Mr. Damien Hoffman is one of the most ethical, devoted, and intelligent attorneys I have had the pleasure of working with. He is down to earth, as well as a wonderful communicator. He is not only compassionate and empathetic, but logical and straightforward. His knowledge in medical negligence is extensive. He is a critical thinker who well versed in the law not only in medical negligence, wrongful death, and catastrophic injuries, but in business litigations as well. I would highly recommend him for you legal needs.

My practice has retained Mindy McLaughlin and several malpractice defense cases. We have found Mindy to be an OUTSTANDING medical malpractice defense attorney. She is always extremely well prepared, presents her case in a logical and thorough manner. Mindy uses her intelligence, experience and great knowledge of medicine to “overpower” lesser attorneys. I would use her again in an instant if the need arises. I have seen a very few attorneys that are on her skill level. Thanks

Zimmet & Quarles provided outstanding representation. The money I received from my settlement has helped me feel more secure financially in my later years. The best part of my experience with Zimmet & Quarles was meeting with Ron and the staff who were very kind. I appreciated that they were kind, truthful, straightforward and told me what to expect.

I hired John to assist me with an auto accident case. John was a pleasure to work with. When I first met John, he had a professional and calm demeanor, which immediately put me at ease. The auto accident left me in pain, anxious, and worried about paying my medical bills. John was very reassuring and encouraged me to continue the treatment that I needed so I could most importantly, start to feel better. I found John to be very knowledgeable of the legal process. He communicated well with me during the process and kept me up-to-date via phone calls and e-mails. He worked diligently on my case and I received full compensation for our injuries. I received a much larger settlement by using John than if I had settled with the insurance company without using an attorney. I had met with the insurance company prior to hiring John, and the amount they wanted to settle for would not have covered hardly any of the treatment that I needed. John went above and beyond to negotiate my major medical bills down to a small percentage of what I was initially required to pay. He even followed up on a couple of the lingering bills after our case was settled. I would highly recommend John to friends and family and would use him again if needed.

During our meeting Atty Hogan actually paid attention. You could see in his eyes that he was listening and not thinking about anything else but the meeting..... He was very knowledgeable and friendly made me feel important. I would recommend this lawyer just because he listened.

Mr. Cohen is a passionate attorney who will relentlessly advocate on your behalf and litigate your dispute with fire and fury. I believe that at every stage of my case when he represented me I had the baddest dog in the ring who would fight to the end with a fierceness and ferocity that would help me recover a fair and just result. If you are in need of an excellent trial attorney, I recommend you give his firm a call. You will not be disappointed.

The Fina Law Firm was able to handle an insurance issue for me that I was not able to handle for myself. Mr. Fina knew what to do to get a positive result with little effort on my part. He was competent, knowledgeable, easy to work with and followed up with me in a timely manner that the issue had been handled to my satisfaction. I definitely will use The Fina Law Firm again. Thank you Mr. Fina and staff.

In 2004 I lost a military career due to an uninsured motorist injuring my back while running a red light. Larry took me through the entire process and via my uninsured motorist policy, got me a settlement which allowed me to not only cover my extensive medical bills, but also to restart my life in a different direction. I'll never forget what Larry did for me and I would unquestionably recommend him to my own family for any legal needs. If you take one thing away from this review, let it be that Larry will approach your case as if he were representing his own family.

Marsad has a solid reputation. He's in this field for all the right reasons to help those in need of defense for fighting what they deserve. He always makes it a point to answer anyone's questions and refer them to someone if they are not a potential client for him. He always fights hard for his clients and communicates the process along the way as easily to be understood as possible. Never has he been unavailable via phone, text or email. I highly recommend Marsad Quraishi for any personal injury/accident needs. He is an attorney who believes highly in fulfilling his ethical duty by always doing what is best for his clients. On top of this he's an avid fisherman who loves to give. One of the best men I know who loves to share his experiences in life, whether it's law advice or fishing. A friend and confidant; never trusted anyone more. Give him a call and you won't regret it. He's a true gift from God!

Kelley Grant & Tanis has truly figured it out. They have a great attitude of service. They guide and help you during the process. Excellent positive approach. They have a special person, Carrie, who communicates with the client regularly during the title transfer period. We appreciate her willingness to help us solve problems we may encounter.
Patricia was excellent to work with; knowledgeable, efficient and considerate.
Jerron is not only an excellent lawyer but also personable. A rare combination in this profession.
Overall this is a company that understands why they are in business. To serve the customer!! So many companies miss this point.
We highly recommend this company for any title or other real estate related legal services.

I recently had the opportunity to work alongside Kelley Grant and Tanis PA on two different (and unrelated) matters. Ms. Della Joseph and Mr. Corey Carano are both assets to this firm. This law firm displayed professionalism, courtesy, and exceptional legal acumen. They were thorough, responsive, and always on top of every detail, which made working with them a pleasure. Highly recommend them!

Excelente servicio del Abogado Luis Guerra y todo el equipo de trabajo. Llegamos a ellos con muchas dudas sobre mi ajuste de estatus y todas fueron contestadas con mucha profesionalidad y mi proceso fue tal cual nos explicĂł desde un principio.
Hoy, ya soy residente permanente y estoy junto a mi familia que era el objetivo principal de mantenernos unidos. No creo que haya otra oficina con la calidad de Guerra Saenz.
Por si tienes duda sobre elegirlos, mi proceso no tuvo 1 solo error desde el inicio y fue totalmente virtual ya no vivimos en el estado de la Florida.

Our family worked with the team from Emerson Straw for almost seven years as we awaited our trial. Throughout the long journey, their team proved to be shrewd, professional, and deeply compassionate to our family's circumstances. We couldn’t have asked for a better legal team to guide us through such a stressful process. They were truly exceptional! We highly recommend their services to anyone in need of dedicated legal support.

Car accidents are never easy to deal with and regardless of who is at fault can result in life-changing catastrophes and financial burdens for all parties involved. The attorneys and paralegals at Emerson Straw handled all my concerns with professionalism, privacy and communicated frequently throughout the entire process. I was never left wondering what was happening and they explained each step of the litigation process in detail to ensure I remained well informed. Without having prior knowledge or understanding legal jargon, the Emerson Straw team never made me feel inadequate or incompetent. They scrutinized and resolved every collection to ensure my credit would not be negatively impacted in the future. I did not have to communicate with insurance companies or collection agencies, they took representing to a whole new level. From my initial online inquiry to final closing, I was impressed at how this team really worked together. They have set the bar extremely high for legal representation.

Can’t believe it’s taken me nearly 3yrs to write a review…
I have been a client of Spencer’s for those 3yrs. Without using too many I’s - I really want it to be known that you really will be taken care of thru and thru.
•The entire staff is a real delight to work with
•They genuinely care; at no point was there any contentions should a hiccup arise due to unforeseen circumstances
•Conveniently located in front of Publix - “where shopping is a pleasure” but so is being Spencer’s client
It’s been nothing but a pleasure becoming familiar with these processes, headaches and all, but more so getting to know the people who are putting up a fight for you.
Everyone will make it a point to introduce themselves and help you however they can along the way.
Without using too many more words…
From the bottom of my heart, truly and honestly, thank you. I have never felt so welcomed and appreciated to be a client - anywhere for that matter.
Thank you all.
The experience throughout the entire process will let you know that Spencer has cultivated an excellent workplace with high standards, all without losing that human touch & connection.
Again, and again, Thank you all for everything throughout these last couple of years.
