Excellent Attorney

Blade handled both of my property damages and injury claims from my accident. He ensured that I was informed on the progress every step of the way. The firm is well connected to the major payers and can get settlements addressed much quicker than larger firms due to his willingness to provider person...al service. I was extremely pleased with both the speed and the financial outcome of both settlements and would highly recommend Blade Injury Law to anyone who wants to greatly reduce the amount of stress and time associated with getting your payout.

Knowledgeable, hard-working, and diligent.

I hired Blade Thompson to handle my personal injury case which happened about 3 years ago. I was rear-ended by a modified gravel/asphalt truck which totaled my car. My neck and lower back were injured in the accident. Blade was very thoughtful and knowledgeable about how to handle this particular cas...e/injury and recommended superior health-care providers to what I was getting from my own doctors. His recommendations were first-class, and were instrumental in helping me secure a settlement for very close to the policy limit. Blade knows the law, knows what is important and what isn't, and is always available to discuss issues He always keeps you apprised of progress with your case. He will help you understand how to position your case to receive maximum proceeds. I don't believe he knows how good he is. I feel very fortunate to have had him handle my case.

Top Notch Auto Accident Claim Attorney! (GA & FL)

I hired Blade to represent my mother and I in a horrible Car accident claim that left us with injuries that will be with us the rest of our lives. Upon speaking with Blade, I was immediately put at ease. Having had a history of bad claims I knew I needed an Attorney that would represent me well. The ...best part was Blade came recommended to me from another Attorney! Blade understands the laws of GA and FL and other states. He also comprehends the injuries associated in horrible car accidents! With my wreck occurring in FL, I needed someone that could handle my claim all the way through. Blade not only did that but he got what we needed to handle our claims. Although, money never makes up for one's lifetime injury and battle scars, it sure helps bring solace to the fact that we can treat ourselves for life without coming out of pocket. Thanks Blade! You know you have my future referrals. Go Dawgs!

A huge comfort during a very stressful time

A month after my accident, I still had not received a settlement for my car. I was dealing with my injuries with so many doctor visits. Additionally, I was trying to replace a vehicle that was totaled at about half the value. When I hired Blade, he told me to focus on getting well and let him deal ...the insurance company. And honestly, he did just that. He fought for me knowing the settlement would be small compared to the million dollar settlements he's done in the past. He kept me informed throughout the process. Navigating an injury accident isn't anything I could have ever done without an attorney. I always felt Blade had my interest at heart.

He always returns my call or texts in a timely manner. He was there for me when I really needed him. I would recommend him to anyone who needs... an outstanding and dedicated lawyer.
