ARE YOU HIRING A LAWYER
BASED SOLELY ON TV ADS?  

TAKE A MOMENT AND CONSIDER YOUR OPTIONS  

A serious traffic crash can change your family's life. If you're reading our Ft. Myers personal injury lawyer website because a Ft. Myers traffic crash, Ft. Myers car accident, Ft. Myers motorcycle crash, Ft. Myers semi accident or other serious incident has disrupted your normal life, as well as the life of your family, then I hope you will find information here that can help you. 

You May Not Need a Lawyer

Despite all the lawyer TV ads, billboards, newspaper ads, radio ads, phone book ads, and other forms or lawyer marketing, sometimes the best advice is that you do not have claim that can be won.  If that is true, I will tell you so.

I'm Fort Myers attorney David Harris, trial attorney and injury lawyer. I represent seriously injured clients with valid claims.  When I dedicate my time and resources to representing only legitimate clients with serious claims, I am able to do my best work.

How I Operate

Perhaps, unlike other law firms with large staffs and overhead, I have found that getting “bogged down” in lots of little cases, each with its own “special problem,” is not good for my clients with legitimate claims (as invariably, the time that has to be spent on those little cases, explaining why injuries cannot be seen on diagnostic films, or why there is no property damage, etc., can be more consuming than the big cases).

So, right out of the box, I'm openly and honestly telling you that I do not take every Ft. Myers auto accident case or Ft. Myers personal injury case that comes my way. Doing so would go against what I stand for, as well as the clients I represent.

Instead, if your case meets my criteria for acceptance, then you can be assured that you will receive my personal attention. I will keep you advised as to the status of the case and give you my advice as to whether your case should be settled or whether we should go to trial. Also, if we go to trial, then I will be the attorney trying your case.

An initial consultation is free. I also will fully explain all fees and costs to you before proceeding. Together, as a team, we will decide on the tactics best suited or your case.

Who I Am and Why I'm Different

I'm sure that you, like me, hear a lot about "change" in the media and in politics. But we don't often associate change with the legal profession. But there have been changes, and not all of them have been good for the consumer.

I started this law firm because I was not pleased with the way many other law firms handled personal injury claims. Let's say I have a deep philosophical disagreement with how many larger firms operate and their model.

Whatever works for you is ultimately your decision.

My Difference From Large Firms

There are a lot.  But, a basic overview is that, in my view, large law firms tend to be bureaucratic, with layers of staff and titles. Having to pay for this very large overhead, as well large advertising budgets, can change a firm's focus from what is best for the client into what is best for the firm.

As a result, large law firm attorneys can be juggling hundreds of client files at any one time. Non-attorney assistants, whose titles seem to be endless ("legal assistant," "case manager," case "coordinator," etc.), then play bigger and bigger roles in your case. Some of these non-lawyer staff assistants actually negotiate with the insurance companies!

I have received too many calls from dissatisfied injured persons -- good, decent people -- who tell me they never spoke to their lawyer after the initial phone call -- even years after the case began (and that fact that it has been years is another topic . . .).

Whatever happened to having a personal relationship with your lawyer? Do you want to be one of several hundred "files" your attorney is trying to stay on top of, or having your matter delegated to assistants and "case managers" (who know the case better than your own lawyer)?

Case Value Inflation Designed to Get You Signed Up

To top this off, unfortunately, some injury lawyers may exaggerate the "value" of the claim to get you to hire them, and then later disappoint you when they "discover" problems "real" settlement offer is made.

No. Time for real change in my opinion.

Warning: Time is of the Essence
Delays Can Eliminate Your Serious Personal Injury Claim    

Florida law contains statutes of limitation for every type of personal injury claim, including auto accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, and defective products.  These are often strict deadlines that most people don't even know about.  Unfortunately, a statute of limitation can eliminate any chance you have to recover for your injuries.

If you fail to file a lawsuit, or follow other statutory requirements for making certain types of claims, within the time frame required by the law, then you may be barred forever from making a legal claim.  No matter how seriously injured you are. No matter how at fault the other party may be.
