A Quick Resolution, handled with care

I was in an accident where a negligent driver hit me while I was riding my bicycle to work. That driver was dishonest with the insurance company and tried everything she could do to avoid blame when she was clearly in the wring, and the police had sited her for wreckless Driving. Dyril was amazing e...very step of the way. From our consultation and then to me hiring him for my case, I was in constant contact with both him, and his wonderful assistance Lori. They answered all of my questions and made me feel like they were truly there for me. Everything was settled quickly (under 4 months!!!) and i was compensated very fairly for this whole ordeal. I hope to never find myself in a situation again where his services are required, but if I do.... He is my attorney of choice for Life! Thanks Dyril!

Professional/Very caring

I hired Attorney Flanagan to represent me in a criminal case. From the initial consultation to the completion of our contract Attorney Flanagan was a consummate professional. He went out of his way to answer my questions as i had never been involved in the criminal justice system. He was able to g...et the charges in my case reduced and get me off of probation early. In addition, his rates are very reasonable. I would highly recommend Attorney Flanagan to anyone needing a criminal defense attorney. I am sure you won't be disappointed !

The best Lawyer ever

We hired Daryl to represent our son being charged with attempted murder..Daryl was the greatest. He got all charges dropped. He kept me on the loop with everything going on and even listened to my ideas and thoughts..My opinion really mattered..He always called me back,when I called. Any questions or... concerns I had he always addressed them. He put up with all my yelling and attitudes still while providing superior lawyer service. He did not just work the case. He showed that he actually cared about my Son.I would reccomend him a 1,000 times. And whats a good lawyer with out a wonderful secretary by his side..Lori was the best..I called her Alot,she never rejected my calls or made me feel like I was aggravating her,she always answered with a smile.I was afraid of the experience and service I would receive from all the lawyer horror stories Ive heard,but they put my mind at ease and restored my faith in lawyers..I just wanna say thank you so much for beliving in my son,never giving up and helping secure a second chance at life for him...We love you Daryl and Lori

Happy in Texas

Attorney Flanagan was the only attorney that I thought of when I needed an attorney for a relative in Florida. Him and his staff were very efficient, professional, and kept me abreast of the court proceedings. His services are also very affordable. I definitely recommend Attorney Flanagan and his sta...ff.

BEST CHOICE EVER!

I have had the pleasure of working in the same building as Mr. Flanagan for 2 years now. I see how he and his amazing legal secretary (Lori) deal with their clients on a daily basis. I was impressed as an outsider looking in. Unfortunately, I had a situation where I needed an attorney. I was scared t...o death. Never having to hire an attorney before, Dyril was my first choice. He immediately put my mind at ease and patiently explained everything to me as my case progressed. He was able to have all charges dropped, which is more than I could have ever asked for. He was amazing, knowledgeable and most of all very kind. In my professional life I have dealt with many attorneys and could have picked any of them to represent me. I chose Dyril and have to say it was THE BEST CHOICE EVER! I would recommend Mr. Flanagan to anyone and everyone!
