Best Attorney I’ve had and Highly recommend Mrs. Bzdyk

Without the help of the entire Donna B Michelson law firm I know that I would not have had the successful outcomes I have had. Mrs. Karen Bzdyk took on an extremely difficult case and encountered issues that no one expected and few had ever seen. She worked tirelessly to make sure that the job was do...ne and presented it perfectly. She has stood by every one of my requests and guided me through the entire lengthy process. Though we faced challenges, Mrs Bzdyk did not falter. Her thorough research provided me the pathway i needed to rise to victory. I am proud to be a client of Mrs. Bzdyk and will continue to retain her for all legal matters that may arise as I know I am in the best hands. I never once was treated as anything other than a valuable client by Mrs. Bzdyk. I very much appreciate the knowledge and support I received through Donna B Michelson law firm. I’m not only a client but I consider myself family now and I highly recommend Mrs. Bzdyk

Professional Atty , Listens to your needs.

I had the best Attorney anybody could have. I was blessed to know that I can trust Karen Bzdyk which is hard to say nowadays. Karen is an understanding, people person and always kept me updated on my case. When I was going through a rough time dealing with the case, she uplifted me and did a lot for ...me and I'm very grateful. I am proud to say she was my attorney.

A Mother’s Misfortune

I began to search for an attorney because I felt something just wasn’t done correctly in our mother’s case. Our mom was admitted to a hospital with an infectious disease. Instead of observing the patient for 3-4 days in order to determine exactly what was wrong with her. The hospital discharged her i...n less than 14 hours! Her problem quickly worsened with every hour that passed. She was admitted a second time. This time on a Rescue transport. Plus the infection caused permanent brain damage. With our mother inside an observation room at 2am. No chair available, I said to myself sitting on a cold hospital floor, “Someone one day has to be accountable for what just happened to my Mother!” Due to these reasons, I began to consult different Esquires. A couple wanted me to do some of the investigative work myself! After speaking to Donna and Karen. We chose Donna’s Law Firm. I feel it’s the best choice we could have made. I say this modestly. Donna and Karen took our case and made us feel like family. Our mom was treated like it was their own mother being represented. They covered every aspect of the clients medical care. Things that I would’ve never thought of. Also, when it came time for any depositions. Both Donna and Karen would prep us for any possible questions that opposing attorney’s may ask. As a result of our mother’s case. I’ve recommended these attorney’s to anyone who has asked me about looking for a personal injury negligence esquire. These attorney’s were heaven sent. Every time our mother met with them her smiles could me seen from a distance. Donna and Karen are passionate about helping their clients. They put their heart and soul into our mother’s tragic case! And for that our family is forever grateful for all their hard work and compassion given to MOM!

Professional, Experienced, Knowledgeable and Personable!

I was looking to hire the very best medical malpractice attorney in the state of Florida. I found exactly what I was searching for, when I found Karen Bzdyk! Karen was clear and precise when specifically explaining the legal process that I would face, especially the idiosyncrasies to the state of F...lorida. She made me feel comfortable, that I put my trust in her knowledge and expertise in this facet of the law. She kept me updated each week on the progress of my case and what to expect next. I felt confident immediately that I was in good hands and wouldn’t have to navigate any part of the process myself. Karen handled everything. She made herself accessible to me at anytime via a variety of communication options. Given her vast medical background, she was able to answer any medical questions that I had, specific to my personal situation. I always felt valued as a person with what I was going through, not a a legal client. I felt that Karen personally cared about my medical issues that I was attempting to work through. If a person is looking for the very best, most knowledgeable medical malpractice attorney in the state of Florida, look no further. It simply doesn’t get any better than attorney Karen Bzedyk!
