I you want a lawyer who is hard to get, if you want a lawyer who has a rude staff, if you want a lawyer who makes you think you wasting his time, if you want a lawyer how has the bedside manor of a dead cold fish. DON"T call Mr. Walker. This man walks tall among other men, this man is a team leader, this man is not scared of a fight, this man will walk into hell with two open buckets of gasoline to make sure he is giving you all he can give. Mr. Walker was so easy to talk to, it was like talking to your brother, if the conversation went off to something not related to the subject he would listen, he understood that he needed to hear everything you said. Mr. Walker never let me down when it came to my case and never even when I expected him to try and rush an event, he took his time. I never had a case go into the federal court system, you could feel how Mr. Walker knew what to do and to walk the walk in both local and federal level. No better man walks. He also wears the uniform of the U.S. Army . God bless him and all like him who defend us in court and on the real battlefield.

Brett Oppenheimer did a brilliant job settling my daughter's injury case. He kept us well informed, made sure bills were paid and was able to help my daughter get a more than fair settlement. I would recommend Brett highly to anyone who values an attorney/client relationship and wants to make sure their loved one is taken care of in a timely and fair manner. I hope I never have to need an attorney for such an injury again, but I am not afraid if I do because I know exactly who I will call... Brett Oppenheimer!

I am an Indiana resident who needed to approach a medical malpractice attorney in regards to a potential case for my mother who is an Ohio resident. My company's corporate attorney recommended the Linton Law Firm and I am so grateful he did as Bob and his staff were exemplary in guiding, educating, and directing me to the steps that were necessary in order to proceed to litigation against a hospital and rehab facility that mistreated and harmed my mother. In six months time Bob spent hours with me on conference calls and his assistant Robin worked tirelessly with me in obtaining and documenting medical records all at no cost to my family. His insight was invaluable and I would recommend his services to anyone who is looking to hire a dedicated, personable, above board attorney who truly has compassion for individuals who have suffered for unnecessary reasons.

I highly recommend Mr. Robert Linton to anyone in need of an outstanding, top-rated attorney. Robert Linton--Bob--as I and my family came to address him, soon became "like family" to us. I confirm that Bob is a kind (and one-of-a kind), empathetic, honest attorney who dedicates not only himself, his team and legal assistant Robin, and all his resources to his client, but his passion for his craft. Bob was totally invested in championing my case for justice and fair compensation, following an automotive crash, which caused me injury. Pre-existing medical conditions complicated my case, ones which I previously were able to balance and manage, now worsened, changing the trajectory of my life, robbing me of participating in those activities which I previously, fully enjoyed with my family. Bob skillfully navigated the flawed legal system, to right the wrong carelessly committed against me, by a negligent driver. Owing to Bob's solid character and resolve, he continually reaffirmed my confidence in his legal guidance throughout the legal proceedings. Mr. Robert Linton--Bob--is truly a "real lawyer for real people." I, and my entire family, will forever be grateful to him for advocating justice for me. thank you Bob Linton.

Mr. Linton is an exceptional attorney. We sought his counsel and expertise when we were consumed with grief and the overwhelming circumstances that led to the loss of an amazing husband, father, physician and humanitarian. Mr. Linton met with us to discuss our situation. His calm demeanor, compassion and respect for our loss, provided our family great solace and confidence, enabling us to entrust him with our journey and our desire to seek a just resolution. Mr. Linton skillfully listened as we shared the painful details of our loss. With understanding and patience, Mr. Linton was able to sort through our grief and focus on the relevant issues that gave our case its merits. He continuously advised us on the status of our case and carefully explained the process as we moved forward. He interviewed witnesses, took the testimonies of experts and diligently researched the circumstances that surrounded our case. But above all he made it his mission to come to know the person we lost through our stories and the stories of the people whose lives were touched and forever impacted. Mr. Linton's skillful navigation of the intricacies of our case paired with his vast knowledge and experience, resulted in a just and rightful conclusion. Mr. Linton is a kind, principled, generous and spirited advocate for those in need of expert counsel. We are forever blessed in knowing him and forever grateful to him.

I went from being dismissed and looking at getting nothing for me and my son's injuries to receiving money for a new car and compensation for our injuries. Mr. Behr did what no other attorney would and he succeeded even against a top defense attorney in Dallas. Mr. Behr was amazing and his paralegal is absolutely the greatest!

I was driving to one of my stores in North Alabama (in a company car) and out of nowhere was T-boned by another vehicle. The truck that hit me failed to yield to my right-of-way and said that he was waved through the intersection by an 18 wheeler. My car was hit on the driver's side door and spun around until I was in another lane and facing the opposite direction. The driver came to my window yelling that it wasn't his fault. I called 911, was cut out of my car, and was taken to Helen Keller Hospital, where I was seen by the ER doctor and transported to the UAB Trauma Unit. I had multiple tests, therapy sessions, and 5 surgeries over a year and a half or so to repair the soft tissue damage to my arm. During my first stay at the hospital I was contacted multiple times by an investigator--the driver that hit me was in a company vehicle and his company wanted me to make a statement about the accident. I was advised by a nurse that was checking my stats a couple of times when the investigator called to hire an attorney, and having never done so (and only living in Alabama for 3 months) I was anxious about what to do. I was given Ken Riley's name, contacted him, and felt very relieved for having done so. The phone calls from the investigator stopped after I directed him to contact my attorney, and I felt very safe and protected, as I was nervous about how to respond and how to protect myself. Ken worked patiently and supportively, always genuinely concerned about what I had been through and how I was healing, and guided me through dealing with Worker's Comp, depositions, and the mediations with both the driver that hit me and the truck that waved him through. I still have open medical, which is important, as I am still under medical care for nerve damage treatment. The most important part of the entire thing was knowing that I had someone in my corner, fighting for what was right, and allowing me to focus on getting well."

Don was an excellent choice to handle complex litigation. His expertise throughout the process proved invaluable to achieving a successful resolution. He also kept me educated on each filing, and best of all, kept me informed on the details of each phase. The team at HWNN handled document management impeccably, making preparation for litigation straightforward and streamlined. I always felt a sense of comfort at each milestone of the case, because Don and his team planned proactively to anticipate what our next steps would be. His professionalism was second to none, and that was very apparent in his communication with other attorneys and government officials. I am extremely pleased with Don's results, and I'd give him the highest recommendation to anyone who needs to successfully litigate a complex case.

Attorney Veronis ("Niko") is the BEST! We hired him after my husband was kicked in the head by a horse in a car accident. Yes, bizarre. I didn't know where to turn. I was confused about the law and our rights. My husband was seriously injured. A friend and colleague recommended Attorney Veronis. I called and left a message. Within hours, he called back and talked on the phone with us, explaining everything. The next day we went to his office, had an excellent conversation in which he clearly outlined our options and put us at ease. He even gave me a copy of the book on personal injury that he and his partner have written. We hired him that day.

My sincere thanks to Nicholas Veronis and his staff for helping me and my family when I found myself in need of a lawyer as a result of a horrific bicycle accident.

From his initial visit to the skilled nursing facility (where I resided for 4 months totally bedridden) to the rehab hospital and to visiting me at my sister's home where I continued my convalescence until I was able to return to my own home, Niko's personal concern for my well-being and recovery/rehab efforts never waivered. I was able to focus on healing and Niko worked with the insurance companies and all my medical providers resolving a myriad of billing issues, etc. I am extremely happy to have this behind me and to have reached a settlement allowing me to move forward with my life.

I have witnessed this first hand through the process with him. I urge anyone that has had a misfortune in life regarding an accident to contact Mr.Price. You wont have any regrets as he leaves no stone unturned and excels in legal engagement with insurance companies as well on the battlefield of court. Don't make a big mistake by trying to take on an insurance company by yourself and that includes your own insurance company.. They will NOT have your best interests in focus.

I was wrongfully terminated from a local government position. Because it was government it was very complex. After consulting with Mr. David Burkhalter and his son Alex they took my case. They worked together like hand in glove. They kept me updated and aware of things that would be upcoming. I was never “caught of guard” in the process of mandatory wait times or replies from the defendants. They were completely in charge of my situation and had the answers before the defendants could ask the questions. It was amazing watching how prepared Alex and the Burkhalter firm was. Alex was wise and professional above his years. Alex was always very honest with me and let me know what to expect at the next turn. I would absolutely recommend Alex and the Burkhalter Firm to anyone looking for the Best of the Best.

Alex Burkhalter earned my respect and confidence from the very beginning. My case was a wrongful termination against a municipality, which involved uncommon, technical environmental concepts. Just to understand the facts of this situation, the entire staff had to learn what must have seemed like a new language. Not only did they learn the environmental concepts and the proper, technical way to speak them, they became proficient in the specific details. Although I was certainly pleased in his understanding and adaptation to the language of my case, it wasn’t his proficiency in the details of this situation that impressed me the most. It was that each and every one of the staff demonstrated a very personal interest in my well-being and in correcting the environmental issues this case would address. From our first meeting, I knew that Alex Burkhalter was as concerned with these environmental issues as I was. I also knew that this firm was deeply concerned for my personal well-being. This review falls far short of expressing my gratitude for this well-accomplished firm. To you reading this review, I say - this law firm and its entire staff are the most dedicated, professional and personable you could hope for. To Alex and the Burkhalter Law Firm, I say “Thank you” from the depths of my truth.

Alex Burkhalter is the epitome of an attorney and a gentleman. His determination to do the highest quality work for his clients is undeniable. My complex wrongful termination suits required many hours of research and fact finding. He was relentless in his pursuit of justice in this case. At all times, he was respectful to me and made me feel confident and comfortable. He also made several positive suggestions to the Sr. partner that strengthened my claim, and I am happy to say that David (I)) defeated Goliath (a large corporation) thanks to the hard work, diligence and dedication of the Burkhalters. Alex is still young in his career, but he displays the attributes of a seasoned attorney. He was invaluable to my case. I cannot say enough good things about this young man, who places the well-being of his clients first and foremost. I was always at ease and calm with him. He is not afraid to stand up to a Goliath!! I would recommend him wholeheartedly to any client with a work-related case.

We will definitely use him in the future! Fred was a true gentleman and very strategic in getting us the best result possible with a minimum amount of time or cost incurred.

We have an ongoing issue. It's complex because there are several parties involve and we're going through a juggling act. We're waiting on Licensing board investigations but they are delayed and we have no time table as to when they will be finished. Yet the company that caused the issue is trying to push it to court before the investigations are finished and you really don't know what or when you are going to need the attorney. You come up with important decisions where you just need 2 questions answered. Around here, you call just to try and find an attorney. Most won't even have a conversation long enough to make sure you're comfortable with their experience. No matter what your issue is they tell you they can do it and some even talk about money you can go after but you'll find out it was irrelevant. These same attorneys are more interested in getting your credit card to get money right away versing making sure they can help you. I had found one other lawyer on here that dealt with larger issues but he took the time to speak with me and told me what to do and when I needed to bring a lawyer in. Today is that day so I started my search again. I was so fortunate to find Will DeVore. Again, he answered several important questions today, advised on what to do next and when to bring him in. It's so comforting when you get somebody on the phone that's interesting in hearing your problem and concerned about helping you versus hustling you out of your money. Do yourself a favor, if a lawyer asked you for your credit card to talk to you or schedule an appointment to come in, walk away. Give somebody like Mr. DeVore’s office a call. The prove they care about doing what’s best for everyone instead of just what’s best for themselves regardless.

I give 10 Stars to Michael Ace , Super Attorney , at Roberts and Roberts Law Firm. He Represented my 26 Year old Daughter, who is Autistic, Non -Verbal, and handicapped, after she was severly injured with multiple broken bones due to the negligence of a large corporation with a team of heartless Lawyers to shield them from being responsible. Michael Ace , valiantly fought them from District Court to Federal Court and won my daughter the Victory and settlement she deserved. He even took money from his part of the settlement and gave it to my daughter. Think about that....where is their another Lawyer that will do that? After the case, he continued to protect her settlement from the IRS and Social Security by placing it in an untouchable, Special Needs Trust Fund. Let me tell you, I am 68 years old and generally do NOT like or trust Lawyers, but.... Michael Ace is God's Warrior in your arena, and he does NOT lose. He truly cares about his client's. THANK YOU Micheal Ace and Roberts & Roberts Law Firm for what you do.

Attorney took the awesome approach of informing and educating my husband and I as her clients. She educated us of our rights as well as positioning us in the best way possible to get the most out of our case. S he took great initiative and anticipated our needs. Her communication style and frequency was appropriate and balanced - we always heard from her when we needed to. Once we retained her, she immediately began working on our behalf, freeing us from the need to speak with claim adjusters who were not working in our interest. She was a great negotiator and used her skills, experience, and influence to maximize our settlement.

John Christensen represented me, in a case I almost didn't file because I doubted an outcome in my favor. Unlike other attorneys I've worked with, John was genuinely empathetic & compassionate, extremely communicative & accessible throughout, and professional without being stuffy. I was pleasantly surprised that he got my case resolved so quickly, with an outcome that exceeded my expectations. Office staff are very pleasant & happy to assist at all times.

I was involved in a rear end accident where someone hit me. Once her insurance company wanted me to settle my medical claims I wanted advice from an attorney. I called Chip and he was happy to help. He worked hard for almost a year and a half to get the best possible settlement. He was kind and caring. He spent much time gathering medical information, consulting with doctors and negotiating with insurance companies. I was very pleased and satisfied with the outcome of my case. Chip is an outstanding attorney. I highly recommend him.

I've never had a great deal of experience with attorneys, so I was very skeptical. However, I've never been shown more compassion and understanding with our difficult situation.

Mr. Casola is an excellent attorney. I found him to be very thorough and professional. After reviewing my case, Chip identified key issues that I myself hadn't picked up on. After filing suit an unacceptable offer came in from the other side. Chip proceeded to counter and negotiate a very favorable settlement. All of this happened in a very short time frame and allowed us to skip the court process of which I wasn't looking forward to, even though I had a strong case. I consider Mr. Casola my attorney and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced and competent lawyer.

Today I learned that Brien had been successful in settling my personal injury lawsuit. My husband did all the work to choose Brien, out of dozens of well qualified attorneys he had researched. Having interacted with Brien for over two years now, I cannot think of one thing that he said or did that did not make complete sense to me. He was thorough, thoughtful, communicative, fair and in every way a top notch attorney. What stood out the most to me was his unwavering honesty. I would give him an A+ and would recommend him without reservation. If I ever have need of an attorney again, I would not hesitate to go back to Brien. He gives the legal profession the approbation that it deserves.

I hired the right guy. This case could have jeopardized my career. Mr. Roche provided me with expertise knowledge throughout the entire process. Without his guidance, I would have felt lost in the process and would not have received the judicial outcome that I did. He was able to meet with me the following day after I contacted him, within a week, and we hit the ground running. He was able to calm my fears and kept me organized throughout the entire process to get everything taken care of in a timely manner. Having a knowledgeable attorney with a calming demeanor navigate you through this process is very important and high recommend Mr. Roche to represent you! Thanks again, Brien!

I have know Brien Roche since 1992. I worked for his firm as a legal secretary at that time. I went on to work for other lawyers and in other fields as well. When my husband and I decided to split I called Brien because my work experience with him in had shown me how diligent he was in making sure that his clients were well represented. He has an amazing legal mind, pays attention to details and all angles that may occur for strategy. His fees are very low and the representation is superb. I am thankful and grateful that I have had him in my corner. My divorce went smoothly and at very minimal cost to myself and my ex husband. We both own businesses and the divorce could have become a financial nightmare if fueled by a lawyer looking to line his own pockets. His skill set and his get it done and keep the fighting down approach were in our best interests were key in a potentially emotional and financially explosive situation. His level head helped resolve the matter in a manner that left our credit, finances and the stability of our 3 children intact. He is hands down the best kept secret in the Northern Virginia legal field. I would use him for any legal issue. Hire him! :-)

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.
