Great Attorney and excellent staff

My wife and I were injured in an auto accident. I was impressed from the start with the professional attitude that all of his staff has toward their clients. My wife and I were interviewed by Mr. Prince, who spent over two hours with us discussing the case and our injuries. We were very pleased with ...the way he and his very knowledgeable staff handled our insurance claims and kept up with our medical care. We had a very reasonable settlement to the case and his office cut no corners in our care. I have never dealt with an attorney who was more knowledgeable or concerned about his clients. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing legal assistance dealing with an auto accident.

My Story

I was a Ft. Lauderdale police officer assigned to traffic. A motorcycle cop. While on duty a car crossed into my path. I was hospitalized for two months with horrific head and chest trauma. Injuries that ended my career. I was then introduced to Charles Prince who came highly recommended. He ...deftly assessed my situation and agreed to represent me. I was treated professionally and with a candor I had not come to expect. Throughout the following months Mr. Prince guided me as he prepared my case. There was further medical and psychological testing necessary, yet I felt I was always consulted. Everything was explained to me and my input was sought and valued. As a police officer it was in my nature to be constantly aware of all that was happening. Mr. Prince knew this and kept me in the loop. The case was so professionally prepared in such an adroit fashion that it was settled without going to court. I feel I have been adequately and fairly compensated for the loss of my career. I am thankful he was my attorney. I am grateful to now consider him my friend. I offer my highest personal recommendation to Charlie Prince. (I have never been able to call him “Chuck” as so many do.) Steven. R

Client

I would like to convey my most sincere appreciation and gratitude for the outstanding service that I received from Attorney Charles Prince. On December 21, 2014 I was seriously injured in a horrific accident. Unfortunately I was seriously injured which resulted in three surgeries and months of rehab...ilitation. Being in law enforcement for the past 36 years, I spoke with and consulted with many friends and other attorneys in an attempt to find the very best personal injury attorney. The outcome was overwhelming and unanimous. Attorney Charles Prince came highly recommended. Not only did Prince do a stellar job on my case, he and members of his staff continuously called me and checked on my condition. Prince also continuously updated me on my case. Since my accident, I have referred several friends to Prince and they were just as impressed as I was. I was very impressed with the courteous and professional service that I received from Prince. Charles Prince is an exemplary attorney and he is a credit to his profession. Not only did I meet a great attorney, I gained a great friend.
