I ended up in emergency surgery after I was hit by a car while riding my mountain bike in a city park in Fort Lauderdale, FL on a Sunday morning at 9am. My right wrist and hand had bones sticking through the skin and the surgeon considered amputating my right hand but thankfully he was able to save it and I can use it for the most part. My surgeon recommended me hiring an attorney that I could trust because I would require more surgeries on my wrist and hand along with several months of occupational and physical therapy and he said someone would need to pay for all of this.
After speaking with a high school friend that still lives in Panama City about my condition and what my surgeon had said he recommended me calling Doug Dykes. Today, I’m very thankful that I listened to both my surgeon and my high school friend.
Once I spoke with Doug over the phone and explained what had happened to me, where I was, and what my surgeon had told me Doug was very patient while he explained what my options were and how he would address each issue, if I decided to use his law office. I am very pleased with the results and outcomes of my case and how Doug and his staff handled each and every aspect of my case. Doug and his staff were able to negotiate with between Geico, USAA, Humana-Tricare, the hospital, and various doctors’ offices about who was going to cover what. This allowed me to focus on therapy and getting back to my normal life.
Hopefully, I will never need a personal injury attorney again but if I ever do or if someone asks me for my advice I will definitely refer them to Doug Dykes.

As a resident of Alabama, I was on a business/vacation trip to Panama City, FL. We resided at a hotel where an accident down a flight of stairs occurred, while walking down to the beach with my son. The incident caused a good bit of injury to my left ankle. After undergoing surgery, medical bills, income loss due to absence, I decided it was best to speak to a professional. I began with a nearby lawyer in my area whom advised me to use a lawyer that is licensed in the Florida area. Mr. Dykes firm came up with some great information and reviews.
It took one phone call to the firm to decide that if I had a case, I would want them to handle it. The staff was helpful, polite, and comforting any time that I called the office. I never had a problem contacting Mr. Dykes via phone or email. Although, I lived miles away I never felt "out of the loop", intimidated, or mislead.
Aside from been a man of God, you can appreciate his honesty, determination, and knowledge. I am very pleased with the way he went about my case from beginning to end. I am thankful and blessed to have come across this firm!
Be Blessed

I had a small accident that turned into a big deal with me requiring some medical care. I was so glad that I called Doug. There was so much paperwork, claims and forms to do, but he and his staff did all that for me. All I had to do was show up to the doctors and just walk walk out, Doug took care of it all and even got me a cash payment for my troubles.
If there was so much involved in just a small crash, can you imagine what he does for you in major accidents? Please call Doug if you have an accident. There is no charge for an initial consultation and it could benefit you greatly.
Thanks Doug, as a small business owner, I just didn't have the time to do all the paperwork and thank you for helping me with all this.

Doug is a wonderful attorney. He did everything I asked of him and more. He gives all of the advise that can help you make educated decisions in all circumstances. Doug cares about the outcome and is glad to help with all of the ins and outs of any situation in need of an attorney. He helped us with the purchase of a large company.

Having practiced law in the Panama City area for more than 30 years and being familiar with personal injury litigation, the highest compliment I can pay Doug Dykes is that if I was injured by the someone else's negligence I would hire Doug. He genuinely cares about his clients and works for them tirelessly. He thinks "outside the box", always alert for new approaches to maximize the client's recovery. Although Doug's knowledge of personal injury law is extensive, he constantly attends seminars and other programs to increase his skills. I refer all of my own clients and friends who need a PI attorney to Doug and have never received anything but positive feedback.

Douglas Dykes represented my family (me, my wife, and two grown children) in an auto accident case. While the case has yet to be fully closed, most of the objectives have been completed in a satisfactory fashion.
Mr. Dykes has been absolutely excellent in keeping us both educated and informed throughout the process which has had it's challenges as we do not live in the state of Florida - Nor does the family all live in one state. Not only has the case been handled professionally, he also approached several sensitive issues in a very caring manner.
I would highly recommend Mr. Dykes and his staff.

Great Personal Injury Attorney. Mr. Dykes is a highly caring and personable attorney that fights for your rights. I had an auto accident, where a careless driver rear ended me and pushed me into the car in front of me. The insurance company was trying to offer me peanuts, that would not even cover the medical damages. I went to one attorney and they said I did not have a case. I was frustrated and confused. Then I was recommended to go to Mr. Dykes by a friend. I thank my friend and Mr. Dykes, because Mr. Dykes not only took my case but got the compensation that I deserved. Thank you Mr. Dykes!

Attorney Doug Dykes represented me in an auto accident case. Mr. Dykes is a highly aggressive personal injury attorney. I did not have to go to court in my case and Mr. Dykes settled the case in a short period of time. I highly recommend Mr. Dykes if you or a loved one has been injured in an auto accident.
