Thomas Vaughan and Matt Wax we're hired for my workman's comp case.
They're very knowledgeable they took care of everything I needed legally.
Their staff work just as hard as they did anytime I had a problem it was just a phone call away to take care of the problem or find out what to do.
It is a law firm that I highly recommend they're very good at what they do.

After an incredible ordeal of having surgery and facing rehab Derek James has been very helpful and understanding and made me feel like I wasn’t alone during this process. Each little problem that came up Derek had or found a solution and got me through it with no fuss no muss! I hope never to find myself in this type of situation again but I know that if I do or anyone I know does, I know where to go! Thank you Derek for all you have done!

I am so satisfied of the service and professionalism of Frank and his team. They are outstanding and I recommend them to anyone that is looking for an Attorney that deals with compensation and that is willing to go to WORK for YOU!!!!!!
I have never had to pursue any kind of Attorney for compensation in my lifetime until most recent. I semi researched the matter and Mr. Eidson's name popped up and without further choice I in fact choose to call and I spoke with Frank directly. I stated facts and he said sounds like a good case and he and his team did the rest. Gave me a time frame and it went accordingly. A1service!!!!! Thanks Frank

I had the unfortunate experience of being rear ended and injured in a car accident last spring. I started out trying to resolve my injury claim with a ‘big box’ attorney but ultimately I just felt like a number to them which left me feeling even more overwhelmed with the complicated process of paperwork and doctor appointments. Thankfully, I was referred to Frank and his team and making that switch to resolve my case was the best decision I could’ve made. Denise and Frank did an amazing job fighting for me and helping me close my case with a positive outcome. Most importantly they made me feel like a person who mattered from the first conversation I had with them. My only regret is that I didn’t start my case with them from the start. I would recommend them to anyone!

I feel the need to write this 5 star review because when I was in dire need of an attorney, it was all the positive reviews about this firm that helped me pick them to represent me. My attorney Whitney Page was excellent! My case was very complex as it dealt with several parties (life insurance companies) and my sibling as well. Whitney went above and beyond to have justice made on my behalf. Her professional representation, persistence, and knowledge of the law helped me settle my case. I was very impressed with my attorney as well as her legal team including Emily who was my case manager. They were in constant communication with me and I fully trusted them with my case. I would not hesitate in having Jason Turchin's firm represent you. They will fight for you until the end! Seek no more you have found your attorney here!

Herr Olson ist zweifellos einer der besten Anwälte, die wir bis jetzt hatten. Unsere Zusammenarbeit begann bereits im Jahr 2019, als wir noch in Deutschland waren, und er hat uns in allen rechtlichen Angelegenheiten begleitet, sowohl in Deutschland als auch seit unserer Ankunft in den USA.
Herr Olson zeichnet sich nicht nur durch sein beeindruckendes juristisches Fachwissen aus, sondern auch durch seine außergewöhnliche Verfügbarkeit und Zuverlässigkeit. Egal zu welcher Zeit oder in welchem Land wir uns befanden, er war stets für uns da und hat sich unseren Anliegen mit höchstem Engagement gewidmet. Sein Einsatz für unsere Belange ging weit über das hinaus, was von einem Anwalt erwartet wird.
Darüber hinaus haben wir Herrn Olson als äußerst anständigen und korrekten Menschen kennengelernt. Seine Ehrlichkeit und Integrität sind lobenswert und haben uns das Vertrauen gegeben, dass wir uns in guten Händen befinden. Er hat uns stets klar und verständlich über die rechtlichen Aspekte informiert und uns dabei geholfen, die besten Entscheidungen für unsere Situation zu treffen.
Dank Herrn Olson fühlen wir uns bestens gerüstet, unseren amerikanischen Traum zu verfolgen. Seine Unterstützung war und ist von unschätzbarem Wert, und wir sind überglücklich, ihn an unserer Seite zu haben. Wir können Herrn Olson nur wärmstens empfehlen und sind dankbar für die exzellente Arbeit, die er für unsere Familie geleistet hat.

Laura Parker recently represented myself on a injunction order filed. She did a great job at quickly presenting details to the judge to have the case dismissed. She arrived well equipped with past cases to present and had enough information on the complaint to be prepared should the judge have taken further steps to hear the case beyond her initial argument.

Prior to filing for Chapter 7 I spoke with several attorneys about my case. Juan stood out immediately as the most responsive to my concerns, well organized in operations, and able to describe a clear path to results. There is a lot of paperwork involved in the process so Juan was able to adapt to the details of my case and help ensure that the preparation was productive, quick, and that the results were high quality. Before the meeting with the creditors he prepared me and ensured that I can be successful during the event. We recently brought my Chapter 7 to the desired outcome. I would happily recommend Juan to anyone interested in filing for bankruptcy.

I had the privilege of working with Hale on my high-conflict case, and I couldn't be more grateful for his dedication and expertise. I was in a situation where I felt hopeless as a single father, but Hale stepped in midway and completely changed the course of my case. From the start, he took the time to listen to my concerns and explained everything with clarity. His knowledge of the law is unmatched, and he was incredibly transparent throughout the entire process. He doesn’t treat you like just another client; he makes you feel like family, and you can tell he’s genuinely committed to fighting for you.
When it came time for trial, Hale’s confidence and expertise were on full display. Watching him in action was nothing short of impressive. He set realistic expectations from the beginning, and everything he said would happen, did. No false promises, just honest, diligent work. If you're in need of a lawyer who is not only skilled but also genuinely cares about your case, Hale is the one you want. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a trusted attorney to take their case all the way to trial.

I have contacted this firm 3 times in the last 3 weeks trying to find a new attorney to handle both estate planning and new business formation/ structure advice. I have no idea if he is a good attorney or not because NO ONE EVER CALLED ME BACK!!! I would have to be a fool to keep calling and begging them to get back to me. They must have enough business- likely more than they can handle if they can’t even return my call. If this is any indication of how they treat their clients, I wouldn’t want them to represent me anyway!

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.
