I am very happy I used Lerner and Rowe. My case took three years, but it was very well worth it. My attorney Mr. Howard and my call rep Gabby Fernandez made my three years go quickly. All questions were always answered with no delay. I always felt welcome.

After two and a half years, I ended up being very satisfied with my case. I met Glen Lerner 20 years ago when he would come into my restaurant in Vegas before going to his gym. He made me believe in his firm. Tom Howard and his team were awesome. I'm very happy.

Mark is an excellent and professional lawyer. From the beginning to the end he spoke to me in language that I could understand. He is hard working, honest and very fair. He kept me well informed during my entire case. He was on top of my case, always answered my questions in a timely manner and I would highly recommend his services to others.

Mark took the time to get to know me, my needs and respected what I wanted and what I felt comfortable with. He kept me informed and treated me as if I was his only client. He is respected by his peers as a tough but straight foreward opponent. That goes a long way when it comes to negotiations and in the courtroom. I whole heartedly recommend Mark to you.

I had contacted Mr. Afsharimehr to review a few family law documents that I was helping a family member with. He helped guide me through the forms to be filed and gave some extra advice on future proceedings. I strongly suggest to anybody looking for a quality and caring attorney to speak with Mr. Afsharimehr first. Thanks Afshin!

I contacted Afshin to help me settle my debt issues with my creditors. He took a personalized approach to reviewing my financial situation and gave me the best options to move forward. Afshin offered me a free debt analysis and savings estimate to show me where I could save money. He skillfully negotiated with my Collection accounts, Medical bills, Credit cards, and Personal loans to reduce my balances/payments. Afshins professional responsiveness to settling my debt provided me the financial security and the peace of mind I needed. His affordable expert services transformed my debt situation into an organized and fiscal responsible future. Thank you again Afshin.

Michael Pearson has handled a number of aviation issues for our Part 135 charter company. His aviation experience is so vast that there was never any time wasted on training our lawyer on our industry specific regulations.
Our biggest case involve a hostile takeover attempt involving a fraudulent investment group. Mr. Pearson stood by us and fought the issue all the way through until he successfully recaptured our company for us. I whole heartedly recommend his services.

Our case began in 2022 and just closed in 2024. There were some very difficult moments but we are beyond thrilled to finally hear, that this case against us has been officially closed.
We are so grateful for J.C's expertise, kindness and willingness to take on our case. At the beginning of our case, he reached out to our home insurance, asking them to provide counsel before the deadline was up for a response.
His advice advice during the deposition with very intimidating tactics from the opposing attorneys, helped us tremendously. His character is calm, patient yet with such an effective demeaner.
We can not express how blessed and grateful we are to have found him and all the associates in the firm including Jennifer, his paralegal. She was so kind and compassionate with us.
We award JC the most positive reviews and recommend him to everyone! He is simply one of the best in Tucson! He is competent, capable and professional.

I was hit by a taxi as a pedestrian. I tried to handle it myself, but the taxi company's insurance wasn't working with my medical bills. I hired Simon and he got me everything I deserved. He took the time to really help me understand the process and was really friendly. Not what you'd expect from an attorney.

Mr. Kennedy represented me several years ago for a car accident case. I was injured and at the time I didn't have health insurance. Mr. Kennedy helped me get medical care and made sure that at the end of the day my settlement was fair and the bills I had to pay for medical care were also fair. I couldn't have been more pleased. You can't go wrong with Simon Kennedy.

Mr Syme represented me in a Criminal Case. I was the last person I thought would ever get into trouble but wrong crowds put me there. I had never been in trouble before. All I can say is I thank him from the bottom of my heart. Mr. Syme took me on as a client and at all times was very professional and kind. James has a lot of knowledge and experience. He always made himself available to me. He was aggressive with my defense and I knew he had my best interest at heart. Thank you so much for getting me that second chance to get back on track. It's been 14 years and I'm still on track and never been in trouble again. If I were to see him on the street I would give him a big hug! I highly recommend him.

My family has used Mr. Syme for an assortment of legal issues over the years and every time the results have been as good or better than what was expected. I myself spent 7 months in court working on custody issues with the ex. Mr Syme did not give me unrealistic expectations and helped me to achieve conclusions in the most equitable and cost effective manner possible. My ex's attorney insisted on drawing everything out and keeping the meter running the whole while. The ex ended up paying thousands more than I did for legal representation and the final decision was nearly word for word in line with my initial petition. The man is old school, he'll shoot you straight even if you don't like the answer, and most importantly he genuinely cares about his people. I wouldn't even think of trusting anyone else...

I hired Mr. Munoz to help with a personal injury case when I was hit by a driver that was under the influence of prescription drugs.

Alejandro Munoz is the most hard working, honest lawyer you can find on the market! I have been involved in multiple car accidents and speeding tickets in the past, but Mr. Munoz took care of everything! I had to do close to nothing while he worked hard to dismiss multiple tickets and provide me with the most consultation possible for injuries that were incurred during my accidents. Not only is he hard working but he is more than honest, letting you know exactly what to expect and giving you accurate outcomes of your case. No sugar coating and no BS. If you want to bestow your trust into a lawyer, Mr. Munoz is your man, as he will provide you with the best service at a great price!

Christopher J Palmisano Law took all the stress away from dealing with the insurance company of the person that caused the accident. He and his team acted quickly and did not stop negotiations until Geico agreed to cover all costs and more. I felt like a priority when working with him and his staff and was very satisfied with the outcome. Before contacting him all my own efforts to deal with the insurance ended in a headache. I am extremely thankful for the referral to him from a colleague. I highly recommend him if you want a lawyer that is professional, efficient and hardworking.

For anyone looking for an attorney, I will highly recommend Chris as being your guy! We were in need of an attorney and didn’t know who or where to turn. A friend had recommended him and he was a godsend. He was very thorough and helped us throughout the process. He was the calm in the storm, which we definitely needed. Thanks to Chris, we were able to put that issue in our past and enjoy life moving forward.

Look no further if your ever in need a the BEST Defense Attorney in AZ! I live in California and was so scared when I was trying to find an Attorney for my son who made a very stupid mistake. I was referred to John by another AZ Attorney who didn't have time for my son's case. As soon as I spoke to John, he made my anxiety attack disappear. I knew from the start he was experienced and could get us through this nightmare; and he did. John kept in touch with me throughout the whole process and answered all of my questions and made me and my son feel at ease. John also worked with me on his fee. I know this kind of hard work is expensive, but John worked out a very reasonable fee and saved us money. Thank you John, for all your hard work and dedication to my sons case. We appreciate you!

Wow, where to begin. This case was the first time I was ever a defendant. Scared of not knowing what happens, I reluctantly found Mr. Moore. He used his experience to explain the entire process to me and put my mind at ease. I would definitely use Mr. Moore in the future. We won our case( SLAM DUNK) and now I am in a better place for it. Mr Moore stood by my side and refuted all the lies propagated by the plaintiff. I cannot put in words how grateful I am to have the pleasure to do business with Mr Moore.

I cannot stress enough how much John Moore did for me in a time of crisis, frustration, fear and stress. From the minute I called his office and talked to his partner, they were both very responsive, friendly and started looking into my case right away, before even meeting with John in person.
During my initial meeting with John I was a complete wreck. I was nervous, embarrassed, about to cry, and my mind was all over the place. From the very beginning of him offering me water and walking me to his office, I already felt better knowing there was NO JUDGEMENT and that he really just wanted to listen to the details of what had happened during my free consultation.
John was very friendly and easy going, and didn't have that "cocky" lawyer appeal I had seen before and didn't like might I add. He was very honest with the fact that I did, indeed, need a lawyer and that it would be expensive but that he would charge way less than other "big name" lawyers. He gave me the time to shop around and said to contact him if I decided to move forward with him as my representation with absolutely no pressure.
He was exactly right! I went to 3 other lawyers and he spot on about the price (competitors being anywhere form 3-6k more)! Not only was the price at others TOO high for me to afford or pay, but the environment and personality's of the others I visited were dreadful. One was a complete salesman and then asked me for 10k, another was basically falling asleep during my consultation and then said, "well, there isn't much I can do," and the third was so unmemorable that I can't even recall anything about him!
While money was a factor in choosing the right lawyer, I am a big "gut instinct feeling" type person, and knew that I would ultimately choose the person who best resonated with me! I feel lucky and blessed, because not only was that person John, but he was the most affordable as well. I truly believe it was destiny for me to find him.
Specifically, once hired, John kept me in the loop at all times and more importantly- did everything I needed him to do. He asked the right questions, gathered all of my information, handled the court dates and mostly, kept me calm. I kept asking him if there is anything I should do, or how worried should I be? His response was always calm and with a smile, "Don't do anything and don't worry... you really don't have to worry." This was so hard to hear because I WAS worried. Worried about my future, going to jail and just in general, was a big ball of stress. He totally helped calm me down and even assured me it was okay for me to cross the US/Mexico border to go on a retreat I had already planned! Not only did he tell me to go, but he told me to have a great time!
About my case, he handled it well... beyond well... COULDN'T HAVE GONE BETTER! I was charged with a Felony 4 for a first offense shoplifting case. I was so afraid of reading about my future and what being a "felon" would do to my life. Not only did he get it dropped to a Misdemeanor, but he also pushed up on the prosecuting lawyer to allow me to take the shoplifting diversion program, in which once completed, the case would be closed. Oh happy day! He did it and all I had to do was show up to court, plead "no contest" and then agree to complete the diversion program, which I did within two weeks!
In my opinion, John went ABOVE AND BEYOND what he had to. I learned more in his free consultation than the other three free consultations combined! In conclusion, if you are looking for a lawyer I CANNOT stress enough how perfect John is for the job! While he was my criminal defense lawyer, I am confident that whatever your legal issue he could help and do so with confidence, a smile and grace! He was honestly the best person to help me navigate around a legal system I know nothing about! You will not be sorry if you need to hire him for any reason!!!

Lorenz and Kari were a pleasure to work with. He worked with me on everything in meeting my court room needs even though they were not his normal type of practice. His rates were affordable and he made it convenient to represent my case from the other side of the country (I live in Florida). Their small family operated practice was professional, responsive and easy to talk to. With that being said I hope to never need his services again. ;)

This guy is awesome. He came to my house even though I didn't get off work until 6PM. He explained everything to me until I understood what was going on with my case. He didn't talk down to me and didn't make me feel dumb for not understanding. He's young but he's extremely smart. Very detail oriented and he doesn't let anything get passed him.

I contacted Lorenz for some business law help. Specifically, I had some questions about a contract and NDA that were being drawn up, and I wanted some answers from a local attorney. It was important for me to understand the language of the contract, and there were a few things that weren't quite making sense. Lorenz provided quick responses, and a no-nonsense translation and explanation of the legal language that I was stuck on, as well as great advice on how to move forward. Not only would I contact Lorenz again for legal help, I would also recommend him to anyone in Show Low, Lakeside, or the surrounding areas. He's a local legal expert who's easy to work with.

Matthew did an excellent job representing my questionable DWI/DV case. Matthew came highly recommended by friends at work. He kept me very well informed and explained everything to me regarding my case. Whenever I had a question, he would take the time to make sure it was completely answered and he always promptly responded to my calls and emails. He knew exactly what my rights were and he did not allow the prosecution to take advantage of me. Matthew went over all of my options and I received the best possible outcome. Matthew will look at every aspect of your case and come up with the best plan to defend you. Many lawyers tell their clients just to take the plea without even looking at the facts. Matthew will truly work hard and defend you. He quickly mitigated all the stress I felt surrounding my case, by relieving me and allowing me to get back to my day to day life. The state will press charges against you that can destroy your life, and career based on a police officers opinion. You want to make sure you are represented by the best, and I feel that Matthew Rabb is hands down one of the best lawyers around!

My husband and I highly recommend Gary to anyone who is overwhelmed trying to handle the aftermath of a car accident. Gary has brought us safely though two totaled cars, serious injuries, and the tangled web that is insurance/health care.
We found Gary to be conscientious, effective, and an excellent communicator. He provides a reasonable overview of the initial claim, and the case as it evolves, which is crucial to a solid resolution. Having Gary navigate our insurer and the other driver's insurer made all of the difference to our being able to rest and heal from our injuries.

My case avoided actual litigation because of Gary. I was very pleased with every aspect of dealing with this firm and directly with Gary Hudson Jr.

Melanie won a lawsuit against another lawfirm that falsely accused our towing company. She was an amazing litigator, and has tremendous organizational and listening skills. She's a fighter all wrapped up in a little pkg!! I'd hire her in a heartbeat!!
Read more
18 Apr, 2015 by Don
I am the owner of a large business so hiring lawyers is something I have had to do as part of the job many times. Here is why I give Melanie 5 stars:
*She was referred by an attorney that knew her by being her opposition in a hotly contested case and he had a lot of great things to say (and I trust him, completely, as he is my friend)
*She screened me as the client and not the other way around, although she encourged hat. She won't take the client hat can pay her but only the client that has a real case she is willing to sign her name on. She is not free, don't get me wrong, but she's more than fair in her rates.
*She is up front about costs and risks - it's the firs thing she explains. Unlike almost everyone else, there was never "I'm getting you paid" or someing equally ridiculous. It was "I can't gaurantee anything in this business, no matter how correct you are legally or facually" - what? Honesty?
*She is aggressive as can be, but professional - I am not embarassed by an over-the-top crazy person, but I am proud of the fact that she is no taking anyone's crap
*She is not afraid to sue and will do what she says she will in her leters to the other lawyer (it really is not a threat - it is what is coming if there is not a resolution)
*She litigates cases as fast as possible, doesn't take BS from anyone, and remains ethical no mater what - she tells her cliens (me, at least and she said everyone - I of course believe her) that she will not ever pursue a case to the point of crossing lines she is not 100% proud of, as in, no loss of integrity and unethical activity is not up for discussion
*Dirty lawyers make her sick - she will fight them and be mad with you! She is genuinely PO'd when she calls to tell you what was filed for no reason or bad reasons like billing the file
*She is in favor of the fastest resolution - she encouraged setlement at every step and encouraged me when appropriate - she is not in it to bill the file and does not bill in the shower
*Nobody working with her is any different - her partner is her husband and they are high school sweethearts. Silly as it sounds, they are as good as it gets by way of "good people' and they have an adorable family you will get to know if you hang around long enough or simple talk with her or her husband, Justin
*Remeber the saying "good things come in small packages" - small firm, small lady (she's not exactly the tallest one in the room, lol), but not at all small work - impressive is an understatement!
*She knows the HOA community well - the regulars know her and her firm, and they don't want to mess with her unless they think they can win - insurance defense is anoher story, as that means the atorney can bill and bill and bill until someone in the big insurance company finally notices and then like magic it's time to setle! Melanie predicted this like a psychic, although she's not- she's just been there many, many times.
*Ingelligence. I don't mean run of the mill smart but really, really sharp!
*Ethical yet aggressive as I could have hoped for. IF you don't think this firm is strong enough for you, then you want the dirty attorney and not the one that acts professionally and follows ethical rules all attorneys are supposed to follow
*Economical. NO billing in the shower or anywhere near it! Fair billing at fair rates. You do get what you pay for, but you actually get a bit more here. If you go to the lower rate lawyer, you will likely have an ambulance chaser type of person.
is a fair billing that is lower than most and what you pay for...much lower and you get the ambulance chaser
*I would refer this firm and specifically Melanie to my kids - that is how happy I am.

I engaged Matt LaVelle to help negotiate a successful conclusion to a complex business problem. Some of our family trusts made equity investments and also were leaders to an operating business, which is very heavily regulated. The business performed poorly. Matt was able to identify a buyer for the business who planned to re-purpose the main asset. The relationship was complex because we had a business operator, landlord and other investors involved. He was able to negotiate a very successful conclusion, even though the landlord turned hostile and the business operator ended up with little to show from the arrangement.
Without Matt's personal minute-to-minute attention and his sensitivity to all nuances for the various parties involved, this transaction could never have come together. The end result was a very good outcome for the landlord, staff, customers, the new business owner/operator, and all things considered, for us. The former business operator achieved a graceful exit without liability or potential legal action. Matt truly negotiated a win, win, win arrangement for all parties. I would heartily recommend Matt to assist with complex litigation and sensitive negotiations. He is bright, capable, experienced and results oriented. He is 5 stars in my book.

I was involved in a car crash where a guy with a 20ft trailer passed me on the shoulder of the one lane on-ramp shortly before entering the freeway. I was represented by an attorney who dropped the case when I was unwilling to accept a ridiculous settlement offer from the insurance company (Allstate). I called all of those injury / accident law offices which advertise constantly on the radio and billboards, the answer was always the same „Sorry, if it’s already in litigation, we are unable to take the case“
When I was about to give up and represent myself, I stumbled upon Eric’s phone number and I was surprised that I was able to talk to him directly, not through some „intake secretary“. He immediately told me that he would be happy to represent me but that he had an appointment on the day of the hearing which was scheduled a few days later. He called the court and was able to get another continuance, (the hearing had already been rescheduled several times).
The end of the story: We won the case. Eric was extremely well prepared and I was impressed how he presented the case. I don’t think that any attorney could have done a better job. The other party was represented by a mean former prosecutor who tried to blame me for the crash. I am not sure what the outcome would have been without Eric.

I was in the middle of a personal injury case that started heading south in late 2007. Mr Thomson guided me through the process necessary to substitute him as my counsel. His representation through a trial setting resulted in a defense counsel, representing my opponent, offering five times the settlement amount that was offered through prior counsel. He explained to me later that not all attorneys accept pi clients with his commitment to follow it through a trial setting. In my experience, his professionalism and courtesy toward me as with others involved was beyond exceptional. As client, my views were in part unrealistic and perhaps naive or ignorant are accurate descriptors. Anyway, he remained cool headed right down to the wire and set aside time for me along the way and afterwards to make sure I felt in the know. I think that you will agree his people skills and professional candor make him second to none. I mean that he won't waste your time and you will find his manner extraordinary.

Charles "Tony" Piccuta is a very personable, diligent and highly skilled attorney. He's a good listener and communicator: always keeps me updated about my case, educates me during the most difficult times of my life, and strives to serves my interest (a legal professional myself, I am aware that good lawyers perceive the legal industry as a business, yet the best ones view it as helping profession).
Tony is a knowledgeable and tenacious attorney (admitted to practice law in four different states, a very rare scenario, which enabled him to see personal injury or Tort Law from different perspectives. Each state in the United States has its own personal injury laws and familiarity with two or more states' tort laws means a broader grasp of personal injury law and practice).
Before contacting Tony I did a very thorough research to find the BEST counsel (considered depth of experience in courtroom, past litigation success and professionalism); I noticed all the attributes of a great lawyer and didn't hesitate to hire him. Simply put, Tony is the Best and I highly recommend him!

I couldn’t be happier with the outcome of my PI case. Unfortunately I ended up rear ended by someone texting on the freeway. I had no idea what to do once I left the hospital. Rayven and Anthony walked me through the whole process. Rayven ensured I received the proper care, including arranging for most of my recovery specialist to come to my home. I never felt I was left in the dark and always felt their main concern was ensuring I was feeling better. Once I recovered they fought hard to get me the best result. Hopefully I never need them again, but I would fully recommend them to anyone in an accident.

Rayven was great. My son was in a car accident and she was quick to get me the information I needed. She did everything that needed to be done and made the situation a lot less stressfull. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future.

In March of 2013 I was hit by an on coming car that totaled mine and put me in the hospital with a severe brain concussion which left me with memory loss and mental fatigue.
Gratefully I was lead to the Adam Barlow law office. Mr. Barlow, through his professionalism and expertise, convinced the insurance company to pay the amount of $115,000...a far cry from their original offer of 7,000 and what I thought possible. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mr. Barlow not only for the above reason, but because he was genuinely gracious and caring...I felt I wasn’t just a another client.

Brian made a very difficult time easier. He and his assistant were always there to answer any questions and keep me informed every step of the way. Even after the case was settled he was still there to help us whenever we needed. I appreciate it and would happily recommend him to other families who find themselves in similar situations.

Brian was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and considerate while handling my medical malpractice suit. He kept me informed of everything going on during this time and gave me answers for all my questions. He told me what steps would be followed and the possible outcomes. His perseverance resulted in a good outcome at the end without having to undergo a jury trial. I would highly recommend Brian to anyone needing an excellent attorney.

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.
Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.
When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:
- Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
- Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
- Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
- Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
- Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
- Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:
- Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
- Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
- Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
- File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
- Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
- Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.
How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
- Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
- No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.
Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:
- Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
- Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.
While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.
Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer
Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
How long will my case take?
While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.
How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
- Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
- Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
- Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:
- Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
- Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
- Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
- Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
- Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.
By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
