In an industry that’s become about making money and getting the most social media followers, Dave is one of a handful of lawyers who’s main goal is to protect people who are in a vulnerable position and try to attain justice for them. He went to the ends of the earth to help me and I’ll be grateful to him for the rest of my life. I knew when I met him that he was special and always knew he would protect me and get me the best possible result. If you want someone who’s going to defend you like Perry Mason or matlock, he’s your guy. Most lawyers now are just litigators but Dave is a brawler and he is a nerd who knows the law. He is one of the people I respect and admire the most that I’ve ever met.

My son was charged with a felony. We are from out of town and we did not know what to do. So I hired David to handle my son’s case. His wisdom, empathy, and efforts not only eased my mind but brought us through. The charges were dropped! My son is free! He kept his job! My son is thriving today! No words can truly express my gratitude.

Mr. Morris represented me on a car crash that happened to me when I was in WA state. I tired dealign with the insurance company myself and had a feeling they were not treating me fairly. I found Mr. Morris on google and he explained everything to me right up front.
It took a few months, but the amount he got for me was about three times what insurance was offering me. Also he got my medical bills reduced, so the amount of money that I got to keep was more than three times what I would have if I had dealt with the insurance company myself.
He always answered the phone, always responded to emails and was always cool and professional to deal with. Would recommend him to anyone dealing with an insurance company.

Bob made my bankruptcy quick and painless. He was able to calm my fears and keep me on track after a messy divorce and difficult decision to file the bankruptcy. Bob was thoughtful, intelligent, and knowledgeable, and he found creative ways to deal with an unexpected snafu. Well after the paperwork was filed and the court appointments were complete, Bob continued to follow up with my case, making sure every detail was taken care of. I highly recommend Bob Garrison to anyone needing a skilled and considerate attorney.

Mr. Levandowski was passionate about my case. He worked diligently and often was available to call me about my case after business hours due to my hectic schedule. We went to arbitration and I got far more than I thought I would for my arbitration award on my accident. He is goofy and kind. I would use him again if the occasion were to ever arise.

Mr. Levandowski was wonderful to work with. He saved me any additional costs on my case and his legal assistant, Jeri is lovely. She is informative, professional and caring. Both Mr. Levandowski and Jeri made me feel like I was the only case they had by taking the time to work with me and answer any questions I had. I have and will continue to refer my friends and family or pretty much anyone else to him for a car accident. I would have been a mess without them by my side advocating for me.

When our own insurance company filed a lawsuit against us, nobody wanted to help. Kylie was great! She was quick to answer questions and helpful to communicate what steps to take. She was very level headed, but could turn on the attorney %#*> if needed.
Thank you Kylie!

Mr. Becker never sought my endorsement. He doesn't strike me as someone who is spending much time on these websites. I had a terrible injury requiring surgery. He kept fighting even when I wanted to give up. I couldn't be happier with the results and the entire experience.

Our experience with the law firm didn't begin with James Crawford (J.C.). We were introduced only partway through. I must say the personal attention and impression of how much my fiancee and I mattered in this claim increased substantially once he was brought into the loop. Where before we were rarely communicated with and made to feel like we were sometimes on the outside looking in in our own case, J.C. kept us abreast of each new development and any pertinent changes in the negotiations with the opposing insurance company. We were quite satisfied with our settlement and overall experience. What started out frustrating and uncertain became expedient and confident once he took the reins for our case. I highly recommend his services.

If are in legal trouble, I BEG you to stop worrying and searching, and contact Glisson & Morris.
This is a REAL review, and Glisson & Morris reviews are not oddly similiar, like other lawyers, such as the similiar use of punctuation in their reviews.
I spoke to so many lawyers trying to find someone I could trust, and was reasonably priced.
Many other lawyers tried to scare me into hiring them, gave bad advice, or discussed money very early on.
Once I talked to Stan, I immediately noticed his knowledge was FAR superior, and his calm honesty was reassuring.
He knew the time and day of my court date before I told him.
He was already talking about reviewing police body cams on the first phone call!
Stan is a former Deputy Prosecutor, and has even served as a temporary District Court Judge!
Trust me, your getting alot of lawyer for your money and it's well worth it.
He always kept me very informed and calm during my case, no matter how much I contacted him.
The outcome of my case was amazingly good and beyond my expectation, and I can't thank Glisson and Morris enough.
I told him I would leave a review as a thank you, but I honestly can't express in words how appreciative and glad I am that I hired him.
Thank you so much Stan and God Bless You.
I really hope you save your time, and sanity, and contact Glisson & Morris.

Having worked in the legal field for 25 years has brought me enough knowledge to know a "special attorney". Chalmers Johnson is one of them. It goes without saying that he knows his profession, but special in the way that only few are: one who truly cares, has integrity, and is eager to be helpful as possible.

Due to events we're all too familiar with, I recently had to work with a labor attorney and Chalmers gave us everything we needed through very anxious and stressful times, and more. I've been extremely lucky to be working with very sympathetic and exceedingly generous lawyers when I, very occasionally, needed - not for being in trouble, but just needing expert and precise professional support - and Chalmers has been my lucky strike this time.
He's responded to our initial consultation, then there was additional support through some follow ups, and further he never ceased responding even outside of a contractual obligation. I truly feel he took it as a personal obligation to make sure we are best advised and positioned throughout our process, and just that we always feel supported and in good shape.
Simply outstanding. I could not recommend Chalmers more.

Having never been in trouble, I've had no need for a lawyer until now. I called David LaCross and he was able to meet with me immediately. David alleviated my fears and took time to explain everything to me. Thankfully he got the charge dismissed without me appearing in court. What impressed me the most was that he personally contacted me with updates. I am so grateful for his kindness and expertise.

I found myself with an unexpected criminal charge, scared and concerned I reached out to this firm. I was contacted quickly by Greta Coleman. Working with her was seamless and as easy as being in this situation can be. She was responsive and communicative.
Due to her relationship with the prosecution, she was able to negotiate prior to my arraignment. At my arraignment she was assertive, well spoken, professional and obviously respected in the court room.
My spouse and I were very impressed by her. The judge commented multiple times about how prepared she was and how she had gotten everything submitted and uploaded prior to court which made things easy for him, and therefore able to enter my agreement that day, instead of having it pushed to another calendar.
This pending charge and the stress and fear it brought was by far one of the most difficult times in my life, and I am so glad I chose Greta to represent me.

Mr. Hill was extremely professional and expeditious in handling my Chapter 7 bankruptcy case. Additionally, he was able to get a huge settlement from the IRS for me. Last...all of this was done for me at a very affordable cost. No hesitation in recommending David Hill to any and all.

The only reason i am not giving his office 5 stars is because the receptionist acts like you are inconveniencing her and the legal assistant loses paperwork. I did not enjoy interacting with either of them. The original receptionist was so much nicer.
David was fantastic and worth every penny. He was very knowledgeable and put my fears at ease. I would recommend him to anyone facing bankruptcy.

Was hung up on, twice, after waiting 2 weeks to simply contact the court and request a court date hearing to take care of a warrant. They won't even do us the tiny favor to file a form to recuse themselves from our case, so we can try to get things rolling.

I hired him having been warned by another lawyer that he would sell me out to the D/A. Upon pre trial day, Jake failed to enter critical evidence in my case and made deals with the D/A that I did not approve of. Jake did not tell me what he was going to do. Jake was rude and yelled at me often. I am not guilty of the charges, and i fired Jake and i now have a new lawyer.

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.
