Brad Souders is one of Tampas best Lawyers . He is very honest and well versed on the Laws of the State of FL. What some lawyers tell you they can't do he will do it. I would recommend him to any one. He will not take large amounts from your settlements like most lawyers will. When he is finished yo...u will walk away with a smile on your face. He is very knowledgeable of his work and if there are any loopholes he will find them .I was his first client many years ago. So if you need a lawyer for an accident please contact Brad Souders.

The best!!

We are all a bit apprehensive when hiring any professional in a field that we know nothing about. I know relatively nothing about law as it pertains to auto accidents. Thankfully, Brad Souders knows everything about his profession. I knew from our first meeting that we were on the same page. Beside...s being a tremendous attorney, Brad is a genuinely wonderful and compassionate human being. He is a brilliant man and takes all his clients' concerns to heart in a very personal way. I have had the misfortune of hiring a couple of, in my opinion, lazy and uncaring attorneys in the past (not necessarily accident related); in it just for the most money with the least effort. Brad's approach was a breath of fresh air. He is sincere, straightforward, frugal with your money and deeply cares about the welfare of his clients. He is always accessible via phone or email. If he is in a meeting and you leave a message, he will always reply promptly. No question is too trivial and Brad will take as much time answering your question as necessary; he is extremely patient and articulate. On the business side, Brad gave me excellent guidance throughout the entire process including following up with all my medical providers and interacting with the insurance companies. In the end, he negotiated settlement(s) for me that were far beyond my expectations. So, in addition to giving me peace of mind from day one Brad has secured a settlement that will allow me and my wife to move forward with our lives despite the financial setbacks we experienced as a result of my accident. I have now, and have always had 100% confidence in Brad's judgement and counsel. I would trust him with my life. If you need an attorney who is the most professional, most caring and give you the best chance at a just recovery, I strongly recommend Brad Souders. You will not be disappointed.

Dear Hal - Thanks for posting your review. It was our privilege to represent you in both accidents, the motorcycle accident and the car accident, both accidents certainly no fault of your own. Likewise, I am glad we obtained the best results possible, having the best Closing Statements, with lesser fees, the smallest costs possible, reduced medical bills or liens, to closing both matters with the best results possible, without delays. You deserve a lot of credit for this as we had great communication every step of the way. You also followed professional recommendations to obtain professional results; and, as mentioned previously, you might have even spoiled us. It has certainly been nice to stay in touch afterwards! Thanks again and please give my best wishes to Debi also. Sincerely, Brad

Excellent at managing difficult circumstances

I was in a car accident, and the case was very complex. Mr. Souders and his team were able to work with me and navigate a difficult mix of multiple insurance companies and ensure that an insurance provider which initially had denied my claim ultimately came to a fair an honest settlement. I have re...ferred other friends and family to his office, and he is always professional and thorough.
