We've used Brian for all sorts of things and he is AMAZING. He's helped with trademarks, copyrighting, filing patents. He's given great legal advice on how to handle different business situations. I've had a few issues with individuals using my copyright or stealing my content and he's nipped it in the bud. 100% recommend.

Ms. Blacknall handled my divorce case (and me) with finesse and compassion in a manner that I have heard no other similarly unfortunate friends describe their own experiences, with other firms.
The entire team is beyond responsive. I had moments of panic and sent emails that were less than "professional" and was amazed to see the care and effort as well as timing of the responses from Ms. Blacknall and her staff.
The speed of the divorce was delayed only by myself and my ex-partner.
I highly recommend the Law Offices of Sharita Blacknall.

I had to terminate representation due to the extreme lack of response from Greyson, which his secretary even admitted that she did not know why he was like that.
when I finally did talk to him he said to send him the parole paperwork back and he would send us back the retainer. Almost a month has passed since I sent the packet in perfect condition, verified with his secretary that he said he had received the packet but is “working” on the refund.
Now my calls go unanswered(unless i call from a different number) and I get no response from any of them. This is highly unprofessional. Will be reporting him to the state bar because this is simply unacceptable. I would not trust an attorney who lies and avoids communication with any client or former client.

I HIGHLY recommend Zinda Law Group and Matthew Swanger!
After my kids and I were in a car accident, I was spending hours a day on the phone with insurance- fighting to get help with my claim. I finally called Zinda, and I only wish I had done it sooner. Once I met with Matthew, He took over everything. From that point on, all I had to worry about was getting medical treatment. He and his assistant Cooper were so quick and on top of things. I never had to wait for a response from them when I needed help or had questions. They are professional, helpful, and kind. I can't even put into words the stress they took off of my family and me during a very challenging time. I will forever recommend them!

DO NOT USE THIS FIRM! I was T-boned on driver side on a one-way street turning left by a teenage driver running a light turning left as well onto one-way… I was struck so hard my car flew into another lane… My body swung to the right then back to the left… My head was bashed on the windshield… After an MRI… I had multiple herniated disc in my neck… I had to go through six months of daily therapy, Go through the Excruciating procedure of a medial branch block into my neck… Followed by trigger point injections… I had to miss work, I am a teacher at a private school… I teach kindergarten and I often looking down due to height of my children and as a Montessori teacher we work with materials on the floor using a mat which requires bending of the neck. I leeave so many days in tears and come home from teaching all day and put ice packs on my neck… Take OTC medicine, with pains shooting up my neck to side of my skull… And even have to tell my own nine-year-old daughter “you can’t hug me and wrap your arms around my neck”… “Please don’t pull on Mom’s neck” … Even driving in small town Temple Texas traffic is excruciating having to turn my neck to change lanes… I have to lift my body out of the seat and literally turn my whole torso just to drive safely… Everyone who knew this intersection agreed… Even the police officer off record that there’s only one way that this could have happened and that is if the teen driver was either texting or not paying attention and ran their light…Stanley and associates did NOTHING for me… I did everything they asked me to do… I never had communication from Anyone through this whole ordeal… No updates, no one asking how I was or how my treatment was going…I would have to use my short lunch break to try to call to get any kind of update and all I would hear from a rude assistant was “ We haven’t heard anything from the other parties insurance” I heard that over and over again and asked what they were doing to demand a response… And it was always well we have emailed we haven’t heard anything… We emailed again we haven’t heard anything… This firm is WEAK. Unprofessional in every sense. I have been disrespected and yelled at by the Assistant… She told me she would have Jacob call me… Who refers to an attorney is “Jacob”??? Not Mr. ? I put so many messages in and I never heard from “ Jacob “ or anyone above some young , snarky , disrespectful assistant. This went on and on with no contact no response to my messages in my car accident happened April 2023… And finally in August 2024 I get a generic letter saying they cannot do anything for me…
My insurance company wanted to total out my car and I still owed on it and it did not have a very high bluebook value on it and I would’ve really taken a loss and been without a vehicle… So I’ve been driving around my crunched up vehicle and when it rains I get water damage inside which produces mold which I have to scrub… Because my child has a severe allergy to mold… And when I initially signed on they said they would do everything to get me personal property damages… Do not TRUST these people… Never trust anyone who doesn’t even have the maturity or professionalism to return a phone call. I am nearly 50 years old and know A thing or two about business… sadly after signing on, I knew from the get-go I had made the wrong decision in who I had hired to go to bat for me! They have the poorest communication of any business I’ve ever dealt with, Zero organizational skills… I was constantly bounced around to different people having to relive everything over and over with every phone call… I was promised many call backs that never happened…. Total disorganization… The person that took my statement and discuss everything with me had the completely wrong cross street… And the sad thing is that it took them over ONE YEAR to let me know that I’ve wasted my time and they are as incompetent as I thought. I now have a new attorney who has taken my case and they are in utter shock that I was not only treated like this but that there were no damages recovered!

I can’t say enough good things about Bill Bronson and the help he provided us. Although everybody’s case is different, from our initial meeting and throughout the entire process he answered every question and helped guide us through each and every phase of what everyone would agree is the unpleasant situation of owing back taxes. He always responded quickly to any concerns we had and really helped with keeping our minds at ease. Because we put our trust in Bill, we are now in a much better place and have finally been able to stop worrying about the “what ifs”. He is definitely on my list of favorite people! If you need any help with an IRS tax problem, don’t hesitate to give Bill a call.

I cannot express how grateful I am to have had Attorney Carl Cedar defend me in my DUI case. After initially hiring another attorney who seemed eager to plea out without fully understanding the details, I made the best decision to switch to Carl. From the very beginning, he took the time to thoroughly review my case and was able to identify crucial facts that proved my innocence—details that had been completely overlooked by my previous attorney.
Carl’s professionalism and dedication were apparent throughout the entire process. He worked tirelessly, leaving no stone unturned, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for me. His deep knowledge of the law and attention to detail made all the difference, and thanks to his hard work, I was proven innocent.
I highly recommend Carl Cedar to anyone seeking a defense attorney who will go above and beyond. His expertise, commitment, and persistence were invaluable, and I am forever thankful for his outstanding representation!

I had an on going legal issue and the team at Shapiro Law Firm, especially Peter Ganyard was able not only help me through the issue but provide a great and better outcome than I would have expected. Peter worked diligently to make sure I was taken care both at the time of my legal issue and again a year later when I needed follow up to even better off the previous result. Highly recommend Peter and the rest of the team at The Shapiro Law Firm.

My husband was in a major accident and our insurance company attempted to avoid paying the claim. Mr. Hosack resolved our issue swiftly and obtained compensation for the other party and us on our first-party claim. We would have been bankrupt without his services.

I recently engaged Mr. Hosack for a personal legal matter, and it was an absolute pleasure working with him! He was incredibly thorough, attentive, and understood all the little details regarding my situation. He worked quickly and efficiently to get the job done, and the end results far surpassed what I had hoped for. Based on my experience, I highly recommend Mr. Hosack's legal services to anyone who needs them in the future.

Overall, I was extremely disappointed in Mr. Hosack's capability as my attorney and I feel like my time, money, & energy would have been much better spent elsewhere. He may be fine for traffic law but I'd go elsewhere for matters of importance.

Very poor representation. Likes to scream and yell probably because he does not know what he is doing. Absolutely the worse lawyer I have ever dealt with over the years. Do not waste your time on this person, look elsewhere for another lawyer.

Douglas Floyd is just about the very worst attorney that one can contact. I just called him to get his opinion on a personal injury case involving a senior citizen who suffered chemical burns from a leaking package that was mailed to her over Amazon.com.
Douglas Floyd was extremely arrogant, discourteous, aloof, and inconsiderately dismissive. Without even hearing the extent of the incurred injuries and damages, after about 3 - 4 minutes into the conversation, he said that he will not take the case as he does not think that there is enough money in it for him...

I had the displeasure of having a conversation with this man regarding an issue I am having. He seems to lack any social cues, respect for others and comes off terribly offensive. Honestly, if he treats everyone as poorly and as disrespectful as he did me, I wonder how he has been able to maintain any type of client base. Bypass this attorney and find a real one.

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.
