a nightmare lawyer

My encounter with Jed Kurzban was nothing short of a nightmare. I sought Kurzban's legal representation for a police brutality case that I was involved in. The city of Key West, perhaps recognizing the weight of their wrongdoing, offered me a settlement of $200,000 to sweep their police brutality pro...blem under the rug. In retrospect, this hush money proposition was not only unsatisfactory but morally repugnant, given the numerous other victims who had endured similar experiences. Opting for a trial seemed like the only right path to take, as it felt essential to hold the authorities accountable for their actions. However, what followed during the trial left me questioning the integrity and ethics of my legal representation. The trial proceedings appeared to be tainted from the very start, with a judge who seemed disinterested and even fell asleep during crucial parts of the case. It was evident that something was amiss when police evidence tapes were presented, tapes that bore unmistakable signs of manipulation and editing. What bewildered me further was Kurzban's lack of objection or challenge to these egregious discrepancies. It was as if he had no interest in pursuing justice, and in my opinion, it strongly indicated that Kurzban had possibly received financial incentives from the city of Key West to sabotage my case. Jed Kurzban's conduct throughout this ordeal has left me deeply disillusioned and convinced that he is not a lawyer to be trusted. His actions, or lack thereof, not only cost me the opportunity for justice but also shattered any faith I had in the legal system. It's disheartening to witness someone in a position of trust who appears to prioritize their financial gains over the pursuit of justice and the well-being of their clients. My experience with Jed Kurzban has been a stark reminder of the importance of thoroughly researching and carefully selecting legal representation, as not all lawyers have their clients' best interests at heart. Today I live with 7 screws in my ankle and multiple sclerosis. A direct result of a poorly trained inadequetly supervised over equipped federally funded local police department. the trial and Jed Kurzban defense was extremely suspicious at the very least. so if you are searching for a good lawyer, keep looking

Personal injury law at its BEST

I GOT HURT, and was scared of the process. Mr. Kurzban helped every step of the way. I'm not sure I'll EVER be the same after the accident. Hearing a jury say that it was their fault about my disfigurement, makes every day easier. I would recommend him, because he truly HELPED make my life much bette...r!

Supportive, practical, and an awesome attorney who gets things done

I found Mr. Kurzban to be an attorney that knows the law, knows how to use the law, has an excellent record, and worked really hard to help me. He explained to me that each case is different, and he spent the time to understand my circumstances. He was able to frame the situation and build the case. ...I was very pleased with the results. I would strongly recommend Mr. Kurzban.
