Never updated Never contacted

I met with attorney Broun once with simple a car accident case in 2014 where the other driver was at fault and cited. Attorney Broun never calls to update me on my case. Now a year later, its been 6 months since I finished my injury related medical care and he received all related medical bills an...d I still have no idea if he has even filed a claim against the person who ran into me. He never responds to my emails and takes days or weeks to return my call. I am not happy.

Dear Client, I am extremely sorry and upset to hear that you are dissatisfied with my services. If I have truly failed to respond to your e-mails and phone calls, then I have not been meeting my own standards. I claim full responsibility and will not make excuses. I pride myself in developing personal relationships with my clients and always provide my personal cell phone number for immediate access. Please send me a text or call me so I can make this right immediately. I would contact you directly myself except I do not have a name attached to your review. I have searched my e-mails for any messages I may have missed but did not find anything to help me identify you. Once again, I truly apologize and I fully intend to reconcile this situation as soon as I am able to determine your identity.

Best Experience

I was recommended to Matthew Broun by a friend and am happy to have had the privilege of having him as my attorney. I was involved in a car accident where I was a passenger and was hospitalized for almost a week. Matthew drove two hours from Atlanta to my house to explain what steps need to be take...n after the accident. He was very helpful in guiding me through the procedures that needed to be done. Throughout the process he kept me informed and was quick to respond when I reached out to him. Thanks to Matthew's help, my hospital bills were completely taken care of. I would strongly recommend Mathew Broun to anyone.

Great Lawyer

I was rear ended by a drunk driver, and hurt to the point I had to see a pain management specialist. Matthew Broun took my case and I received a nice settelment. He was there to answer all my questions and concerns. Everyone in the firm was very nice and professional. I would recommend him, if yo...u need a good Lawyer, call Matthew Broun.

Matthew Broun worked very hard to get my a great settlement

Matthew Broun took up my case when the person who caused my accident protested that it wasn't really her fault and the whole thing ended up in court. Matthew stayed with me through it all until she finally accepted responsibility. I ended up with a nice settlement for my many injuries and Matthew t...ook care of all of the huge hospital bills, negotiating out fair payments. I highly recommend Matthew Broun!

Exceed Expectations, Hand Down!

On 11/6/2013 my car was pushed into the next lane by a huge semi truck on the GA 400 going Northbound on my way home from work. I was fortunate in that the cars behind me saw the semi truck had not noticed I was directly beside his right passenger tire and they gave me just enough room to squeeze ...into the next lane, considering this was all happening in a matter of a few seconds. My car was damaged on the driver side door by the truck driver’s right tire. There was minor collision damage to my car and I had some neck stress from tensing up due to the shock of it all. I couldn’t get any help from his insurance, I only had liability coverage at the time and no attorney would help me because my case was simply to small and I wasn’t interested in bilking the insurance company with any false or exaggerated chiropractic claims. However, my last call before I gave up was to Kalka & Baer and I spoke with Matthew Broun. He kindly took my call and “listened” to my story, even though he likely didn’t really have the time. He also took another 10 minutes to tell me what I could do to get the insurance company to pay my claim. He asked me to follow his instructions, write everything down, step by step and ask me to follow his instructions. He also added that if they refuse to respond to my request, to call him back. I thought that was amazing! When I finished that call I felt confident and eliminated the sense of hopelessness I had gained. I know he was busy, but he just did what he thought was the right thing. He believed that I had the right of way. He understood that the claim of $1700 for damages and some for pain and suffering was too small for any law firm to take on as a case. I did as he instructed and with a little persistence I finally received a check for $4,000! Thank you Matthew Broun, you are the absolute best. Your character superseded my expectations. If I ever need any legal representation in the future I am contacting Matthew Broun at Kalka & Baer. They are the law firm I feel I can trust, hands down.
