I had the privilege of working with Glen Klausman after I was involved in a motorcycle accident, and I can honestly say that he exceeded all my expectations. From the very beginning, Glen took the time to listen to my concerns and thoroughly explain the legal process. His professionalism and dedication to my case were evident in every interaction we had.
What really stood out to me was Glen's communication. He kept me informed at every step of the way, making sure I understood my options and what to expect. He was always available to answer my questions, which gave me peace of mind during a very stressful time.
Thanks to Glen’s expertise and commitment, my case was handled efficiently, and I was able to secure a favorable outcome. I highly recommend Glen Klausman to anyone in need of a skilled, compassionate personal injury lawyer. He truly cares about his clients and works tirelessly to get them the justice they deserve.

I recently got in a car accident at work at MCO airport. The cop refused to write a report, the guy left, my car was heavily damaged, I was injured & beyond upset. After calling another radio advertised firm, getting the run around and feeling somewhat confused, I called Glenn Klausman. Not only didhe take the call personally, but after speaking with him I felt more than confident I had made the right choice. When he said ,"When would you like to come to my office to sign the paperwork?" I felt a weight of burdened relief had been taken off my shoulder that goes beyond words.
He was readily accessible whenever I had a question and felt like he genuinely cared about my case. He negotiated my medical bills and got me a fair settlement in prompt manner. Highly recommend and 6*s!

Glen is such a genuine man. He stepped in when I fired my attorney and truly got my case settled promptly and professionally in a fraction of the time. His office staff are warm and friendly and they work hard to deliver results. I would recommend Klausman Law to family and friends! Kudos

Kim, my attorney has been brilliant throughout the whole proceedings, which at times have been arduous. He worked incredibly hard to achieve a very positive outcome despite the fact that I live in London (UK). The company is very professional, knowledgeable, patient and understanding which enhanced my overall customer experience.

I had a prior lawyer who never called back and I went weeks without hearing from them. I decided to change lawyers and a friend of mine told me Attorney Carolina Helped him. At Carolina Nunez’s law office, I was always kept in contact and received prompt responses. Attorney Carolina handled my accident case and helped me so much. Highly recommend anyone in Orlando for accidents to hire lawyer Carolina Nunez!

One of the most amazing practices I ever dealt with. Bill was very knowledgeable and helpful. Never had any issues reaching him or any issues with him not having an answer to any questions I had. He helped me and my family out tremendously. Highly recommend. If I can give another 5 stars I would. Office workers are very polite and pleasant also. Overall great experience.

To Mr. Bill and Team regarding my case aftermath:
I’d like to thank you from the bottom of my heart and helping me getting through a very rough time after my wreck.
The way you all handled my case with were patience, compassion, empathy, and attentiveness to all my needs, I can’t thank you enough. I felt nervous at first considering I’d never been through the experience but you made it smooth and easygoing and for someone lives miles away from family, you made a safe space.
I can’t thank you all enough for your time and I would recommend you a 10/10. If you need some help, PLEASE reach out to Bill and his team, you will not regret as I have not. If the situation arises, I know exactly who to call. Once again thank you all so much even when thank you just doesn’t even feel enough.

Mr. Tonelli represented me in a personal injury case where I was hit by an under-insured motorist. From the moment he took my case until the successful conclusion, he had a solid game plan, excellent communications, and was always one step ahead of the insurance company. Most of all, I always trusted his judgement which proved to be flawless at the end of the day. You can hire one of the big name TV lawyers but but you probably won't get the same level of personal service. Highest recommendations.

Marshall Adler was an excellent attorney in an odd situation. In the time of the pandemic, he was always reachable and professional - he always gave good advice and good guidance. I would, without hesitation, recommend him to family or friends, knowing they would have a knowledgeable attorney to take their situation to conclusion.

I found Mr Adler on AVVO and after reading nothing but 5 star reviews I contacted him about my case. He is very professional, no nonsense and got me results when a previous attorney did nothing in over a year's time. His reputation is well deserved and he was in contact with me every step of the way, quick to respond to questions and very direct with answers. I can say first hand that a client could have complete confidence in Mr Adler and his assistant Liz to fight for your rights, represent your case with integrity and compassion. By chance I spoke with a paralegal who knew Mr Adler and Liz from years ago, and couldn't say enough good things about them. She said I was truly in the best hands possible, and I can back that up. This is the attorney you want for your work comp case, bottom line you will be in the best hands in town. Thank you very much Marshall and Liz!

I have known Brett my entire life, Brett handled my wife's personal injury action 22 years with great results and no trial. I have referred clients and friends to him for years, and he just closed out my case with a great result even though the other side was under insured. I highly recommend him, he is quick to return calls and his service and knowledge is above par.

I hired Brett to handle two high end auto accident cases for me over a 24 month period. A 2015 Mercedes CLS and an Audi 2015 A7. Both handled well and professionally. He is very adept at diminished value claims in addition to representation. You get to talk to him directly instead of para legals and admin assistance. I appreciate that very much. He was recommended to me by one of the largest law firms in Orlando. If you have high end autos, I recommend Brett to assist you.

Brett Bressler just handled the diminished value claim on my 4 month old Acura TSX which was t-boned on the right passenger side. He came highly recommended by the body shop that repaired my car. Not really knowing much about diminished value, however, I figured the process would take months. Not so! After a quick damage analysis and appraisal, he submitted a demand letter to the counterparty's insurance and obtained the full amount demanded within 2-3 weeks. Brett also kept me fully informed at every step of the process. I would definitely recommend his services to anyone in need.

During the past week I have had the pleasure of speaking with Olivia Kronenberg a number times. I was hoping that with her help, to be able to find some answers regarding the death of my wife. She reviewed my case and informed me that she was unable to help me. One might wonder why in the world I would than give her so many stars. She is worth every one of them! She realized that even though my case had merit, it was not strong enough. Proving fault in dealing a death due to stage 4 cancer can be both time consuming and mentally challenging for a spouse. This is where Olivia was of most help. She informed me of how painful the process could be. Fighting the system isn't always the best route to take. Thank you Olivia for your insight.

My case was complicated and AJ did a great job in figuring out how to win. No one believed me when I told them what happened, but AJ did. He went out of his way to find a video from a business next door that supported my claim and got me the evidence I needed to succeed. I don't trust lawyers, but AJ was someone who listened to me, someone who told me how it is when we looked bad, and when we had a break in the case. This one on one attention made me feel that he really does want to help people and not just make a pay check. HIRE HIM if you want someone on your side.

Adam came highly recommended and I'm so grateful that I took that advice. I was in a serious auto accident and Adam has fought diligently against my own insurance company to obtain funds that were rightfully mine from the beginning. He responded to every phone call, message or question and hung in there for 8 years while we fought.

I hired Mr. Littman to help me with a motorcycle case. Other attorneys who specialized in motorcycle cases told me I did not have a case and would not represent me. Mr. Littman took my case, fought hard for me and I received the policy limits on the case. Mr. Littman excels in communicating with his clients, working hard for his clients and getting phenomenal results for his clients. He is the best PI attorney in Orlando in my humble opinion.

I hired this attorney, and I regret that decision. We parted ways because he was not responsive, and I gave him several times to make good of the situation.
His violated his client rights, more specifically the duties he has to me, his client the most important one being communication between attorney and client.

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.
