I sought legal advise from another law office but was basically turned away. When I consulted with Matthew Faulkner I felt like I was treated as a extended family member in need. Matthew went above and beyond to help me with my legal matter. You couldn't ask for better representation. I highly recommend Faulkner & Faulkner Law Offices.

A friend of mine referred me to Mr. Faulkner as she once needed a lawyer she could trust and only had great things to say about him. I met with Mr. Faulkner and instantly connected with him. He understood that it was a very stressful time for me as I was trying to recover from my car accident. He ensured me that he would handle all the legal aspects of my case so I could focus on my health. Through the entire process, Mr. Faulkner kept me informed about the details of my case, included me in decisions and shared with me his suggestions based on my best interest. His goal was my goal! He was very knowledgeable and was a man of action. I was not only extremely pleased with the outcome of the case; I also found Mr. Faulkner to be an honest lawyer who believed in me, my case, and his own ability to obtain justice. I would highly recommend!

It's rare to find a professional that has the amazing ability to get results, respond to need and concerns and do so in a kind and compassionate way. Mr. Faulkner has this ability to balance people skills with a vast knowledge and experience of law to not only achieve clients goals, but also do so in a way that takes into consideration the emotional roller coaster that legal issues take us on. I recommend him wholeheartedly for any legal needs anyone has had. He and his offices have been profoundly helpful to me and my family.

Stephen Waldman was highly recommended by a close family friend, after my son had received a serious injury to his knee following an auto accident when a car came through a red light and totaled our car. I was concerned that after his initial medical treatment my son's knee was still not 100% healed, Stephen advised us to see an orthopedic specialist to get a second opinion and the specialist indicated that a further course of treatment was required. During the process of presenting a claim to the insurance company, which accepted liability, Stephen Waldman was very professional and always kept us informed as to what was happening with our claim. He has great communication skills and it was always a pleasure to talk to him or answer the odd email. My son has now fully recovered from his injury. The initial settlement offered by the insurance company admitting liability was declined as the injury was more serious than originally anticipated. An improved settlement offer was then accepted and my son will now have some money that he can use for college etc. after his 18th. birthday. I am very happy with what Stephen has done for my son, without him my son would have received nothing. I highly recommend Stephen Waldman to anyone requiring the services of an excellent lawyer.

I was involved in a slip fall accident. I contacted a local law firm that specializes in helping women according to their website. I was asking for my medical bills to be paid since I broke my wrist and needed a metal plate and had surgery to repair my wrist with an orthopedic surgeon. Needless to say, the law firm that I contracted had many issues and did not file necessary paperwork due to personnel issues. During this time I had many lawyers leave the firm and a new one assigned to my case over a 4 year period. Mr. Bennett was assigned to my case and finally got the bill rolling. The issues with the firm continued and when Mr. Bennett also decided to leave the firm, I elected to keep him as my lawyer since he was the only one so far that made progress on my case. What a great decision! Mr. Bennett proved to be persistent, knowledgeable and dedicated to seeing my case through the negotiations and was able to secure my medical bills paid in full. He even waived his fee for me because of the amount of time I had been involved with the prior law firm and felt I had been treated unfairly for enough time. He is a wonderful attorney who works hard for his clients. I know if I ever need an attorney again, he will be the one I call.

Jeffs has helped me through some of the toughest times in my life. Not long ago I was hit by a driver that was texting and she ran a red light and collided with me leaving me with a severely broken arm. Jeff took it to task to help me. He helped me get the right doctors and surgeons. He stood up to the insurance companies that wanted to leave me for dead . And in the end he helped me receive a reward for over 600 thousand dollars. He is an amazing attorney and he is relentless in helping his clients. I would recommend him to anyone that needs help. He has helped me in the past and was very effective in seeing me through every aspect of the process. All this and add that we have become very good friends as well .

Jeffrey Adelman and staff are the most professional, caring and successful law firm for Personal Injury that I know in Coral Springs! I had a car accident in July 2013. After many doctors, testing, MRI's, etc. Jeffrey decided to pull a trick out of his bag of tricks. Since he was familiar with the co. we were suing, and had filed the lawsuit to go to court, he suggested an early mediation before the Holidays. I thought that was a great idea, to avoid going to trial and settle earlier. The attorney for the Defendant, the insurance co. was a trip. Not very presentable, and a bit nasty. But Jeffrey prepped me in advanced, and warned me that this was not the 'usual' attorney..... So glad he did so I put on my poker face. In the mediation (great mediator btw), after the other attorney tried to belittle me and my injuries, I mentioned why I chose not to have certain treatments, which I thought would affect my health in a very bad way due to the fact that I was allergic to it! That changed the entire case. To my amazement, we were able to settle the case on the spot, I did not deviate from what I wanted, and they agreed! But the most incredible thing about Jeffrey, is that he KEEPS HIS WORD! His word is his bond. He does whatever it takes to settle, and makes arrangements with the docs, etc. to pay off the bills to make sure his clients get what they deserve. I was very happy with my settlement. It took a little bit over a year, but I was very happy. I highly recommend Jeff Adelman and staff. You can count on them to have your back...literally! Thank you so much Jeffrey for making a difference in my family's life and mine. I am forever grateful. I hope I don't need you anytime soon, but if I did, you will be my first call! Thanks again.

Mr. John C. Fowler is a godsend. I was in a work related accident a few years ago and going through some hard times because of it. At the time I didn't not know that I had any rights or that I could get help to get medical attention I needed. Without any help or any direction in my situation I felt so lost and depressed. But all of this changed when I met Mr. Fowler, he explained to me my rights, he got me the help I needed to get back on my feet and with time I was able to go back to work. He worked long and hard to settle our case. I thank Mr. Fowler for helping me and my family during this difficult time in life we went through.

From the first initial consult call that led to a meeting with Derek, I felt like I had found an advocate for my case. I was dealing with another firm that brushed me off and didn't care about me (the client), and he was able to ease any concern to make the switch from them to him on that note as well as many other reasons. I, for the first time, had felt listened too, understood, and ready to move forward with complete confidence thanks to Derek!! He truly led me throughout my entire case with ease, professionalism, care, empathy, as well as always having a solution to what would be overwhelming obstacles at every turn to the normal person. He led my case to a successful outcome while providing such a detailed care for my overall wellbeing, and what I felt was right/fair as well. He definitely will be referred to all my friends and family, and anyone we connect with. Thank you, Derek, I truly cannot thank you for being the advocate that you are for your clients!!!

This guy deserves so much more than just 5 stars. I meat Matt through a mutual friend because of a 17 year old bench warrant came calling. I also work in the legal field and it was messing with my job, my daughter was getting married in the same state as this warrant and i couldnt do the 10 days of jail. This was a Failure to Comply Bench Warrant 10 Days Jail-No Bond for a DWLS 3rd Degree. Needless to say the prosecutor was not making any deals. Matt prepared a Motion and set the hearing. I of course was a nervious wreck. However, the judge found in favor for defense because Matt did his homework. He was respectful, professional and was not afraid to argue the case out against the State. HE'S AWESOME and i cant thank him enough for what he has done for me. The outcome for me was a recalled bench warrant and my 40 hrs of community service reinstated. If you want someone that will fight for you and go the extra mile for you, this guy is it. He definately WONT let you down. THANK YOU AGAIN MATT :) Oh and i forgot to say, my hearing was during his vacation; he came back to town for my hearing then went back out and finished his vacation with his family.

Mr. Berry is a complete professional, in every sense of the word. Compassionate, honest, prudent and versatile in matters of law. I am a single mom and very able, competent and successful. I am the founder of my own non-profit, although small in scale, that serve the needy with a determined and compassionate mission statement. I had a terrible last year with personal crisis and being harassed by Cps investigators twice. The first round I was completely oblivious to what their demands and ridiculous requirements were doing to the fiber of my family. I had no attorney at that time because I thought for sure I could not afford one. The second round I was empowered and immediately reserved my 5th amendment rights to not speak to anyone until I consulted an attorney. I was able to find Mr. Berry on a fluke chance that he did not want a huge retainer for his services. His services were extremely reasonable. I recommend him for anyone feeling lost, desperate, hopeless, or oppressed. He really helped me more than he will ever truly know.

I came to Bourhis Law Group after jumping through endless hoops with my long-term disability insurance company and getting nowhere. Matt and Ritsa made me feel heard, important, and respected every step of the way. We settled with the insurance company after they couldn't wiggle out of their obligations when faced with attorneys who really know the law. Ann-Marie was also kind and patient at every turn, I never felt like I was interrupting or annoying when asking for something to be explained, again. If you want to be represented by an attorney who cares and knows the law, you need Bourhis Law Group on your side.

I have never had to use a lawyer before for an automobile accident but I can honestly say Christian was the best person I could have asked for to represent my case. He always made sure to keep me updated on my case, checked in on me to see how I was doing from my injuries, worked diligently with his staff to make sure my case was handled in a timely manner, set me up with a doctor to address my injuries, along with other great things but above all he always treated me with respect and never once did he nor his staff make me feel like I was just someone to make a buck off of. Christian went above and beyond in my case and I can't say enough great things about his work and professionalism. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a fair lawyer who will never take more than you get and who will go the extra mile to make you their priority!

My attorney Mr. Gray handled my personal injury case. My mother & I were hit by a limo bus & sustained some injuries. He & his team made sure we were seen by great doctors & were there every step of the way. If you’re looking to get someone to get you to the right compensation for your injuries, he’s the man to do it! It’s a process, one that can’t be rushed! Daryl Gray is the man to make it happen.

I contacted Steve due to a personal injury I sustained. Steve immediately took my case. I was treated with respect and consideration by Steve and everyone on his staff. They are exceptional. My case was settled to my satisfaction in less than a year. My particular injury is at times a hard one to collect damages for, but Steve, took the bull by the horns and got me the settlement I was looking for. I would recommend this attorney to anyone faced with personal injury.

I found Mr. Gabrielson to be a very knowledgable and professional attorney. Never having hired an attorney before, he took time to explain the process and what part I needed to play within this process. I appreciated that he had an office in the Brainerd area as well as Sartell. Mine was a personal injury case and I believe it was handled by Mr. Gabrielson exactly as it should have been. I would not hesitate to hire him again.

I had an unusual and challenging case. Lance was referred by a friend and I was impressed by his insightful intelligence. He approached my case with respect, patience and compassion, welcoming my input, taking my concerns seriously and acting accordingly. I heard Attorney Youd argue effectively on my behalf; and while the final judgment was not exactly what I had initially sought, it was still better than I could have reasonably expected from our judicial system, which Lance expertly navigated with confidence. I highly recommend his services.

My wife and I were hit by another driver with the same insurance company. I did everything they asked and almost 2 years after my accident the insurance company still had not settled my claim. I contacted Mayerson Law and Ben took over from there. He and his team quickly got up to speed on my claim, injury reports, possible medical liens, and started working for a resolution. It was an unusual claim with many moving pieces and injured people. He not only resolved the claim with all parties quickly, he got me a settlement for above and beyond what I thought possible. I would highly recommend Ben Mayerson and Mayerson Law!

I had the pleasure of having Ben work two separate cases for me in which he was exceedingly successful in both. Ben has an incredible combination of intelligent determination and patient, kind customer relations. In our first case, I had suffered a motorcycle accident that he was able to compensate me for, and the second was a bicycle crash that he, again, demonstrated determined success. I had no experience in law and he was extremely patient with my ignorance, willing to explain to me in terms I could understand without belittling me. In the second case, as I had already worked with him through one, he volunteered his service as he had an incredible interest in the case at hand. He offered to take on this mission with steadfast determination and proved the master of his skill once again. I would gladly recommend Ben Mayerson to anyone who inquires about needing an injury lawyer. Good Job!!

He also worked with me on payment when another criminal attorney I had hired would not and he still got my cases dimissed. I would recommend Mr. Garcia if you need a great criminal attorney.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
