She is not reliable, miscommunicates & does not give people their money when case has been settled. I am not sure how I she took over my case, but I wouldn't recommend her for any injury case.

I had a paid consultation with Attorney Obiorah. It was the most expensive consultation rate for any firm I contacted regarding this Federal EEO matter. In this consultation, Attorney Obiorah was very pleasant, professional and patient. It was recommended that I amend my Federal EEO claim to add the Failure To Accommodate incidents that resulted in my permanent physical injury, then bring the case back to Attorney Obiorah.
After following Attorney Obiorah’s recommendation, I made numerous attempts telephonically and via email to contact her for an extended period. I never received a response from Attorney Obiorah. I have nothing to add positive or negative about her representation because she never represented me in my legal matter.

I hired Attorney Obiorah for my EEO discrimination case. She is a great listener, knowledgeable, caring and is very understanding and have been considerate of my issues. My case against my Agency is very complex in nature because so much has been done to me over the years; which entailed various components: Sexual Harassment, Hostile Work Environment, Discrimination due to sex and sexual orientation, Retaliation and Reprisal due to reporting security issues, wrongdoing of Management and for me initiating the EEO process. Even after filing my EEO case, the retaliation from my Agency continued to escalate. The Agency began to use my disability as a means to get back at me. I keep Attorney Obiorah abreast on all matters. I do appreciate Attorney Obiorah professionalism with this sensitive matter and her continued hardwork and dedication to my case as we continue to fight for the adequate justice. Her price to retain her services is reasonable and her staff is professional and warming. Thank you for all you do!

I retained Attorney Obiorah to initially handle my EEO claim. I find Attorney Obiorah to be knowledgeable about EEO issues regarding federal government employees. Specifically, the agency discriminated and retaliated against me on the bases of race, disability (parent and self); and violation of the Rehab Act (i.e., reasonable accommodations) . Attorney Oborah ensured all legal orders and matters were responded to within the necessary timeframe. The pleadings she submitted were impressive and relevant to the matters at hand. Given her performance with my EEO claim, I subsequently retained Attorney Obiorah to handle my Whistleblower claim with MSPB. Specifically, the Agency retaliated against me because of protected disclosures (i.e., violation of a rule, law, and regulation; and disclosure of discrimination), harassed, and reprised against me. Attorney Obiorah provided her professional opinion on all angles of my claims to allow me to make the most informed decision. It is comforting to me that Attorney Obiorah is the expert representing me in these legal matters, which can and has been extremely stressful. Attorney Obiorah's rates are reasonable and within market rates. I found the rates for other attorneys were unreasonable. I also felt as though these attorneys wanted 'slam-dunk' cases with little work or effort. Although my claims are still in litigation, I look forward to my continued attorney-client relationship with Attorney Obiorah!

Ms. Fuller is a mediocre lawyer at best. Ms. Fuller seems overworked and subsequently short on time to really listen to her client's concerns. Ms. Fuller would be more successful if she had better back office support.

From the very moment I called him with my time sensitive case, he started working to help me. He was quick, efficient, and timely, but most of all friendly and kind. You can’t find lawyers anymore who go above and beyond like he did! He worked to make sure everything was in order, and kept me informed through calls and emails since we aren’t located within the same state. His staff was courteous and kind as well. They made sure all details were forwarded back and forth between us. I chose the best of the best when choosing to hire him! Take my word for it, you won’t be sorry you hired him!

Vernon Smith did not help my son at all with his aggavated assault and battery case. Perpetrator tried to climb through my son's window threatening him, and then eventually opened and tried to come through the front door. My son stopped the perpetrator at the door and stabbed him with a knife. I guess Georgia doesn't have any self defense laws. The bias and unfair Aaron Mason gave my son 20 years with only one misdemeanor on his record.
Our friends and family in California just knew it was a white judge that sentenced him t 20 years. I told them no - it was a black judge which are worst than the white ones. They are brainwashed to lock up all their own people.
I found out after the fact that Mason sentenced my son to 20 years because the prosecutor Tasha Mosley was getting all her information from the perpetrator's mother (whos envy and jealousy of me got her other son killed). I did not know the court system goes by hearsay saying it was over money. It had nothing to do with money. I wonder what Mason kept going back there telling the jury. He wanted my son to be found guilty before the trial even started.
Mason and Mosley will be judged by the real great Judge one day. If someone tried to break into their homes with little children present I wondered what they would have done? I see now it is not about being guilty or innocent. It's about which attorney has the best acting skills.
My son is so sweet that he said he forgives the perpetrator's mother, and Mason. He has had nothing but good behavior while in that hell hole that they call prison!

Attorney Smith is a great lawyer and a good person and he knows the law! When my son got in trouble I called around for help with his case. One lawyer told me that he didn't like working with schizophrenic clients. My heart was already broken and his words hurt even more. I got in-touch with Attorney Smith. He offered me honest hope and met with me to discuss my son's case. His fee was quoted fairly and I appreciate that. He did a wonderful job working with the prosecutors office--which is not easy to do in Clayton County. He treated my son with honesty, sensitivity and respect. He kept me informed and returned my text and phone calls as soon as he could. He fought to get my son the best possible outcome, the help that he needs and to keep him out of prison. God worked a miracle through this man and I am grateful!!

It’s been 2 years and my case still isn’t settled and still hasn’t gone through litigation review. My case has been through several different case managers. Most of which have gone months without speaking to me or giving any type of updates unless I call and ask. My case was said to have been in litigation since January but now I find out that not only do I have another case manager but that my case hasn’t even gone through review with the attorney. My case will reach the statute of limitations this December. This is my first experience with an accident lawyer and it has been the worse experience in my life.

The attorney's exceptional patience stood out as they held our hand through every step of the process. Their commitment to understanding our needs and providing comprehensive guidance made the legal journey remarkably smooth. T Madden & Associates not only possesses legal expertise but also a remarkable level of compassion, making them a standout choice for anyone seeking a supportive and professional legal team.

Lawyer displays a clear and un-American affection for the traitorous Confederate states, having their flag in his office. Additionally, his highest profile case so far has been the defense of a white woman who shot and killed an unarmed black man after chasing him with her car following being asked simply to obtain his license plate. This trial resulted in a conviction.
Through both the personal views he clearly holds proudly and the failure to assist his client it is apparent that this is not the lawyer you want to rely upon.

His representation of Hannah Payne is horrendous! Unprofessional, unprepared, asks witnesses the same question over and over again to the point that it gets extremely annoying and he did it to a few witnesses. When he didn’t get the witness to give him an answer he was hoping for, he asked her if she was an expert witness.
Grasps at straws and comes up empty.

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.
