The best lawyer for serious accidents.

My wife and I were in an accident in Florida when we were visiting from out of state. I knew I would have a difficult decision ahead of me of who to have represent my wife and me in such a predicament. I didn’t want to just go with the first lawyer that popped up on google, understanding the seriousn...ess of my accident and case, so I went through a number of websites until I found Howard Butler and the Butler Law Group. When I saw his accolades and awards in trial, I felt confident that this would be the attorney that could represent my wife and me going forward. Wow! When I met Howard and his team for the first time, he was very sincere and honest, but he was also extremely serious, intimidating, and had a real presence about him. Although personally I would not be best friends with this personality, after going through the process I can see how fortunate I was in having someone like that in our corner. He never backed down, and had the respect of even the large insurance lawyers! He and his team prepared for our case as if it were going to trial from day 1. I couldn’t help but think about the costs and fees that would be coming up for my case as well. Howard’s team worked late hours preparing and created many of the presentations in house where I found out most firms outsource to expensive outfits and then expense it to the client. Not only did we get a better settlement offer than we would have if we went with another attorney, but I know our costs would have been much higher if we had gone elsewhere as well. I realize that no matter who you have represent you, they are going to take the same fees and incur (higher!) costs as you go. Might as well get a lawyer who will give you an A result and save you thousands of dollars in costs. I am very happy I chose Howard and the Butler Law Group, because I know my wife and I are in a much better position to move on from our accident than we would have otherwise.

Dedicated to my case for the long haul

After my traumatic brain injury, I needed a lawyer and none came more highly recommended than Howard Butler. He understood more of what I was going through than I did. Howard made sure I had the best care and proper treatment. Prior to that, it wouldn't have been possible for me to write these statem...ents. He fought for and protected my rights for more than 11 years, until a settlement was reached. I truly believe that it cost him more to represent me over the years, with multiple court appearances, than the fee he received at settlement. Howard, I don't know what I would have done without your protection and representation. You were heaven sent. Thank You!
