I have relied on Rod Stephens for years for advice in personal and business related HR issues. He is always fair, honest, and knowledgeable. Again and again, I consistently seek him out for guidance on situations. He was very helpful helping us navigate a sensitive FMLA issue with a long term employee. He has also assisted in reviewing company policies and was of great help in that process.

Rod helped me with a discrimination law suit. He gave me valuable advice and kept the issues realistic and manageable. Although the case could not be pursued due to date constraints, there is now a record of the discriminatory activities at my former employer.
Rod and his staff are great and I really enjoyed working with them.

I was represented by John Forsythe from Campbell/Barnett Law Offices in Puyallup, Washington. I had been involved in a car accident in which I suffered some injuries from a non-insured motorist. I was recommended to John Forsythe as an Injury Related Attorney to representing me in a loss suit because of the injuries I sustained from my accident.
Mr. Forsythe did an exceptional job in representing my case to the fullest extent. He not only took care of all correspondence between the different medical coverages but also brought such ease to my own life in reassuring me of the outcome of my case. He was very forthright in all he did for representing me. All aspects of my case were covered from the injuries to car repairs, and everything else that involved my confidence in him as my representative from this law office.
I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs assistance in following up after being involved in an accident and receiving bodily injuries. He has many gifts and talents but especially the gift of caring for his client. I felt very taken care of by him with his expertise.
Thank you, Mr. Forsythe, for your thoroughness in every aspect of my case and your expertise in this area of law. You did an exceptional job of representing me and I so appreciate your kindness throughout my total case.
Sincerely,
Rita

This attorney was not at all helpful with my case. I strongly believe Pamela should only represent women. Pamela is ruthless and the most dishonest attorney I have ever dealt with. If you are a man wanting more custody rights then DON'T use this attorney. She wants men to pay out more than they can afford and seems to care less about the welfare or needs of a child. A child needs both parents! After years of attempting to get visitation rights with my child, it appeared that Pamela was working for the mother and not me. It was a lot of time and money wasted in my opinion. I dealt with Pamela 5 years ago on the custody case and I still have no relationship with my child because of the way Pamela handled the case. She came highly recommended by an Army buddy's wife and I couldn't be more disappointed in the outcome. I have since found an outstanding attorney that I feel is working for me and who believes in a father having a relationship with his child.

I had a great distain for her so I told my self I would wait some time after ( about 2 years ) before I wrote this. To start I didn't think I would need much help in my case because I just want to have more access to my kids and be done with it. So I thought Pam should be adequate for the job. She seems to be an aggressive. My case due to my situation was only going to go one way. Being a White male in a Corporate Job making good money working hard for my family the court system is set up to reward the opposite. I provide Pam well prepared documentation which. She communicated fairly well via text. She had to take a couple personal time off which was not communicated to me. I asked her to communicate to the other lawyer and she was very reluctant to do so. I was very disappointed with her progress and almost hired another lawyer (actually gave him a retainer of $3000) after finding out he had a past criminal record I recalled my retainer. because of quite a few of her comments to me I felt that she didn't like me because I was a man. I confronted her after all this and asked her if she was working for me. She said yes. I felt by her statements and actions that she didn't know was an Investment instrument specifically pension plans and 401k plans. I had a unique issue with a small pension plan that need attention for the other lawyer three months prior to a deadline of a signature. She finally presented the request to the other lawyer after we had a deal on the divorce. The other attorney tried to stall on the signature holding up the divorce. Pam to me seemed more concerned about getting the other attorney's request answered than my divorce. I pointed this out to her which made her mad and she threatened to drop me during the divorce. I had to pay for a consultation with high price attorney to sort out my option due to Pam's actions. All that said I could see that she does help out the Hispanic community with the legal system and has done good work with this community. The legal system is not for the people (from my view point the judges distain who they are supposed to serve) she helps them with the system. I think should would better represent women than men.

I hired Mr. Robinson for a custody agreement. He said it would be a quick case. We agreed on the payment schedule and I paid every month as agreed. When the case took longer than he figured it would be he became harder and harder to get in touch with. He did nothing in court. I technically won my case but lost alot of time with my child and child support payments to me dropped drastically. Then he stopped cashing my checks. He sent me to collections for 3x what he billed me for. I'm still paying the collections agency years later.

Terry Robinson is part man, part amazing. When my husband's ex-wife decided she didn't want to return our daughter after a scheduled visit she filed for an emergency hearing to be allowed to keep her without a single shred of evidence while we lived in another state and could not respond in person. He briefed himself on our case with only 30 minutes notice, rushed to represent us in the hearing, and got the erroneous motion thrown out and our daughter was returned the next day under the order of the judge. There are no words good enough to express how thankful I am to this man for being there for us in our time of need. He is worth his weight ten fold in gold. Thank you Terry!

When Mr. Robinson took over my case, things immediately started to change for the better. He is professional, competent, and he cares about his clients. Each time he has advocated for me, the matter was resolved. In this particular matter, he represented me in a custody dispute and child support order. He's defended me amidst multiple false allegations and ALL were dismissed. I find that if you are forthcoming with him, you get the best results. If you have any legal matter, I recommend Mr. Robinson. He's your man!

In 2004 I hired this attorney because the DAC attorney insisted I was to plea out the first day I saw him. I had met Mr. Greene months before this date and discussed things with him. He seemed to be knowledgeable. I called him and discussed the case with him, asked him if he had done this type of case before and he said yes. Asked him to motion to suppress evidence because the search warrant was too broad. This was denied and was forced into an Alfred Plea on ten counts. I found out later he avoided the motion to suppress (as he changed the subject which made things confusing) and had never done a case like this, and, in a supreme court decision the ten should have been a one count. Mr. Greene was not honest with me and buddied up with the Pros Atty the day the Alfred Plea was accepted. He even denied me the chance to review the physical evidence as the pros atty refused to show it.

I was on a date and this was quite some time ago over a decade now We were driving in the car and we're side swiped by a vehicle who mistake the gas pedal for their break to avoid a head-on collision they turn the wheel and came into the vehicle that I was passenger in. When they had struck us the man that was driving the car was speeding The vehicle had struck us on the driver side and then the car spun out and flipped. He was completely fine I was only one wearing my seatbelt what are the chances of that however I was put in to the windshield back towards my seat and got significant head trauma when my head was postured against the glass on the side the window I was young I didn't know any better I went with the lawyer that Anthony the guy on the date had gotten from his mom and I listened to her and what she said about it I ended up seeking medical care all the way over and Ohio state Munson's hospital for care We have some of the top doctors over here in Washington State however no one could figure out what was wrong with me I found out that my seizures I was having or due to underlined medical condition that I was unaware of having called relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis later on finding out that I had something else called epilepsy I talked to this man I got absolutely nowhere with him I don't know whatever happened to Anthony or that case but I was really injured in and out of the hospital for months before transferring to Ohio someone's hospital I never was able to sign any paperwork or see this man except for One time when Anthony's mom had found him did I sign a piece of paper in his office stating that they would be okay for him if I was in a state to where I can sign the paperwork that he could go forth with my case and do basically what he wanted which is not the correct term however it's something along those lines I don't remember the name of it like I said it's been so long I have been looking for this man for years and have been so confused because I have not been able to find him until today I was in my twenties when this accident had happened I believe I was 20 years old actually not even 21 yet and I'm 33 today about to be 34 this January. I gave up looking for him for quite some time and today I seen a post on next door that reminded me of this and I tried to look him up and I guess I've been getting the name wrong and the spelling so that's why I probably been unable to locate and find this man Anyways I'm getting off topic He said that I signed a paper saying that he could go forth with a case and close it when I most definitely did not I was actually incoherent in different state at this time That day of this accident ruined me for so long I still am suffering from so much due to it He did in no way shape or form advocate me and protect me instead he just did what he had to do so he could get paid what he could and I never heard anything about my case. Only that I had signed a paper and then it had been closed and I got no information other than that It was very disappointing

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.
