Chris is great to work with and I wouldn't want anyone else in my corner, he really listens to your needs and does everything needed to reach the best outcome. Brittany is amazing with helping Chris and clients with everything needed to make sure they understand everything happening and educating throughout the process.

I made a phone call. Told them my situation and had an appointment the next morning. The whole team was on it from the start. I Filled out some paperwork and they took it from there. Dorian explained the whole process to me and kept me informed every step of the way. The process very simple and easy to do. They were very professional and easy to work with. I would recommend their services to anyone. They get results!!

Terence Gross excelled in representing me in an automobile accident case. He worked promptly and relentlessly on my behalf. He kept me informed by mail and by phone. He made me feel comfortable in this first time experience.
Thanks Mr. Gross to you and your hard working staff for the expertise and kindness. A lot of hard work-a reasonable fee. I highly recommend Mr. Gross if you need legal assistance.

I hired the Watson firm for my son, I was being bombarded by firms after initial consultations and decided to hire them because after research they seemed to be the firm that could get the job done. Mr. Watson and Renee H were professional and didn’t give up in spite of a few obstacles....Renee was a pleasure (even though I probably drove her nuts) Thank you for helping me help my son, your empathy and compassion each time we spoke goes a long way in my book!

Attorney Watson paid close attention to the details of my case and was able to reduce my medical bills and negotiate a much higher settlement than I expected. I didn't have to pay anything until my case was resolved. I found Mr. Watson and his staff very personable and welcoming every time I came to visit. I was very happy with the level of professionalism and expertise displayed. I highly recommend the Watson Firm if you think you have a personal injury case and are looking for a great lawyer.

I have dealt with many personal injury lawyers in my life, and this has been by far the most amazing experience ever! Mr. Scott Barnes and Felice Johnson have been absolutely amazing! Anytime I have a question or send a message, I always get a reply back within hours and Mr. Barnes even calls me personally, which is rare. Thank you all so much for everything you do!

I extend my deepest and most heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Brian Hancock and Mr. Blake Radford for their unparalleled legal expertise and unwavering support. From our first engagement, both attorneys exhibited an exceptional level of professionalism and patience that far surpassed my expectations.
My journey to resolve a complex issue with a business extended over two challenging years, during which it became clear that legal intervention was imperative due to the business’s unwillingness to act ethically. After speaking to a few attorneys, it was apparent that this firm was the best option. Their thoroughness and meticulous attention to detail were immediately apparent. Every aspect of my case was handled with precision, ensuring that no stone was left unturned. Their strategic approach and dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for me were evident in every interaction.
The support staff also deserves special recognition for their patience, professionalism, and helpfulness throughout the entire process. Messages were always conveyed immediately, and any inquiries were promptly addressed. This level of professionalism is not often seen in offices and speaks volumes about their commitment to clients and the success of their firm.
I once again extend my deepest gratitude to Mr. Brian Hancock and Mr. Blake Radford for their exceptional representation. Their professional guidance was instrumental in navigating me through a particularly challenging juncture in my life. Thank you, Taylor, Warren,Weidner, Hancock, and Barnes for your invaluable support and steadfast dedication to your clients.

let's just say on the night In question, the police had good reason to be talking to me. Fearlessly armed with a business card I flashed it around like a badge warning my surrounding officers "Trey Parnell is my lawyer. You've got 20 minutes to charge me or this stop goes from consensual to harassment. You better get your facts straight if u plan on arresting me tonight. "
At first they wanted to tell.me I wasn't going no where so I repeated my statement and said I was no longer answering any questions, provided my identification, and kinda giggled.. I had no idea whether this was going to work or not. But It did it really worked 13 minutes later I was given my i.d. and sent on my way 12 pack in hand just as hammered as I was before.. so if you need a lawyer they don't want to mess with this is your guy for sure. 1000% no doubt in my mind I proved it using my own freedom for a gamble and it worked..
This is not a paid review. Thanks for your time reading

Mr. Parnell is the BEST CHOICE FOR REPRESENTATION I COULD HAVE EVER CHOSEN IN THE ENTIRE STATE OF FLORIDA. He immediately went to work and everything worked out in the best way it possibly could. His paralegal David was always on point by keeping me updated on the status of my situation and explained everything so that I could understand it properly. When you start a legal process, it can be long, difficult, and hard to understand, so you need the best in the business to help fight for you. AND THE PARNELL LAWFIRM IS THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS. If I ever need a lawyer while in Florida or Louisiana again I'm definitely calling the Parnell law firm. Its a no brainer.

To say the least, Trey is my hero, he brought tears of joy to this little momma's eyes. My son was facing a very very large amount of time, w/out going into details, well when I hired him (something I'd never done before) I told him I understood it was a big case and I don't expect miracles only your best!! Well today that happened with a very small amount of time having to be served, my son will be home before I know it! I cannot express how passionate Trey is for his work and clients, he made the entire long journey as mentally comfortable and and easy to understand as possible. I would also like to thank him for the many visits to see my son in the county as needed, w/out hesitation. Even my son was lost for words when he seen Treys amount of dedication to him. Thank you once again Mr. Parnell and your team.

Phillip is great because he isn’t afraid to fight in court, in fact he relishes the idea, so we felt empowered to stand up for ourselves when we found ourselves in a situation where we were being taken advantage of. Phillip and his firm assisted and advised us every step of the way until we were able to achieve a satisfactory resolution. Thanks Phillip!!

After our insurance company denied our claim for Hurricane Michael damage we learned about Phillip Warren and his staff. After hearing about our problem and how the insurance company had denied our claim he took the case and began on a course that ended in a very nice settlement close to the amount we had made a claim for. During the whole process Phillip and his staff stayed in contact with us and kept us abreast of what was going on. If I ever need another attorney for this type of situation I will hire Phillip Warren again because he is a Winner!!

Rock Stars!!! That is the only words that describe Ryan Cardoso and his entire staff. My wife and I had a motor vehicle accident. I won’t go into details except to say that we never thought we would be in a situation where we needed an attorney but, we did, and I can’t express how thankful we are that someone referred Ryan to us.
I was impressed from the beginning with Ryan’s intelligence, creativity, professionalism and compassion during this journey through a very complicated case. Ryan wasn’t alone, he has an incredible dedicated team. Ryan’s paralegal and right-hand person Cheryl was communicative, supportive and we honestly felt that she became a friend.
There is a lot of big-name law practices out there with big budgets to advertise, big offices and big promises. It all sounds impressive but, if you want an attorney that truly takes the time to understand, honestly empathize and go to the wall to fight for you. Ryan Cardoso is the smart choice.

I hired one of the "big" lawfirms in Pensacola for my injuries from a car accident. After three years my case was no closer to being settled. I fired the big firm & hired Kevin Hausfeld. Within 6 months Kevin had my settled for 3 times as much as the "big firm" lawyers said I would get. Kevin's predictions about how much my case was worth and how long my case would take to settle were right on. HIRE KEVIN IF YOU NEED A PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER IN PENSACOLA!!!!

I hired Kevin for a serious personal injury claim that me and my two daughters had from a car accident. The best thing about Kevin is that he listened to what we were feeling and you could tell that he really cared. When the insurance company would not offer enough money for our injuries, Kevin sued them. Shortly thereafter, we went to a mediation and got much more reasonable settlement offers. Once we settled the case, Kevin got our medical bills reduced which got us a lot more money than we were expecting. Kevin listened and worked hard for us even after the case settled. I would highly recommend Kevin to anybody who has a personal injury claim. I have used lawyers in the past, but none were as good or caring as Kevin.

I received a letter from Bryan J. Hamlin P.A. It stated his flat rate fee. I thought it was suspiciously cheap, You know the saying “too good to be true.” Well, With my court date quickly approaching and many other lawyers quoting me outrageous prices, I decided to roll the dice with Bryan. Im so happy I did. My case was dismissed quickly and he made sure they can’t sell my debt again. I highly recommend Bryan! His receptionist was friendly and professional as well. Thank you so much!

The feeling that someone is on your side is invaluable. Especially when it feels that no one is and even you, yourself understand that!! That’s exactly what I felt with Ryan [Cardoso]. He and his staff definitely go the extra mile!! From the initial consultation through to my case being dismissed; I was up-to-date with everything that was happening. He made sure that I was clear on each step of the proceedings, very transparent, which I appreciate. He was also, uplifting in a time where there was much need for that voice. Thank you Ryan, Mia, and Brittney for a job that greatly exceeded my

Our family first hired Stephanie in the 1990s for my Daddy, and then I myself hired Blythe in 2011, and now we needed Stephanie for some insurance problems in 2020 for 2 separate situations. Their professional knowledge and courtesy, and their compassion went a long way to putting our worried mind at ease. We set up a meeting that day, I remember thinking, why are we sweating the small stuff, let's call Taylor Warren Weidner and Hancock. She won all of our cases too, a total of 4 situations, yes she won them all. Her staff too, are so professional and nice, their compassion is like a light a glow on their face when you meet them. When you are drowning in the insurance game, their smiles are a welcome greeting. Thank you all for all you do, and thank you Stephanie so much. We are so glad you were on our team.

This review is long overdue, my apologies to Stephanie Taylor and the entire team for taking so long! Everyone I encountered was very friendly and helpful while handling my case. I highly recommend Stephanie Taylor and TWW if you need assistance with a complicated Social Security case or any other case they are able to handle, you definitely need to go see Stephanie Taylor, they will steer you in the right direction. When I became overwhelmed, I began looking for assistance and contacted several local attorneys, however, due to the complicated nature of my case, I was referred to TWW by two other local attorneys. I had my initial appt with Stephanie and felt very comfortable speaking with her. Stephanie is very knowledgeable and down to earth the staff was always professional. This was a long and very complicated process as well as frustrating for everyone involved but we thankfully prevailed and a weight was lifted. Thanks so much to everyone at TWW! The whole team really does care about their clients, they even hold an annual fall dinner event that includes free dinner, music and games for the whole family for all their clients and they give out great swag too!!! I love my insulted cup and bag I received during a FB promotion. #TWW #socialsecurity #wewon

I was with a previous firm before going to Michels and Booth! Adrian is an honest attorney! If I had any questions, and he did not have an answer, he would let me know find out the answer and contact me back! My case was a difficult case due to the previous attorney office's negligence! That attorney would stall, and drug my case out and extra6 months to a year in which it did not need to be! Adrian was very professional and reliable! My fiancé does not like attorneys and says they are all out for money! He really dislikes attorneys, however, once my case was settled, Adrian Bridges and Michels and Booth really showed us what their firm is about! This firm is wonderful and honorable! This would be my number #1 pick and would refer friends and people in a heart beat! Stephanie Joiner the paralegal that handled my cause was a sweetheart! You get to know these people and when your case is closed and done, your feel like your saying bye or see ya later to friends!

New experience and full of what now, how to, questions, directions, insurance pressures and adjuster manipulations. I initially consulted to see if the need to hire was warranted. Super glad we came. Atty. Todd and his assistant Jessica were tops! Less hassle, worry and stress with this case. They were reassuring, very knowledgeable, and their communication with me was not lacking. Not a situation anyone desires, but if ever another time I have a legal need, I will have no hesitation to call this firm. They are very professional and welcoming at the same time. Thank you Attorney Todd and Jessica!

I just wanted to take a moment to thank your firm for the outstanding efforts by your firm on behalf of my wife! This was a time of great hardship for my wife and myself. After 25yrs in corporate America, I have had a great number of interactions with law firms, both business and personal. NEVER, have I had the pleasure of working with such great professionals, that were of course knowledgeable, but supported us in every way. Chris Paulos, Professional, made himself readily available to answer all questions anytime I needed him. I look at him as a true friend with all the answers! Plus he’s A GREAT ATTORNEY!

I write this review with pleasure. I have used this law firm several times and with total satisfaction. All involved, paralegals, front desk and especially my recent Attorney, Rylan Barnett were very friendly and professional. Rylan is hands on… he told me what he could do realistically and did exactly that . We discussed all decisions all along the way with a suit that could have gone to jury trial. My advice to all.. be well documented with your case and your results will be so much stronger in your favor. It’s amazing how once one retains the right Attourney … the defendant knows he’s up against something real… the key to this is having an attourney that understands your situation and willing to fight for you. Ryan is this person as all the Attourneys at this firm are. One thing that highly impressed me… I called a great life long friend of mine… he is a very successful attorney… This is who he recommended for me. It was a great and right choice. Also… no over billing … I was very pleased at my bottom line and final billing. Trust me as you may already know.. this is not always the case. I love that this firm is one stop shopping for most all my needs. Next I’ll be reaching out to produce my Will and get them more involved with business contacts, etc. Bottom line .. when people do what they say..produce good results within reason. They become my professional friends. Trust in life is everything… have an issue. Rylan will be up front with you. Highly recommend.

Ryan Barnett was, with no questions, all jokes aside, hands down, truly the greatest d attorney I've ever encountered. Very happy with his performance. And as very grateful, id also like to show my gratitude for another one of Ryan's co-workers, Mr. Brandon Clark. They will consistently go out of there way to update the status quo and inform you on the progress in my case, never had to call them once. Great job! If there were an option for more than 5 stars , these guys would, with no doubt, be rated easily a 7- 10 Thank you

You can search the entire state of Florida, and you would not find a harder working, more caring, more efficient attorney than J. Donovan Whibbs. He handled my very complex workers compensation case against a large big box corporation and he won! I received a large settlement for my injury. I highly recommend him. Gary H.

I was in an unfortunate situation that was tremendously untimely. After consulting with 6 different lawyers, I decided to go with Mr. Jason Cromey. The reason Jason initially stood out to me was because of his incredible history in and out of the courtroom. I, without a doubt, am very happy that I put my trust into Jason. My case seemed like it was not going to end well for me. I felt like I had everything going against me. Jason was honest and straightforward with me the entire time. There was no sugar coating or anything of the sort. However, he still had a way of easing my mind throughout the process. He was honestly kind of amazing with the amount of time and research that he put into my case. Jason was able to find evidence in every little crack, that ultimately brought about a successful resolution in my case. I immediately felt a huge weight lifted off of my shoulders, and am now moving forward with my life. 10 out of 10 times, I would recommend my family and friends to hire Jason Cromey.

I feel like we were so blessed to have found Jason out of all the lawyers that's in Pensacola to have been able to find and use Jason was from God . We ended up in court over something that should have never gone to court and over a lie and another Lawyer not doing his JOB. So we have learned the importants of a good lawyer that what we found in Jason THE BEST he was Smart, Brillant in the courtroom, caring, Understanding, He Listen, He explain what was happening, he was a pleasure to be with, He was calm, He truly cares about his clients, You go in as a client and leave as a friend. Now don't think I feel this way because of our good outcome I told him before we ever went into the court room for the last time no matter what happen in here I appreciate all you have done because he did his best and I believed just that way.I am 63 years old never needed a Lawyer in my life and Jason was my Brothers lawyer and he (Jason) will tell you he wasn't my lawyer but he felt like my lawyer. He treated us with respect and he did his BEST and what more can you ask for. I would send any member of my family to him. That is how much faith I have in him.

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.
