I contacted Paul Finizio and the Finizio Law Group after a recommendation from a close friend. Paul answered the phone quickly, and, after amiable introductions, we scheduled a time to discuss my personal injury and the role he and the Finizio Law Group could play if I elect their services. I have never filed a claim of personal injury. I was averse to the idea, because, as a college student, I worried that filing a claim would complicate my focus on scholastic endeavors. After talking with my parents, I moved forward with the Finizio Law Group. My worries were misplaced. The team at the Finizio Law Group had conducted themselves efficiently and routinely detailed the progress of my claim despite instances in which contacting me was difficult. Sending documents to them was easy, because the accepted various forms of communication. In terms of communication, I was not the greatest client; however, Paul always remained kind and always motivated me with each call. He supported me during a time in my life in which the injury obscured the path I chose to follow to my future. I appreciated the fact that I could take the backseat while Paul filed claims and litigated, because my focused myself on adapting to the changes that occurred and finding my direction again. I will always thank Paul and the team, because their work has added to the security of my future and family’s future. There are few ways to express my gratitude for that.

I recently contacted Paul Finizio to consult with me on a current case. He made time in his busy schedule to meet with me ASAP and he took the time to explain the legal options that were available to me. Paul is a man of integrity, a man of principle and a man of compassion. I highly recommend him as an attorney.

Paul is thorough, knowledgeable, and committed to the best interest of his client. He has never failed to respond immediately and knowledgeably to my needs and requests. He has met and exceeded my expectations as client in a personal injury case. I trust Paul and I will work with him again if the need arises and highly recommend him to others.

Paul and Nathalie(his paralegal) were so helpful with my case, a car accident where I was not at fault. I called them the day I got in the accident and from that point forward, Nathalie handled everything from top to bottom including talking with the insurance companies and negotiating medical bills and helping me with appointments. The day I got in the accident it was a total nightmare but Nathalie and Paul made everything so much less stressful than I thought it would be. Any time I needed an update on the case, Paul and Nathalie would always provide it for me. The case took a while to settle thanks to the insurance company (not naming names) but Paul and Nathalie came to mediation with me, helped me stay relaxed and gave me reassurance throughout the entire process. I am happy with the way everything turned out and if you are looking for true professionalism and diligence in your case I would highly recommend using this office. Thank you again!

This is the last firm I would recommend anyone to call after an accident! I was hit head-on by a drunk driver in Miami and referred to Paul Finizio of Finizio & Finizio Law in Fort Lauderdale by attorney, Chris Salamone (former partner of attorney, Scott Rothstein). This turned out to be a decision so heavily regretted! Paul Finizio missed several of my own court appearances, which was very concerning! One court date, he even went so far as to send an attorney that was not even from his firm but was just a casual friend of his, who did not know anything about my case or the drunk driver who hit me head-on, to show up in his place. I found this to be very odd at my own court hearing when I had expected my own attorney to be there! I had also just had a very serious surgery so had really wanted him to there; not some stranger who knew nothing of my case at all. While the first part of my personal injury case settled quickly only because I (MYSELF) requested BMW preserve the recorded onstar confession of the drunk driver admitting to being drunk at the time of hitting my vehicle, my case with Finizio and Finizio Law was ongoing due to my UM (UnderInsured Motorist) Policy and a potential Bad Faith Claim. Finizio & Finizio Law continued to work on the UM portion of my case as I underwent more than 20 (twenty) surgical procedures, including a life-threatening internal bleeding situation, only to find out that my medical records that I had been zealously forwarding to my law firm after every procedure with a spreadsheet of all appointments were NEVER ever sent to my insurance adjuster over the last two (2) years! While all my email correspondences with Finizio Law confirmed that they were in communication with USAA all this entire time (my insurance company), it was not until I decided to call USAA myself last week that I learned that Finizio & Finizio Law, under the supervision of Paul Finizio, has not been in contact with USAA even ONCE in 2018 and I learned this at the end of November of 2018 and recorded the phone call with two-party consent. But wait- there's more!! USAA actually closed my case in March 2018 due to "Lack of Attorney Response" and when I asked my lawyer, Finizio claims to not have even known it was closed! (Yet, their emails all year said they were in touch with my adjuster all year (which of course I have saved and documentatee)... and then I spoke to my insurance adjuster who confirmed he had not spoken or received any mail, fax, phone or email correspondence (not even ONCE) from my lawyer or firm this year (2018)!! Seems they had mislead me and mis-informed me from the truth all year! Then, I asked Finizio if there was some kind of prejudice or bias because of the prior incident in which I asked to communicate only with a female in his office), to learn why I, as a client, had been treated so negligently. I'm still waiting for that answer. As a female, I'd especially warn clients to steer VERY clear from this law firm. This is not a safe or efficient law office that I would recommend anyone to go to. They often take weeks to respond to any call or emails, even when "URGENT" in the subject line, which goes completely against Florida Bar's statutes on how attorneys should communicate with active clients (The Florida Bar's website clearly states that your attorney must respond within 48 hours and if they don't, they must respond in writing within 7 days WHY they didn't! Not professional, efficient or ethical! Be warned!! Choose a different firm!

I can't believe how efficient he was. Mr. Finizio was able to resolve my case better than I initially hoped for. I felt helpless until I hired him, then I knew everything was going to be ok. If you need a lawyer, he's your guy!

Paul was wonderful when a family member needed an attorney. He immediately knew what to do for us, kept us informed every step of the way, and got a great result. I was also really impressed by how quickly he could assess a situation, make judgments about the people involved, and draw on what is clearly a ton of experience. He is a great listener and he always returned our calls!

Paul Finizio recently finished a case for us that had both criminal and civil elements to it. Helped us right a great wrong that had been done to us. We came away very satisfied with his work and would reach out to him again. Top notch lawyer.

I was unable to get anywhere on my own for years with my case so I when to Mr Finizio. He was able to persuade the opposing party to agree to my terms. He is an amazing negotiator and I am extremely impressed with how professional he was and how quickly he was able to handle my case. This could have dragged out for years and I could have incurred a huge bill but that is not at all what happened. He is really there to help his clients and make sure they get the best treatment by everyone involved. I am grateful that he is the one that I chose to go to for help.

Paul Finizio has been a blessing to our company, whom he represented on several occasions in connection with business transactions. He makes himself available during and after work hours to explain the legal process and will make sure that our best interest always comes first, trying to minimize legal traps and opting for faster, creative resolutions. It is a pleasure to walk around the court building with Paul as you can sense the high level of respect coming from his fellow attorneys and judges.

Speaks Spanish, Italian and gets by in Portuguese too - wow! Helped me with my accident and did a really good job. He is smooth, articulate, quick and persuasive. I would recommend him.

Knowledgeable, informed, persuasive and skilled. Paul Finizio is a great lawyer and I would highly recommend him. I hired him to help me with an auto accident.
