Our Results and Reputation in Florida

Results are real only when they are collected. Our record includes seven- and eight-figure actual payments, including verdicts and settlements of $15,000,000, $10,350,400, and $4,962,376.51, among many others in the seven-figure range. We highlight collected outcomes because unpaid verdicts do not help families cover medical care or rebuild their lives.

Awards and peer ratings confirm the quality of our advocacy. Justin C. Johnson has held the AV Preeminent rating for many years and has been recognized by Super Lawyers annually since 2011. Our firm has been ranked among Best Law Firms, and local publications have profiled our attorneys for excellence in trial practice. These honors reflect consistent work, strong ethics, and results that withstand scrutiny.

We keep a trial-ready posture. Insurers watch which firms actually try cases. Our courtroom history, expert resources, and willingness to invest in your case enable us to resolve matters more efficiently and for higher amounts. When a fair settlement is possible, we strive to achieve it. When it is not, we present your case to a jury with confidence.

Practice Areas We Handle For People Across Florida

We handle a wide range of injury cases, including those involving adults and children. If you need a slip and fall lawyer, a product liability advocate, or help after a serious crash, we are ready to step in.

Auto accidents are a core focus. Whether you were hit by a distracted driver, sideswiped by a truck, or hurt as a pedestrian, we will secure police reports, camera footage, witness statements, and medical records to prove liability and damages. Motorcycle and bicycle cases require special attention to visibility and road design, and we know how to present those claims clearly.

We handle wrongful death matters with care and respect, helping families pursue damages under Florida law. We also take on cases involving dangerous or defective products, negligent security at apartments or businesses, daycare abuse, boating accidents on our bays and lakes, severe burns, and life-changing brain and spinal cord injuries. Our team works with medical specialists, life care planners, and economists to value future care and long-term needs.

If you are reading this after a fall in a store, a crash on US 19, a marina incident, or a dog bite in your neighborhood, we can help you understand your rights and act.

Step by Step, How a Claim Moves Forward

Free consultation and case review. Call, text, or email. We listen, ask focused questions, and provide you with straightforward answers about next steps and timelines.

Investigation and evidence. We gather photos, videos, 911 audio recordings, property incident reports, black box data, employment records, and medical documents. If experts are needed, we bring them in early to strengthen your case.

Medical care and recovery. Your health comes first. If you need guidance on treatment options, we can help you find providers who will document injuries clearly. Good documentation makes a significant difference in settlement value.

Demand and negotiation. We send a detailed demand package with evidence, legal arguments, and a fair value assessment. Because we prepare as if a trial is ahead, our demands carry weight.

Filing suit and discovery. If the insurer refuses to be reasonable, we file suit and start depositions, written discovery, and motion practice. We keep you informed and ready for each step.

Mediation, settlement, or trial. Many cases resolve at mediation once the other side sees our evidence. If not, we set the case for trial and present it to a jury. Throughout, our focus is on ensuring your case is positioned for the best possible result, based on the facts and the law.

What Sets Our Approach Apart

We keep it straightforward. Your case will have a direct attorney contact and a clear timeline. You will always know what we are doing, why it matters, and what to expect next. We employ a comprehensive case strategy for each case, bringing together liability proof, medical evidence, and a damages model that accurately reflects the actual impact on your life.

We also care about your stress level. Dealing with insurers can be frustrating. We take those calls, handle the paperwork, and protect you from lowball offers. We aim to move at the right pace, fast when needed, steady when it serves your interests, always focused on the best outcome for you and your family.

FAQs

If you were hurt because another person or business was careless, you may have a claim. The best step is a free case review. We look at fault, injuries, insurance coverage, medical care, and deadlines. If we can help, we will explain how and what it might be worth.

Nothing up front. We work on a contingency fee, which means we only get paid if we recover money for you. We also advance case costs when required. Before you hire us, we explain the fee and answer every question, so there are no surprises. 

It depends on your medical recovery, how clear the fault is, and the insurer’s response. Many cases resolve after treatment and negotiation. Some need a lawsuit and may go to mediation or trial. We prepare early, which helps us resolve cases sooner and for higher amounts.

Call us first. Adjusters often ask for recorded statements and quick medical releases. That can hurt your claim. We will speak for you, send the needed documents, and protect your rights while your treatment continues.

Florida law still allows recovery when fault is shared in many situations. Your percentage of fault can reduce the award, but it does not always block a claim. We evaluate the facts, gather evidence, and push back when the other side tries to shift blame without proof.
