Attorney Nigel Malden is an attorney of honesty,credibility,loyalty and integrity! My husband and I needed an attorney to help us in a very difficult case that we needed legal representation on. We really needed an attorney who could adequately, thoroughly, and intently review our case to evaluate our response and our opponents allegations. Attorney Nigel Malden and his legal assistant worked together to form a legal defense on our case and was successful in presenting to the Court our rights as citizens to have our surveillance cameras to protect our home, which was previously ordered by a Judge to remove. He was successful by presenting to the court the lies, inconsistencies, and the police report of the false allegations of our opponents. Our opponent over the years has gotten away with harassment's against us even through the court system. Attorney Nigel Malden was successful by his representation to the court exposing our opponent harassment against us. Our opponent was not only granted a 1 year anti harassment but a 2 year anti harassment order. Our opponent was able for years to get away with their harassment's even when we had provided proof in court of their harassment's.. Attorney Nigel Malden was successful by presenting to the court that we as citizens have a right not be limited to be 10 feet away from our own property that was previously ordered by a Judge. Attorney Nigel Malden is an answer for anybody who are seeking an Attorney who would fight for them for justice,truth,and your rights. If you want an attorney who will fight for you with all he has within him,(similar to a Father defending his children) by his legal knowledge,profession and expertise..He is kind,gentle,warm and friendly,but a powerhouse in the courtroom.. When Attorney Nigel Malden is in the court room representing you it's like the movie "Showdown at the okay coral..You truly can count on Attorney Nigel Malden, he is the Attorney for you..

If you want a good loyal honest attorney Nigel Malden is the man for you. My husband and I had a case that we needed an attorney fast. I did not know where to turn so I went to the telephone book.. I called Attorney Nigel Malden's office. His Legal assistant is a very kind, warm and friendly lady. I explained what our case was about his legal assistant informed me to send the documents that I had regarding myself and husband's case, and she would discuss it with Attorney Malden. After submitting the documents requested it was within two days we got a response from Mr. Malden's office to inform us that he would represent us. We had a meeting at his office and the very first time that my husband and myself met Mr. Malden and his legal assistant. We felt like we had known them a long time because they both have a warm friendly way of making you feel very comfortable. After Mr. Malden finished reviewing our documents he told us the pros and cons of what could possibly be the outcome of our case. Mr. Malden detailed with us how he would present our case before the Court. Mr. Malden gave us advice how we should act and respond to questions that were asked of us by the Judge himself or the opposite party's attorney. He kept us focused on what was important and the things that were not, he advised us accordingly. Mr. Malden gave us ample time to discuss our case, he inquired of us if we understood what he was saying whether it was a legal answer or regarding what we might expect in court. Mr. Malden is a very friendly attorney with expertise and experience in the law.
On our Court day Mr. Malden put his all into presenting our case with vigor, power and strength. He put his all into representing us with a 1-2-3 sucker punch he came out swinging hard and heavy with the law,evidence and the hard truth. We are so proud of Mr. Malden's representation. I was so proud of him that I wanted to jump out of my seat with joy to give him a big hug right there in the courtroom but I didn't, I waited until court was over then gave him a big hug and a thank you,my husband was very pleased also. If we ever need any legal representation Mr. Malden is the attorney that we would call in a heart beat..He is very unique he is not your average attorney he's not only an attorney but the way he operates in the courtroom I see him as a General who knows how to take the lead. I have a nickname for Mr. Malden I call him Mr. General. My husband and I recommend anybody if you need legal help or representation please do not hesitate to contact attorney Nigel Malden. We guarantee, you will be glad that you did. Thank you for listening.

Talbot refused to take my case when Ben was under him. Ben saw my case and called me 3 days later and he took my case and won. I was a scared 21 year old and he made me feel okay with the whole process. He told me from day 1 that the insurance had 3 years before court and it would take them almost 3 years to agree to settle. He was honest and compassionate. I would hire him again if I ever needed his help.

I had a consultation with Ben and it was one of the best time of life. Even though he is highly respected and very rich he is still very down to earth. Ben is a very good listener and lawyer. Without hesitation I would recommend him to everyone because he can see things that other lawyers can't even think of. You need these type of people in your life and of course in your legal battle.

I was attempting to manage my own case, and realized I was out of my depth. When Lara took over, the weight of the world was lifted from my shoulders, and I was able to focus on healing from the accident. She has both great intelligence and great compassion. I recommend her whole-heartedly.

Lara Herrmann is top notch and has earned my highest recommendation. She handled my case with such ease, and I was able to get the medical care that I needed. She can be very hands on, or in my case, I preferred to do everything over the phone and electronically. They were amazing, so on top of it and not once did I have to follow up with them to check on where they were at in the process. She will relieve you from many, many headaches and provide the advice you are seeking. I have already referred them two cases, and I plan to continue to send close friends and family their way.

I am a homeowner who was sued by a neighbor who filed a "spite" lawsuit against me. Joe successfully defended me against "over-the-top" allegations, by skillfully & methodically debunking the claims. He persistently unraveled the plaintiff's legal maneuvering to attempt to construct a case out of fabrications. To do that, Joe used thoughtful strategy in his presentation of the actual facts of the case, and continually maintained a low-key, articulate professionalism that was very effective. It was obvious in the courtroom that he was respected by the judges who heard various portions of the case. Joe has a high standard of principled ethics that enable him to provide excellent representation. This lawsuit dragged on for over 3 years, & yet my stress level was minimal because I was extremely confident of Joe's abilities to bring about a favorable resolution in my defense. He did not let me down. Another great thing about Joe, is that being the man of integrity he is, I KNOW he would have never chosen to represent the type of individual who sued me--no matter how much they would have been willing to pay him for the representation. Joe Diaz gets an A-plus in my review.

I used Tim Gosselin on an insurance matter where the company violated the law but wouldn't pay. The insurance commissioner's office gave me the usual "we can't do anything and you have to see an attorney" garbage. I went to his office at 4:00 on a Friday and found him to be very laid back. He looked at all my paperwork and recommended a letter. By Saturday I had a copy of the letter in the mail. It was very good--forceful but not threatening. By the next Friday the insurance company paid the claim in full! Tim only charged about $200 for everything--other attorneys wanted that just to talk to me.
Call the other insurance attorneys in the phonebook, and Tim is the cheapest. And from my experience, the best.

Mr. Gerrit was very responsive to our needs, and often made phone contact personally rather than through a secretary or clerk. His initial knowledge was good, but also researched our issue thoroughly enough to become very familiar with the more minor nuances. We have used his services a few times over the years, and in each instance his work on our behalf rapidly resolved the issue and prevented the issue from becoming a long ordeal. We will continue to use his services should the need arise in the future.

Jay represented me during a 2nd DUI offense and we received a favorable outcome. I was caught driving on a suspended license afterwards and this was my 3rd DWLS 1st. I was facing 6 months in jail and losing my career. He was able to get my charged reduced to a DWLS 2nd and I received 90 days of Electronic Home Monitoring. I am still employed with my company I have been with for 5 years! Jay is very knowledgeable of DUI and DWLS defense. He always kept me in the loop and is very supportive during difficult times.

Patrick is great! He helped me with my personal injury auto claim. I never expected to get what I got and I basically did nothing! (Except being unfortunate enough to get in an accident in the first place.) Just a few meetings here and there. He communicated well, answered questions with straight answers. He's pleasant and helpful and I would and will recommend him to ANYONE. Thank you Patrick!

I was facing 60 months for an assault and within 6 months Morgan Benfield took me to trial and got me an acquitted via an “Not Guilty” verdict from the jury.
Looking back at this process, I would sincerely tell anyone whom is looking for a defense attorney to consider hiring Morgan Benfield.
His entire philosophical process was way beyond easy and in the end, despite the flagrant dishonesty and intentional difficulty inflicted upon us by the State, especially during the pretrial process, he smoothly navigated and directed us to a big win.
If you hire Mr Benfield please understand that the courts respect him as well. For example, whenever I showed up to arraignment, the State made it crystal clear that they were going to ask for $50,000 bail. Once they’d been informed that I was represented by Morgan Benfield, that request suddenly plummeted to $15,000, the judge ultimately deciding to release me for free under my own recognizance. “Mr Cho I see that you’ve hired your own attorney” he said, prior to releasing me.
I say again Mr Benfield is super easy to work with. So easy that at times I felt uncomfortable with the lack of effort that was required of me. You literally pay for his services and let the man work. Other lawyers, many times more expensive ones will not only ask you for their fee but then will give you a packet/check list of all the things that you need to do on your end before they get started. They’ll even attach your bill on the very top as they hand it all over to you. This is the extreme opposite of Mr Benfield.
His approach is unorthodox and he even has a catch-phrase that he uses once he has them where he wants them (I won’t disclose it and ruin the fun) but by the time Morgan Benfield was finished that jury took only an hour to decide and I truly feel the only reason that it took that long was for the jury to give the pretense to the judge that they were debating amongst themselves. We were done by lunch.
Trust me. This guy is good. Thank you to all my predecessors that left reviews prior to me because without them I may have never sought out his services. Thank you again Mr Benfield for beating my charge!

Elizabeth powell, is not only one of the best attorneys I've ever worked with, but one of the most understanding attorneys as well. She was not able to take my wife and I on as official clients, as she works for the Pierce County Housing Authority, but due to our special situation, and the fact that she had dealt with the company that was illegally trying to get money out of us, in the past, she decided to help us. He was not only very detailed and willing to do what she could, but she gave us some amazing advice, that helped us out of a very bad financial situation. I would recommend Elizabeth Powell to anyone seeking legal assistance, in Pierce county, Washington state.

Stuart Morgan is the best litigation attorney in town! We were so lucky that Stu was so highly recommended by many people within our community. Stu helped my husband and I through a very difficult time in our lives, he was so supportive, honest and fought hard for our family’s rights! We are thankful for Grady Heins, who stepped in at a hearing when Stu was unavailable and Grady was outstanding! Stu and Grady’s legal assistant, Amy Shackelford was also amazing!

After a month of leaving contract requests on their web page, and voice messages, someone contacted me and said they would pass on my request. Then after another week, an assistant told me that they were too busy to help me. This is arrogant, unprofessional, and just plain rude.
I wouldn't have persisted except that our attorney recommended them for another matter. Firms like this explains why lawyers get such a bad rap.

What an Insurance Lawyer Can Do for You
An insurance lawyer specializes in legal issues related to insurance policies and claims. These lawyers help individuals, businesses, and insurance companies navigate disputes involving insurance coverage, claim denials, bad faith claims, and policy interpretation. Insurance lawyers can represent policyholders who feel they've been unfairly denied coverage, or they can work on behalf of insurance companies to defend against fraudulent or inflated claims.
Whether you're filing a claim, disputing a denial, or dealing with complex coverage issues, an insurance lawyer can provide critical guidance and legal representation to protect your rights and ensure you receive the benefits you're entitled to under your policy.
When Should I Hire an Insurance Lawyer?
Hiring an insurance lawyer is advisable in several situations, particularly when disputes arise over insurance coverage, claim denials, or bad faith actions. Common reasons to hire an insurance lawyer include:
- Denied insurance claims: If your insurance company denies your claim, a lawyer can help determine whether the denial was justified or if you should challenge the decision.
- Bad faith insurance practices: If you believe your insurer has acted in bad faith, such as delaying payment or failing to properly investigate your claim, a lawyer can help you pursue legal action.
- Underpaid claims: If the insurance company has offered less compensation than you believe your claim is worth, a lawyer can negotiate for a higher payout or file a lawsuit.
- Coverage disputes: When there's ambiguity or disagreement about what your policy covers, a lawyer can provide clarity and advocate for your rights under the policy.
- Business insurance claims: If you own a business and are dealing with commercial insurance claims (e.g., property damage, liability, or professional indemnity), a lawyer can help ensure your business receives proper coverage.
- Third-party claims: If you're being sued for liability and your insurance company refuses to defend or indemnify you, an insurance lawyer can help enforce your coverage rights.
- Appealing long-term disability claims: If your disability insurance claim has been denied, a lawyer can assist in gathering evidence and appealing the decision to get the benefits you deserve.
What Does an Insurance Lawyer Do?
An insurance lawyer provides a wide range of services to assist with insurance-related legal issues. These can include:
- Reviewing insurance policies: A lawyer can review your insurance policy to ensure you understand your rights and obligations, as well as clarify what coverage is provided.
- Filing insurance claims: Assisting with the preparation and filing of claims to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
- Challenging claim denials: If your claim has been denied, a lawyer can investigate the reasons for denial and file appeals or lawsuits to challenge the decision.
- Litigating bad faith claims: Representing clients in bad faith insurance cases, where the insurer fails to act in good faith by unfairly delaying, denying, or underpaying a valid claim.
- Negotiating settlements: Helping policyholders negotiate settlements with insurance companies to receive fair compensation for claims.
- Defending against fraudulent claims: Representing insurance companies to defend against false or exaggerated claims filed by policyholders or third parties.
- Handling disputes over policy language: Interpreting complex insurance policies and resolving disputes between the insured and the insurer regarding coverage limits, exclusions, and conditions.
How Are Insurance Lawyers Paid?
Insurance lawyers typically charge for their services in different ways, depending on the nature of the case and the type of insurance issue involved. Common payment structures include:
- Contingency fee: For many policyholders disputing claim denials or underpayments, lawyers work on a contingency basis. This means the lawyer only gets paid if they win or settle the case, taking a percentage (usually between 25% and 40%) of the recovered amount.
- Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing legal issues, such as bad faith lawsuits or business insurance disputes, insurance lawyers may charge an hourly rate. This rate varies depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Flat fee: For simpler matters, such as reviewing an insurance policy or helping file a claim, some lawyers charge a flat fee for their services.
- Retainer: For businesses or clients with ongoing legal needs, an insurance lawyer may require a retainer fee, which is an upfront payment for future services.
It’s important to clarify the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to avoid unexpected costs.
How Much Does an Insurance Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring an insurance lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer's experience, and the payment structure. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fees: If your lawyer works on a contingency fee basis, you won’t pay any fees upfront, but the lawyer will take a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or judgment awarded.
- Hourly rates: Hourly rates for insurance lawyers generally range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location. Complex cases involving bad faith or high-value business claims may require significant hours, leading to higher legal costs.
- Flat fees: For specific services, such as reviewing an insurance policy, lawyers may charge a flat fee ranging from $500 to $2,500, depending on the complexity of the task.
- Retainers: Businesses or individuals seeking ongoing insurance legal services may pay a retainer, which can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, depending on the lawyer and scope of work.
Make sure to discuss costs and payment structures with your lawyer before proceeding to understand how much the services will cost.
Top Questions to Ask an Insurance Lawyer
Before hiring an insurance lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:
-
What experience do you have with insurance law?
Ensure the lawyer has specific experience handling cases involving your type of insurance, whether it’s auto, health, home, or business-related. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer works on contingency, hourly rates, or flat fees, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case. -
What is your success rate with insurance disputes?
Ask about the lawyer’s track record in winning or settling cases similar to yours. -
What are my chances of success?
A good lawyer will provide an honest assessment of your case’s strengths and weaknesses and outline the possible outcomes. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of how long it will take to resolve your claim or dispute, as some cases can extend over months or even years. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case.
How to Check the Credibility of an Insurance Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a reputable insurance lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:
- Verify their state bar license: Check with your state bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Review their experience in insurance law: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in insurance law and have experience with cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Search for reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s expertise and professionalism.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have dealt with similar insurance issues.
- Check for industry memberships: Membership in organizations like the American Bar Association’s Tort Trial and Insurance Practice Section (TIPS) can indicate the lawyer’s focus on insurance law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with an insurance lawyer, come prepared with the following documents and information:
- A copy of your insurance policy: Bring the policy related to your claim or dispute so the lawyer can review the coverage details.
- Any correspondence with the insurance company: Provide copies of letters, emails, or other communications between you and your insurer regarding the claim or denial.
- Proof of claim and supporting documents: Bring any documentation you have submitted with your claim, including receipts, invoices, photos, medical records, or repair estimates.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions you want to ask about your case, the legal process, and the potential outcomes.
- Timeline of events: Be ready to provide a clear timeline of the incident that led to the claim and any steps you’ve taken with your insurance company.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can ensure that the lawyer has all the information they need to assess your case and provide the best legal advice.
