Review Bradley Souders

Exceeded and passed my expectations!

Posted by

A year ago I was hit by a car while on my motorcycle by negligent red light runner. I was left with injuries and my motorcycle was totaled. Mr. Souders caring and sincere attitude helped ease my stress through the whole ongoing process. He always made sure that I was fully aware of and understood every step until the end when we closed. He told me himself, "My job is to take you from point A to point B as smoothly as possible." And he not only did that, but instead went past and beyond my expectations. I would absolutely recommend the services of Mr. Souders to anyone in need.

A great Attorney

Brad Souder has been and will always be my Attorney when I had my first accident where a Tractor trailer crossed a double yellow line and hit me head on a friend told me about Brad. After talking to him and decided to have him take my case I found Brad to be up front in every way. He and his office worked with me and got me the best medical treatment that I could ever had. Brad was fair and didn't try to take advantage of me in any way. I got a justify settlement and didn't charge me to the point where I had nothing left after everything was paid. In fact I had a second accident 3 years later and had Brad handle it also. He and his office are fair truthful and you receive a fair settlement and the best medical treatment like you deserve. With out a doubt I think you can't go wrong if Brad is your Attorney in fact when my son was in an accident he also had Brad as his Attorney. You can't go wrong with Brad Souder as your Attorney take my word for it. Gerry

Ride Safe & wishing you and the family the very best. Sincerely, Brad

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 you 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.

Best advice ever

Mr. Souders advise regarding my recent motorcycle accident assured me the steps that I had taken before consultation were correct and advised me on future actions I should take to protect myself. His unbiased, non judgemental, encouragement was invaluable to me. Mr Sanders will be my attorney for all future needs and I highly recommend him.

***SIMPLY THE BEST***

Posted by

On January 1, 2010, I was involved in a car accident, which resulted in nearly a year of doctor's appointments, testing and, ultimately, neck surgery. Due to the seriousness of the injuries, it became evident that I was going to need legal assistance dealing with doctors and insurance companies. Mr. Souders's and his staff were referred to me by a friend and I could not have asked for better. They handled every matter with professionalism and compassion. My husband spoke with Mr. Souders many times, via phone, regarding the case and my health, and was given great encouragement as well as good direction. The staff was always available to answer questions or give advice when we weren't sure what to do. They worked quickly on my behalf and got me the best results possible!! I spoke with Kelly often and she made me feel at ease and always helped me and encouraged me. I dealt with Ger more at the end of my case and it was no different. She handled every matter and took care of every last detail. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mr. Souders and his staff to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney. They are SIMPLY THE BEST!!!

Hired attorney
Bradley Souders' response: Thank you Mike! I remember our first meeting at the hospital, at your bedside, like it was yesterday. The outcome exceeded both of our expectations, especially considering we successfully got the VA to completely waive their lien; and as a result, we had a better than expected outcome. As a fellow biker, we clicked instantly, from beginning to end, to present. Thanks for your trust, confidence and friendship. Sincerely, Brad
