When my 79 year old parents were involved in an accident and had a life-altering injury for my mother, we landed in the right place with Hamilton Law and Annette Kelley (and Jessica White). We didn't know how to navigate the system between suing for damages and intertwine with Medicare also. We would have given up a long time ago if we were trying to handle this on our own. But, Annette and her team took ownership to the issues, kept us informed at each step of the process and allowed for explanations which were easy for my elderly parents to understand. I hope that we never need to use an attorney's services in the future, but if we do, you can guarantee that we will reach out to Annette and Hamilton Law Firm.

Called Jason a couple days before my court date. After a couple of other attorneys wouldn’t return my calls. He called me in for a consultation and I gladly hired him. What I liked about him is he didn’t make any empty promises that some of these guys will make. He did promise to work any angle he could use to get my charges lowered or dropped. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome facing a minimum 120 days in jail and a 6 year license suspension. This would have ruined me financially. I ended up with a plea down to 48 hours and charged with a first offense charge. Honestly think I might’ve got out of it all together if I asked him to go further with it but it wasn’t a risk I was willing to take with that great of an offer. I also want to say that under the circumstances I thought they were going to fry me if they could. He was worth double the money I paid him. In fact I have paid twice as much with not near the results. I hope I never need an attorneys services again but if I do there’s no question who that will be. Hi staff was great as well.

Jason is a great attorney who fights for you and doesn’t just take your money. Jason worked very hard on a case for me and it got transferred to another state. He didn’t just turn his back on me, he helped me get some things cleared up here in Tn so I can move forward in WVa. I feel Jason is honest and a compassionate man who doesn’t do his job for just the money. Jason truly fights to help his clients, and you don’t have to mortgage your home to hire him. I would choose Jason again and trust he’d do the best job.

Back on June 24th, 2023, I was cruising on my motorcycle, minding my own business, when out of the blue, this lady popped up out of nowhere and t-boned me going at least 50 mph and speeding! It sent me flying off my bike like something out of an action movie, easily 20-30 feet away. I ended up with some battle scars - four broken bones, my collarbone, and a few ribs. My collarbone still gives me some grief, but I'm hanging in there. The next day, I decided to give Ponce Law a call. Spoke to Nina, and she got the ball rolling. David Wyatt even swung by my place to check on me and get me signed up. I gotta give a shout-out to Cheyenne and Brian. They did their thing, no doubt. The lady who hit me had no insurance and a laundry list of citations from our accident. Now, why'd I pick Ponce Law, you ask? Simple – I'm a fan of that show with Paul Sr. from Orange County Choppers. He's in one of their commercials, giving his stamp of approval., I love that show, and I trust Paul Sr.'s word and boy was he right! All in all, I had a pretty good experience with these folks. They held it down and got me through some rough times, so I'm giving them a thumbs up. If you ever find yourself in a pickle, these are the guys to call. Peace!

I have dealt with many law firms and attorneys and staff over my lifetime related to my personal life and my past employment, but I have to say that Leah Yoder and Jennie Williams with Ponce Law firm were absolutely amazing. If I had a question about anything no matter how minuscule it was they were always glad to answer it. If I had to call either of them any time of the day, if I could not reach them right away, they called me back very quickly. They both explained the processes of my case and what to expect. Their professionalism and compassion for me and my situation was both professional and personal. I would not hesitate for a moment to call on them and Ponce law. Thanks to both of you Leah and Jennie as well as Ponce Law.

I cannot express how grateful I am for the incredible support I received from Ponce Law, specifically from my legal team, Brad Spicer and Lilly. My life took an unexpected turn when I was involved in a serious accident at a stoplight. A lady ran a red light, colliding with my vehicle on the left side and forcing me off the road. Initially, I didn't realize the extent of my injuries, but the pain and discomfort quickly became overwhelming, particularly in my head and neck. Seeking medical attention became necessary, and my life was drastically impacted. I couldn't drive for about four months after the accident, and even now, I still feel nervous and panicky at red lights. Brad and Lilly were my rock. Their communication was exceptional - they kept me informed every step of the way, leaving no room for uncertainty or anxiety about the legal process. I also want to express my gratitude to Cristina Giron for her care and concern, as she regularly checked on my progress and the status of my medical treatment. I discovered Ponce Law through a recommendation from my church family, who had been a constant source of support throughout my recovery. A dear friend, Wanda, urged me to contact Ponce Law, and I am so thankful that I did. Their dedication, compassion, and unwavering commitment to my case have been a true blessing during this challenging time. I wholeheartedly recommend Ponce Law to anyone in need of legal assistance - they are a team you can trust to go above and beyond for their clients.

Brad Burnette helped me with my personal injury case. Brad and his team did a wonderful job, they were extremely nice and welcoming! I’ve never needed an attorney for anything so I did not know what to expect. My thoughts on attorneys came from Breaking Bad and Don’t Call Saul. You know, the skeezy, slick talking, untrustworthy kind. They are nothing like that. Brad was very transparent, he kept me updated, Andrea, his paralegal, was great also. She responded to my emails very quickly and helped get me reimbursed for my rental! They handled EVERYTHING! I didn’t have to do anything really, just heal from my injuries! The whole case took less than a year! From December 2021 to September 2022. That is from wreck to check. Im thoroughly grateful to Brad and Andrea! Also Andrea is going to be a fabulous attorney!

Brad was realistic with the outcome of my case from day one. He was honest and very informative, unlike some of the other attorneys I had consultations with.

I liked how I didn't have to contact his office to inquire about progress or updates on the case. He kept me informed the entire time through phone calls or e-mails every couple of weeks to a month. Brad got the job done, landed me a huge settlement and I cannot thank him enough. You're the best, Brad!

Mr.Corbett was my attorney during a difficult time. He did a wonderful job. He kept fighting for me through a very long & difficult process. The insurance company was relentless, eventhough their client hit my vehicle from behind at an excessive amount of speed ( more than double the speed limit ).They didn't initially even offer to cover my medical expenses in full. Mr.Corbett didn't back down,he stood toe-to-toe with the well-known insurance company. He continued fighting for me through the lengthy process & the insurance company finally did relent! Kudos to Mr.Corbett! I am very thankful he was the one who fought so hard and WON my case! I HIGHLY recommend him.

I really can't express how our family appreciates Randall Crossing, but I will try. Randall Crossing is an excellent lawyer. My husband was falsely accused of assault. Mr. Crossing took our case and immediately started working. He went to the supposed "scene", took photos, interviewed witnesses and did his research. Our case drug on due to COVID restrictions - no jury trials. But finally we had our day in court and my husband was found NOT GUILTY on all counts! He knows what he is doing.

I can not say enough good things about these two wonderful women, Krista and Kamie. They were my rays of sunshine during a very dark time when divorcing my unfaithful partner of 20+ years. Both were so responsive, encouraging and compassionate when I needed it the most. During my mediation, Kamie was tireless and relentless in fighting for me. I thought of her as my very own Pitbull Warrior Angel. We were able to settle favorably but had we gone to court, I wouldn't have wanted anyone else on my side in the fight. Krista was always available to help me with any questions and paperwork, looking out for my best interest at every single step in this difficult process. They were both extremely efficient and professional but still treated me with complete compassion and concern. I really don't know what I would have done without them.

She defends her clients with great passion and many years of experience, which proved valuable beyond measure when having to counter my narcissistic ex wife. Kamie truly cares about her clients and wants only the best for them and their families. She doesn’t require her clients to come into her office unnecessarily and she charges a very fair rate for how knowledgeable and experienced she is with the Franklin legal arena and divorce law in general. She is very pragmatic and gives sage counsel to ensure the best possible outcome for her clients. I would highly recommend Kamie and her services for anyone going through the difficulty of divorce or in need of legal guidance.

We found ourselves in a somewhat embarassing position last year when our 19 year daughter was arrested for shoplifting. We were referred to Mr. Kim through a friend and contacted him for his help. Since she had never been arrested before he was able to work with the prosecutor and allow her to attend anti-theft classes which enabled her to have this minor charge expunged from her record. Without this expungement, she would not have been able to get the job she had been wanting for some time. Mr. Kim helped to ease our fears through this whole process and without his help, she might have been held back in life.

His job was to investigate the evidence given by both sides and then report his findings and his recommendation to the court regarding what was in the best interest of his client, the juvenile. Patrick was very diligent in his efforts, handled himself professionally, was available for questions and further information gathering on a reasonable basis, and made sure the evidence supported his final recommendation to the court.

First, I would like to start by saying that I am absolutely grateful I chose Micheal Ponce's firm and even more grateful to be given the attorney Allen Smith! Throughout my entire case he made sure that I received all information needed for any questions that I had he also made sure they were answered. Sometimes you can meet people that are a little too serious but he had a sense of humor, instead of making my case hard to get through he made it fun! Finally when it came time to receive my check I was having issues with my vehicle and had spoke to Mr. Smith about it.

I give Albert Allen Smith my highest endorsement in his profession as an attorney. I had three major dealings with Mr. Smith. All were in regard to my brother. First he guided me to become my brother’s legal guardian in probate court. Then he supplied the written answers to another court’s questionnaire concerning my brother’s financial matters. Lastly Mr. Smith helped immensely after my brother died with both probate court and the bank. I trust him for four reasons. First he spoke succinctly. Secondly he acted promptly. For example he answered the court’s 20 plus financial questions in less than 30 minutes. Smith did not say this is what we need to do. No. He just performed immediately. Third he did not present arrogance. He never implied that he was smarter than the system. Fourth Mr. Smith led in a good clean manner. He was professional but reassuring. Albert Allen Smith has an ease and a command at the same time. Again I unequivocally give him my highest grade.

Mr. Smith handled a personal injury case for my daughter with outstanding skill and professionalism. While driving to work, my daughter was hit by a truck that drove left of center. The truck company tried to stall proceedings and deny liability. Mr. Smith knew how to cut through the red tape and get things done. This accident was the biggest legal issue my family had ever faced, and thanks to Mr. Smith, had a very positive outcome. Mr. Smith is truly caring and has outstanding intellect, knowledge and skill that made all the difference.

I had never been injured on the job and had NO knowledge about worker's compensation claims. I contacted Mr. Walwyn randomly after an internet search for attorneys in my area and I believe that I hit the jackpot by hiring him. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable, but he and his staff were professional and very polite. They took the time to educate me and kept me informed every step of the way through my entire ordeal. Just knowing he was there for me and truly had my best interests in mind provided me with a great deal of peace during this, otherwise, nerve wracking time. He was successful in obtaining a settlement for me in a short amount of time, and his fee was reasonable. Hopefully I will not need his services again, but if I ever find myself in that situation I know that I will be treated fairly and with respect. I would definitely recommend Mr. Walwyn to anyone in need of an attorney for a worker's compensation claim.

My experience with hiring Attorney Carmen Ware was great. She was always available and she took on my case when larger law firms were advising me that I did not have a case worth pursuing. The outcome of my case was great and that was achieved due to hiring Attorney Care Ware.

I hired Tim to represent me on a work comp case that was actually a re-injury from a work injury a few years prior. No one in the area wanted to take on the huge organization that I worked for, except Tim. Hopefully I won't need his services again, but if I do, I wouldn't hesitate to give him a call. He's a one man team and I likes that so much! He was always available via pvone/tect/email and responded promptly.

What a Workers’ Compensation Lawyer Can Do for You

A workers’ compensation lawyer specializes in helping employees who are injured or become ill as a result of their job to receive the benefits they are entitled to under workers' compensation laws. These lawyers represent injured workers in claims for medical benefits, wage replacement, and other compensation related to workplace injuries or illnesses. They also help when claims are denied, benefits are delayed, or disputes arise with the employer or the insurance company.

Whether you've been injured on the job, developed an occupational illness, or are dealing with a denied workers' compensation claim, a workers’ compensation lawyer can help you navigate the claims process and ensure you receive the full benefits you deserve.

When Should I Hire a Workers' Compensation Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a workers' compensation lawyer in several situations, especially when complications arise during the claims process or when your rights as an injured worker are being challenged. Some common reasons to hire a workers' compensation lawyer include:

  • Claim denial: If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, a lawyer can help you appeal the decision and represent you in hearings or litigation.
  • Inadequate benefits: If the insurance company offers you a settlement that doesn’t cover your medical expenses, lost wages, or other damages, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf for a fair amount.
  • Delay in receiving benefits: If your benefits are being delayed, a lawyer can help expedite the process to ensure you receive timely compensation.
  • Permanent disability: If your injury leads to permanent disability (partial or total), a lawyer can help you navigate the more complex process of securing long-term benefits.
  • Retaliation by employer: If your employer retaliates against you for filing a workers' compensation claim (e.g., by firing or demoting you), a lawyer can protect your rights and pursue legal action.
  • Third-party liability: If a third party (e.g., a contractor or equipment manufacturer) was responsible for your injury, a lawyer can help you pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
  • Pre-existing conditions: If your employer or the insurance company claims that your injury is related to a pre-existing condition, a lawyer can help you present evidence showing that the injury was work-related.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can prevent delays, avoid mistakes, and ensure you receive all the benefits you’re entitled to under workers' compensation law.

What Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Do?

A workers' compensation lawyer provides a range of legal services to injured workers, ensuring that they receive the benefits they deserve. Their tasks often include:

  • Filing claims: Helping injured workers prepare and file their workers' compensation claims to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
  • Appealing denied claims: Representing workers whose claims have been denied and guiding them through the appeals process, including hearings and court appearances.
  • Negotiating settlements: Negotiating with insurance companies to secure fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
  • Handling disputes: Resolving disputes between the injured worker, the employer, and the insurance company regarding the amount of compensation or the nature of the injury.
  • Coordinating medical evidence: Gathering and presenting medical records, expert testimony, and other evidence to support the workers' compensation claim.
  • Advocating for benefits: Ensuring that injured workers receive all the benefits they’re entitled to, including temporary or permanent disability benefits, vocational rehabilitation, and medical treatment.
  • Filing third-party lawsuits: In cases where a third party is responsible for the injury, a workers' compensation lawyer may also pursue a personal injury lawsuit to recover additional damages.

How Are Workers’ Compensation Lawyers Paid?

Workers' compensation lawyers typically charge a contingency fee, meaning they only get paid if they successfully recover benefits for you. This fee is usually a percentage of the benefits awarded, and the specific percentage is often regulated by state law. Here's how it generally works:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer's fee is typically between 15% and 25% of the total benefits awarded to you. You don’t have to pay any upfront legal fees, and the lawyer’s fee comes out of the settlement or benefit award.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t recover any benefits for you, you generally don’t have to pay for their services.
  • State regulations on fees: Many states cap the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge, and some states require the fee to be approved by the workers' compensation board or judge.

Be sure to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a workers' compensation lawyer typically depends on the contingency fee arrangement, meaning the lawyer’s fee will be a percentage of the benefits you receive. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fees: Most workers' compensation lawyers charge between 15% and 25% of the total settlement or benefits awarded. For example, if you receive $50,000 in benefits, the lawyer’s fee would range from $7,500 to $12,500.
  • State regulations: Some states limit the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge. In these cases, the fee is usually capped, often at 20% to 25%, depending on state law.
  • Additional costs: Some lawyers may charge for out-of-pocket expenses, such as filing fees, medical records retrieval, and expert witness testimony, though these costs are typically deducted from the settlement after the case is won.

You should always ask for a clear explanation of fees and potential additional costs during your consultation so you understand the financial arrangement.

Top Questions to Ask a Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Before hiring a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with workers' compensation cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your injury is severe or the case involves disputes.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and whether there are any additional costs you need to be aware of.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes.
  4. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Find out if the lawyer has experience dealing with cases involving similar injuries or disputes, such as denied claims or permanent disability.
  5. How long will the process take?
    While it’s difficult to predict an exact timeline, the lawyer should be able to provide a general estimate based on their experience with similar cases.
  6. Will you personally handle my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case. Make sure you know who will be working on your claim.

How to Check the Credibility of a Workers' Compensation Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable workers' compensation lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing, with no disciplinary actions against them.
  • Look for workers' compensation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in workers' compensation law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s expertise and service.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience in workers' compensation cases.
  • Check for professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the Workers' Injury Law & Advocacy Group (WILG) or local bar association committees on workers' compensation can indicate the lawyer’s commitment to this area of law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most out of your first consultation with a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Accident report or incident documentation: Bring any documentation related to your workplace injury or illness, including accident reports or notifications to your employer.
  • Medical records: Provide copies of medical records, including treatment notes, doctor’s reports, and any information related to your injury or condition.
  • Employer correspondence: Bring any letters, emails, or forms related to your claim from your employer or the workers' compensation insurance company.
  • Wage and benefits information: Provide information on your wages, benefits, and any lost income due to the injury.
  • List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the process, costs, and what to expect moving forward.
  • Timeline of events: Prepare a timeline of the incident, your injury, and any medical treatment or communication with your employer and the insurance company.

Being well-prepared for your consultation will allow the lawyer to assess your case more effectively and provide you with the best possible legal advice.
