This was our first experience with Mr. Charpentier but in case we are in need of a Florida attorney in the future, we are keeping his number in our speed dial. Seeking legal advice about circumstances resulting in the death of our mother, we had been shuttled from one attorney to another because none of them would be honest enough with us to advise that our initial issue was without merit. Mr. Charpentier cut right to the chase about the questions we had and took the time to explain why litigation would not be advised. During the course of that initial conversation he did note an issue of interest regarding an accidental death insurance policy. We discussed that issue & agreed to pursue that matter further. Mr. Charpentier and his staff fulfilled everything we have come to expect from legal advisors and more. They were professional and courteous at all times. Our questions were answered promptly and clearly and we were updated on status along the way by conference calls, emails and US mail. It is our firm belief that the expertise & assistance of the Charpentier Law Office was a huge positive in the successful outcome of our claim.

Response from Stephen CharpentierMay 19, 2018
Thank you John. It was a pleasure to work with you. I think your use of the word “fail” is simply a computer typo. It appears so given the context within which it used.

Hope I don't need him, but would hire Steve again.
Steve and his team did an excellent job of representing and supporting me through a difficult time. Steve personally phoned and kept me apprised of events related to my case as they occurred, and the favorable outcome exceeded my expectations. Likewise, his staff was professional, personal and always resolved issues quickly. Couldn't be more pleased with his representation.

Best Lawyer Ever!!
After being in a car accident that totaled my car, I was referred to Mr. Charpentier.
From the first meeting with him and his staff, I knew I was at the right place. They worked tirelessly on my case speaking to all concerned from hospitals, doctors, other attorneys, and insurance companies.
They kept me updated on my case and met with me when needed.
They settled my case in a timely manner.
If need be, I will consult with Mr Charpentier and his team in the future.

Professional
I was in a car accident that involved a car hitting my car at a high speed while I was stopped. Not long after I contacted my insurance company and found out that the driver had the same insurance, the insurance company offered me a settlement. I didn't trust them, so I contacted a lawyer that I did work for in the past and He referred me to Steve.
Steve and Joanna worked hard to ensure that the insurance company covered everything. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. The communication between us was more like talking to a couple of regular people and I couldn't thank them enough for all the hard work that was put toward making sure i was taken care of.

Great law firm, highly recommended!
We were very confident after doing our due diligence to locate a good attorney that Steve Charpentier would be the one to represent us. My son and I were involved in separate accidents less than 3 months apart. Both of us required surgeries as a result.
Steve, his incredible paralegal Joanna, Kalliope, and the rest of his staff were a pleasure to work with. They were empathetic, professional, and courteous at all times. They are a polished, well-coordinated, efficient team that considers their client's needs and cases carefully. With multiple cases going on simultaneously in their busy office, they still manage to make you feel your case is the one they are focused on.
Steve seems to be at the top of his game, full of energy and vigor backed with many years of experience. He was welcoming and gracious answering our questions and concerns along the way, solidifying things were under control throughout the entire process. It is very obvious to me that he loves doing what he does, helping people to achieve the most favorable outcome possible.
We are appreciative and grateful to you Steve, Joanna, Kalliope, and the rest of your impressive firm for all of your hard work and everything you did for us.
Sincerely,
Terry, Gabriela and Carlos

Twice Hired, Twice Pleased
Our journey began at the dry cleaners. Small talk led to a partnership, I knew by our very first conversation that I could trust Mr. Charpentier. I first hired him in 2014 and then again in 2017. Once for myself, and then again for my children. In both cases we were treated with professionalism, respect,dignity, and compassion. Mr. Charpentier is honest and transparent in his communication. He will fight for you and won't settle until you have all the facts and options on the table. He allows you to be a part of the settlement decision. If you want an attorney that has integrity, open communication, quick responses, patience, and values your participation, then he is the right attorney for you. His staff is just as amazing as he is. I am forever grateful for Stephen,Chris, and Joanna. God Bless you all.

Mr Charpentier and his staff were very kind and professional throughout my entire case. They explained what they thought was the best way to handle things but always gave me the final say. Throughout the process they communicated what was going on and answered thoroughly any questions that I had. As a client I felt like a priority in the way they handled my case. They fought for my best interest. I am thankful that I chose Charpentier. Law Firm.

SUPER ATTORNEY AND SUPER STAFF
Charpentier Law Firm represented me in a case involving an automobile accident which occurred on March 11, 2020. I appreciated Mr. Charpentier's knowledge and many years of experience, as well as his integrity and his promptness in both resolving issues and communicating them to me.
Paralegal Joanna Stevens was extremely efficient in carrying out the many details involved with my case, and she too was very prompt in addressing issues. Joanna and I maintained a very good rapport throughout our many back-and-forth communications.
I always enjoyed hearing Kaliope's congenial voice whenever I needed to place a telephone call to the office, and she was very helpful in teaching this technologically-deficit senior to learn how to use "Zoom!"
I highly recommend Charpentier Law Firm to anyone who might be in need of the specialized services that are offered by Mr. Charpentier and his staff.
