John K. Overchuck, the managing attorney of the Overchuck Law Firm.

When you choose me as your lawyer, you do just that, you get me as your lawyer. I will take your calls and be available whenever you need me, even on the weekends. You will have my personal e-mail that forwards to my cell phone so you will receive a response the same day. I have never had a client say, “I could not reach my lawyer when needed.” My office does not have an answering service. What does that mean? After hours, our calls are forwarded to our cell phones so no stranger will be taking your calls. I am the kind of lawyer that REALLY cares about his clients. I am a kind, good-natured person who will treat you with the respect you deserve. I am married to my beautiful wife, Natacha, who is a self-made woman herself. When I am not spending time with my family, I will be in my office working on YOUR CASE. You are my client but you are also my employer – I WORK FOR YOU. My goal is for you to be so pleased with me as your lawyer that you refer everyone you know that may need representation. I will do everything I can to make sure I will be the lawyer you turn to for the rest of your life.

 

As to my background, I earned my juris doctorate law degree in 2002 and passed the Florida Bar Exam on my first attempt. I have extensive experience in all aspects of personal injury cases. I handled over 1000 personal injury and wrongful death cases from start to finish recovering over 75 million for my clients. I have obtained successful outcomes for my clients because I am relentless in obtaining justice on their behalf. My first job at the age of sixteen was working in a personal injury law firm. I started at the bottom and worked my way up – literally working in every position in that firm. That hard work built the character necessary to run a successful law firm. Today, there is no job beneath me or that I won’t do and I expect that same mentality with each and every person that works here. Simply put, we are a team – Team Overchuck. And that team is here to serve YOU.

In addition to being a full-service personal injury firm, we are a trusted referral source for any legal matter you may need. If we don’t do it, we will find you the best attorney that does.

You're in good hands with Team Overchuck
After researching many attorney profiles I chose Overchuck Law Firm because I couldn't find one bad review. A car accident back in August 2015 left me without transportation so Nasha came to my home and pleasantly explained the process thoroughly. Cheryl, an awesome paralegal went over all other details of my case with patience and honesty from start to finish, while Mr. Overchuck diligently handled those other challenging negotiations. I'm very happy with the results and I definitely recommend Overchuck Law Firm Thank you for all of your hard work and support. Carmen B.

I highly recommend John Overchuck
I was involved in a major car accident on January of 2014. While I was traveling on a major highway, the other driver attempted to cross 4 lanes of traffic after running a stop sign. Unfortunately for me, I was unable to swerve to avoid them and we collided. Two people were taken to the hospital and as I understand it both cars were totaled. Prior to this incident, I had been in a few minor accidents, and I had never sought the services of a lawyer before, opting instead to simply deal directly with my insurance company. However, because of the seriousness of this accident, and at the advice of my mother who was also in the car and who also received extensive injuries, I decided to hire John Overchuck to represent me, and it was by far the best decision I could have made. Accidents are never a pleasant experience, however John and his assistant Cheryl guided me through the process and answered every question I had in a courteous and prompt manner. It was extremely helpful to have an advocate during such a trying time, and the whole process was much less burdensome then prior accidents when I handled everything by myself. Overall I was very pleased with the outcome and I'm sure I ended up in a much better position then were I to go it alone. Should I ever be involved in an accident again, I will undoubtedly turn to John Overchuck, and I recommend anyone unfortunate enough to find themselves in an accident to do the same. You won't regret it!

Great service, great people!
John and his paralegal Cheryl took care of everything and kept me informed along the way. Couldn't be happier with the results of my car accident injury case. The only thing I had to do was see the doctor and heal.

A law firm that will really care about you, not just the allmight $$$
I was introduced to Overchuck law by a friend...He told me that John and his staff would go out of there way to get me the help i needed...When we walked into his office, they made my wife and i feel at ease. We meet with staff the first day... You could tell they were there to help you in any way they could... My wife is Spanish and they had a young lady named Nasha there to translate for her... We were introduced to Cheryl the paralegal, and from that day on she was there to answer any questions we had via e-mail or just calling her on the phone!!! some times at 8:00 or 9:00 at night...She has really been there for us !!! We had a problem with our insurance company, John made a phone call and wrote them a letter !!! Problem solved !!! He is a down to earth man and someone who will listen to what you have to say... They are a great group of people!!! Its rare to find a law firm that you can trust what they say, and do what they say they will do!!!

Great experience with Overchuck Lawfirm
After suffering a terrible accident resulting in a fractured tailbone and seeking legal counsel, I was referred to Overchuck . A decision I am greatful to have made. Living 2,000 miles away from where my accident took place made me sceptical about who to hire. From the very beginning Cheryl Hooper , paralegal at Overchuck , put my mind at ease. She kept me informed of every aspect of my claim as things unfolded. It was always very easy to reach her via email or telephone, my calls and emails were always responded to promptly. My questions were always answered thoroughly and explained to me so that I never felt in the dark at any time. She was always very honest with me about the direction my claim was headed right from the beginning which instantly gained my respect. Cheryl and the staff at Overchuck made it very easy for me to feel comfortable and secure having my claim n thier hands and being out of state and so far away. I may be on another end of the country from this law firm, but always felt like I was right next door. My claim was handled professionally and respectfully and with much empathic concern for my injuries and suffering and the burden the accident had on myself and my family, to which we will always be thankful for.

Very thankful
My husband and I are very thankful for the help we received from Mr. Overchuck. My husband knew of him having lived in the Orlando area most of his life and we were not disappointed. His efforts on the case were unrelenting even after pushback and delays from the insurance company. His paralegal, Cheryl, is outstanding and kept us informed every step of the way. She was always a friendly voice on the phone and never hesitated to answer questions. Thank you!

J. Overchuck - Job well done!!!
I was in a car accident last year. After reviewing several firms, I narrowed it down to three. I called the Overchuck Law Firm and spoke with their Paralegal, Maria Paez. She was very polite and showed great sympathy toward my injuries. John also came out to my home to speak with me. He was very detailed and knowledgeable when explaining the process of my lawsuit. Both kept me updated periodically throughout the year. As a result of their hard work and effort, I am very satisfied with the outcome. Due to this, I have also referred others to this firm. All have thanked me for doing so. It is my personal recommendation to use this firm.

Personal injury Attorney | Jun 19
Relationship: Worked for lawyer
"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked for/with John and find him to be an outstanding lawyer who is skilled and knowledgeable in the areas of personal injury, wrongful death and products liability. John is very personable and participates actively in each case from the first meeting with the client until the resolution of the case by settlement or jury verdict. His experience in the courtroom is extremely valuable in predicting what his opponent will do. Insurance adjusters fear and respect him because they know that he is not afraid to take a case to trial. More importantly, they don't want to go up against John at trial because they know he will WIN as evidenced by his proven track record. Not only is he successful in trial, John is also active in the community by supporting a number of local and national charities including Paws for Cause, which benefits an animal rescue team. He also supports Toys for Tots, breast cancer awareness and many others. You can't go wrong with John!"
