literally saved my life. I cannot express with any word how much appreciation I have for him.

He kept things respectful with the other side and made sure we all got what we were entitled to under the law. John impressed me with his direct approach and honesty. He kept me from escalating things, and at the same time, prevented me from making decisions driven by emotions. I appreciate his service and respect his personality.

Our Son had two Title IX Complaints filed against him with the University of Maryland from another Student. As a Family we disagreed with the Complaint. We hired Ron and he assisted our family and represented us in the proceedings against him by the UMD Conduct Offices. The Charges filed were of a serious nature and could have lead to an expulsion from the College and would negatively effect his academic and professional career for his future. Ron planned and prepared a defense for us, prepared and filed several documents, and represented our Son in each of the investigations and hearings. His knowledge and additional interpretation of the Student Code of Conduct assisted us in having all of the charges dropped and it was determined there were no violations. We had felt our Son was treated unfairly in the investigation. Ron's diligence and pursuit of this matter along with his interpretation of the Student Conduct Rules resulted in a favorable outcome on our behalf. I would recommend Ron for any Legal Matters involved with the University of Maryland and other Legal issues needed to be resolved. His Expertise and Experience in Legal Matters provides an edge. My Family is forever grateful for his Services.

Mr. Ehlers recently obtained a settlement for me and demonstrated his resourcefulness and thorough knowledge of the law. I am very, very satisfied with the results he obtained for me. I find Mr. Ehlers to be very professional, knowledgeable, thorough, energetic and experienced. He was genuinely concerned about the best interest of me as one of his clients. He moved quickly but accurately to settle with the insurance company on my behalf. Mr. Ehlers and his Legal Assistant, Lisa Farmer, kept me well informed through both written and verbal communication. I never had to wonder about the status of my case. Mr. Ehlers even gave me his personal cell phone to use if I needed to reach him. They promptly answer telephone calls and respond to your inquiries. You can trust the Edward J.

He filed his appearance and thru 6 court cases was in talks with the DA and Judges that reduced my charges to a minor infraction. I couldnt be happier with the outcome. I recommend calling him right away with your case as to a quicker resolution that will be in your favor.

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.
