I have to say this was my first time in a car accident and having to deal with an attorney. I was actually referred to them by a stranger sitting in the ER after my accident. I have no regrets...The entire team at The Northover Law Group was amazing. Jack Butler was my actual attorney he was very kind, empathic, and attentive, he responded to every call or text within 24 hrs most times the same day. I am very pleased with how they handle my case. Thank you all for your professionalism and quick work. I hope I don't have to come back, but if I am ever in another accident I will definitely be back. Thanks and God Bless ❤️ 🙏🏾

I recently had the pleasure of working with Attorney Nick Vocino and Amber Starks at Montlick & Associates, Injury Attorneys. They were great and I couldn't be more satisfied with their services. From the moment I called, I was met with professionalism, courtesy, and a genuine concern for my case. The staff was incredibly organized, and communication was always clear and timely. They took the time to explain every detail, making sure I understood my options and the legal process. What stood out most was their dedication to achieving the best outcome for me. I highly recommend Montlick & Associates to anyone seeking reliable, knowledgeable, and compassionate legal representation. They truly go above and beyond for their clients.

Our family has been lucky to receive Barbara’s counsel for over a year now and I will never be able to say enough good things about her and everyone at her office. She is such a strong, intelligent, and compassionate woman and I consider myself blessed to know her, regardless of the circumstances. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing legal counsel, I truly don’t believe you could find better than Barbara.

Wow - I read some of the other reviews and completely disagree. While the divorce system is basically broke and the attorneys will always win. Barbara was the worst.... She drained all money that was given to her and when fired she made sure she burned through every nickel in the last several days. She was terrible and unprepared in court and had no idea of who I was or what was being said or done in the courts. I have dealt with the legal system in my business(s) for many decades and she is quite possibly the worst I have had to deal with. I wish I would not have hired her and hope someone else does not make the same mistake I made. And of the several attorneys I hired Ms. Keon was the most expensive even though she was the shortest duration of representation and accomplished the least. Again, the system is broke - by design. Ms. Keon does not help the cause.

Barbara’s preparedness and pragmatism are well-documented. But I was most overly impressed with how intimate she became with my case, often able to remember and recite details even I had forgotten over the course of a 2-year legal battle. It was my perception she gives each of her clients this individualized and customized attention. Fully convinced I was successful in my divorce and custody hearings because I had the most savvy, and most experienced legal team. She’s the best money can buy.

I reached out to Dawn Jones Law when my daughter was hospitalized. While hospitalized my daughter was injured and I was not able to get her treatment team to return my calls after numerous attempts and several weeks of worrying about her care. Dawn was able to support our family by sending a letter to the hospital reminding them of their “goal to help make the patients’ experience from admission to discharge as pleasant as possible.” Within 24 hours we received a call from our daughter’s doctor. We are truly thankful for Dawn’s immediate and prompt support and genuine concern for our plight. I would highly recommend this law firm if you are looking for a caring and dedicated team of lawyers.

So I was referred to Attorney rouse by a good friend of my mother. I’m a cdl driver so I was looking for someone to help me with a major traffic violation that could have my license revoked for a long time. I called Mr. Rouse and he was very open about how we could go about things and what we should do moving forward with the case. He actually was very reasonable with pricing and worked with me as far as my budget. He advised me before I went to court to take a driver improvement course and to do some community service to make it a little easier on myself before going in front of the judge.this was actually great advice. We went to court and to my surprise the clerks and judge knew him on first name basis(that made me feel good) everything that he asked for , the judge granted. I left the court room only with a 300 dollar fine and no points on my cdl. Well later that night I didn’t know the rules as far as punishment for serious violations for cdl drivers. I check the dds and my cdl is suspended for 10 years, for a major lifetime violation. I immediately called attorney rouse and informed him. He advised me that the only thing we possibly could do was withdraw the plea. Normally with most lawyers, after the case is closed you have to pay another fee just to consult again. Attorney rouse was at the court house the next morning, I met him there and we withdrew the plea. Days passed by and I was weary because i was in fear of losing my livelihood. Attorney rouse advised me that since the head solicitor was not willing to give us a lesser please maybe we should try a bench trial. In my head when I think of trial, if you lose it could be bad for you. Of course this came with another fee, I really didn’t wanna try it but I took a step out in faith and trusted attorney rouse’s suggestion. We went to the bench trial and attorney rouse ate them alive. He told me months before, “ you could possibly beat this off of a technicality” I’m thinking nah man I’m cooked! Attorney rouse did his research and I walk out of the court room acquitted, all charges dropped. Before the trial attorney rouse and I talked about the fans leaving the stadium in the at the Atlanta Falcons vs. Tampa game and they still won. I’m not gonna lie I thought I was doomed but I watched him work in that court room for 2 hours straight, objection after objection…. When we walked out he looked at me and said you left the stadium but we won in OT! Hire this firm…. We highly recommend this guy. He’s straight up and down

Mr. Rouse was consulted on managing several property easements for the congregation. He promptly returned my calls. He answered our questions about the nature of both temporary and easements. We were interested in change or impact upon property valuation. He helped us to think through the long-term impact on the congregation's properties. He provided helpful insight while encouraging us to stay true to the work of the congregation in the community.

There aren’t enough words to express how much I appreciate Moses Kim! I started my case with another lawyer and due to unforeseen circumstances, my case was passed along to Moses. I am extremely thankful for that turn of events. As Moses got to know me and my case more intimately, he realized the need to have the case removed from the county of the defending lawyers to create a more even playing field. Moses is a very caring person seeking only justice and what is rightly due to patients that have fallen victim to true malpractice. It took several years to collect information, secure credible expert physicians from several other states, and prepare a solid case that would stand strong in any courtroom. He kept me informed through each step of the process and asked if I was willing to wait for each portion. He was patient with me, keeping my best interest at heart… best interest of what was due to me and best interest of what I could mentally and physically withstand over the course of the years. He was honest and never lead me to feel like a “paycheck”, I was an individual who became permanently disabled due to malpractice and he sought restitution for loss of my eyesight. I cannot thank Moses enough and would recommend his services to anyone who is patient and willing to follow his lead. It is worth it in the end to expose medical wrong doing in hopes it would spare someone else experiencing the same tragedy in the future!

I highly recommend Robert Hyden. I was emotional, lost and down on my luck after being arrested for DUI. Robert assured me that my negative/doubtful perception surrounding it was temporary. Upon first meeting him, I felt an overwhelming sense of relief. He explained the importance of recognizing what happened and taking action for moving forward. I knew at that moment I was not in this situation alone. My DUI charge resulted in a favorable and desirable outcome. If you’re ready to put the past behind you and start working to preserve your future, call Robert today. Do not wait!

My teenaged son, while intelligent in many aspects of life, made a very bad decision and was arrested along with a couple of friends for drug possession (felony) & alcohol (minor in possession). Doug represented me in another case & delivered very favorable results so I was confident when I approached him with my son’s case. Doug took my son and another boy’s case and represented them as co-defendents. Doug worked with a State Prosecutor in/out of court for a weeks, and in the end their cases were dismissed. The boys were required to attend drug and alcohol classes & complete community service hours. Needless to say, my wife, son & I were more than pleased with the outcome! Doug held our hand and explained to us in detail what to expect in every step of the legal process. In the courtroom he’s a calm and collective & is well respected by his peers. Watching him interact/work in the courtroom ensured us we made the right decision to his firm to represent our then high school aged son.

I hired this agency at the beginning of 2024. And today was the first time I spoke to the attorney that "handled" my case. Mr. Shannon was rude to me and told me while they were working on my case I was bugging them then stated that he no longer will help me even though for some reason my hospital bill is still outstanding. I basically paid him to do nothing. Not happy and would never refer this law firm to anyone.

I chose van Sant for my personal injury case after a car accident. I was so pleased with the service I received and the settlement I got! I didn’t have to worry about paperwork or insurance agents, ect. They took care of EVERYTHING for me so I could focus on my recovery. They really went the extra mile. I didn’t have a car because mine had been totaled in the wreck so they offered to schedule me Ubers to get to and from dr appointments. And I paid nothing out of pocket. I worked mainly with Josh. He was always very kind and professional, he explained everything to me and answered all my questions.

Joshua Williams, my attorney, has been exceptional. He maintains regular contact with me, ensuring I'm updated on my case's progress every two weeks or even more frequently. Working with Katie Anthony has been an absolute pleasure. She goes above and beyond to ensure that you receive the maximum compensation for your pain and suffering. What sets her apart is her commitment to clear communication. She keeps you informed about every aspect of your case and even provided counsel on related matters. Katie is incredibly trustworthy and honest. I wholeheartedly recommend Van Sant Law Firm to anyone who has been in an accident or needs someone who will genuinely look out for them.

He worked diligently on my years-long case, always keeping me informed of the next step in the process. He took the time to meet with me and advise me on my options.

Doug came highly, HIGHLY recommended by a friend, characterizing him as a bulldog and will never surrender his client's due...under any circumstances, and I had engaged Doug, after having had an egregious experience with another firm. From our first meeting, Doug has ensured that I was well-healed on the dynamics and macinations that would ensure, throughout my case. Each time that Doug and I have met to discuss my case and strategic considerations, there has never, ever been so much as a hint of we all tend to project onto his industry, mostly distrust and self-centered objectives. He is unbelievably responsive, no matter what time of day that I send emails. (When the Hades does he ever sleep?!!!) If anyone needs an attorney who is like a bulldog, Doug isn't your man, but, if you need an attorney who can slit a throat, without bleeding being detected, Doug gets the job done in a way that makes you feel good about having to do the things warranted, whenever doing legal battle has become unavoidable.

Mr. Powell immediately made me feel I was his number one concern. Always kept me informed and updated on everything. He patiently explained in detail the process every step of the way. Making it easy to make a firm decision on how I wanted to handle my case. I highly recommend using Mr. Powell and his firm.

I couldn’t have had a more compassionate and understanding lawyer for my son’s death… Mr. Roger Krause went above and beyond to accommodate and get me compensation for my baby… No matter the time of day or night he always made sure he followed back up with me and I couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer.. He would be someone I rehired if I ever needed anything… Thank you for getting Justice for Legend… 💙🧩🧡💛🩷

An attorney friend recommended Roger Krause - calling him “the smartest man I know.” My family quickly found that he was right. Besides being EXTREMELY clever-I found Mr. Krause (and his staff) to be fair, honest and VERY responsive. This is the office you want on your side in any dispute. They will not forget about you and will work diligently to get things done. My family received immediate attention from Mr. Krause and his staff and more assistance and kindness than we could have ever hoped for. In this field, experience means everything and we were so thankful that they knew their stuff. Our family cannot thank this law firm enough for their good work.

We've had the misfortune of being on the wrong end of two fairly significant car crashes in the course of a year or so. Ben was recommended to me by someone well respected in the Cobb County judicial circles. He and his staff did not disappoint. By nature, we are not litigious and have never filed a lawsuit before. We explained to Ben we were not out to ruin anyone or seek a windfall. He was respectful of our wishes and we got fair settlements in both injury cases, both times in a very timely fashion.

There simply are not enough positive words to adequately describe the compassion, empathy, honesty, transparency, and professionalism I experienced during my case with the Persons Firm for an auto accident. Ben and his Team (Tricia and Katrina) treated me with the utmost respect, dignity and care. They were always available, just a phone call or an email, and were incredibly thorough in researching and reviewing my case as they pursued justice. Throughout the difficult time, I took comfort in knowing that I was in the hands of a trustworthy, upstanding man of character like Ben, who would help me right the wrong and ultimately find a resolve to the trauma I had endured. Ben really cares about his clients and their well-being as well as their outcome. If ever you find yourself in need of an Attorney that has integrity, and treats you like a part of the family, The Persons Firm will be a blessing as well as the gift of peace that you deserve. Trust me when I say, they make you feel that you are being taken care of, and that you are not just a number, you are a name. As a client, I am completely satisfied. I would definitely recommend Ben Persons and his team. Ben you and your Team are truly outstanding. May God continue to bless you in all that you do. I wish you continued success with your Firm and in life.

I had very little faith that we would be compensated for our loss without legal help. The Lazenby Law firm went above and beyond to make sure that we were treated fairly and compensated for my injury. Shane is a brilliant lawyer with integrity and put me at ease with every decision that we had to make. I would highly recommend his law firm!! Thank you Shane Lazenby!

Mary Lewis is an exceptional attorney. She’s confident, honest, caring, thorough and knows what is necessary to win cases. Upon taking my case, Attorney Mary Lewis immediately went to work by sending a letter of representation to the insurance adjuster, gathering medical records and putting together a demand letter. Attorney Mary Lewis leaves no stones unturned. She knows when and when not to obtain written expert opinions, medical narratives, and estimates to solidify your case. Attorney Mary Lewis not only succeeded in winning a settlement from the opposing insurance carrier, but also negotiated my medical bills down 75%. In addition, she pursued an un-insurance motorist claim and won a settlement with it as well, which makes her an awesome, can-do attorney that you can trust, relax and allow her to do what she does best, which is satisfy her clients by winning cases.

In April of 2014, my wife and daughter were involved in a serious car collision. We hired Jay Nohr to handle our case. There were several insurance companies involved so it ended up taking a little over four years to settle. Jay guided us through this long process, never giving up and was so prepared for our trial that the other insurance company settled the night before our trial was to begin. He had witnesses lined up, doctors ready to testify, big charts and photos blown up on poster boards. We were ready and the other side knew he was prepared. Over the years he kept us well informed, was very realistic with our case and is a very honorable man. He is not your typical lawyer, very caring and a wonderful family man. We were very pleased with him and the settlement he was able to get for us. Thanks Jay for taking such good care of us.

In June of 2017 my husband and I found ourselves engulfed in our worst nightmare. My 6 month old son had been throwing up for a week and after 4 ER visits it was determined that he had a subdural hematoma…AKA bleeding in the brain. With this diagnosis we were scared, worried, confused – we wanted to know how, why, what do we do??? And that is how our own personal hell began – with this diagnosis we were also being accused of harming our sweet boy and he was ripped from our arms. As a mother I felt like my heart had been ripped from my chest. I couldn’t understand why this was happening. The only information I had to go on is what the doctors filled my head with – these types of injuries only happen from abuse and that my son was lucky to be alive. I was in shock and absolutely devastated. With this knowledge I knew that they would never release him to go home from the hospital with us. In a panic I called our families and my father-in-law immediately sprang into action – and for that I am forever grateful – his quick action and with a little help from Google we found Jay. From our very first meeting with Jay I felt some relief. He explained what we were up against, what we could expect to happen – and most importantly that these types of cases happen all too often – and that despite what these doctors had led me to believe, there is in fact many different causes for my son’s diagnosis. I won’t bore you with all the gritty medical details, but finding Jay, who was extremely knowledgeable about these types of issues, was what saved our family. Throughout the 4 months that we endured this hell every step Jay took was exactly the right one. I trusted him 100% to do everything in his power to get our baby back home to us….and he did. I hate to imagine what could’ve happened to us if we had hired anyone other than Jay. He was extremely educated and informed on everything surrounding our case. He was also patient with me (a distraught mom) – which couldn’t have been an easy task. I know he must’ve been very busy – but he always made time for me and made me feel like our case was his top priority. He was everything we could’ve hoped to find in an attorney – plus more. I wish that I could give him 100 stars - a five star rating just doesn’t do him justice.

We used Curtis for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. From the minute I called with questions, he took his time explaining our options over the phone without even coming in. He spent at least 45 minutes on the phone with me with no charge and then met with my husband and me for a good hour in the office with no charge. So the 1 hour FREE consultation definitely holds true. It's an embarrassing situation to be in to admit that you’re in such a financial hardship that you can't pay your bills and stay afloat with the everyday expenses. He never once made us feel bad or ashamed or looked down upon. He said his job was to help us and our family get relief from this tremendous burden and that he did. His wife Ashley is the administrator and was always helpful, friendly and courteous. In the midst of our bankruptcy we were still struggling to get back on top of things and were all of the sudden looking at foreclosure because we had become officially 2 months behind on our mortgage. They responded to the situation immediately with concern, caring and assurance that they would do everything they could to help us keep our house. Never once did they say "well you'll have to come with X amount of money before we'll even consider this". And in the end we did keep our house! From the beginning they always made us feel that they were truly there to help us and the money was not of concern. Of course they expect to be paid for their services as anyone else but I have spoken to many attorneys before speaking with them and the first thing out of their mouth was how much we would need to come up with for them to handle our case. Obviously if you're in a position of having to file bankruptcy you don't have hundreds, much less thousands of dollars just laying around! I can't say enough about how grateful we are for their help and even after it was all over they said to call them if we ever need them in the future. You won't find anyone better!

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:

  1. What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?
    Confirm the lawyer has a successful track record with similar cases.
  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?

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.
