I got into a three car accident and the other persons insurance kept giving me the run around. Nefi was able to help me immensely and get me the help I needed! I didn’t have to deal with any external parties, I was able to focus on healing and recovering. He is truly the best at what he does!

Nefi was great for my case and an OUTSTANDING attorney! Nefi and his team met with us occasionally and kept great communication throughout the whole process. My case ended up going to trial and I did not know Nefi was going to be a part of it but if I could have a recording of the trial to show people how good of an attorney Nefi really is and how he destroyed the cop involved in my case and ultimately got the case dismissed before the jury even got involved then I would be sharing it all over social media! Nefi and his team are by far the best representation I have ever had and I strongly recommend them to anyone for any case!

I have got to say working with Mr. Abbott was different than others lawyers I have delt with in the past. He doesn't act flashy and he always calls me back, even though it may take him a day to call, he always did. When I came to him I wasn't getting comp like I should and we had to go to a hearing. A few weeks later I got a big check for all my back pay and mileage and reimbursement for medicine. And that was after the insurance company said I wasn't even hurt on the job! But Mr. Abbott proved it in court. This all happened just a few months ago and I'm almost ready to go back to work now. I want to thank Mr. Abbott for knowing all about my case and helping me when I needed it.

I worked with Mr. Abbott when I needed a workers compensation attorney a few years ago. Overall I had a good experience with the firm and the attorneys at the firm. Although I hope nobody ever has to experience what I went through with my employer, hiring Mr. Abbott is a good step in the right direction.

I hired Mr. Abbott and Mr. Clay from this law firm to help me with a workers compensation case. I had never hired an attorney before and they made the process very easy. I was able to focus on my life while he took care of my case. Overall the process was longer than I expected but I was happy with the winning outcome. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a workers compensation attorney.

I was in a car accident in 2019 and Wade took over my case in 2021 at the Javier Marcos law firm. Thanks to the pandemic cases took forever and a day to get things done but Wade always assured me it was going to be taken care of. Rest assured he was a genius in the court room the day of the trial. I thank Wade for standing up for me and will forever recommend his services.

I spoke with Mr. Schiffer today regarding a felony theft charge in Houston.

I called his law firm to ask about a possible civil lawsuit regarding a hopeful medical malpractice lawsuit. Mr. Schiffer walked me through the statute of limitations issues in my case and I was very grateful that he was so knowledgeable.
Even though he stated his firm would be unable to take my case he recommended I consult another attorney for peace of mind and a second opinion. I appreciate his honesty and advice.

Tim represented us in two frivolous lawsuits recently and was extremely successful. He was very honest and upfront about our options and kept us informed every step of the way. In the past we have had lawyers who's main goal was to eat up a retainer and rack up billing. His ability to manage time and expenses on our tight budget while also wining our cases handily is why I recommend him. He will look you in the eye and tell you what you need to hear as a professional, rather than what you hope and want to hear. My partner and I both will be using him for all future legal matters.

The best recommendations always seem to come from someone you know, and this was no different. I was hit from behind by a drunk driver. I contacted Attorney Joel Gordon and he began right away to take care of me, sending me for medical help and looking into the case. I didn't have to pay even a penny for my medicals tests and therapy up front. And the BEST part is that I now have a lot more money in the bank because of Mr. Gordon!

Mr. Gordon is a great attorney and very helpful, he ensured that everything was clearly understood before I signed his contract. Mr. Gordon was very profession and he kept me informed on the status of my case; he is a valuable resource. Mr. Gordon also handled my case personally and did not have a problem with me calling him with questions. I know I can trust him to handle my case and I will definitely use him again and refer him to friends.

I've hired the Lagarde Law Firm twice now (one car accident handled by Mary and one contracts case handled by Richard) and have been pleased with the level of service and results both times. The first time I hired them was for a car accident where I was injured. Mary took the time to investigate the facts of the accident, thoroughly explain my options, recommend the best course of action, and execute her plan with precision. The process was pretty painless for me as Mary took care of everything from start to finish. I was kept aware of the progress of my case at all times and the matter was resolved quickly. I was very happy with the outcome of that case and relieved that we were able to avoid the headache of trial while achieving excellent results. She even helped negotiate my medical bills down so there was more money in my pocket in the end. I would highly recommend Mary if you are in need of a skilled attorney! She and her team will treat you like family and truly care about each client.

Mary is one of the attorneys currently representing me in a suit against a lottery vendor. The suit was filed in late 2014 and is still ongoing. As a result, I have had many dealings with Mary. She's extremely prompt in returning phone calls, texts and emails. She explains the process in depth so I understand what's going on. She is organized, thorough, patient, knowledgeable and professional. No matter how our case ends, I would recommend Mary to anyone needing an attorney.

Mary is an extremely professional attorney. She knows and understands the law. She takes your case with a passion and does not stop. She is extremely thorough, detailed, meticulous, methodical, complete, diligent and I could continue to go on. You will not find a better attorney to have on your side. I was so impressed with her knowledge of the law and how she was able to help me. Her advice for my deposition allowed me to prepare and be successful for that very exhausting and grueling day. She is always available and you can reach her any time. She will spend as much time with you as needed. You will never feel rushed or that you are not the most important client she has. If I ever needed another attorney in her field I would not hesitate to contact her.

The first thing I noticed about Louis is how hard he works for his clients. He is very thorough and makes sure to explore every option for recovery. He kept me aware of everything that was going on with the case; I never had to wonder what was happening next or where the case was going. I really appreciated that he told me exactly what to expect; he was great at returning calls and keeping open communication. The best part is that my case came to a great resolution. I am confident in Louis' skills and would definitely refer him to family and friends. My experience was great and I'm sure other's will be as well.

Mr. Latimer is an experienced and astute attorney with a great reputation. He's very compassionate and practices with great integrity. Mr. Latimer was hired for legal representation for a family member confuting a criminal case. Throughout the judicial process he displayed competency, great strategy and negotiation skills. Additionally, he kept his client abreast of the case details at all times and displayed the ability to maintain confidential client information. And because of his relentless pursuit , people skills and desire to WIN cases I will continue to recommend his services to my family and friends!

Christina is the best! My son was charged in Texas after moving there with his girlfriend. He is now coming home to work on himself. He had no family there as they moved to be with her family due to having a baby. Thinking her family would be supportive, they were not and things got out of control. Thanks to Christina my son will be able to get the help he needs as she was able to get our bond lowered and get him to be able to move out of Texas and come to live with me. Going forward he will still have to fly back. But I have complete faith in her she is a mom and she understands people's feelings. She has been communicative this whole time.

I was sitting in county jail feeling like all hope was lost with the other attorney that was on my case. I was going to the law library trying to file motions with no experience in criminal law whatsoever, and getting nowhere really fast. So when my family Hired Ms. Cockrell I was skeptical because of all my previous run-ins with lawyers. From the not answering calls to generally thinking their client is automatically guilty until proven innocent, But once I spoke with her (which was a shock in its self) I instantly felt confident in her ability. The difference to me was she genuinely cares for the client and wanted to fight for my innocence and refused to submit like most defense lawyers. She was helpful, understanding, and strived for the best outcome in my case. I felt it was worth it. Now I'm at home with family and its all thanks to Ms. Cockrell.

Having worked with other attorneys in the past, I can safely say that Mr. Dutko is the cream of the crop. He is everything you would want out of an attorney. He represented me through a medical malpractice case and fought extremely hard every step of the way. Not only that, he was always available to answer my questions and did so with the utmost patience and care. Hope to never need him again but if I ever did, I wouldn't hesitate to hire him!

I highly recommend Benjamin. He's smart, quick witted, astute and will do everything in his power to help his client. He's one of the best writers I've ever met and he has helped me with in a number of cases.
He is great at looking at problems from a different angle. It's this kind of broad mindedness that makes a difference in each and every case.

Benjamin is a great lawyer! My name was forged on a Vivint account registered in my name for a contract for 3 years, Benjamin stepped into help when Vivint wouldn’t cancel the contract and I was subject to paying thousands; I was selling my home and going through a divorce at the time. He was persistent in contacting Vivint and kept me apprised of the developments every step of the way. In the end, he was successful in cancelling the policy and I’m greatly appreciative for his help. I would recommend Benjamin without hesitation. While I hope to never be in this situation again, should I find myself in a similar predicament, I will call him first.

After being abandoned by my original lawyer who was greedy for money, Linda was a TRUE answer to my prayers. She is after JUSTICE, not money. She has spent COUNTLESS hours researching my case and asking just the right questions. She has the heart of a saint; she really cares about her clients and it shows. I have emailed her outside of our visits asking for updates or just addressing concerns I have, and she answers right away. I also have been very anxious and stressed with my case as I suffer from PTSD due to it, and she is kind, gentle, and reassuring. It truly is having an angel by your side! I don't know where I'd be without her, but I'm getting JUSTICE. If you want a piece of Heaven on Earth in your corner, GET LINDA!! She will fight for YOU, WITH you!

I was recently in a Legal dispute where I had little power on my own to get things resolved. I was referred by several trusted colleagues to reach out to Kennedy Hodges and I couldn’t be more relieved that I did. Kennedy Hodges was there from start to finish keeping me informed on my case and giving me peace of mind. I’m happy to say our case was a huge success to all involved! I will gladly refer any persons reading this review right now, who’s considering using their Firm, because in my personal experience they were exceptional. I also want to give special acknowledgement to Marta Ponce who was in constant correspondence with my family and was very responsive in answering any of my family’s questions.

I located Mark through Avvo.com. I was skeptical to pay $39 for 15 min of advice. It was worth every penny! If you are looking for an attorney who listens...REALLY listens to your concern and isn't in a rush he is your guy. He not only answered my concern regarding custody but also asked me qualifying questions to ensure he knew the wording in my divorce decree to make sure he gave me correct information. I have his info now stored in my phone and won't be calling anyone else!

I was arrested for possession of marijuana. Being my second offense, with a prior arrest back in 2007 for theft, left me really uncertain of what the outcome would be.The case took a lot of me, the DA told Mark, that because I've already had record he could not dismiss it. Mark was able prove that i was stopped without probable cause using the NTB off the police cruiser, which proved my story over the officers story which lead to a dismissal. I strongly recommend Mark, if you ever caught in a jam.

I am a contractor for medical testing. A company I worked for owed me for testing I had done over a period of several months - but refused to pay. I tried over and over to work it out with them but they still refused. Finally I told them I would have to take legal action, to which they replied fine, we'll see you in court. Their attorney sent me several legal documents including a demand for the small claims court judge to drop the case. I didn't know what to do. I was afraid I would lose several months of my income. A friend of mine referred me to Byron Barclay.
Mr. Barclay was a great relief. He took the stress of dealing with the lawsuit and their intimidation away from me. We moved the case out of small claims into the big arena, and I was no longer on the defensive. Mr. Barlcay continued to press them for information and to justify their refusal to pay, all the while keeping me apprised of the situation and asking how I would like to continue. In the end, the company settled the case out of court and I was able to recover my lost wages in full. For me, the stress relief and knowing I was able to recover the much need pay has been a great blessing. I would recommend Byron Barclay to anyone in need

Mr. Barclay represented me in a suit I brought against a service provider who deceived me and mistreated me. The suit was complicated because the "injury" spanned a fifteen year time horizon. Mr. Barclay was methodical in his preparation for depositions and trial. He thought "outside the box" which lead to a recovery which exceeded my expectations. I would definitely hire Byron Barclay again to represent me.

I suffered a leg injury in February of 2019 that hospitalized me and had me on crutches for the better part of a year. I felt that the owner of the premises where I was injured created a dangerous condition. As a 34 year litigating attorney, I thought about handling my loss of earnings, pain, suffering, and medical bills by myself. Then I remembered the old saying that an attorney who represents himself has a fool for a client. So without a moment's hesitation, my wife and I reached out to Rebecca Todd and Simmons and Fletcher to represent us. It was the best decision we ever made. They jumped right on our case and sent investigators out very quickly. They ordered my medical bills very promptly. They effectively and compassionately interviewed my wife and me in order to fully understand the impact that this injury had on our lives. They negotiated skillfully with the defendant's insurance adjusters.
Because of the diligence and expertise of Rebecca Todd and Simmons and Fletcher, our legal matter was concluded without the necessity for litigation with a result that my wife and I were very pleased with. Throughout the representation, we were very impressed with their regular communication letting us know where things stood.

I was in an automobile accident in which I was hit from behind. I called the liable party’s insurance company to start my claim immediately, but knew based on the initial contact with them that they did not have my best interest in mind. I contacted Simmons and Fletcher where Rebecca Todd immediately began working on my case. She arranged billing agreements with medical providers which allowed me to be treated immediately and consistently without having to come out of pocket while waiting for the insurance company to pay out. The whole process seemed very daunting at first, but Rebecca explained everything that was going on in a way that was easy to understand. Furthermore, she assisted in getting the diminished value of my car reimbursed to me, which is something I had no idea about prior to her help.
I would recommend hiring Rebecca to anyone who is dealing with a personal injury dispute. She truly has her client’s best interest in mind and works tirelessly to make sure they have the best outcome when resolving a case.

I had consulted with Mr. Rubenstein, regarding my case against my employer, related to unpaid commissions. Mr. Rubenstein was an excellent communicator, was caring and took time to learn about my case and my concerns. Although Mr. Rubenstein was not able to assist me with my case, he took the time to personally introduce me to an associate of his, who, managed to successfully negotiate my case on my behalf. Mr Rubenstein treated me with dignity and respect, and was extremely knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend him.

Andy is an attorney that I trust in his profession & as my friend I would tell anyone that wants an attorney that will do his utmost to get you what you deserve and no stone will go unturned because he is about ensuring that his clients what they deserve. I am so pleased that I had him in my corner because if it were not for him I would not be here today. The hospital said after my almost a year in a coma that the plug should be pulled on me because I was going to be a vegetable, now I will say that I am not 100% but I am definitely not a vegetable after 20 surgeries which included replacements that I have had to have done. This wonderful young talented attorney that I also call my friend for life did not and would not allow them to be judge jury and executioner and that I why I am here and can share this with you.

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.
