This was my first time working with a lawyer and I was very nervous because I've heard horror stories from friends. But Drew was an absolute pleasure to work with! He and his team took the load off while I was recovering from two surgeries due to an accident. Knowing that my case was being handled in a processional and timely manner was incredibly comforting during a difficult time. I don't have not a single complaint about him or his team. If I could give 10 stars, I would.

I was referred to David through a friend. Although he was unable to take my case, he gave me the time to go through the whole situation and explained why it was not right for him. He told me what I should be looking for and he referred me to another medical mal practice attorney who was also unable to take my case. David was wonderful to speak with and knows his stuff. He guided me to look for certain attributes in law firms and that was very helpful. Last Friday I got an email from an attorney’s office asking if I would be willing to speak with them. They got my name and overview of my case from David. Once he referred me back in July, I didn’t think I would be on his radar as he is very busy, talks with lots of people daily along with everything else he does as the founding member of his firm. I thought he did all he could do, but I was wrong. I signed with them yesterday. If it weren’t for David, I would still be looking for an attorney. David-you are my hero. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Wishing you all the best always.

Speaking with David was probably the best experience I have ever had with an attorney. He met the perfect balance between listening to me, taking in everything I had to say, evaluating the situation, and telling me the truth and what expectations were realistic for my case. I find that more valuable than any other interaction with an attorney.

Vincent Miller is a highly competent lawyer who was able to get to the bottom of the case very quickly and put my opposition in a position of needing to settle instead of going to court the monies they owed me. His fee was reasonable and I was very glad Vincent was in my corner. He is also very personable and easy to work with.

This was my first accident, so the entire process was unfamiliar to me. Brett did an outstanding job guiding me through it, making sure I received the compensation I deserved as the victim. I appreciated his determination to ensure a successful outcome for my case. I also want to thank Josh, who has a calm and soothing presence—exactly what I needed to navigate the litigation process, especially since I suffer from anxiety as a result of the accident. I highly recommend Brett and his team for personal injury cases. As long as you maintain open communication with him and follow his instructions, you're sure to win!

I was in an automobile accident a few years ago and I was extremely pleased with the service I received from Metnick Levy & Dyson's law firm. The staff was phenomenal and the attorneys were great! I was kept abreast of any new updates throughout my case. I never felt like the office didn't care about my case. Mr. Dyson was honest with me from the time my file was transferred to him. He would ask me if I had any questions or concerns regarding my case. My calls were always answered or returned in a timely manner. Mr. Dyson took the time to listen and answer my questions. Also, I was always contacted anytime defense counsel presented an offer. My case settled and I was pleased with the settlement. He is a highly competent attorney and I would seek the services of his firm again. I couldn't have chosen a better law firm!

Mr. Dyson represented me and was a horrible attorney. He was verbally abusive toward me, lied and boasted he would get me a large settlement but did not. He blamed it on me saying my case wasn’t any good after representing me for more than 2 years. He sent me to doctors that inflated my costs and were a joke. He made me pay for a mediation to sit for hours to get the same same settlement I did. I basically paid for him to have lunch. He added extra costs to a case that he took willingly which he thought was no good. Further his fees were more than what I received for my settlement. There are many other honest attorneys to hire that aren’t just out for money and treat people like this. I am more upset that I was lied to and treated poorly than my settlement.

The lawyers at this firm are a disgrace to the practice of law. They prey on the vulnerable and those people that are especially in need of legal help. One of the posts indicates exactly what happened which is they changed lawyers on the case but they do it so that they can bill more hours so they take a bigger cut of the settlement. They keep giving you the runaround when the case is finally settled only to learn is they are increasing there portion with every passing billable hour. The various depts such as the reductions dept.is there to simply deflect and be the middleman in between you and the lawyer. They are a bunch of crooks in suits, especially Mr. Kanner because from the beginning he was very pleasant but that's just an act to get you to sign the contract than its a no show no callback and the shuffle game starts. They indicated one amount after there 40% cut but they know you need money so they get a predatory lender that they work with (I'm sure they get a kickback) to lend you money at a substantial intrest rate and what they say is that out of the settlement they will pay those that are owed what they don't say is that they are receiving favorable reductions that they themselves do not pass along to the victim but instead pocket the difference in trumped up charges. All the while they pressure you to get more and more surgeries so that they can bill more and claim more but all there are really doing is increasing there CUT! Please DO NOT use these lawyers they are not the people you want looking after your best interest, all they want is money. My mother is the unfortunate victim of this alleged wrongdoing but I have been with her for the extent of the suit, 3 years it took for the settlement and then came the excuses as to why she hasn't received her portion of the settlement which has been reduced to less than 20% of what was settled for with Coca Cola. She was urged to take another loan even though the firm received the funds from Coca Cola over 4 months ago. There just very unethical and untrustworthy. Please don't hire any of these lawyers from this firm you will regret it for the rest of your life.

Every time I call for information it's "4-6 weeks".. they have told me 4-6 weeks 3x during the duration of my case. they aren't very personable either, they seem to have an attitude every time I call . Not to mention I spoke to 3 different people during the case and not the actual lawyer. They keep you in the dark, don't explain things, tell you what they think you want to hear. Terrible service and TERRIBLE overall experience with them. Would not recommend them.

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:

  1. What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award.
  3. 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.
  4. How often do you take cases to trial?
    Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
