Mrs. Cruz helped me receive my documentation needed to be able to work legally in this country. She responded to my emails immediately and kept me informed along the way of how the process was going. Even after receiving payment for her legal services she still stayed in contact with me regarding future dates with immigration. It is rare to find a lawyer that will take that extra step to help and Mrs. Cruz takes that step. She offered guidance over what was expected at those meetings and answered any question I had. To summarize she is knowledgeable, trustworthy, honest, and the one lawyer I would recommend.

I went to Lee Thweatt with my personal injury case that had been turned down by some other lawyers. Unlike the others, he believed in me and accepted the case. I was not familiar with the legal system, so he explained everything to me very patiently and walked me through the whole process. I understood that he was a kind and patient person from the very beginning, but during the deposition I realized that he was a very thorough lawyer, someone I was glad to have on my side. We concluded my case today and I am very satisfied with the outcome. I am very grateful to Lee for all his efforts and for being patient with all my questions over the past few months. I must give my thanks to Irene who worked closely on my case with Lee and kept me updated with all the proceedings. It has been a very pleasant experience working with them. They are good, kind and honest people who actually seem to care about their clients. Highly recommended!

Mr. Alworth is an extremely talented lawyer, he's not a lawyer that talked to me regularly but when it was my turn, he was tunnel visioned on getting as much money as possible, and kicked butt at mediation! amazing!!! No one would even take my case and he turned my case into gold. Highly recommended.

Adame Garza is the best law firm in the world. They truly care about their clients and are so professional and their associates are amazing. My accident was horrific and right before the pandemic. Even then they got me the attention and help I needed. When I called or emailed them they replied immediately. I mostly dealt with Johnny Garza or Lindsey in the office. The doctors they recommended were fantastic and the surgeries were so successful. Without Adame Garza I would not have any quality of life whatsoever. They are kind and attentive and will fight for you like a mother tiger fighting for her cub. I just cannot say enough nice things about the firm. Even my family members comment on how good they were to me. I love you Johnny and Lindsey and will be grateful to you for the rest of my life. God bless you both!

Johnny was always very helpful with my case. I was rear-ended on the freeway at over 100 mph. I received injury to my back and right leg that over the years resulted in terrific sciatic pain. The problem became exacerbated when my own insurance company refused to total my obviously "totaled" car and refused to pay my policy limits. Up until then, I thought I had a very good insurance company, but I quickly realized that I did not. I had full collision insurance coverage including high limits of “under insured motorist” coverage, but my insurance company refused to pay them as expected. It was a long process as most car injury cases are, but had it not been for Johnny who stayed on my insurance company to pay their injured motorist as they should have in the first place, I would not have come out ahead. He is that good and if you are looking for an intelligent, and excellent lawyer, call his office. You won’t be disappointed.

I have been dealing with Mr. May for years. He is an excellent attorney. He is always available for any questions or concerns and his staff is always so friendly and kind.

He really knows how to deal with the insurance companies to get you the most compensation for your injuries. I would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat.

I was introduced to this attorney during the middle of an ongoing criminal case that was heading in the worst imaginable direction possible. Once I hired this attorney, he took the time to explain the legal aspect of my case and broke down everything to where I was able to understand. Mr. Ezeoke kept me fully updated throughout my entire case. At the time Mr. Ezeoke took my case, I was facing 5 years of federal prison time. Needless to say, I am here writing this review from the comfort of my own home. Mr. Ezeoke had my case dismissed and all charges dropped. He made the impossible look so easy. He was unafraid of the unjust court system and fought for my case as if it were something personal to him.
His law firm has now become great family to all my family and friends.

Once I brought my case to atty. Alphonsus Ezeoke, I knew right then I had chosen the right person to help with my criminal case. This attorney took the time to explain to me the details of my case, which most attorneys have failed to do. He allowed me to work as apart of my case so I would understand all legal aspects dealing with my case. This attorney saved my life, I went from a possible 5 year sentence to all charges dropped. Mr. Ezeoke did not accept any other answer from the Courthouse, because he believed in me.
I recommend this attorney to anyone that is in need of a criminal lawyer or if you need a lawyer that will litigate and truly fight for you.

Brian has represented us. He is without question superb. We have referred a number of people to him over the years and get nothing but thanks from them. He doesn't have the p.r. machine a lot of other personal injury lawyers hire...but he doesn't need them either as far as I know.

After my accident, I inquired to a few lawyers about my case. Because I was not injured in the accident and the damages I was seeking were minimal, I didn't receive a response from the attorneys I approached. A family member put me in touch with Mr. Carwile. He listened to the facts of my accident and knew that I was I wrongfully denied by the insurance company. In a very short time, he had the insurance company backpedaling and was able to negotiate a settlement after I was initially denied. I have no doubt that he shows that same determination and commitment to all of his clients. I would HIGHLY recommend Mr. Carwile for any personal injury needs!

Mr. Daniels did an excellent job in handling my case, by presenting me with clear and understandable information and facts. He offered me alternatives to consider if they became necessary to pursue, and
acted in a very accountable and responsible manner.
His Fee structure was also very reasonable. After having had multiple problems with prior Attorney's, who did not return calls in a timely manner, or who generally treated me as a second class Citizen, I found Mr. Daniels to be a breath of fresh air.

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.
