Jonathan helped me and my family out at a time when we needed it the most. Let's be honest, rarely do folks engage attorneys and it's not something most of us have much experience in. That's where Jonathan comes in! He took the time to listen intently, truly understand our needs and concerns and then guide us to best possible resolution. We cannot thank him enough and I would recommend him to anyone in need.

First, I want to start off by saying that when a person speaks on attorneys not giving their all, not being honest, they are all out for the money, and that they really do not care about their clients.......that is absolutely the most ficticious statement I have ever heard in my life to the ultimate power when it comes to Attorney Jonathan Williams! This man fought for me and believed within me the whole entire time that he went over and beyond when dealing with my case. He was a God send to my life during my hard times. Mr. JJonathan Williams took on my case when everyone else turned their backs on me and told me they didnt want to chance because it was hard to prove, but this man here....he will fight for exactly what he knows is right and he will stand by you throughout until the very end! Please believe that he will not only be your attorney; yes, because that is his career; but he will also be that ear when you need it. I love his drive, his will, his push, his sincerity, his ability to get it done and done correctly, and his straight forward honestly. He will not sugar coat it by no means. He is hands down the best and i will come back to him if I ever need a helping hand because he always believed in me! And dont let me leave out his right hand lady Ms. Leslie honey. She stands by him and makes sure those checks marks are on every document. THANK YOU JOHNATHAN for believing in my case when no one would. I will forever be thankful for your push and drive! ML

I was in a head on accident with a narcotic police May 12, 2018, which was the officer's fault. But I didn't really know which lawyer I could trust for my case. So one my relatives suggested that I should let Mr. Sauer get the job done. And that's exactly what he did and got me a lot more compensation than ever expected. Mr. Sauer went over every piece of detail of my case with me being honest and with integrity. He's a lot different from other RIP Off lawyers who tend to hustle their own clients. I strongly recommend Mr. Stephen A. Sauer to anyone who has a case with a vehicle accident. He's the man for the job !!

I used Flexer Law for my divorce. All I can say is Lewis Williams and Jaclin Batt are amazing! Anytime I had a question they were there to answer it and I always felt like someone else was fighting for me. As a man going through the hardest time in my life it was good to feel like someone else was in my corner and there for me. If you need a great divorce team to handle your case, you should reach out to them. They will forever have my business. Thank you to them both for the help!

Though the time was very stressful because of his injuries sustained in the accident and medical procedures needed afterwards, the two of them took care of the case and helped us through the process. We will not hesitate to contact them or recommend them and The Garza Law Firm, if the need arises.

Griffith Law Firm went above and beyond the call of duty for me. They were courteous, sweet, loving, dependable, hard working, and always welcoming when I called & came by. They truly know the law which makes them a force to be reckoned witha, and definitely the lawyers you want on your team when it comes to fighting for you. It's not about the money at all with them; they are about making sure that you are taken care of and that the insurance company does exactly what they need to do. Everyone at Griffith treated me like I was part of the family rather than just a client. My accident was over a year ago. I did not have a car, but that didn't stop Mr. Griffith. He came to my house, sit down and talked to me. He and Sydney have checked on me to see if I needed anything and to see how I was doing during this whole process. Sydney is such a sweet person. She has kept in contact with me the whole time, making phone calls, just handling all the business. I don't believe I would have been as calm or able to cope as well if I hadn't had such loving people in my corner fighting for me especially Sidney. She is a real jewel. I would recommend Griffith Law Firm to anyone. They work as a team for you!! I can truly say that I am going to miss them. I hope that nothing like this happens again, but if it did, Griffith Law would be the 1st. I called.

A friend recommended John to me and I would recommend him to anyone. The staff was also extremely pleasant, courteous and helpful.

John is an amazing trial lawyer and beyond that, he is just one heck of a nice guy. He is a lawyer you are more likely going to mistake for a best friend. I mean this guy is so approachable and generous with his time. He makes you feel important, because to him you are important. The insurance companies really dislike John and that will make you like him even more. He is a graduate of the Trial Lawyers College. That is kind of a big deal, like a really big deal. In short, that means he is one of the best lawyers you will ever meet and has honed the practice of trial law to a fine science. A must hire.

Brett is on top of his game and extremely professional, and his knowledge and experience were incredibly evident. He is extremely thorough, and sensitive to his clients unique circumstances. He made sure that we had all the support we needed, worked directly with all our health care providers, and handled every minute legal detail fully. Of course he made sure we were properly treated by the liable party and we were satisfied with our settlement. But Brett's personal concern, communication, and integrity is what helped us a most through a difficult time, as the case took over a year due to the medical care needed. We hope never to need an attorney for an auto accident injury again. But if we ever do, Brett is our first and only call. Brett will not disappoint or mislead you, and you will be very well represented and protected under his legal care.

Brad Burnette helped me with my personal injury case. Brad and his team did a wonderful job, they were extremely nice and welcoming! I’ve never needed an attorney for anything so I did not know what to expect. My thoughts on attorneys came from Breaking Bad and Don’t Call Saul. You know, the skeezy, slick talking, untrustworthy kind. They are nothing like that. Brad was very transparent, he kept me updated, Andrea, his paralegal, was great also. She responded to my emails very quickly and helped get me reimbursed for my rental! They handled EVERYTHING! I didn’t have to do anything really, just heal from my injuries! The whole case took less than a year! From December 2021 to September 2022. That is from wreck to check. Im thoroughly grateful to Brad and Andrea! Also Andrea is going to be a fabulous attorney!

Brad was realistic with the outcome of my case from day one. He was honest and very informative, unlike some of the other attorneys I had consultations with. He (or his staff) kept me informed and updated as my case progressed. If I did need to contact him, he responded in a timely manner. I appreciate the justice he got for my son, and am pleased I chose him to represent our family. I hope I don't ever need an attorney again.... but if I do, Brad will be my first call!

I liked how I didn't have to contact his office to inquire about progress or updates on the case. He kept me informed the entire time through phone calls or e-mails every couple of weeks to a month. Brad got the job done, landed me a huge settlement and I cannot thank him enough. You're the best, Brad!

I was hit by another driver and injured. My car was undriveable, I couldn't work and my medical bills were pilling up. The other driver's insurance company would not take responsibility and wouldn't pay my damages. I was scared and anxious about what to do. I was referred to Matt and that's when things changed for the better. He took the time to meet with me and explained everything that would happen. He laid out a clear plan on how he would recover my damaged and made sure I understood it. He was kind and patient. Shortly after I retained him he forced the insurance company to provide me with a rental car and then to pay to fix my car. He got my doctors to agree to wait until my case was resolved to get paid. That took a lot of the pressure off of me. He then recovered the rest of my damages just as he had laid out and explained to me. He was fantastic. This is a great lawyer.

Shortly thereafter we received a letter from Mr. Willaims that the case was over. After many months of aggrevation, we could now go about our normal lives. We told Mr. Williams what was going on, and he kept us informed through the whole process, and he copied us on everything that was sent to the county court.

We found ourselves in a somewhat embarassing position last year when our 19 year daughter was arrested for shoplifting. We were referred to Mr. Kim through a friend and contacted him for his help. Since she had never been arrested before he was able to work with the prosecutor and allow her to attend anti-theft classes which enabled her to have this minor charge expunged from her record. Without this expungement, she would not have been able to get the job she had been wanting for some time. Mr. Kim helped to ease our fears through this whole process and without his help, she might have been held back in life. Even though this was a minor charge, it was a big deal to our family and we can't thank Mr. Kim enough.

Years prior, when I went into business with a friend, Mr. Kim took care of all the things required to keep us legal and on course. When I left the business, he provided counsel on me making a clean break from my short lived business venture. I think of Ron as being a straight forward and honest man.

Thank God for Wesley Southerland! He and his team went above and beyond for me after I had a car accident which resulted in a head injury (vision damage & memory issues) and neck/back injuries. The other driver was 100% at fault, but his insurance company refused to pay enough to even cover my medical costs. Wesley negotiated hard and long without giving up. He got me the maximum amount the other driver's policy covered! The settlement was five times more than the original offer AND Wesley accomplished this without us ever having to go to court! This was far more than I'd expected and such a relief. I've worked with attorneys in other capacities on several occasions, and this team was by far the best of them all. They were prompt with communications and very understanding when I had other life issues that interfered with the progress of the case. Everyone in his office was a pleasure to work with. I'd highly recommend Wes and his team to anyone who needs representation.

Wes represented me after I was hit by a teenager who was texting while driving. It was a long process because my recovery and treatment wasn’t quick nor resolved after a short time. Wes was patient and committed from beginning to represent me for as long as I needed to get the treatment and diagnosis for the future going forward. He’s resolved, professional and fought on my behalf. So grateful for his legal services, Professionalism and understanding/knowledge of litigation for a car accident.

Wes did a great job of fighting for my wife that was in a wreck. He fought to get her everything she deserved and was always in contact with both of us. He also always checked in to she how she was doing and how her surgery went. He was there every step of the way, and made us very comfortable through the process.

Remember when personal attention, hard work and commitment was the cornerstone of professionals. I have found that and much much more with Attorney Laura Myers. I had a car accident which became a two year legal and medical battle. Not once did she waver.  Not once did my calls or emails go unattended. I had stellar professional representation with this super attorney. I was treated with care kindness and professionalism through a very difficult process. Attorney Laura Meyers fought an unreasonable Car insurance company who thought I would just give up and go away if they ignored us. Not so with this smart tough never say die attorney. If you are seeking representation. I highly recommend you seek out Attorney Laura Myers. She will be your legal champion.

Well as a protection, in the event, a wreck occurs it is the law to have car insurance. And as I've seen that work or not in my case, still a wreck leaves you hurt in more than one way- opening you up as a target for more devices. Why does this attorney merit 5 stars? As a 63 year old client that experienced an accident that altered my life course and left me totally disabled- I needed the RIGHT LAWYER that would go the extra mile. Attorney Myers is the closest lawyer to perfection in terms of compassion and integrity. She expressed the highest quality of humanism in her dealings with me this year as her client. Thus I believe if you appoint Attorney Myers as your representative to advocate in your behalf, you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. And you will get through your wreck aftermath, but Laura will make sure you have survived it because with Laura Myers YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

I have been involved in small town politics my entire life. When choosing an attorney, I discussed my options of local representation and knew I would need outside counsel. I'm realistic because I know how the political, judicial machine functions. Im convinced had I not chosen outside counsel, I wouldve settled for a punishment, that I didnt deserve. Several political proponents for freedom of speech recommended Daniel. I've never been accused of a crime in my life and he was who I needed. Thankfully I was cleared of the crime I didn't commit, and Daniel was the driving force, in that process, defending my freedom of speech. I'm extremely grateful for his preliminary trial argument, that won my case.

A sum of 2 years ago I was charged with 6 aggravated assault charges, and later the DA felt I got the lesser charges so they decide to charge me with first degree attempted murder. I was arrested October 28, Mr. Reaves came on the 30th just two days after, I was impressed. When we first talked and he gave me a consultation he made sure he let me know that he will fight for me to the fullest extent. I didnt expect to much but I wasn't in full belief because I was in a city that wronged me, but over the course of 21 days in jail attorney Reaves built my confidence by displaying his incentive, knowledge, and determination. I was his first criminal case, so in all other metaphors he took those gloves off and prepared to win. He knew what possible outcomes could take place but his diligence allowed him not to be defeated. Even though I had no criminal history and I was eligible for first offense diversion he didnt take no plea, even when I was reindicted for the higher charge he never gave up on me. During the course of 2 years we had several trials and although he was a civil attorney he went against two of the most respected defense attorneys Memphis had to offer. But Mr. Reaves was prepared for them and surprised them as well. In the end result I can still be an engineer with my clear name because he was triumphant. I owe him so much more then money and gratitude he saved my life and I'm eternally grateful. If you ask me what Lawyer is the best for any situation civil and or criminal I will say attorney Reaves. He knows the value of your life and your possessions and he will fight for them with all he has.

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.
