What a waste of time , this place is absolutely a joke but not funny, over a year since my accident at speedway , literally no communication from Michelle Teran, I called once a month and only spoke to her twice, now they dropped my claim, said I wasn't worth it basically if we had to file suit, Michelle said she worked my claim and not going to be compensated for the time, what I believe is they got paid from the other insurance company to not proceed with my case, don't waste your time with this law firm, stay away. Absolutely no communication, very unhappy, will be proceeding this claim either my self or with another hopefully qualified law firm.

Anyone who has a similar initial and ongoing positive experience would highly likely work with him going forward. Thank you Mr. Sollmann and Jon

I would recommend Mr. Cope to family and friends without hesitation. My perception, he honestly cares about you and your situation. You are not just a case number. Don't hesitate to make an appointment and let Mr.Cope clarify your options and the best course of action so you can make an informed decision. The above scenario is exactly what transpired during my first meeting with no pressure from Mr. Cope for a quick decision to do anything. I do not have the ability to articulate the gratitude for the results Mr. Cope achieved. He resolved my situation with a negotiated settlement, not bankruptcy and reduced my total financial obligation thousands of dollars. Thank you again Russ, my wife and I appreciate your efforts.

He is whip-smart, articulate, and he constantly stays in touch with you. If you are ever in need of a great attorney during this painstaking process, you will be doing yourself a great disservice if you do not reach out to Matt.

I paid $500 one time consultation fee on 13th of September, and they received my case on 16th of Sep. However, one month has passed, until now I have not heard back from the lawyer ! It’s seems like I have been totally ignored. I have sent emails to paralegal asking about the situation. She just say the lawyer will contact you soon, then another 2 weeks past, still nothing. I don’t know if I am the only one facing this issue or not . Seems like he has many good reviews and that’s why I choose him. But I got disappointed seriously.

I hired Loveleen for two cases. She took her entire fees in advance, including a Cashier's check for court filing fees and it's been over 2 years and she has not done a thing. Won't return calls, and let alone returning the money, she won't even return the original documents I handed her. Aside from the family case, she also claims she's an immigration lawyer. She has no clue about immigration issues. Even 1 Star is one too many.. too bad there is no option for 0 or Negative stars. Stay away from this crook. She is a disgrace to the law profession.

I was charged with a DUI offense. Loveleen walked it, had me driving privileges the first appearance, although I refused to blow, and had my case dismissed in two appearances. When she walks in the court room, everyone knows who she is. She gets whatever you need done, and if she can't, she'll tell you.

Chris Alexander was referred to me by a close friend. Chris is well versed in legal custody. He challenged me to understand that custody is NOT a power play between the wills of parents nor is it tolerated by the courts, but that it’s about knowing what you want to see happen and be able to explain & prove why it would foremost be in the best interest of my son. He also taught me that I must trust him to do his job which meant my hyper-vigilance was of no assistance to me nor how he needed to prepare for my custody case. My lack of knowledge of the law was the reason for my anxiety and I am sure overwhelming to my attorney. Chris never let that get to him nor in the way of executing the various phases of my case. At one point through our journey during one of my anxiety moments, he sat me down and said “maybe I am not the attorney for you”. Well, I considered it but could not find legitimate reasons to dismiss him. This challenged me to do a better job at trustIng him to do his job and that is what I did. It was important to the both of us to be on the same page as well as trust him to do his job well. I should have wrote this review awhile ago to share what an amazing family law attorney Chris was for me. Thank you Chris for challenging me to understand that not returning every call was not a sign of you not doing your job. The result of your representation for my custody case was me being awarded FULL Custody and Residential parent! Chris, You should drop the mic now! I should at least give you that or you should say “Kim, I told you so!”

On October the 12,2022 Attorney Kinman called me and told me he and Veterans Affairs Attorney had reached an agreement that I would receive an extra schedule award and that I should hear something within 30 days. I asked Attorney Kinman to send me a copy of their agreement,but I never heard or received anything from him or his associates after repeated phone calls. Around January the second of 2023 I received a letter from the Veteran Affairs. stating claim denied. I have no written evidence of what was said in the agreement to support what he told me.I feel cheated and deceived because Attorney Kinman did not fight for me and refused to contact me to this day. Will someone please help me find justice?

Mike has helped my family and myself in many different situations over the years. From helping with some unfortunate situations to my divorce and custody battle, and everywhere in between, I would never imagine having someone else represent myself, my family, or my friends. He has never hesitated to be there at all hours of the day whenever called upon. He is very understanding and upfront about everything. In the fight for my kids and during my divorce, one of the hardest times of my life, Mike always did above and beyond what I expected anyone to help fight for us. Over the last 15 years I have never once recommended someone over him when it comes to anything in the legal field and I will continue to recommend him further to anyone in need.

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:

  1. What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award.
  3. 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.
  4. How often do you take cases to trial?
    Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
