Attorney Reviews can be complicated. People will probably search for the specifics to why they represented You rather than the need they have for an Attorney themselves.
Like this review, this brilliant attorney didn't represent Me personally, He represented My partner on a very serious offense. I was pulled in by deceptive persons and some were lawmakers/ law enforcement.
Attorney Smith is a brilliant, and aggressive fighter with class and poise. He foresees the oppositions position and takes charge with confidence, pleasant and charmed demeanor, with pitbull tenacity and energy to defend His client. Not only did He fight and Win for My partner, He made some clearances happen on My behalf where I was pulled in and shouldn't have been.
I Highly recommend this Attorney for Criminal Justice and when I say Justice in this Unjust System, this was the outcome that came with Attorney W.Scott Smith.
Great Smile and demeanor, don't let the smooth taste fool you! He's the force to have on Your side!.

The moment the jury walked back into the room to announce the verdict was one I’ll never forget. My heart was racing, my hands were shaking and sweaty, and the silence in the courtroom was deafening. Every breath felt heavier than the last, and it felt as though the world had stopped spinning. Then came the words: “Not guilty.” The weight of the world lifted in an instant. Tears streamed down my face as my family and I embraced, overcome with relief and gratitude. And there was Scott Smith, calm and composed, sitting at the defense table like he’d known this would be the outcome all along.
If you're looking for a defense attorney who doesn’t just defend you but saves you, look no further than Scott Smith with Peach State Lawyers. For years, I carried the burden of serious charges that threatened my freedom and my future. The district attorney’s office likely thought they had an open-and-shut case, but Scott had other plans. With relentless dedication, he brought the truth to light and laid waste to their arguments. The charges? Dismissed. Every single one. The district attorney’s case? Left in shambles.
Scott’s courtroom performance wasn’t just legal work—it was a spectacle. His cross-examinations were as sharp as a scalpel, cutting through the opposition’s narrative with surgical precision. His closing arguments? A tour de force that left no room for doubt. By the end, the jury wasn’t just convinced—they were moved. So much so that after the trial, they went out of their way to meet my family outside the courthouse to apologize for everything we had endured. That’s the kind of impact Scott has.
If you need someone who will fight for your life, your freedom, and your family like it’s his own, Scott Smith is the attorney you need. Peach State Lawyers didn’t just win my case—they gave me my life back. Scott, you’re not just an attorney—you’re a legend.

She over talked me, was combative, and certainly did not listen at all as I was simply trying to make sure I understood what she was saying. Wish I could give her zero star.

I got a staph infection from a manicure and felt very affected from the experience. I went online and found Adrienne by chance. I talked to her on the phone to see if I had a case against the salon. This was the first time I had ever sought legal representation for personal injury. I felt a little petty and embarrassed because of the stigma these kinds of lawsuits have but I knew that the salon had done something wrong and caused me tremendous pain. If I hadn't barged into a doctor's office two days after the manicure when my finger was red and swollen to twice its size, I don't know what would have happened next. Adrienne never made me feel like she had better cases to handle, even though I thought she probably did. She told me exactly what she needed from me and told me exactly what she was going to do, step by step. After a couple of months of trying to figure out if the salon had insurance and who the new owners were, Adrienne called me with good news. I was surprised to hear that the salon's insurance company offered to pay my medical bills and a fair amount for pain and suffering. Shortly after, I got the check. Adrienne and I clicked from the first time we met and I was very pleased with her handling of this case. I would highly recommend her .

Ms. Hobbs is great at what she does and does what she does because she believes in it. She is professional, personable, and takes the time to discuss options, receive input, and explain what is happening with the case. She takes the time to return all calls personally. I never felt ignored or that she was too busy to keep me informed. I would not hesitate to refer her to a friend or have her represent me again.

Don’t bother calling this law firm. They just take your money and then block you from calling them. I have paid this firm and Maya Faoud $10,000 and they have me blocked on all their phones and won’t return my money. Worst criminal representation I have seen in this town in years

CLASS ACTION. I have been reading the reviews on this attorney and I am blown away.I had a really bad experience with Adamma McKinnon a few years ago. She was dishonest and basically did the same thing to me regarding having me make a payment and subsequently, treating me as if i was annoying her. She also began demanding more money for the case. When I asked for my money back, she said something similar to it having been used on research or discovery. To be very honest with you, reading her responses to the disgruntled clients, speaks volumes to her lack of professionalism. I think the individuals who have had issues with her should all get together and report her to the state bar of Georgia and file a lawsuit collectively against her. If anyone is interested, please post here and I will share my Contact information with you. What I find most interesting Is there are a number of positive reviews that hit her account within hours of each other, after she attacked the last person MAXPRO that made a complaint. This is to falsely boost her rating. This is despicable. This is similar to false advertisement. Getting friends to boost your rating is deceitful. I will screenshot all of these ratings that popped up yesterday for the investigation. Highly suspicious behavior

I was unimpressed with Dr.Kaplan’s medical knowledge. He seemed to get confused about the issues in my case and claimed to have reviewed well over 4 thousand pages of medical records in just 2 days. Obviously this is impossible. Especially for someone who could hardly hold a coherent conversation about my case over the phone.

Would not recommend and was so ill and traumatized by the medical errors in my case, found it difficult to feel supported by him
with the lack of empathy and dismissiveness of him one week then the next time lack of focus as to what occurred and who he should file claims against. . He more or less downplayed and made me feel I should accept what was done, like I was doing something wrong in the medical errors that would made in my case. However, I did have recourse, that he just did not seem to want to pursue. I feel like perhaps there were uncomfortable situations with the Hospital and/or physician/s involved. After all he was a surgeon/ physician prior to becoming an attorney....
At this point I have this media to help others be aware, to hopefully help them, of my recommendation not to hire him.

What a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Do for You
A medical malpractice lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence or misconduct of healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, or hospitals. These lawyers assist in cases where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury or death. Medical malpractice cases can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.
If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to improper medical treatment, a medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand your legal options, file a lawsuit, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.
When Should I Hire a Medical Malpractice Lawyer?
Hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is essential if you’ve been seriously injured due to the negligence of a healthcare provider or institution. Situations where you should seek legal representation include:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: If a doctor fails to diagnose or delays diagnosing a medical condition, leading to harm or progression of the illness.
- Surgical errors: Harm resulting from surgical mistakes such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments inside the body, or performing unnecessary procedures.
- Medication errors: Injuries caused by prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, or mistakes made by pharmacists in dispensing drugs.
- Birth injuries: Injuries to a newborn due to medical negligence during labor and delivery, such as failing to perform a timely C-section or improper use of delivery instruments.
- Anesthesia errors: Complications arising from improperly administered anesthesia, which can lead to serious injury or death.
- Inadequate follow-up or aftercare: Suffering due to lack of proper monitoring or care after a medical procedure, leading to complications.
- Hospital or nursing home negligence: Harm caused by the negligence of hospital staff, nurses, or administrators who failed to provide adequate care.
Medical malpractice cases are complex, and hiring a lawyer early can help ensure your rights are protected and your case is handled effectively.
What Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Do?
A medical malpractice lawyer provides various legal services to help injured patients hold negligent healthcare providers accountable. Their responsibilities include:
- Evaluating your case: Reviewing medical records and consulting with experts to determine if you have a viable claim based on the standard of care and harm suffered.
- Filing a lawsuit: Initiating legal action by filing a complaint against the responsible parties in the appropriate court.
- Gathering evidence: Collecting medical records, expert testimonies, and other relevant evidence to build a strong case.
- Negotiating with insurance companies: Working to secure a fair settlement that compensates you for your injuries without the need for a trial.
- Litigating in court: Representing you during trial proceedings if a settlement cannot be reached, presenting evidence and arguing your case.
- Calculating damages: Assessing the full extent of your losses, including medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
- Handling expert testimony: Coordinating with medical experts who can testify on how the standard of care was breached and how it led to your injuries.
How Are Medical Malpractice Lawyers Paid?
Most medical malpractice lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if they recover compensation for you. Key aspects of this payment structure include:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer's fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the settlement or award.
- No upfront costs: You do not pay any legal fees unless the lawyer successfully recovers compensation on your behalf.
- Case expenses: Costs for expert witnesses, medical record retrieval, and court fees may be deducted from your settlement or award in addition to the lawyer's fee.
Always discuss the fee arrangement during your initial consultation to understand your financial obligations.
How Much Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee model. General estimates include:
- Contingency fee: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total recovery amount.
- Case expenses: Additional costs such as expert witness fees and court expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.
Ensure you receive a clear explanation of all potential fees and expenses before proceeding with your case.
Top Questions to Ask a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Before hiring a medical malpractice lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?
Confirm the lawyer has a successful track record with similar cases. -
How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
Have you worked with expert witnesses?
Verify the lawyer's experience in collaborating with medical experts essential for your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association for their license and any disciplinary actions.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in medical malpractice and a history of successful 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:
- Medical records: All documents related to your treatment and injury.
- Evidence of harm: Photos, medical bills, and records of lost wages.
- Communication records: Any correspondence with healthcare providers or institutions.
- List of healthcare providers: Names and contact information of all involved medical personnel.
- Questions for the lawyer: A prepared list to address all your concerns.
- Timeline of events: A detailed chronology of your medical care and the issues encountered.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
