Very impressed with the hard work and dedication of Seth at Liberty Law Group! After he has helped out a few friends, I’ve learned that he actually spends the time understanding his clients goals and educates them on what their options are to achieve these goals! In the end, he has proved himself to be an attorney that refuses to back down when your justice is on the line. If you are looking for a down to earth attorney who isn’t scared to take things to a trial he is absolutely your guy!!!

I had a great experience with my lawyer, David Ceraso. From the beginning to the end of my case, David was there to make sure that I was well informed about the proceedings of my case. Great communication and great insight was provided. I was very impressed by the outcome of my case. Great job by David Ceraso. Definitely worth it.

I was so impressed with the fact that Miss Holly sat and listened to me tell my story and everything I had done to remedy it. She gave me a good sound advice was clear precise and very professional in every way. As well as making me feel that I was important that I wasn't imagining what was happening I fully recommend her to anybody that is having issues with workman's comp.

It's easy to see why Justin and his team have earned all the awards they have. They are honest and truly care about helping the people who reach out to them for assistance. I had a very complicated situation that involved components of both employment and defamation. Justin listened, provided me with some of his initial thoughts and connected me with another firm that specialized in the defamation aspects of the matter before I had even decided whether to pursue any kind of case. He didn't just pass me along, try to convince me to pursue an employment issue alone or write me off either. He and Ashley came along beside me to help me navigate the process, ask the right questions to get clear answers, and thoroughly explain possible options and outcomes. They showed genuine integrity and concern in helping me determine next steps regarding a situation that has had a significant impact on my personal and professional identity and it is for that reason that I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal services.

I was in a car accident in May 2021. I was told by the insurance company of the person who hit me that because I wasn't injured, I would only receive $1,200 for potential doctors visits and $3,000 for the value of my truck. I told them they had no clue if I was injured or not because I hadn't gottenany scans of tests done yet, but my neck was hurting badly and I also told them I would be getting a lawyer. I contacted Justin from a referral a friend gave me. I'm extremely glad I contacted him and his team, because they took my accident seriously. I got tests done and went to professionals for my back pain. I found that I had bulging disc's and a tear in my spine. After a couple years of constant chiropractic care, shots in my back and many more appointments and missed work, my case was settled and for much more than what the insurance said I would get. I believe Justin and his team did a great job of handling my case and getting me fair compensation for the pain and damages I accrued over the last few years. I would recommend them to anyone who is involved in an accident!

I decided to trust Berry Law after a serious personal injury accident, and I highly recommend that anyone in a similar situation do the same. Josh and Alex were incredible to work with throughout the entire process, making the experience as painless as possible. They were friendly, easy to talk to, and communicated professionally and promptly. Their expertise and care were evident at every step, and they made all the heavy lifting seem effortless.
Most importantly, Josh and Alex went above and beyond to achieve the best possible outcome for me and my family. These guys are true masters of their craft. Simply put, they are the ones you want on your side. I wholeheartedly recommend them to friends, family, and anyone in need of reliable legal representation.

John Ballew was recommended as the best attorney available in the Lincoln area for my divorce. During the lengthy, complicated and often contentious process, Mr. Ballew maintained the highest level of professionalism thru many opportunities to respond to poor conduct. He was consistently calm, well-prepared and empathetic. Mr. Ballew provided succinct advice and clear direction, in the short and long term interests of my children and I. In addition, he is assisted by Sharlyn, a responsive, caring and equally professional advocate. I am grateful for the superior legal representation and advocacy I experienced with John Ballew and his staff.

Attorney John Ballew leads the way through a very difficult life changing event. Upon completion of the initial paperwork, Atty Ballew is engaged, diligent and devoted to your case. Being prompt in returning your phone calls or emails is essential in a divorce, and Atty Ballew never failed to respond in a timely manner, even if it was your 5th email in one day! You will feel as if YOU are his only client. He will listen patiently as you cry or yell, he is never judgmental or critical of your soon-to-be ex spouses attorney (even if you wish he was). Attorney John Ballew plays fair!

I’m very lucky to have found this law firm. I’ve had big problems for a few years with the trustee of a trust I’m a beneficiary of, and if it wasn’t for my attorneys, Trent Reinert and Erin Robak, everything could’ve gone very differently. Their integrity, expertise, and tenaciousness saved the day more than once.
They are respectful, I feel like they actually care about me and my situation, and they don’t have to do that. I’ve dealt with three different terrible trust attorneys in Omaha over the last 5 years so it is refreshing and comforting to have two excellent attorneys on my side for the last six months while the trust is being distributed and closed soon. I will keep them as my attorneys.
I highly recommend these two for any trust work or litigation you need. Trent deals with trusts and accounting, and Erin is on the litigation side. They are truly top attorneys in Omaha.
They don’t try to overcharge you, in fact, they are incredibly conscientious about doing what is right for you, even trying to get you to not litigate if it’s not going to be to your greatest advantage. They are not trying to just take all of your money they can get. They are honest people; a rare attribute not found in many Omaha attorneys these days. I cannot recommend them enough, sincerely.

We are very grateful for the assistance that Jim and Lynette provided our family. My father was injured in a work-related accident over nine years ago, which Harris & Associates helped settle at that time. Recently we contacted their firm for assistance responding to a recovery letter from Medicare. Jim and Lynette reviewed the case and provided the necessary documentation to Medicare within a short timeframe, resolving the issue.

I would recommend Dan Friedman to anyone needing legal representation in an injury case. Dan and his team did an incredible job; Dan’s passion and commitment to us shown through in his time and dedication in educating us on our case as it evolved, he truly cares about his clients. Not only was Dan compassionate, but his knowledge and skill was second to none. Our case was one with complex medical issues and treatments; Dan's understanding of injuries, treatments, and medical terminology was impressive and leads me to believe he’s the best injury attorney that could’ve represented us.

I was hurt in an accident and really just needed advice on how to deal with the liable party's insurance company. I spoke with Abbie for 20 mins she explained to me my rights and available avenues on how not to get railroaded in a injury accident. Abbie explained to me the necessary steps involved. I haven't had such a thoughtful call with a professional that didn't expect any payment (hard to come by these days). She explained to me at Lathrop law office they only take clients they believe they can help. She coached me and gave me great advice, and the fact that there wasn't any expectations of me made me really believe this is a good group of people over there. Will recommend this law office to everyone. Just hope I never have to. If your ever in the unfortunate situation I'm in don't hesitate to call Abbie she's great, very knowledgeable and an obvious professional. I don't think any other law office would offer the knowledgeable advice Abbie gave me. Thank you again Abbie.

I emailed Whitmore Law to establish my LLC as I had read online that they specialize in this. They had me fill out a form via email and pay, and then for weeks I heard nothing from them. I never got an email walking me through the process or timing or next steps. No status update at all until I reached out two weeks later. I had to reach out a few times over the next month to check in but they still had no update until I called to complain. They then put me in an email with Mr Whitmore who emailed me saying it has been formed for 2 weeks, but again no one had let me know.
I read reviews that they walked you through the steps and were very helpful in this process, but I got none of this and they were incredibly disappointing in all areas. I still don’t know the process or steps. Would not use them again and would not recommend them to anyone forming an LLC.

We hired Mr. Novotny last July to help us with my son's car accident. My son was hit by a driver going the wrong way and totaled out his brand new car of 2 weeks. There was a lot of confusion on which insurance was going to cover his accident as she was driving a rental car and also purchased their insurance. Doug dealt with the adjuster that was the WORST adjuster in the world for over a year. He kept in constant communication with us and always made us feel reassured. He was always on top of things even when he was unable to get a response for weeks from the adjuster. I was even able to reach out to him with questions in regards to finding someone to help with a different legal issue with my daughter and he was able to help point me in the right direction as well. I just know that I'm beyond grateful to have been referred to him and had him blessed us with his services. Doug if you see this, AGAIN THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!!! If you are looking for someone who can get you the settlement that you deserve and someone that is willing to fight for you, then call Doug Novotny!!!

Mr. Doug Novotny has been a great help with me and this case , I had suffered a totaled car accident with my first car ever. I didn’t even get to make my first payment on it , only had it for 2 weeks . This lady from Australia had turned into me as I’m going straight under the traffic light as she was turning left on the opposite side of steeet and we kinda went head on then my car ran into the pole. The place I had got it from Big O Auto , the manager had referred me to him and I’m so glad he did , he’s the best lawyer anybody can have hands down. He’s so open & observes everything & tries or does help you as much as he can & get you in the care possibly because that’s what he did for me & I couldn’t thank him enough. The chiropractor and massages he referred me to 10/10 it helped me a lot and made me feel alot better . I had suffered some back & neck pain from it but as I was going through treatment and everything I was getting back to my normal self the massages had helped tremendously. Then after that I wasn’t to my full potential so he referred me to physical therapy and that was worth it after a month of that n constantly doing the stretches & techniques I felt somewhat normal again n getting myself back. Everything he been doing for me been very helpful & well needed . Settlement money is good and all and I appreciate him for helping me get the amount I got in extremely blessed for that but without his help and getting me in therapy I don’t think I would’ve been the same again . So thank you again Doug really!! Best lawyer ever not gon lie ! I deserve everything good that comes your way .

I’m trying to find the words for my gratitude to this man, and for once I find it hard to put into words. Monte is the kind of guy who you’d want to be friends with if you ever got backed into a corner. He is intelligent, strategic, incredibly experienced and will fight YOUR way out of a fight for YOU. When you have come to a place that seems hopeless, he fights to restore the balance of what is right and fair. He is what the legal system should be, in a world of cast the injured to the side, he stands up to balance the scales. If you’re wanting someone to grab the bull by the horns and fight for the cause, he will always be my number one choice. I came to Monte as a client broken and bruised, and he fought to be sure I was taken care of, and in the process he made sure I was also taken care of in every aspect of my brokenness. I am forever grateful and humbled. You cannot go wrong with Monte fighting for you when you can’t.

Monte handled my husband's workers comp case after a very serious semi accident. Monte walked him through his disability, helped with scheduling all of his appointments, made sure he understood everything that was happening along the way. He fought hard to get my husband a fair settlement and even helped us navigate the waters when my husband moved to a different state. Monte has gone above and beyond over and over with this case. I would recommend Monte to anyone that needs representation in any work related accident. Monte Neilan is excellent!

Case was a slam dunk, would've won the trial hands down. Charged 1,900$ upfront, was told it would cover everything but the trial. Pre trial plea bargain was basically no jail time and all the charges go away a year later, he told me i wouldn't be charged for the set aside that's written into the court order. Today, after the year has passed, i am being told it's another 750$ to do the set aside?? Scummy.. very scummy. Possibly a mistake due to a high work load, but this is not a new case and the services were already paid for upfront. It's like they forgot about their own word entirely, and now they are not interested in upholding the court order from the judge (set aside was written into the court order by the judge)

Mark helped me with a family law case and he did not fall short. He was reliable, cordial, set proper expectations, and gave it to me straight, the entire time. I truly appreciated working alongside someone whom was humble, immersive and truly team-inclusive.
For those who think it's a losing and biased battle for the kiddos; Mark and Krista will set you straight.
Thank you again Mark for everything, and the success achieved.

Mr. Odigbo represented me during my divorce. He made things way more easier. He was very organized, strategic and knowledgeable. The legal counseling I received was over the price charged. He is relatable and personal during difficult time. A man of high integrity and reputation.

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.
