We hired Mr Whitney from AndersonGlenn LLC to represent us and our Special Needs daughter who was forcibly masked by tying it on with a nylon cord. His passion for the vulnerable was very moving for us as parents. He believed in us, our cause of action and fought hard for our family to receive justice. Due to his and his team’s efforts we were able to secure a settlement after a long battle in Federal Court. Thank you Nick! If we ever need faithful representation again, we know the only attorney who we will call.

As I work with Nick over the last year I found him to be conscientious and was able to relay necessary actions to me in a precise and communicative way. He is professional and precise yet a comforting advisor during a difficult time. He has a wide berth of knowledge of the law and in my case he was able to work with the consortium of the lawyers to help us arrive at the very best conclusion.

I have used Nick on a number of legal matters ranging from employment law to personal litigation also financial consulting. He is very resourceful, intelligent and efficient. Despite his Harvard law degree, he is down to earth (has a common sense approach), I guess it must be his mid-western upbringing.

I am an attorney who has been in practice in Florida for 52 years including being a senior partner in a 70 attorney law firm as well as becoming a private mediator after my retirement from the firm. I always wondered who I would retain if I ever needed an attorney. Almost two years ago, my wife was seriously injured in an automobile accident. My choice was easy, I retained Jeff Garvin. I had known Jeff personally for many decades and had complete confidence in his abilities and trust in his professionalism. Jeff skillfully negotiated a very favorable settlement for my wife. I know that his reputation as a skilled trial lawyer made a big difference in securing top dollar for our case. I've always thought that the most difficult client a lawyer can have is another lawyer. Jeff has demonstrated great patience in dealing with me throughout and gave me good advice all the way. If you need a lawyer in a serious personal injury case or any complicated type of civil litigation, Jeff Garvin is your man. I give him my highest recommendation.

Being an attorney myself, but not specializing in personal injury, I needed a personal injury lawyer when I got into a serious car accident and was injured. I went immediately to Brad Hartman because I knew him personally and I knew of his Sterling reputation. I discussed the situation with Brad and retained him to represent me . He did so, and worked extremely hard fo get additional compensation for me from my uninsured motorist coverage. I was pleased not only with the result that Brad obtained, but also very impressed with the thorough work up he did on the case.

Dean is great! I hired him to assist me with a personal injury case in which I was injured through no fault of my own. His expertise provided an honest assessment of my damages and how to present them best in the legal system against a well-armed insurance company. His expertise, perseverance, and knowledge resulted in my case being resolved in my favor. His kindness and understanding helped me through this difficult time and helped me see the light at the end of the tunnel. I can't thank him and his staff enough.

Highly Recommended. Mr. Dean Leboeuf and his team came to our aid in our time of need. My teenage daughter was involved in a car accident and suffered head trauma in August of 2020. We trusted Mr. Leboeuf and his team with all legal matters so we could have the peace of mind we needed to focus on recovery and healing. They did not disappoint. They are definitely on your side. I would not have been able to navigate this without their help. Thank you to Dean and his team. Jeanne

My husband and I were in a head on collision which put us both in the hospital together for almost one month. Dan and his staff were there for us every step of the way not just recovering insurance monies but guiding us through our pile of medical bills. He was always honest and informative about the legal battles we could be facing. He gave us a shoulder to cry on when we needed one.
Dan and his staff are our heroes.

We had hired Jason to represent us after being rear ended December 2019, my husband ended up with a severe whiplash and several bulging and herniated disk throughout his spine, he needed surgery to repair the major injuries in his neck. I was already disabled, my previous injuries were aggravated because of the accident. We were not aware of any specialist in our area and asked Jason if he knew of a good doctor, we were very satisfied with the recommendation that Jason gave us, this doctor did surgery on my husband's neck that did relieve the pain. Jason and his paralegal were amazing, they always kept us informed and kept in contact with us to see how we were doing, any questions or concerns we had were always answered promptly. Wagner McLaughlin is a very professional, knowledgeable law firm and Jason Whittemore and his paralegal are the best in what they do, if the occasion ever occurred where we needed another attorney, Jason Whittemore would be the only one we would consider. Besides Jason and his paralegal being a great team in the legal world, they also became a great friend to both of us.

After receiving some horrific dental work, I turned to Jason Whittemore for assistance. He listened to my case, made suggestions and then took action! He was profession, attentive and knowledgeable. In addition, because he was able to settle the case without going to court, he didn’t charge me a penny! You can’t ask for better representation.
Thank you Jason and team for all you have done for me.

Jason Whittemore represented me for a wrongful bankruptcy dispute that required IRS tax knowledge and a substantial amount of money I owed to the IRS among several other complications. After consulting with 1/2 dozen attorneys or so, I realized this was a very specialized case that most attorneys were not willing to take or just not knowledgeable enough. I then met with Mr. Whittemore. He took my case.
Mr. Whittemore is a sharp, very responsive, attentive, professional. He always politely spoke the facts. He kept me informed at all times. The end result was that we won. He is the sole reason for winning this unusual case. I highly recommend Mr. Whittemore and if I need an attorney in the future he is first on my list.

I'm 55 years old and have been in the professional business world most of my adult life. Any attorney with Ashby Davis' track record who will answer his cell phine 90% of the time is truly a "rare find" these days. In a world of talk, Ashby walks-the-walk and is by far the most professional attorney I've ever met. My case was settled in just over a year at a settlement that was more than i expected.
I would encourage anyone looking for a truly professional attorney to hire Ashby Carlton Davis and Woods Trial Law.
Thank You

I cannot praise Ashby's assistance to the heights to which he deserves! My vocabulary doesn't have enough superlative words to adequately portray how wonderful he was in handling my legal "woes". He was wonderful in every aspect of this awful "experience with a terrible moving company" concerning the moving company's destruction/"loss"(think THEFT) of my property which had supposedly been in air-conditioned storage for over two (2) years --( I was moving from my home on Marco Island, Fl to Gulf, County,Fl and required storage as I was building a new home). The moving company was AWFUL, but with Ashby's skillful work and handling of my case, I was able to receive a much higher settlement from the moving company than I ever would have without his representation. I have had occasion to deal with lawyers throughout my life--in fact, my daddy had an LLB from Cumberland Law School ( class of 1934) and received a J.D. (as you know- a Doctor of Jurisprudence) at a later time--although daddy only did Pro Bono work since he was primarily a businessman and farmer in Florida and Alabama. Anyway, Because I have been around "legal stuff" my whole life, I really appreciate when I encounter someone like Ashby who is knowledgeable , skillful, hardworking, and compassionate in dealing with my very stressful situation. He was always extremely attentive to me and my situation and even though I may have been overly upset at times, he always made me feel like I could contact him at any time for any reason. I only wish he were closer to where I live now--but I still would not hesitate to request his help in the future--distance is no hindrance in the way in which he handles legal matters. His law firm should put him on the "fast track" to being a Partner--people/lawyers like Ashby are diamonds in a too often pile of legal coal chunks, as I'm sure you know. His honor/honesty is impeccable--I'm sure Martingale-Hubbel will have an AV rating by his name--he IS an "A" lawyer--and he has the "Virtute" (virtue) to boot!! He deserves a huge raise in salary--and if your law firm is smart, you will hang on to him with "everything you've got"!!! Footnote: Because of Ashby Davis' wonderful handling of my case/situation, I gave him my deceased husband's iconic and official US Navy leather pilot's jacket from the Vietnam war era. I hope you can infer how highly I think of Ashby because I gave him the jacket my husband wore as a Navy pilot.

My family was left devastated by a missed diagnosis that led to my father’s subsequent passing. We were referred to Freidin Brown by a family friend and were treated with respect, care and kindness. Our primary attorney, Lara Dabdoub was so patient and gentle with my mother as she walked her through every step of the process. Lara is incredibly knowledgeable about her field, responsive, kind and compassionate. I truly believe my mother would not have made it through the process with any other attorney. Lara always had our best interest at heart and worked incredibly hard for us. Thank you, Phil Freidin and Lara, for helping my family through such a difficult time.

Mark Weinstein was referred to me by a lawyer at Turnberry Associates, with whom he had worked. She was very impressed with him, with good reason, given the stories I'd heard about other lawyers in his field.
Mark succeeded in allaying all my fears regarding the litigation process - I was hesitant and fearful of taking any sort of action. Mine was a very complicated case, and Mark kept me apprised of developments and advised me accordingly. I was most impressed with Mark's honesty and grew to trust him completely to get the best outcome for me. As I got to know him better, I found him to be a caring, honorable and trustworthy person, and one does not encounter this often anywhere, let alone in his field. He diligently pursued all avenues to effect a positive outcome in a case where the opposing lawyers pulled every dirty trick in the book.
I would highly recommend Mark Weinstein to anyone seeking the representation of a diligent and honest lawyer specializing in personal injury

It was our great fortune that Mark Weinstein came into our life. Looking back on our situation, and having had the time to consider circumstances and events that presented a dire need for his unequivical competence at what he does it had to have been fate as well. When you need someone who is thoughtful, considerate of your situation and ready to give you all there is to really resolve what you need stop right here. He did all he could and more, he never gave us cause to question his judgement. In the end the legal justice we did achieve the legal justice we so badly wanted. We are quite certain there are less than a handful of attorneys in the U.S.A that could have achieved for us what Mr. Weinstein did . We are eternally grateful for the inner peace he has given us and he did it with as much compassion as competence.

Mr. Weinstein led us through the legal consequences of the unnecessary loss of our 23- year -old daughter from medical malpractice. 5 different doctors , many nurses and the hospital were responsible for letting her die. After 3 years of unbelieveable preparation and presentations by Mr. Weinstein, we were victorious on all counts.
We had the choice of being invoved in the process as our emotions would allow. He was respectful of our feelings and we could not have endured the process with out the human touch we recieved during the darkess time of our lives.
You often hear about the monies that attorneys make in these cases. He deserverd and earned every dime he was paid. God Bless Mark and his family!

Evan handled our fall case caused by a raised sidewalk. Significant injuries were sustained and required 2 hip replacement operations. The entire case took about 15 months due to the severity of injuries. During that time, Evan communicated with us every two weeks to ask about the healing process and update us on the case. Since we were unfamiliar with the legal process of suing someone, his bedside manner was greatly appreciated. There were depositions, etc. and Evan clearly educated us on the process, so we felt more comfortable testifying. His expertise was apparent at every step of the way. We own much thanks to him for assisting us in receiving a just and substantial settlement.

We are so very thankful for the professionalism and commitment of the entire staff at this law firm. Peter Shapiro was informative and very helpful during the first phase of our case. Over all the staff’s communication, work ethic and knowledge were stellar.
As our case progressed we had the opportunity to work with Jonathon Wilson. He truly was a gift from God and amazing to work with. He was gracious and extremely patient as he walked us through every step of a very overwhelming process. We appreciated his honesty, candor and immeasurable support. Jonathon made sure he personalized our experience to the degree that we never felt like we were just one of many cases.
We highly recommend this law firm. They were all terrific.

An absolute amazing man and a wonderful staff to match. I didn't know how to use technology when he helped me in my time of need. So this is a few years after the matter. My husband had just passed away and I found out the insurance company didn't want to pay up. My sister referred me to this angel. He got me my husband's policy I was owed. It was a hard time for me and I didn't know how to deal with this part and i was crying uncontrollably . He was so professional, yet an understanding human. He told me to ake all the time I needed, because the thought of signing these papers seemed so final on his death, that it was a realization to me that he was really never going to come back to me. It's going to be 8 years on the 24th of February. Not a day goes by that I remember the kindness that he and his staff gave me, as this was and still is the first REAL loss (close to me), that I've experienced. Thank you cannot begin to express or acknowledge the respect, and love I have for this man and his staff. Thank you isn't enough for the help and genuine thoughtfulness y'all showed me.
YOU'RE AN ABSOLUTE ANGEL ON EARTH!

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.

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:

Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -

- 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.

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.
