Jason Pearl has been a go to several times for injury claims. Unfortunately, myself and my family have been prone to a long line of accidents. Including one that nearly took my life by a drunk driver. I have never dealt with someone who is more compassionate about his clients then him. He listens to his clients instead of talking over them and always puts the ball in their court and gives them the final say. He advises his clients honestly of all possible outcome based on all possible decisions. The one time I didn’t use him (at my wife’s insistence) it turned into a three ring circus and I had to do the attorney’s job for them. His office staff is just as phenomenal as he is. If you are injured in any way I strongly suggest you speak with Jason first. He won’t necessarily paint you a rosy picture but will give you honest advice which is highly unusual this day and age. Thank you again Jason for all you’ve done

Working with Mr. Ginnis was a pleasure. Mr. Ginnis was extremely knowledgeable and thorough in explaining all the processes that would take place. Mr. Ginnis and his team were extremely tentative and compassionate to all of my needs and always responded in a timely manner to any issue that had surfaced, putting my concerns at ease with their professionalism. If ever I need legal council or representation in the future, Mr. Ginnis and his team will be the first and only phone call I will be making.

I was in a brutal accident in Fort Lauderdale, and I was really afraid of medical bills and not being able to work for many days. Adam was referred to me as a bicycle accident attorney from a friend of mine. I wasn't aware that someone specializes in that first of all. Then I learned that he was also a member of Million Dollar Advocates Forum which is based on achieving rewards/claims for plaintiffs in cases. Well I was able to settle with the defendant for a'lot of money and rehabilitate my health. I owe Adam my life.

I hired Attorney Harrison for a personal injury case. Throughout the entire process, Attorney Harrison kept me informed and eased the anxiety that often came with the financial, physical, and emotional burden of a car accident. She was always available for questions, and I never felt she was too "busy" explain a process or advise me on the next steps. The settlement took about a year (with COVID-19 being a prominent reason), but there was never a time I felt my case was not given priority. Even after the case settled, Attorney Harrison extended her help for future services, and I would 100% recommend her for my friends and family.

I was in a terrible accident with my daughter. Ms. Billing went out of her way to personally walking me through the case until it went to court and was finalized. In addition, she personally supported my daughter and I as we faced several deaths in our family while the case was pending. Her expertise in personal injury law will be an asset to any client who hires her. I am grateful to her that my daughter has a bright future.

As a fellow lawyer, I can honestly say that Leila is a spectacular attorney! She assisted me in a very difficult car accident case where I was the victim of a hit and run driver. She fought for me until the end and completely turned my case around. She is hard-working, dedicated, and takes great initiative. I highly recommend her!

Eric Kay was recommended to me for an unfortunate situation this past December 2014. Although my situation had put me in such a high degree of anxiety Mr. Kays calm demeanor and honesty really put me at ease. Mr. Kay did not provide me with any false hope regarding the outcome of my case, but was supportive, and available throughout. I highly recommend Mr. Kay.

Eric was recommended to me from a close friend of mine who lives in Miami, FL. I hired Eric for a criminal case that I was accused of in Ft. Lauderdale. Not only did Eric get the case dismissed after filing a Motion to Suppress, but he also left a lasting impression on me for life. Watching Eric disscet the prosecution's claim(s) along with leaving their key witness speachless on the stand after questioning was priceless. It was the equivilant of watching Michelangleo paint the Sistine Chapel. We were up against one of the toughest judges in South Florida, and Eric was able to get it dissmissed all through his courtroom mastery. Eric is a diligent, hard working, professional, who is well known in the Broward and Miami Dade political arena. I would not hesitate in the slighest to use Eric's expert servies if I needed a lawyer again. In fact Eric is working on a personal injury case for a friend of mine. Whatever your legal needs may be please contact Eric as you will be in great hands! I'm even more impressed that Eric calls me to this day just to see how I am doing. Those client relations are hard to find in an attorney now a days. Do not hestitate to call Eric for all your legal matters. You will not be dissappointed. I speak from experience! Good Luck.

I highly recommend Mr. Salomon. Not only did he vacate my son's intricate possession case- intertwined with significant immigration consequences- he also won the case, with unparalleled lawyering; making the police and state prosecutors involved look amateurish at best . He was always in contact with us , and in addition, is very knowledgeable with great litigating acumen. I recommend him without reservation.

I was in a terrible car crash back in 2015. Confused and scared, I found Mr. Abers' office phone number. I called the phone number and was immediately comforted by the phenomenal staff. Mr. Abers is a wonderful attorney who not only helped me through a difficult emotional time, but also gave me great legal advice. Mr. Abers was hired to represent me and he did a better job at closing my case than I could have ever hoped for. His staff will exceed your expectations. If you ever need help call his office and ask for Janet. I would recommend him to any person who needs legal representation.

Florida Litigation Law Firm had done some basic work for me in the past but I had an unforeseen emergency that required me to respond quickly to some specific requirements. David and his team seemed to drop everything and give me amazing attention, they not only addressed the contract but have taken the time over the last 2 years to understand my specific business and its needs. They were able to help me negotiate an even better deal than I had hoped for. They always have my best interests in mind, not just billing me for hours. Many times they have told me where I can get information for free. They are great partners.

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.
