Ms. Wyatt fought hard for me and kept me informed and ultimately got me an excellent settlement. I would definitely recommend her to anyone involved in a commercial vehicle accident or work related injury accident.

Justin's office represented my parents after a very serious car accident caused by another party. Both of my parents were injured, with my mothers injuries being very serious. This was of course an incredibly difficult time for my entire family. I asked several friends to help me find good representation and luckily was referred to Justin. He was very patient and kind when dealing with them from the first meeting. My father is not a man to trust a lawyer, and was not in favor of hiring an attorney, but there came a point where we were unable to get mandatory care for my mother due to the medicare and insurance company regulations. Justin's services were retained at this time and he resolved the issue immediately. From that time forward, his office handled the insurance companies, medicare and the facilities that provided care to my mother for over seven months. He was so fair and caring that even Daddy grew to be very fond of him. I would highly recommend Justin to anyone in need of a lawyer.

I want to personally thank The Schafer Law Firm for their diligent work in my grandmother's eviction case!! Her property management company tried to throw a 93 year old woman out of her own home for making viable and valid complaints, and luckily my friend referred me to him. David Schafer wasted no time getting to work taking care of her and my family’s needs! I was already stressed out as a single mom taking care of this while completing my last semester of college to earn my bachelors degree, and Schafer certainly took this stress off of me! I will always be grateful to The Schafer Law Firm and will utilize his services when needed and will continue to refer to ALL my family and friends!

I can't say enough good things about Bryan Orihel!
Bryan recently represented me in a trespassing case where I was wrongfully arrested, and I’m thrilled to say he got it completely dismissed. From start to finish, Bryan was professional, attentive, and incredibly skilled.
He took the time to truly understand my case and kept me informed every step of the way. His knowledge of the law and attention to detail were beyond impressive. What really stood out to me was how much he genuinely cared about my situation and fought for the best possible outcome.
Thanks to Bryan, a stressful chapter in my life is behind me, and I couldn't be more grateful.
If you’re looking for a lawyer who’s not only great at what they do but also has your back 100%, Bryan Orihel is the one to call. Highly recommend!

If I could give a 10-star review, I would. I was facing a very delicate case and wasn’t feeling confident with my previous attorney. I decided to contact Shawn Brown Law Firm and met with Attorney Daphne Pereti. Her experience and confidence immediately gave me peace of mind. Thanks to her efforts, my case was dismissed. I highly recommend this firm, but most importantly, Daphne. Her dedication shows and is the epitome of “Actions speak louder than words.” This was the best investment I’ve ever made. I cannot thank Daphne and Aaron or recommend them enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I can't say enough great things about Amanda and Brandon. When other law firms did not want to take my case they stepped up and won BIG! I won't name the insurance company that was giving me a hard time, but wow did they give me a hard time after their client hit me while I was working. Their staff was so disrespectful and just when I was about to lose hope Amanda and Brandon came to the rescue. They were amazing but overall professional and patient. I wish I could give me them a million stars🙂. Look no where else this is the law firm to choose.

Extremely rude. I made an appointment with anticipation, I took the day off of work to be there on time because it’d have had been about a 45 minute trip. One of the attorneys called me about an hour before my appointment, as we were driving towards their office. After we had already paid for a baby sitter. She told us that she was going to give us the appointment via phone. She asked if it was ok? I said well I took the day off. To which she replied” it’ll be more efficient over the phone “. Well she told us she was going to call us at 1pm after waiting for 24 minutes on her phone call I decided to call to check on my appointment. She answered like if nothing had happened. So I explained my case she told me “there’s nothing we can do for you just go outside the country for 10 years, do it the right way” then as I was saying “thank you for the consultation and your time” she hung up on me in the middle of the sentence. Wasn’t expecting such a rude person. Terrible experience

Excelente bufete de abogados para cualquier tema migratorio. Traté con varios de ellos ya que ellos llevaron mi caso cuando aplique para la residencia (Faye Kolly y Claudia Baellow), y también cuando apliqué para la ciudadanía (Claudia Baellow y Linda Garcia)
Jamás tuve un problema o diferencia con ellas. Contestaron todas mis preguntas, llamadas, correos electrónicos y demás. Aún cuando pregunté lo mismo varias veces. Aún cuando se me olvidaron cosas que ya me habían dicho, etc, etc. Toda la comunicación puede ser en español con ellas si es necesario. O en ambos idiomas.
Las he recomendado con toda confianza a varias amistades y familiares para sus preguntas y trámites migratorios. Hasta las he recomendado a extraños que preguntan "alguien sabe de algún abogado de migración...".

I HIGHLY Recommend Attorney Zachary O'Neal Luce. His Firm and Staff are very patient and professional. I was in a terrible auto accident that destroyed my GMC Yukon. We were luck to survive the crash. I suffered some injuries and was referred to outstanding doctors and rehabilitation that got me back on my feet again. I was able to recover and get back to normal life within a relatively short period after the accident. I cannot say enough about Mr. Luce and the way his Firm attended to my every need to include winning my case. The large settlement I received was nice but I feel it's secondary to the way I was treated by Mr. Luce and the Firm during this difficult time in my life. It's hard to say how important that part is during difficult times and hard to put a price on great customer service and compassion.

Zach Luce is currently handling our auto accident case. I was referred to him by a family member who had a wonderful experience with him, and after doing my research I decided to select him and his firm DLG Luce.
My case is not one that is going result in a million dollar verdict, but from our first conversation over the phone I could tell that he genuinely cared to help me and my sister receive the best results, regardless of the amount of money he will end up making. He immediately got me in touch with the right care providers and handled my hospital bills. He gave me all the direction I needed on what to tell the insurance companies so they wouldn't trick me into giving them a statement and has been in direct communication with them on my behalf ever since.
His team is also very helpful and they never make me feel like I am bothering them or act too busy to help me out.
Mr. Luce has prepared me for what is to come and I feel very comfortable knowing that he is not afraid to go to trial if necessary. I trust his judgment because everything he has suggested so far has turned out better than I expected.
Hiring an attorney was an overwhelming thought for me when I had my accident. My sister also had no idea what to do because she lives in Mexico and is not familiar with the insurance system and the scams we would have encountered had we not hired an attorney and handled it ourselves. Mr. Luce and his team communicate with my sister (they are all bilingual!) to keep her updated on the status of the case, even though she is in another country.
I think a lot of people are scared to hire an attorney to handle their case because they don't know what to expect. All I can say is that after working with other attorneys for different types of cases I finally understand WHY it is important to stand up for yourself and having Zach Luce on your side certainly gives you the upper hand.
Don't be fooled by the large firms you see on tv. They will not be able to show you the amount of attention and care that you will get with Zach Luce at DLG Luce Salazar.

I have never needed to look for a lawyer and when I did, I called one on my own and one a good friend of mine referred to me, the choice after talking to both was clear and easy. After speaking to Mr. Luce on the phone he was very sympathetic to my health and came to my home and spoke to me and explained everything in detail of what was to happen or be expected. He even went so far as to ask if i needed anything prior to his visit and after, as i could not drive due to my physical condition at the time. Mr. Luce was very courteous and not overbearing or pushy, he was very understanding and made no attempt to pressure me into hiring him at all. The time my case played out, was a long waiting game and he was very good at keeping me informed and explaining in detail what was going on. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case and the way it was handle by himself and his staff. If for some reason I ever needed a lawyer in the future, i would not hesitate to go with Mr. Zach Luce, and would refer him to anyone I know who may be in need of a lawyer.

It’s hard to write a review that encompasses the kind of wonderful person and professional Michelle is.
Michelle handled a case for my then 9-year son that came to her just weeks before the absolute statute of limitations was to expire. I believe we filed it about 43 minutes before the statute of limitations actually expired. I had originally reached out to a non-profit, due to the circumstances of the case, and they found me Michelle since they needed someone “on the ground.”
I was nervous before our first meeting. I was nervous a medical malpractice attorney would be so “out for blood” that they would forget there was a child in the middle of this. My fears could not have been more unfounded. Michelle was professional, caring, and kept my son at the center.
Michelle’s professionalism extends past her interactions with clients. She is well respected among defense attorneys and treats individuals with respect, recognizing the stress of a lawsuit on everyone involved, greatly diminishing what can be so incredibly adversarial and stressful.
In the middle of the case my son tragically died unexpectedly due to reasons completely unrelated to the suit. His death diminished the strength of our case under Texas law dramatically, but Michelle said she would keep working if I wanted her to. The case was resolved to my satisfaction due to her talents as an attorney, as well as the respect she has from defense attorneys, and even the doctors she litigates against, for her consciousness and strong ethics.
The world lost an incredible young man when my son died at 11. Michelle was able to still get me an outcome that everyone, even the defense, agrees will help continue the legacy of this amazing little boy, taking nothing for herself, and has become a life-long friend.

I have Mr. Foster as my Attorney. My Lawsuit isn't over yet, but he has been right on top of the matter from Day one! He is a very hard working and busy Man. He might not always talk to me personally, but does make the time to when I request him too! His office staff is very kind, and keeps me up to date! I'm sad to see some don't feel the same as I do. He is worth taking on as anyone's Attorney!!! I feel my case is in the best hands it could be. I have high faith in him and his wonderful staff!

Thank God for Mr. Foster! I had a very bad and unfounded criminal case and Mr. Foster saved my freedom. From the moment he took my case, he worked hard to get it resolved. He is smart and seems to really know the law. I could call him day or night and even on the weekends and he would return my call by the next day. He even answered a text I sent him at 10:30pm on a weekend. He is just the best and I would not be a free man without him.

What a Wrongful Death Lawyer Can Do for You
A wrongful death lawyer specializes in representing families who have lost a loved one due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another person or entity. These lawyers help families seek compensation for the emotional and financial losses associated with the untimely death of a loved one, including medical bills, funeral expenses, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering. Wrongful death claims can arise from various situations, including car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and criminal actions.
If you have lost a family member due to someone else’s wrongful actions, a wrongful death lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and pursue justice on behalf of your loved one.
When Should I Hire a Wrongful Death Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a wrongful death lawyer if a loved one has died as a result of someone else’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional harm. Some common reasons to hire a wrongful death lawyer include:
- Car accidents: If a loved one was killed in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident caused by another driver’s negligence (e.g., reckless driving, DUI, or distracted driving), a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim.
- Medical malpractice: If a loved one died due to medical negligence, such as a misdiagnosis, surgical error, or medication mistake, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue compensation from the healthcare provider.
- Workplace accidents: If your loved one died in a workplace accident or due to unsafe working conditions, you may be entitled to compensation from the employer or third parties responsible for the unsafe conditions.
- Defective products: If a defective product caused your loved one’s death, a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim against the manufacturer or distributor of the product.
- Criminal actions: If your loved one was the victim of a criminal act, such as homicide or assault, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue a civil claim for damages, even if a criminal case is also ongoing.
- Nursing home negligence: If an elderly loved one died due to neglect or abuse in a nursing home, a lawyer can help you hold the facility accountable for their wrongful actions.
Hiring a wrongful death lawyer soon after the incident ensures that important evidence is preserved and that you can meet any legal deadlines for filing a claim.
What Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Do?
A wrongful death lawyer provides a wide range of services to help families navigate the legal complexities of a wrongful death claim and seek compensation for their losses. Their responsibilities often include:
- Investigating the death: Conducting a thorough investigation of the circumstances leading to your loved one’s death, gathering evidence such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements.
- Establishing liability: Identifying who is legally responsible for your loved one’s death, whether it’s an individual, company, or government entity, and building a case showing how their negligence or wrongful actions caused the death.
- Calculating damages: Helping you determine the full extent of your financial and emotional losses, including funeral expenses, medical bills, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering.
- Filing a wrongful death claim: Preparing and filing the necessary legal documents to initiate a wrongful death lawsuit within the statute of limitations in your state.
- Negotiating settlements: Working with the responsible party’s insurance company or legal team to negotiate a fair settlement for your losses.
- Representing you in court: If a settlement cannot be reached, representing you in court by presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
- Handling legal deadlines: Ensuring that all legal filings are completed within the deadlines set by your state’s statute of limitations for wrongful death cases.
How Are Wrongful Death Lawyers Paid?
Wrongful death lawyers typically work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Here’s how it generally works:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is usually a percentage of the total settlement or damages awarded, typically ranging from 25% to 40%. You won’t have to pay any upfront fees, and the lawyer only gets paid if they successfully recover compensation for you.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer does not win or settle your case, you generally won’t owe them any legal fees.
- Case expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, you may also be responsible for reimbursing the lawyer for case-related expenses, such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs. These expenses are typically deducted from the settlement or award.
It’s essential to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to ensure you understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a wrongful death lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee structure, meaning you only pay if the lawyer recovers compensation for you. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fee percentage: Most wrongful death lawyers charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or court award. For example, if you receive a $500,000 settlement and the lawyer’s fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $165,000, and you would keep the remaining $335,000.
- Case expenses: In addition to the lawyer’s fee, expenses such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs may be deducted from the settlement or award. These expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.
Make sure to ask your lawyer for a clear explanation of their fees and case-related expenses before proceeding with your wrongful death claim.
Top Questions to Ask a Wrongful Death Lawyer
Before hiring a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and resources to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with wrongful death cases?
Ensure the lawyer has successfully handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s medical malpractice, car accidents, or workplace deaths. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify the lawyer’s contingency fee percentage and any additional costs, such as case expenses, that you may be responsible for. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges that could affect the outcome. -
How long will the process take?
Wrongful death cases can take time to resolve, so ask how long the lawyer expects the process to last, from filing the claim to reaching a settlement or going to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court. -
What types of damages can I recover?
Ask the lawyer to explain the types of compensation you may be entitled to, such as medical bills, funeral expenses, loss of income, and emotional suffering.
How to Check the Credibility of a Wrongful Death Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable wrongful death lawyer, take the following 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 to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for wrongful death experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in wrongful death cases and have successfully handled cases like 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 professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on wrongful death cases.
- Check for certifications or memberships: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) or local bar associations can indicate the lawyer’s dedication to wrongful death and personal injury law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Death certificate: Bring a copy of your loved one’s death certificate, as this is a key document in wrongful death cases.
- Medical records: If applicable, bring your loved one’s medical records, autopsy reports, or any documentation of their medical care leading up to their death.
- Accident or incident reports: If the wrongful death resulted from an accident, bring any police reports, accident reports, or workplace incident reports.
- Financial records: Provide documentation of your loved one’s income, benefits, and financial contributions to the family to help calculate economic damages.
- Correspondence: Bring any communication you’ve had with the responsible party, their insurance company, or legal representatives.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions for the lawyer about the legal process, potential outcomes, and fees.
- Timeline of events: Be ready to provide a clear timeline of the events leading up to and following your loved one’s death.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice.
