Sara was able to coordinate with the insurance and medical records to get my case done. The insurance had been horrible to work with. She made it all so much easier. Excellent communication along the way. Thank you Sara

Sara was everything that I needed in an Attorney. I contacted her because the Insurance Company was pushing me to close a claim. I was having problems with my left side of my body, due to an automobile accident and the Dr.s could not locate the problem. During a consult with Sara, she suggested I go to the Spine Clinic, and she set up an appointment for me. At the appointment they found what was causing the problem and within 45 days I was having surgery and it resolved my problem. Sarah closed up with the Insurance Company's and all the costs related to the accident and surgery were taken care of. Sara did all the work and we were blessed by having her as our advocate. Thank you very much Sara!

When my insurance company was not returning my calls I wasn’t sure what to do. I was injured in an auto collision, the other driver was uninsured. I thought my insurance company was on my side, I was wrong. As soon as I spoke with Sara at GLP Attorneys I felt better. Sara and her team took my case and they handled everything. It’s the best call I’ve ever made. Suddenly the insurance company was responding to her and her team. They got me a settlement that I would never have achieved on my own. If you are thinking of calling an attorney I highly recommend Sara at GLP. I recommend her to all my friends and family and will continue to do so because she really cares. I was never a person who thought I needed to seek legal counsel, but the when insurance company doesn’t return or answer your calls what do you do? You call Sara that’s what! Everything will be taken care of and explained throughout the process. Thank you Sara and GLP for your service!

I had called many attorney's and none would take my case due to so many complications. I then called Craig Swapp and they told me to come in. I met with Roger Ermola and he was happy to help with no hesitation. With the help from Roger, J, and Laura I was pleased with a very fair award. Thank you Roger, J and Laura. Pam Saunders

When I first approached Mr. Gilbert to take my DUI case, he advised me that he typically doesn't do criminal law. However, upon my insistence he agreed to take my case. No only was I charged with a DUI, it had special circumstances that could have ended not so favorably for me. Mr. Gilbert not only did a full investigation, but also consulted with experts. Mr. Gilbert was able to reduce my DUI charge to a Negligence charge. Mr. Gilbert was professional, effective as well as making sure I knew how my decision to allegedly drink and drive could have had more dire consequences to not just me but to others. I recommend him with out hesitation and should you find yourself in a situation, criminal or not, where you need representation hire Mr. Gilbert!

Although I live out of Country, Bill took the time to research and interview a lawyer I required for a difficult business partnership issue. The Attorney he recommended has been excellent in numerous transactions and I owe each victory to Mr. Gilbert. I can only imagine the care and diligence he provides for his own clients. I greatly value his opinion and would recommend his service to any client in need of a devoted Barrister.

In my experiences working with Mr. Gilbert I came to understand that he is completely committed to providing the best legal care possible to his clients. Mr. Gilbert is a trustworthy attorney who routinely goes above and beyond the nine-to-five, setting high professional standards for himself and his staff but balancing those expectations with genuine care and compassion for his clients and their circumstances.

I have never had a lawyer before of this caliber. I'm a disabled Veteran and had run into so many road blocks. I was referred by another attorney who didn't handle Veterans Disability. Mr Farrell went above and beyond anything I expected. Most know Veterans Disability Benefits can be slow process Mr. Farrell I believe worked diligently on my case. It took some time but I received the compensation he felt was best for me and my situation. I could not be happier with the final results. I will highly recommend him to anyone who is in need of an attorney of his morals, values and ethics. Thank You Tom.

I hired Mr. Farrell on the recommendation of another of his clients. I couldn't have been happier. He was very compassionate with me and my child (who was also in the accident) but very aggressive and firm with the other side. I was very happy with the outcome and would and have highly recommended him!

I can not recommend Mary highly enough, if you have a case which has to go to court. Her presence in the courtroom alone, is worth the price of admission.

Ms. Schultz is “World Class" in terms of effective and experienced counsel. Especially on matters requiring local expertise and understanding the dynamics of the local court's personalities and processes. She knows exactly when to make a very pointed response to an argument - when bundled together all the traits you want from counsel (articulate, smart, tough, simply brilliant). Apart from professional expertise, she's extremely well rounded in a host of other ways that makes her a one of a kind attorney to be around.

No joke, this is the best lawyer you will ever see in a courtroom. Just brilliant. And it’s really fun to watch. I've worked with a number of attorneys, and been to court with attorneys in business litigations. I have seen Mary Schultz try cases off and on—a lot of lawyers and others in the court system come to watch when she’s there. Amazing presence. Never overdone. Not hard or demanding--She just gets people. You can tell she loves what she does, and who she represents. I can't convince Mary to represent me on our business matters, because she only wants to do medical cases now, but we're fans for life. Absolutely recommended. You’re going to trial? Without peer.

Mr. Lambrecht spent valuable time with me on the phone listening to my case and provided very helpful advice on how to deal with it. People who have not been trained on law may not know how things work in the legal world and therefore be at a loss or taken advantage of in trying to resolve legal issues. Mr. Lambrecht provided advice on what steps to take and what to watch out for. It was very helpful.

I greatly appreciate all that Bruce Lambrecht has done to grant me justice in my case. I believe professionals like him that take the time to take on cases such as mine; where the road to restitution is skewed and does not promise outstanding investment return, are the reason society is able to heal and prosper even with overwhelming political and institutional corruption.
Not many people such as Bruce could understand how matters such as this could derail someone's attention, energy, and success. Since Bruce's help I have been able to pull my grades up in Arizona State University as well as become affiliated with two on campus human rights organizations. I will also be graduating with my Bachelor's degree this May and feel that my struggles would have been ridiculous and further post-poned as they were being, if it had not been for Bruce. Not only was he attentive, thorough, and constantly working on my case, but even when I had felt overwhelmed and detached from the case he ensured full communication and promise to strive for everything I deserved. I will always be grateful and have thanked him numerous times for his relentless efforts.

Bruce took over my case after two other lawyers said I either had a limited chance of success on none at all.
Bruce's knowledge and preparation enabled us to forgo going to court and settled for a handsome amount.
I have referred Bruce to family and friends alike and will continue.

Dallas, Erek and his team were excellent. I had a case that was a misdemeanor and they had it reduced to a simple traffic infraction. That's almost unheard of. In fact, it saved my career. I believe 1% of cases like mine reach a Neg 2, so this is a huge win. If you're looking for a team of exceptional attorneys then Cooney Law is going to be your best option.

Some of the most deceitful and dishonest and anti-God Liberal attornies I have ever met. Who represent everything that is wrong with America. Completely lied in court, allowed their clients to give false testimonies repeatedly against a good Christian Father and real honorable man. If you are Republican or Christian or Jewish or Muslim or Buddhist… keep on shopping, they honor very few of the 10 Commandments or Precepts.
Interesting that you think you won something. So to represent liars and perjurers, and help to take away the opposing party’s children, and their gun rights… that’s you winning Cooney? You have “won” something? What is it? Maybe you win a one-way ticket to Hell for intentionally hurting a Man of faith who works for Jesus Christ. Looks like, you didn’t win ALL the cases. 😆
(3) of your trolls couldn’t put Humpty dumpty back together… You have law degrees? I hope she did not pay you for this? She never will now. I would’ve fired you yesterday for sure. She admitted to committing a felony gun violation in her written Testimony and FOUR of you didn’t see that! 😂👌🏼 Oh yah, good work Cooney!
Was that last attorney driving down the road while he represented her in court?! Zoom is so cool right? That was crazy. Taking a Court Zoom Call while driving, super professional. I am sure he represented her to the best of his ability. LMfAO 🤣

This office deserves all 5 stars, if not more. If there is a problem that you need solved in court, the amount of knowledge about litigation and the next steps of law and what to come is never an issue with this office. They take action and make everything look easy. I would personally like to leave a 5 star for attorney Meagan Bennett and her paralegal. very knowledgeable and a great team. THANK YOU!

I would truly recommend Keith Douglass and Associates to handle any legal issues that fall within their realm of expertise.
I have worked with Keith and Adele for almost 4 years on a very complex legal case. Their continued support and attention to detail has resulted in a very satisfying outcome for me and my family.
They always made me feel that my case was of the utmost importance and I believe I received the largest settlement possible because of their excellent efforts. Both Keith and Adele have the ability to explain how the complex legal system worked to me, and helped me to get through a very difficult time in my life.

Keith was great to work with as were his staff. After our initial consultation about my accident, I was given a clear explanation of Keith's strategy to get me compensation for my injury. He and his staff did a great job of working the strategy and keeping me informed of how my case was progressing. At the end of the process, I got a sizable check.
What really set Keith & his staff apart from other attorneys, in my opinion, was their ability to see me as a person and not just another case. Keith is a real person and treated me like a real person. It was really nice to talk to a lawyer and feel respected, understood, and appreciated! Keith is a great guy & he has a warm, understanding, helpful, and responsive staff.
I would totally recommend Keith & his entire firm to anyone who has been seriously wronged and needs legal help to ensure that justice is served.

Thanks for everything!!!!!

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.
