Attorney Tim Felice and his team, Felice Trial Attorneys in West Palm Beach, Florida is a top-rated law firm. Following a car crash which left me with life long injuries, we were referred to Tim Felice. Felice and his small, but mighty team have worked tirelessly on my behalf.
Like David facing Goliath, Tim is able to assess the situation and make the best decisions to bring down the “giant”, whether that is in a courtroom trial setting, or a pre-trial settlement, alleviating the need for trial. Much like the boxer who has been hit but comes back up swinging at their opponent, Felice Trial Attorneys is willing and able to take on even the most difficult of cases for their clients.
This team leaves no stone unturned, and the needs of the clients are first and foremost at this firm. Their integrity and honesty when dealing with both their clients and opposing counsel is one of the reasons that we chose to have the firm represent us.
If you are injured, make the first call to Felice Trial Attorneys - you will not regret the decision to have this team in your corner, fighting every minute for you!

We had a case with another firm and we were treated like a number. They didn’t return calls, and were left in limbo for over a month. We switched to Tim after speaking with a friend that used him. It was the best decision we could have made. He handled our case with utmost professionalism and in no time we had a very nice settlement. We highly recommend you hire Tim!

Outstanding experience from start to finish.
From the support staff to the attorneys, this is a well oiled machine that goes to bat for you and wins.
I was unfortunately in a 2nd accident and based on how Anidjar & Levine handled my 1st accident, I retained them again for the 2nd one.
Not too big and not too small, I recommend Anidjar & Levine as a perfect fit.

I am pleased to report that I have received the absolute highest quality of representation from Jack P. Hill, far exceeding my expectations in regards to his legal expertise, professionalism, experience, compassion and care, and the final outcome in my case. He and his amazing team fought for me, educated me, and delivered, when I was in a hopeless situation with no one to turn to. Jack and his assistant, Kikka Claudio, gave me personal attention at every request, they were completely dedicated to getting me the best medical care, the best private investigator, prompt attention, precise communication, and justice. They set the highest standards for their profession. They were dedicated to me in a time of great suffering and they did all that they could to relieve my pain, taking extra care to make sure that all of my needs were met until I was made whole again. They did so from the bottom of their hearts, and I will never forget it. Neither can I ever thank them enough.
Sincerely,

Mr. Valente and his staff are amazing! They fought a large insurance company, after my claim was basically denied, and because of their efforts and knowledge, I was able to receive the maximum settlement to which I was entitled. It was a pleasure working with him and his staff, and I would give him 10 stars, if I could! I will recommend this firm to everyone!!

I have had the opportunity to have Keith represent me in two cases over the past 4 years.
I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney than Keith after my car accident. From the start, he was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and supportive. He guided me through the entire process, explaining every step and making sure I understood my options.
The communication was excellent; whenever I had questions, Keith was quick to respond and always kept me updated on the progress of my case. He fought hard to get a fair settlement and didn’t back down when the insurance company tried to lowball me.
The outcome was better than I had hoped for, and I truly believe it was because of his dedication and expertise. I would highly recommend Keith to anyone in need of a skilled auto injury attorney. You can trust him to take care of you and fight for your rights.

I had the pleasure of working with Keith Hedrick, Esq., at Murray Guari Trial Attorneys after I was involved in a car accident. From the very beginning, Keith showed genuine care and concern for my well-being and the safety of my family. He was thorough, attentive, and made sure to explain every stepof the legal process in detail, putting me at ease during a stressful time. After the insurance company made minimal offers to settle the case, Keith didn’t back down and filed a lawsuit on my claim and worked diligently to achieve a favorable settlement. His expertise and dedication to my case were clear throughout, and I truly felt like he was fighting for my best interests. I can't recommend Keith Hedrick enough to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney who is not only skilled and professional but also truly cares about his clients. Thank you, Keith, for everything!

Mr. Shalhoub is an excellent attorney. After our initial discussion I knew he was the perfect attorney for my case and I looked no further .We were able to settle in a reasonable amount of time and he handled my case with the upmost professionalism and fairness. Robert was very compassionate with me throughout a very stressful process. He is straight to the point and very honest. His staff is amazing as well. I am greatly appreciative of all work each and every one of them contributed to my case. I would recommend Robert Shalhoub over and over again!

I dont even know where to begin with reviewing Mr Shalhoub and his team. I have been seperated from my NOW ex husband since Feb of last year....after months of not acting on it i was finally served by my ex for the divorce. I than scrambled to find an attn. A friend referred me to another attn who will remain nameless, and will not go into much detail, but after being told "maybe you should get back with your ex husband and have him sign a post nuptial agreement" (my ex husband was trying to make me sell my house and give him half when he had no entiltment to it) I knew i had to take matters into my own hands and find someone else. I had a GOOD friend who is a retired police officer refer me to Mr Shalhoub. His team quickly got me in for a consulation and Mr Shalhoub was right on it fighting for my home. Promising me that i am safe. Within 30 days I WAS DIVORCED and my house was safe. There are no words to show my appreciation to Mr Shalhoub. I will be forever grateful for him making this a VERY easy process!!! Do not look any further when looking for a good family attorney.

Jay came highly recommended when I was corporate counsel for a large financing business client across the country. Jay's knowledge and experience made him my top choice to represent my corporate client. He was able to provide the experience of a big law firm but with the personal touch of a smaller law firm. Jay is my go-to attorney in the West Palm Beach area.

I have only met and been speaking with Jason for a little over a week now about my personal contract dispute and all of my options. He has taking several phone calls and emails from me to assist me with my case and I have not even retained him as my lawyer yet. (But I will be!!!) His willingness to go so above and beyond has renewed my faith about lawyers. I will right a further review later, but just wanted people to know this man actually cares about people who call and seek his advice.

I am happy to submit a review for Jason Maier as I felt very comfortable in court with his expertise by my side.
Being a successful lady entrepreneur of a Christian company, I have carefully selected those I bring into my inner circle. I chose Mr. Maier for two important reasons when I needed legal assistance.
Jason is a Christian man who not only leads his personal life with the highest of integrity but brings that standard of professionalism into his work place. Secondly, I have the privlidge of knowing Jason as a long time friend .
It has been my privledge to watch this incredibly talented and committed man excell in his industry. I was more than happy with the service Jason performed for my company and would highly recommend him going forward.

I cannot say enough about the respect I have for this man and his service to my family. If you need results this is your guy.

My wife and I have been fighting for visitation for my 5 year old son from someone else,
For some odd Reason (so we though at the time) she would not allow the "father" to be in this child's life.
For the first time, Malik Leigh got my story out there in front of the judge and taken care of.
If you are just starting your Child Custody agreement or if you’re feeling beaten and you’re ready to give up, you need to hire this guy.
Having already experienced several attorneys who tell you what you want to hear, yet ultimately do nothing for you—except take your money, we gave Malik a try.
He has been an honest open real human being who genuinely cares. Rather than someone who just wants to collect our money.
He fought for us endlessly to find out if my son was even mine or not, and went out of his way to get proper information and paperwork for our case and well as termination.
After a tough fight- The Truth was finally revealed and everyone's stress and problems were put to rest.
Thank You so much Malik for helping Me and my wife open a new chapter to life.
Without you, I would have never known!
The only thing I REGRET is not hiring you SOONER!!

Basically I was hit by two vehicles. I was hurt and really confused about what to do. Both the vehicles that hit me fled the scene and I didnt even think I had a case! But thanks to Rico Lively I was reassured in this process and given the opportunity to recover my losses. Thank you so much. I will refer as many people as I can to you and your firm. I never had an issue with communication and was always kept abreast of all proceedings.

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.
