The Greatest!

Armando Hernandez is nothing short of truly amazing. I was in a bad car vs moped collision while driving my moped to work early one morning. My moped was found on the sidewalk several feet away from the accident scene and within minutes I couldn't even walk. The pain that I suffered that day and the ...continual issues I now have to live with neck, back, tailbone and hip pain broke my heart as I was perfectly healthy prior. I wanted justice but over the years I really didn't think I would get it. He maximized my recovery allowing me to receive the best treatment possible and during the whole process Armando has been responsive, knowledgeable, transparent, and communicated extremely well with me as I know nothing of this type of work. The insurance company was refusing to pay more than nuisance go away money presuit. So he kept fighting and fighting nonstop and eventually (4 years later) filed suit. He aggressively litigated and they ended up paying 40 times what they offered presuit. I was shocked as I really didn't think after all this time anything would come out of this but Armando never gave up... even when I did. His presistence and work ethic is unparalleled. Thank you so much Armando for everything you've done. You have been a light for me when I was in a dark place and I'm forever grateful. Not only would I recommend him to family and friends but I recommend him to anyone looking for a diligent Lawyer who will put you in the forefront and keep your well-being at heart.

Would use him again, hopefully won’t have to!

I was rear ended in October 2017, and the driver who hit me had so many issues - missing insurance, title, driving someone else’s uninsured car, out of state license etc. Armando Hernandez was a life saver! My friend referred me to him to see what I could do about this. He worked tirelessly for what ...I deemed to be a tough case considering all of the obstacles that kept coming up, and never gave up. He ended up getting me more than I expected through mediation so we didn’t even have to go to court.

Professional, excellent communicator and fast results!

I reached out to Armando when I was involved in a car accident in June 2018 where the other driver was at fault. I was frustrated that my primary physician would not see me because I was in an accident. Armando was able to guide me to the right place and helped me get an appointment the same day. It ...was at that time I asked Armando if he would represent me and he agreed. Not knowing how anything worked I had so many questions, I called emailed and texted Armando. Within 24 hours and most time 8-12 hours I had a full response. I saw his experience when I would ask him if something had been done and he was already 2 steps ahead. He had a plan explained it to me and I couldn’t be happier with the results. We settled and I received payment by September 2018. A colleague was involved in an accident in January 2018. We kept communicating about how our attorneys were handling the cases. I am aware that every case is different however in this case the whole experience was different for us. She would not get a response for 48 hours and sometimes she had to call more than once. She was sent to a deposition on her own because she could handle it. I realized it is so important in a vulnerable time like this to have an amazing attorney and I had that. My work friend asked me for my attorneys name and said in the future that is who she would call. I recommend Armando and will continue to do so if anyone is in need of a reliable, professional attorney.

Fast and efficient service to finalize hurricane claim

My husband and I filled and insurance claim for hurricane Irma almost immediately after the storm. After almost a year with an adjuster and lawyer that came highly recommended we kept getting the run around and then came to find out nothing had been done. This is when we were referred to Armando and... his law firm by one of our good friends. Within a month we had a settlement offer and we’re able to finalize the claim! Not only were we satisfied with the settlement but the quick and efficient service Armando provided was one of a kind. We would highly recommend his law firm for any representation.

Outstanding representation

After hurricane Irma, my insurance company was not responsive to my needs. I hired Armando to represent me and assist me in recovering the money I expected to repair my home. I would never have gotten a reasonable settlement without Armando. There are many things that made Armando different than o...ther attornies. He provided extreme attention to detail, he was responsive and accessibility, and any necessary action required to make things happen were quickly addressed by Armando and his team. There was no doubt that he had a great deal of concern for the well-being of my wife and me. I am very pleased with the outcome, and I am convinced that I could have never gotten my home back in order without the able assistance of Armando and his dedicated team.
