Look no further

I had never needed an attorney before, but when my son suffered a birth injury i knew i needed a good one, an experienced one, someone i could trust to keep our best interest at heart. I found all of this in John T. Gilbert at the FL Firm. From the first time he drove over an hour to meet us and hear... our story all the way through to our settlement, our legal process was made as easy as possible and i felt confident i had the right people to get the right results. My sons first year of life was hard enough, The Florida Firm took a huge burden off our entire family, allowing us to focus on helping our son get better. We are forever grateful to John, Kristen and The Florida Firm for their help and competence at such a hard time in our lives. - Wendy T. - 2019

The Best

My experience with The Florida Firm was the best that I could have hoped for considering the difficult time my family was going through at the time. My husband suffered a devastating stroke. Doctors took him off his blood thinner medicine for a procedure, which was not even necessary for that particu...lar procedure. He should never have been taken off and because he was, he suffered a massive stroke that left him paralyzed on the right side, unable to speak intelligibly, and with cognitive damage. He now resides in a nursing home. Our lawyers, Jon and Ron, were able to negotiate with 4 defendants and their lawyers to secure a substantial sum of money for us. They made the whole process as painless as possible, keeping me informed at all stages of the process, preparing me for depositions, checking in with me on a regular basis to keep me informed of our status in the lawsuit. They fought for my husband and our family and were always ethical and professional in all aspects of our case. The paraprofessional, Rachael, was so great at keeping me informed and answering all my questions, clarifying as needed, and always professional and gracious as well. I would highly recommend The Florida Firm to anyone seeking an attorney concerning medical malpractice situations!

Compassionate and Effective Advocate

I hired Jon Gilbert after a terrible auto accident - and very glad I did! Jon is a very experienced personal injury attorney. He listened to me and helped me achieve results. A few things worth noting about this law office: the staff is very organized and responsive. My questions were answered pr...omptly and I was consistently in the loop on the status of my claim. Overall, the experience with Jon Gilbert was a bright spot on a tough situation - highly recommend!

Auto Accident

I contacted John Gilbert after my car accident and he answered my call immediately. My daughter and I were injured when the careless driver hit my car from front. He and his associates meticulously handled our case from beginning to end. Mr. Gilbert is not only an excellent lawer, but also very carin...g person. He made sure we got the proper medical care while he defended our case. I highly recommend him and his associates!

A fierce advocator with endless endurance.

After suffering the tragic and sudden unexpected loss of my son due to the result of negligence by another, I went on a mission to find an attorney that was just as determined as I was to reveal the truth and seek justice at any cost. I met with several attorneys over the course of 6 months. I was to...ld many things; good and bad. I had some attorneys staff try to pressure me into giving them my case, others told me everything that I would come up against and that I wouldn't stand a chance. Of all the attorneys and staff members I interviewed for my case, John Gilbert and his team stood out to me. Having been a litigation Paralegal for the last 12 years, I knew exactly what to look for in a good firm and a good attorney; John and his firm possessed the exact honesty, drive, and genuine desire to seek the truth of what occurred in my case that ultimately lead to the death of my son. Over the course of several months we discussed the facts of my case, detail after detail, over and over without exhaustion. John and his team gathered records and scoured them to identify the tiniest details and nuances to bring forth in scrutinizing depositions. John represented my case just as boldly and diligently as I would have if I was able. He and his team exceeded my expectations, lacking no detail, ultimately bringing my case to a successful end. As tough as the facts of my case were, John and his staff were continuously cordial, sympathetic, and in fact were so invested they grieved my loss with me. Don't let the media that is saturated with commercials bias you for what you might think a good attorney is. A good attorney will walk the walk with you, cry with you, and guide you with endless endurance to the end. That is what John Gilbert and his team did for me and my family.

I've personally sat with him in consultations with prospective referrals and he makes sure to take the time to walk through the intricate and complex details of a medical malpractice case. As an attorney who's business is 100% word of mouth, it is extremely important to me that my referrals are handled with care and that each case is met with a thorough review and evaluation, regardless of whether it meets his firm's acceptance criteria.
