Samuel Robert Alexander's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Alexander handled a complicated medical malpractice appeal out of the Third DCA. Mr. Alexander kept excellent communication with our mutual client. I highly recommend working with this appellate lawyer."
"I have worked with Sam on two matters. One was a straightforward appeal, and the other one was legal/trial support in a complex second-hand smoke wrongful death case against a giant corporate defendant. Sam has a clarity of expression both orally and in writing that is unique to accomplished appellate attorneys. After 33 years as a trial lawyer, I have yet to perfect that. I heartily endorse Sam Alexander for both appeals and trial support services."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Alexander is a highly skilled appellate attorney. I worked with him on a complex civil appeal and his brief writing was clear, persuasive, and logical. Not only did he produce stellar work product, but he also took the time to draft a comprehensive research memorandum addressing the client's input on the case. He went out of his way to make the client feel valued. His brilliant legal mind coupled with his genuine concern for his clients makes him an outstanding advocate. Any appellant or respondent would be lucky to call him their attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer. I found Mr. Alexander to be a fine appellate attorney. He was very responsive to the client and to the attorneys that handled the case at the lower level. I particularly liked his writing style -- tight, succinct, forceful, persuasive and logical. I am sure I will work with him again."
"I endorse this lawyer. Sam is a skilled communicator and demonstrates fine analytical and writing skills which serve him well as an appellate lawyer. He is a true benefit to our legal community."
