I had the honor of representing a family in the last couple of years where the father was involved in an 18-wheeler wreck and was rendered quadriplegic because of the accident. He's now paralyzed and can't care for his family, and has millions of dollars in medical bills due to no fault of his own. We take on challenging cases like this where they blame the victim and get them recoveries so that they can try to put their lives back together. Money will never restore this man's ability to walk, but it will help him keep a roof over his head, pay for his medical needs, replace the wages that he lost, and put his children through college as well as feed his family for the rest of his life. This is Our Calling, and it is an honor to help families like this because we have the skill set to take on corporate Giants as well as insurance companies every day based on our Decades of experience and our proven way of winning cases.

It's our mission to provide exceptional legal services at the highest level of client care to put the client first. Clients are treated like members of the family. We strive to be the best personal injury and truck accident lawyers in Florida. We go to trial statewide in catastrophic injury cases to win for our clients. We have a 99% win rate. Most of our business comes to us because people know about the past results that we've obtained a jury trial and through favorable settlements, and they refer to us because we are trial lawyers first. This includes big advertisers that get involved in cases that they can't handle because they don't have the skill set that we have. We are not afraid to take a difficult case to trial to level the playing field for our clients. Insurance companies and corporate Giants know who we are, and we get exceptional settlement offers because they don't want to face Us in court. We are blessed to be able to come to work each day and help people.

If you're looking for a personal injury lawyer you should find someone who shares your values. Look for a word that looks you in the eye and listens to you. Look for a lawyer who makes sense when he talks to you and is willing to take the time to talk to you about the details of your particular case. Look for a lawyer ask questions about what your goals are and how he can help you achieve them. Run away from any law that promises you a result because if you try cases as often as we do, you know that you cannot predict a result, and sometimes you lose cases that you should win, and you can also win cases that you probably should lose. Ask the attorney what advice they would give you if you were a member of their family. Ask them about their experience in jury trials and handling cases like the type that you have. Don't make a decision if a lawyer is pressuring you, and read Google reviews to see if customers are generally happy with the performance of the attorney in the past. We have an excellent reputation online based on the work that we've done in the community for years and our history of winning.

Local knowledge is everything. If your attorney cannot find the best doctor in town to help you with your medical needs, then you need to find a new attorney. We have a vast Network at the local level in the communities throughout the state of Florida, concentrating in South Florida, to help people get the medical care that they need on a timely basis after an accident. We have accident investigators who can go to accident scenes anywhere in the state to document the evidence before it disappears. It's impossible to prove a case if you don't preserve the evidence, and we have the ability to do this. You want a lawyer with a good reputation before the local judges and with the local defense lawyers and insurance companies because that's how you get an extraordinary result with the rights that have facts. We enjoy an excellent reputation with defense counsel as well as the local judges that helps our clients every day. You don't get this kind of service with a law firm from another state or from out of town.

We often spend an hour on the telephone with clients to help them evaluate whether or not we will be able to help them. We can\\\\\\\'t accept every case because sometimes the facts will not let a client win their case, but if the facts and the law support the ability to get a substantial recovery then we are happy to investigate the claim. We often spend tens of thousands of dollars investigating cases at no charge to the client unless we win for them. There is never a charge to a client even if we put hundreds of hours into a case until we get that recovery. We have over 25 years of experience each and clients get this level of service without paying a penny unless we get a recovery for the client.

When we talk to new callers on the phone weare looking for basic information about: - how an accident occurred; - who is to blame for the accident; - the injuries that the person sustained. This gives us an idea about whether or not we can help the person and their family. The more details you have about dates, times location, photographs or videos that you may have collected the more information that you can provide us the faster we can help you.

We are trial lawyers first which adds tremendous value to claims because insurance companies and defense lawyers know who we are and now they have to pay our clients a lot of money if they want to settle a case. We are willing to take cases to trial where most lawyers are likely to settle. Insurance companies know which lawyers settle cases and which lawyers go to trial. That gives our clients a tremendous advantage. We pair hard work, world class expert witnesses and A+ customer service that puts us above almost every other lawyer in our community.

We love helping people. We love it when we get a child a recovery and it pays for their college education. We love helping people put their lives back together and adjust after a serious accident. We are Good Lawyers Helping People. We help people who don’t have the knowledge, time or money to fight insurance companies. We are Trial Lawyers and we maximize our client’s recovery through civil jury trials.

We support youth sports and our local schools. We provide scholarship to allow children to go to school when they otherwise may not be able to afford an education.

We are involved with Habitat for Humanity, the Jewish Federation, the Catholic Church, the Florida Justice Association, the American Board of Trial Advocates, the Brain Injury Association of Florida, the National Trial Lawyers Association and the American Association for Justice.
