He is sharp to understand the situation and to show the best way to find a good solution. It seems like his good judgement is from his army lawyer’s experience. He knows well Korean style business running as well as American judicial system.

After a terrible life-changing work injury I had no idea where to turn or what to do. I found Bross, McAllister, & Williams LLC and was given Mr.Sentor as my attorney & representative. Words can’t describe how Appreciative I am for all of his help. Not only was he caring, but he also completely understood and listened and was very responsive throughout this whole process! Although my life has been altered, he made it comfortable for me to move on with the next step of my life.. I highly recommend BMW law group as your next Worker’s Compensation lawyers. Thxs so much..

Ben was recommended to me by my State Farm rep when I was injured in a car accident. He helped me find a great doctor and Physical Therapy group. He made me feel reassured about my lawsuit. He was always available when I had any questions. He made sure I got what I deserved and then some. I definitely recommend Ben if you need an attorney.

Ben Williams was amazing with our claim after a car accident. He advised us regarding our claim without hesitation even before we hired him and were trying to settle things ourselves. We weren’t getting anywhere with the insurance company ourselves so we hired Ben and the rest was easy. Ben and his team are very professional, helpful and friendly.

Ben Williams and his staff did outstanding work representing me after I was rear ended and injured in a car accident. I had never had the need for a personal injury attorney until the accident. Ben and his staff answered all of my questions, helped me find a great doctor and physical therapy team and updated me about my case when needed. He worked to get me a fair settlement with the insurance company even with all the Covid craziness. I would recommend Ben and his staff to my friends and family if they needed an attorney.

I honestly had to take the time to thank Attorney Epps and his staff again through an outstanding review in regards to my case and the way they handled things.. Awesome services, unmatched, I’ve never had such a great experience with a Law Firm. Kyle Epps was highly recommended and I did my research, but my own personal experience was way better than I thought. My back was against the wall, and time was of the essence, Mr Epps and his kind and helpful staff did way above grade with my case and advocated for me and advised me even how to move going forward in my personal affairs that would also further help my situation and with handling things in my life. They actually care about their clients and the staff as a whole work well together… I’m truly Grateful Thanks again HJF

I don’t even know where to start when it comes to Kyle Epps. I walked in his office 3 years ago and the charges I had called for prison time. He gave me an outline on what to do, and of course I said I’ll do this and this but not that. He pushed me hard and gave me every tool I needed to stay free. Three years later I went to court and walked out just about a free man. Not only didn’t his way work in the courtroom, but it’s changed my life in every single way you could imagine. He was very stern, but he totally knew what he was talking about. His plan is 100%, it’s just a person has to do the footwork. He’s very professional and his team is on top of everything so you don’t slip through the crack. I am so grateful for meeting this man, I would not be the person I am today clean and sober if I didn’t walk into that office 3 years ago.

I was trying to establish new business. So I was looking for attorneys nearby, including the office of Bonnie Rich. I contacted twice: one through the phone number, and the other was through the website. I got response from my inquiry through the website late (several days after submitting the inquiry). After exchanging emails several times, we agreed to do phone call on a day. However, I've never heard back anymore.

I have been fortunate to have Bonnie in my corner for over the past 7+ years. She has helped me on multiple occasions ranging from paperwork to big time cases/situations. I have been happy with every time we have used her and even feel like I come out of it more educated. It is so great to be able to have her there for you when you need it and to feel comfortable knowing that she is taking care of anything that you put in front of her. She is firm, respectful and straight to the point and makes sure that you are well represented, no matter who she may be addressing. I always feel like she goes above and beyond and sincerely CARES! I would not go to anyone else for any of my needs!! I highly recommend her if you are looking for an attorney! Don't waste your time, and money, by going elsewhere. Trust me!

I was using this firm for two personal injury cases. The first case was settled fairly well. Very little interaction with the firm though after my contact went ill. The second case is where they blindsided me. I had not heard from them on this case for quite awhile until I received a letter in the mail stating that they are no longer representing me. Upon calling them to find out more information, he would not speak with me because they stated that he no longer represents me. Not a firm that I woould recommend to anyone.

I'm sure lawyers are busy... and they should. I would want my lawyer to be busy for me. But I believe when people call, they make the time to contact for reasons. Mr. Ree is really busy; trust me he won't have time for you (Case started year 2012 and it’s 2015 and the case has been settled long ago but a promised check they sent out (twice) never showed up). When you call and with a very slim chance of getting through to him, he'll just make it short; say what he wants to say with only information he knows (could be very bias as he won’t listen to you) and will just hang up on you. (Does not matter how long you have tried to reach him.) His associates are best trained to NOT give you a straight answer and will brush you off without an explanation with the usual “He's in a meeting”, “he's in a jury duty”, etc. But everyone will give you different answers in short period of time thinking that you are pretty dumb.) I think it’s pretty safe for me to state that he’s very selective on whom he needs to talk to when he wants. Surprisingly he’s best line was (of the two very short phone conversation), "you don't even refer customers to me, and it's not my responsibility to make sure you (provider such as clinics) get paid. We’ll talk when you have some referrals for me." First phone conversation was literally 3 seconds, call me back tomorrow and hung up. (Wait a minute, hold off on your big case and wait on that referral, Danny who’s handling the case will said, “I have sent a check out”, he said this, twice; and when I asked for certified mail tracking number he said that is not necessary. Okay, will the check never showed up, and he said he’ll fax over a copy of the check that was sent out and he has not answered phone call nor called back since then.) I can see clearly that he'll pick and choose his cases after what kind of profit he can make off of you. What's mind-boggling is that how would he want any business referrals after this? I thought lawyers are supposed to be somewhat smart. I have heard good things about him, only to find out the opposite, which is very disappointing. If anyone asks, Andrew Ree ESQ. is not a pleasant lawyer to trust your case with. If you have a big case, trust me he’ll want your business like all the lawyers in town. Please don’t waste your time with Andrew. I hope this helps some people. I would want to refer my business and people I care to someone with some morals and ethics as I have seen none or very little from this so called experienced "Guru." Please take your case elsewhere for your sake. I’m not sure this was just one bad case or this is their “pattern” but I can assure you and be warned that it won’t be pleasant. I don’t generally write reviews, at that a negative one, but I thought I spend some time to reach out to have any prospects to think over before you bind your self to a signed contract.

I retained the law firm of CPS in Suwanee because I was given a recommendation from a friend. Unfortunately this was the worst thing I could have done. Most time I felt with Mr. Black and he was incompetent to no end. It turns out that he has only been practicing law for a couple years. He misfiled, didn’t file correctly in my case and was a detriment to me and my family. My recommendation would not hire CPS and definitely not have Mr Black on your case.

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:

  1. What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award.
  3. 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.
  4. How often do you take cases to trial?
    Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
