My attorney Mr. Derrick Johnson is the best lawyer in the state. I don’t know where I would be without his help on my personal injury case last year. He certainly was a great help to me and updated me regularly with new information. I will be using his services again. Thanks

Charged more than the normal fee yet there wasn’t anything complicated. Lacked follow up and communication. I was always reaching out for updates. Case took almost two years and never heard anything back regarding the case just a letter. Met multiple times and really nice but I think he takes on morecases than he can handle. He came highly recommended.

I was wrongfully accused of 12 counts of 1st degree felonies and 1 misdemeanor. David and his WONDERFUL team were hired I believe a week after being incarcerated I retained him to represent me. He fought time and time again to get me out of jail against the crooked county I was in but they always seemed to find a way to set David back but he NEVER gave up. After about 10 months we finally were about to go through trial but go figure, the DA was not ready still and then David demanded that I be let out on at least bond and the judge granted me a signature bond with an ankle monitor on all charges. That’s just the first small battle won. In the midst of all this I had a juvenile case come about regarding custody of my children and his team took that case load on as well but we will come back to that in a moment. From the time of retaining him to the day I was released on bond to the weeks to days before trial they stayed in contact with me and went over plans and everything with me almost every single week on how we need to go through this trial what to expect what not to expect the whole 10 yards. Just a reminder, they’re planning for this trial and also having to plan and go through the juvenile case as well so I can only imagine how exhausted they are at this point. So trial comes which took two weeks maybe even two weeks and a couple days but we were there from 8:30 in the morning until those lights shut off most days and they STILL met with me every single day to go over new angles to go at this whole thing. We get through all that and now we get to the verdict and all they’re hard work paid off. Not guilty! Second battle won! Then we get to just the juvenile case and that took some time with getting all the scheduling to match up with EVERYBODY involved but here we are almost 3 years from the start of this thing and we got my babies home!!!!! We’re not quite through the mud yet but I’ve got 1000% confidence in them to bring this thing to a happy ending. I know this has been a lot but just these few words is not even close to enough to show or express how amazing David and his entire staff are. I would hire David again and again for anything else in life as long as he is still a lawyer.

Ron Smith was professional and provided excellent legal representation. When my case was settled, the paperwork was completed electronically. In addition, Sandy was wonderful in keeping me up to date on my case. If I need an attorney in the future, I will be going to Ron Smith.

Ron not only presented a fantastic case for me, he carried himself and represented the law superbly. Seven day civil jury trial, a unanimous decision in my favor in an hour and 45 minutes due to Ron's presentation
of my case. A pleasure to work with.

Ron Smith is an excellent attorney. My case was not the usual case but he handled it professionally and kept us totally in the loop. We had to go mediation and he was an great asset through the whole situation. I felt he helped us make the best decision concerning the case. I guess I can sum it up to say we felt totally comfortable with Ron representing us through the whole ordeal. Hopefully I don't need an attorney again but if so I will call Ron.

Rhonda Bender Kreuziger did an excellent job at handling a most difficult legal case that took many unexpected turns. She excels in researching the law as it applies to the individual case and in explaining the legal process to clients with no legal background. She also did an excellent job in representing our company in several courtroom settings and in helping us navigate through the legal system to get the desired results. Rhonda Bender Kreuziger is diligent and focused and even worked all night on one occasion to prepare for an emergency court hearing. I would highly recommend her services.

I have had the pleasure of working with Attorney Rhonda Kreuziger in her handling of several of my family legal issues. Let me state clearly, that Rhonda places your mind at ease when dealing with legal issues. She's very calm and methodical when reviewing your case, and she makes sure that your legal matter is her primary concern during her consultation with you. As a side note, let me reveal that Rhonda has resolved satisfactorily every single family legal issue that we presented to her. As a member of the Military, integrity and competence are two important traits that I seek in hiring an attorney. I can state without hesitation that Rhonda exhibits both of these traits. Finally, don’t just take my words, call her for consultation, and you will witness the experience for yourself.

Attorney Derek Wright!! This man is a crook and a liar! He abandoned my son's case & he's only been hired for 3 months and refuses to answer any calls or texts to explain why he thinks he's going to take our money & abandon my son's case! He never showed up for court on time or visited my son, he made promise after promise & assured us he would fight for my son. He used a juvenile excuse saying me the mom called & texted too much about the case.. how else was the family supposed to get updates on the case because he never called or did the job he was paid for!! I wish I had seen the negative reviews on "FindLaw" of other clients complaining about how incompetent he is before we hired this clown or even the complaint with the board that shows his history of being a liar!! Do not hire this wannabe Johnny Cochran because he doesn't have the experience to do the job....if you do hire him you'll regret it, save yourself the trouble! He's a hypocrite

I see so many comments about Incompetent, Thief, Unreliable ect… Now!! I have known Derek for over 20 years and have been a very reliable and responsible. I have called him myself, and it will be a minute before he returns my call, but he do return them. He is a very busy man because he comes highly recommend. Y’all please let’s be fare and not bash him until he prove himself incapable of being a great Attorney for your team. I promise if y’all be fare, give him time. You will win your case. This is what I experienced with him. I have use his services twice and never been disappointed. Let’s be fare guys!!!

Founders Legal has changed the game of small business startup assistance, and has been the greatest asset for my company, and my sanity, during my business entity's beginnings. It is nearly impossible, without double business doctorates, to properly start a company today by yourself and be able to accurately check all the boxes required by the government. From business formation to trademarking, website policies to NDAs, the folks at Founders Legal have the experts to handle your worries. I could not, and would not, attempt to become an entrepreneur again without Founders Legal on my side. Protect yourself and your company! Major Kudos to Zach and Kennington.

As a long time client of Founders Legal, I feel at home knowing that this office actually cares about me and my business. The best word to describe this team is, 'trust'. I consider Founders Legal an anomaly in the legal space, where trust is hard to find. The generosity and personal one-on-one care that this team has delivered to me has made my IP challenges, a lot less challenging. Zach has pushed through many difficult projects for my business, too many to list and too much history to get into in one google review. Yuri is always available and generous with his time and his team. There are many more names on the list, but to keep things short, I foresee a lot more IP acquisition for my business using the Founders Legal team.

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.
