They only take clients that are assumed innocent. Someone like myself who was given a ticket for the car accident they want take on as a client. You see I had a seizure and blacked out while driving and my friend and I were both hurt and taken to the hospital.I did not know that at the time because I had never had seizures before that moment. They tested me for alcohol and drugs and I was negative for both. The officer wrote me a ticket for driving on the wrong side of the rode. I knew I had not fallen asleep but it was late in the evening so that’s what they assumed after I tested negative for alcohol and drugs So we were both injured my friend more than myself but we were both injured physically and emotionally very much. So a few more weeks go bye and I’m leaving my aunts house who I had been staying with for a few nights because she had just moved back into town from California. So long story short I wake up after sleeping almost 12hours and leave my aunts that morning and on the highway about a hour later I total my truck and it catches on fire and I’m pulled from the truck unconscious and taken to the ER where there I finally wake up to them telling me I had just been in a accident.I was alone and no one else was involved I was not arrested but I was given a dwi even though I tested negative for drugs and alcohol. So I need a lawyer for that wreck as well as my first wreck. I was hospitalized again and another concussion with more injuries. I knew immediately I had just woke up from a great night’s rest so there was no way I had fell asleep. I knew I had a medical condition.they told me I had had a seizure and blacked out. I knew that is what had happened just a few weeks earlier with my friend and I. After going home after several more days in the hospital my friend found me having seizures on the floor foaming at the mouth having convulsions. They ran outside in the caldesac screaming that I was dying inside. Several neighbors came in and saw me having the seizures and called 911. So again I black out and when I finally wake up I’m in the Emergency Room again. It has been documented that I’m having all these seizures that cause you to blackout. I’ve had a rough couple of months with test in the hospital to see if it was any infection around my heart which they found there wasn’t so it’s my brain that’s causing the seizures and I’m seeing neurologist now and taking new medications twice a day to help control the seizures. So today finally feeling good enough tocall a lawyer so I find one on Google and they have five stars so I think wow. They must be great. So I call them and talk to them for almost a hour explaining everything and as soon as they ask me my friends name and number they tell me they don’t take client’s who are guilty since I was given a ticket. I was surprised that they said there policy is that they want help someone like myself who obviously has having some kind of medical condition that he’s just learning he has. So ok I’m shocked they didn’t want to help me but the next thing I know my friend who’s name and number I had just told Teds law firm about they call and tell my friend there’s no help for me but they can help them so could they represent them against me when I had just called wanting them to help us. I’m so disappointed in there what I find unethical choice. I’m now left to find a lawyer to help me and my friends not speaking to me. This is all just devastating. I will find the right law firm to help me. A organization that cares about everyone. Teds Law Firm isn’t that Firm. 1star only because they want let me do 0star. I wanted to let you know I won in court with the lawyer I hired since TED Law wouldn’t take my case. Don’t use these ambulance chasers. Find someone who actually cares about the truth

I just spoke with Karen G. and it was a pleasure. She was very friendly and efficient with helping me supply information to her about my skip & fall. After giving her my information she put me on hold for a shot period to get approval from the attorney could take my case. Shortly after that she contacted one of their investigators and I am meeting with them within 2 hours at my home. Please thank Karen for her excellent help!!

Parker took my case in despite it not being in his firms day to day type of case. We went up against a large company that had the resources of 2 different defense terms working for them. After trying to settle and being offered nothing, Parker went into the jury trial and demonstrated his knowledge and stated the facts and proved to the jury the wrong that was done by the company and got every dollar we set out to get. He put in the work and represented me far and beyond what I would’ve ever expected. Truly can’t thank Parker enough, would recommend him and his firm to anyone hands down.

I hired Jeff Gerardi to represent me after I sustained injuries in a car accident last year. From our first meeting, Jeff was incredibly attentive and supportive of me and my situation. His professionalism and ability to empathize exceeded all of my expectations of a personal injury attorney. Jeff is very accessible, responding to all questions quickly and explaining things thoroughly. He always went way above and beyond my expectations and negotiated with the car insurance company powerfully and nimbly, settling my case for the maximum amount. Jeff made one of the most difficult times of my life so much easier, by juggling all of the details I couldn't and by being a real human being at the same time. I will forever have the deepest gratitude to Jeff for all he did for me and will always refer clients to him with my highest recommendation.

My wife and I were in a pretty bad accident, roughly a year and a half ago. A drunk driver hit us from behind, at approximately 50 miles per hour. We flipped, crashed into a tree, and I blacked out after I was torpedo'd into the back seat. I woke up in the hospital several hours later, confused, scared, and in a lot of pain. Fast forward a few days. My wife and I are in pain, and are incredibly frustrated. We've never had to deal with something like this before, and it was very daunting. After a quick Google search of lawyers in the area, we soon landed on Joye Law Firm. A short while later, we were introduced to the wonderful Jeff Gerardi, and our pre-existing fears of "evil blood sucking lawyers" melted away. Jeff was kind, patient, and very clear in his guiding us through the unknown process ahead of us. A year and a half later, my wife and I are back to full health. Jeff Gerardi helped us manuever the tricky insurance battlefields, and we walked away with enough money in our settlement to get married, pay off all of our student loans, and make a down payment on a house!! What could have been the worst event of our lives, ended up being a massive blessing in disguise. And Jeff Gerardi was the man who made it all happen for us. We couldn't recommend Jeff Gerardi, and Joye Law Firm any higher. They were simply perfect. Thanks again, guys.

As the wife of someone who has been navigating a difficult legal process, I can’t express enough gratitude for the kindness and professionalism of Sara Coy at Christmas Injury Law Firm. Throughout this journey, she has been a constant source of support, always going out of her way to not only keep things on track but to also lift our spirits. Sara has a remarkable ability to turn even the toughest moments around with her warm personality, often bringing a much-needed smile to my husband’s face after every call. Her dedication to ensuring everything runs smoothly has been a huge relief for us both. We feel incredibly lucky to have Sara working on our behalf—she’s truly made a difference in this whole experience. I would recommend Sara and Christmas Injury Law to anyone seeking not just legal expertise, but real, human compassion.

The worst experience I have had with any lawyer. Charles was outright rude did not respond to any emails or phone calls until after everything was finished and did not try to work on the case. When finally speaking to him he stated he has “more important cases” he’s working on and did not even take 5 mins to tell me anything about the case. I would never recommend this law firm or lawyer to anyone save your money and go somewhere someone actually takes the time to talk to you and get you results.

After denial with my Social Security Disability claim, I almost gave up with the appeal process before a Judge. I reached out to the Finkel Law Firm and was encouraged to continue with their help and legal expertise. Attorney Wendt and his disability team took over and gathered necessary medical evidence as well completing all Disability forms. They informed of each step of the hearing and what was expected. Questions that would be asked by the judge. I would definitely recommend this legal team. Without their help, I’m not confident I would have won my case. I am forever grateful.

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.
