BEST LAWYER IN FLORIDA

My second case with Brett Schlacter was a larger case than my 1st case. I was hurt in a car accident, someone hit me from behind in the express lane on I95. As in my 1st case everything was done very professionally by his amazing office staff. My second case took a little more time because it was a l...arger case. I received maximum benefits from the insurance company. If you want a lawyer that is very professional and has amazing staff, then you should definitely without a doubt call Brett Schlacter Law. They will win your case 100% without any doubts. Thank you So much Brett Schlacter and Staff Sincerely, Jay Singletary

The best

Let’s just say Brett and his team are the best in town,first time I met with Brett I knew he was going to be able to help me thru my case. I was involved in a car accident and had to go thru multiple surgical treatments and was very well informed by Brett and his team on where to go and what to expec...t. The case was not easy to handle, in fact it was very hard to negociate with the other party but the law firm managed to get us the maximum, thank you for this great work and professionalism! Definitely a 5 stars!

The best desicion I made after my accident ...!!!

The story started two years ago on December 2016 when I was doing a red light and a careless driver hit me in the back give me a whiplash and more injuries I didn’t know I had at the moment, this accident cost me cost me headaches and migraines constantly, for the following two years . A friend of ...mine recommended Brett Sclactter’s office so I called immediately right after the accident happened. When I met up with attorney Schlacter not only I was impressed about his professionalism but for his knowledge in regards to the law and how he was going to handle my case . Now 2 years after having multiple treatments and even a cervical fusion surgery on my cervical spine, Brett Schlacter was amazingly successful on recovering $300,000 for all the pain and suffering that I have gone through. I can not thank enough Mr. Schlacter and his staff for a good job well done after two years of battling on my favor. Thank you Brad for helping me and my family in this crucial moment of need. You are truly a man of integrity and someone that will care for justice, someone that will fight to the end for each and everyone of us who have been gone through difficult times like this . I give Brett Schlacter firm a HUGE 5 star ⭐️ attorney rating and I will recommend his services to any anyone in given time .
