Mr. James Spokes is a criminal lawyer who deserves a five-star rating. He is very well versed in defending defendants against criminal charges. He read my entire file carefully and answered my questions with great patience, I appreciate him from the bottom of my heart, his serious, responsible and professional attitude made me feel at ease and his prices were very reasonable.
God bless and pray for all who read this review, as I know you feel the same way I do. He is certainly someone who fought for me, even though there are not many people who are this down to earth and do real work. If you happen to feel desperate, or in deep trouble - don't waste any more time calling other lawyers. Make this your first and last call, and I can assure you that you will not regret it.

Brandt is definitely one of the best lawyers there is! He’s so professional, very knowledgeable, transparent, & truly caring! He goes above & beyond for his clients. He took great care of myself & my kids. If I had to choose another attorney, it would most definitely be Schmolke Law Firm without a DOUBT! Brandt truly cares about his clients & their well-being. & I want to say thanks again for everything he’s did for my family, even the birthday cards in the mail. My family & I are forgetful grateful for Brandt. If you’re looking for a great attorney, don’t look any further! He’s definitely the man with the plan!

Highly recommend lawyer. Brandt was recommended to me by a family member of mine. I was involved in a car accident and unfortunately I had no insurance for my vehicle, so because of that the other party who crashed into my car insurance company did not have to cover the damage or medical expenses. It’s called (PAY TO PLAY).
I believed that it was nothing I could do about it and I was just going to have to take the loss but Brandt assured me that he will handle it and for sure he did. Not only did he help with and got a settlement for the case, me believing that nothing would be able to be do about I was a good bit difficult to get in contact with and slow with responding to him but he was patient, respectful, nice consistent, considerate, everything you would picture a great lawyer to be. He was recommended to me, I would recommend him to you and I know for sure once you begin to do business with him, you’ll be recommending him to.

I'm from Central Louisiana and had a hard case to deal with, I had already been through 2 other Attorneys and found Rob by the skin if my teeth. Rob took on my nightmare for me and gave me and my family a new life. He worked very hard even in times when we thought it couldnt get worse, he pulled it through. Rob and his Assistant Sinarta kept me up to date, and when I needed and answer or anything they helped me out! All I can say is Awesome Job! And thanks for making me feel as we came first with all our needs. Ive already started recommending you guys to everyone I know... and we've added you to our Christmas List

I would recommend Mr Joubert to anyone. I was 20 years old when I had my first car accident. He was so professional and caring. He was empathetic to my case and took great care of me. This was a big ordeal in my life and he respected my request to have to deal with as little as possible. He took care of everything. I have sent friends and family to him and will continue to do so. He is well educated in his profession. Johnny is the only lawyer I will ever turn to.

I tried to think of a few words to describe Mr. Chris Day and this is what I came up with. He was very helpful in a personal injury case that involved my mother. He took his time to carefully review the case and offer all the help he could. He exceeded my expectations. It could not have been a better attorney for our family. Mr. Day is one of the best. You will not be disappointed by this attorney. I know I wasn't.

I was referred to Fisher Injury Lawyers by a friend. I was previously connected with a larger firm whom I felt was very distant, not personal, and attentive to my concerns. When I met Chris Day, he was very open and sensitive to my concerns. Chris is a very pleasant, knowledgeable, and respectful young man. I always felt he was very honest, sensitive, and responsive to my concerns. There were times I was not so pleasant to him but he remained patient and respectful to me. I really appreciate Fisher injury Lawyers for all that they do. I will always recommend them to others.

We unfortunately had a need for an attorney. After LOTS of research and talking with friends and relatives, we settled on Kevin Kleinpeter because of the several very positive recommendations that his former clients gave.
Kevin's initial consultation was very detailed with Kevin making sure we understood everything as he covered it.
During the process of our litigation, Kevin kept us informed at all times, using phone calls, texts, emails and meetings when necessary. We were very pleased with the outcome of our case and with the absolutely professional and helpful service provided by Kevin. We would HEARTILY recommend Kevin to anyone needing an attorney.

Mr Murrell assisted us with a name change for my grandchild, who has been estranged from her father for many years. The father was very reluctant to allow her name to be changed from his last name, but Mr Murrell ultimately gained his permission.
Mr Murrell handled this very emotional situation quickly and professionally. We will use him again soon for estate planning, and we highly recommend him to relatives and friends.

It is very difficult for me to write a review for Mr. Aub Ward in just a few sentences. My entire family was traumatized by my car accident. My entire family had to have additional TLC. I had to have multiple, serious surgeries. Aub did not just call to see how I was doing, he also came to see me in the hospital to check on me. My case lasted for a couple of years. Aub looked at the case like it was a brand new case every single day. Aub was so thorough, knowledgeable, and resourceful that I knew I had been put in the right hands. Aub put countless hours into my case. He consulted specialist all over the country to make sure that he was prepared for anything that the defense could possibly be brought up in my case. Aub went as far as to hire a consultant and several other lawyers for a retreat to see where they may be holes or cracks in my case so that he would be prepared for that. This retreat lasted the entire day. The lawyers involved in the retreat we're not only acting as lawyers to make sure that all the details and factual information in my case was correct, but the lawyers also looked at it from a juror's point of view. This retreat helped my case tremendously. There are not enough words that I can use to express how diligently Aub worked on my case. He never treated me as just another face or just another client. He looked at me as a traumatized victim that needed someone to truly help them. I could not have asked for a better lawyer than Aub Ward. When my husband and I had those first initial meetings with Aub; he did not sugarcoat any of the details of my case. Aub told me what he thought my case was worth and that was the amount that I received. Aub still contacts me to this day to check on me and to make sure that my family and I are doing OK. He is a diligent lawyer, but he also sees a face and a family with each case that he works. Aub is someone that I will stay in contact with for many, many years to come. I trust him, I just his loyalty, I trust his knowledge, and I trust that he will give every case what it takes to make sure that each client receives the best care possible. I am very certain that had I not used Aub in my case, I would not have been awarded the amount that I received. If you want someone that is going to work their fingers to the bone and to also give you the most attention possible, then Aub Ward is your man.

Michelle can be a pitbull...don't let her cute looks fool you. She knows the Law and enforces it for her clients. After I was on Comp for a year, I hired her, because I was getting ALL kinds of weird problems from my employers. I was an RN that was VERY valuable to the hospital, pre-injury, but after I injured myself, picking a patient off the floor and couldn't perform my same job, b/c I ended up having back surgery. Now, the story changed....I was as worthless to my employer, as much as I had been valuable to them in the past. I was totally exhausted from fighting with them, when Michelle came to my rescue. After hiring her, all I heard was how lucky I was to have her, and how knowledgable she is about Worker's comp. I had to experience her, first hand, to be amazed at how profficient she is. She was ALWAYS professional, dedicated, responsive to my needs and had my best interest at heart. There isn't anything that I could say negative about her. I also developed some serious other health problems during this time, and really did not have the energy to fight with my employer for every little thing. All I can say is THANK GOD, FOR PUTTING MICHELLE SORRELLS in my life at that point in time. She is a good and caring person. It is not ALL about making money. Thanks to you Michelle!!!

I first consulted with Charlotte after being highly recommended to her by a family member who is also an attorney. After just one meeting with her, I felt confident that I could put my full trust in her. She helped me to understand all of my rights under the law in terms that were easily understandable in order to assure that I was always clear about every step of the legal proceedings. She spent a great amount of time working on even the smallest details of my case. Preparation is definitely not her weakness. When the opposing counsel approached her with settlement options, she was more than ethical and professional concerning mediation.

"Chip" is driven by his Christian-based compassion to help people who have been wrongfully hurt. He works like a dog to obtain ALL the ammunition, that could ever possibly exist, needed to win your case for you - you won't be seeing him on the cocktail scene, working too much... No person could be more demanding of him than he is of himself, he is a perfectionist. I've had so many bad experiences with other attorneys, but Chip has wrangled a couple of absurdly complicated cases to win them for me. Chip is the guy who shoulders your burdens all the way. He always returns calls FAST - this was a futile and maddening game with my other attorneys. Your only disappointment in him may be that he has heard all (currently existing) Boudreaux/Thibodeaux jokes - and you are sure to hear a few! Love my attorney.

Was extremely worried and scared the entire time. I have two young children and really needed some help because my ex-husband hired a lawyer, left me with the kids and all these bills and I didnt know what to do. It felt really good when we left court and everything he told me was going to happen, happened. I would definitely recommend him if you are in need of a family lawyer. He was a pleasure to work with, and didnt make me feel uncomfortable like those other lawyers when i had to share intimate details about my family situation.

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.
