Obviously when you go into a situation where you need this service in your life, you are going to have unreal stress and doubts, but Marc and Heidi were absolute pros and came through in ways I never could have imagined. My husband was proven innocent and we can continue our lives because of their years of experience and expertise. If you know you are innocent you cannot get a better team to prove it than Perlet and Shiner.
P.s. Janine is the unsung hero of this crew! She keeps the gears moving and you should always communicate through her if you can!

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!

I have known Rand Hoch for over 16 years. I have used him as a Private Mediator when I handled defense cases for 3 years and claimant's cases for the past 13 years. He always does a great job explaining the law to the claimants. He is a former Judge of Compensation Claims so he has extensive experience with trials. He relates well with claimants. He works hard and will stay late if necessary to help the parties reach a resolution. I highly recommend Rand Hoch as a Mediator.

Rand was so very helpful to me in my attempt to get my homestead issues resolved. He is truly well connected and knowledgeable in local legal processes. He guided me towards a course of action that resulted in a quick, not litigious outcome. I would suggest him as a consultant or mediator who is well connected and knowledgeable, and with whom you will feel like you are being well represented by a trusted advisor.

Mr. Thompson took on our case that most lawyers would have never touched. Phil stayed in constant contact with us keeping us up to date on any new developments in the case. Explained the entire process, letting us know our options. Phil treated us like we were family. I hope that I will not need a lawyer in the near future, however if I do I will call Philip Thompson

I have known Mr. Loftin for six years now. I first encountered him while working as legal secretary at a Law Firm where he practiced. I found him to be astute, respectful and dedicated to his work. Who would have known that I would one day have to call on him for his services. My daughter had an issue on her job and was wrongfully terminated and denied Unemployment Compensation. Mr. Loftin was the first person I called. He listened. He responded promptly and gave us expert advice on how to proceed. After our hearing, my daughter received a letter in the mail stating that the decision to deny benefits had been reversed. I am grateful for the advice and responsiveness that I received from Mr. Loftin and I would hire and recommend him again and again.

Consultation on complicated worker's comp case. Ms. Waterman listened carefully to each aspect, addressed each and every angle for both current and future impact, and advised different avenues as different choices could be made. I was left feeling deeply well-informed, and truly, confident that I could deal with my situation well as it stands now--and confident that I could turn to Ms. Waterman for powerful professional service if need be. I would highly recommend her office to anyone in need of her specialized services.

I would like to start off by saying that this is the first time I’ve ever needed a lawyer. Needless to say I was nervous, anxious, and didn’t even know which way to turn. I got very lucky that Nicholas C. Maniotis and paralegal Jo Hunerberg were assigned to my case. Everything was handled swiftly and professionally. They also made sure I was fully aware and completely understood what was going on every step of the way. I am extremely satisfied and forever grateful that such a scary experience turned into such a positive one. Thank you again Nicolas! I will definitely be recommending you to anyone who needs it for sure!

I cannot say enough good things about Gabriel Isasi and the incredible team at Lytal and Reiter! From start to finish, they provided exceptional legal expertise, guidance, and support. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication were evident in every step of the process. Gabriel Isasi always took the time to explain everything clearly and kept me informed throughout, making sure I fully understood my options. More importantly, he cared about me as a client and my injuries.
The entire team was responsive, compassionate, and worked tirelessly to ensure a positive outcome for my case. I felt confident and reassured knowing I was in such capable hands. If you're looking for a top-notch attorney who truly cares about their clients and delivers outstanding results, look no further than Gabriel Isasi and his team. I highly recommend them!

Mr A Casas and his wonderful team did an exceptional job on my and my friends' cases, which was not an easy task.
The story goes on. I had a previous attorney who was terrible. I moved on with Mr Alex Casas, and he handled the whole case with a professionalism that is rarely seen in the legal world of personal injury. Mr. Alex Casas always calls you back and keeps you up to date about what is going on.
Do not waste your time with other firms. Just go to Casas Law.

I wouldn't let them draw up a simple power of attorney for me. I called them because they are a big firm I wanted to file suit against a local hospital for miss diagnosing me costing me months of treatment and my cancer to spread and become more aggressive. They said I didn't have a case. I wrote 50 letters and mailed them to 50 different attorneys explaining what this particular hospital did. One attorney responded. A young Lady in Georgia that was also licenced in Florida. She said you have a great case with everything backed up in writing. I would like to handle the case for you. She filed suit for me I never had to go to court or be disposed and she called me in less than a year and said we have a settlement offer from the Hospital and the doctor. My part would have been 275 thousand after she got her part. I said I'm not going to settle for that she said I knew you wouldn't because we talked about what you wanted when we first met. She said I declined it as soon as their attorney called me and I told them you wanted to go to court and pled your case to a jury to decide the amount of suffering they caused you. I thanked her the following week she called me and said they made another offer to keep it out of court. I asked her what the offer was and what my part would be. I settled for a cool 525 thousand dollars as my part she got a total of almost a million dollars on a case these attorneys said wasn't worth it. I still have cancer however I'm getting treatment and I was able to pay off all my debts including my home and set up a trust so my son would have money when I die. I would never call these people again.

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.

- 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:
-
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. -
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. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes. -
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. -
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. -
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.
