THE BULLDOG

Todd was the ABSOLUTE BEST.......I called him my Bulldog, first off he and his staff actually return your phone calls, keep you informed of progress of case and really DO CARE. I have never seen someone who went "ALL IN" for anyone the way that Todd did for me, he dug and dug until every stone was tu...rned and then some. He even set Florida Case Law in my case, his staff is so AWSOME!!!! They answered my calls and trust me that was ALOT and they said call back anytime you want......Todd not only WON my case but got me everything that there was to get from them, I very highly recommend TODD STERN for you and anyone that wants the BEST. I'm SO glad he was on my side and not against me.

Great personal injury attorney

After my auto accident with an errant taxi, I was referred to Todd Stern by the Fran Haash Law Group. They told me this was because Mr. Stern is the best litigation attorney they know of, and they were right. The insurance company was based out of NY, and had been dragging their heels paying for auto... repairs and medical bills. But once Todd took over my case, things started happening very quickly. He filed summons, petitions, demands, objections… very timely and very aggressively representing my case. Every step of the way, Mr. Stern was on the phone with me keeping me informed of what was happening and what I could expect. He is confident, experienced, consistent and persistent. In the depositions, he kept the defense attorneys on their heels. During mediation, he stood his ground until the defense gave in and settled for a substantial amount. His assistants Lisa and Judy were both wonderful to work with. Lisa coordinated between my different physicians and hospitals, negotiated their astronomical bills down to the bare minimum expense, and was always available to take my calls to provide me with real time updates as things occurred. Judy was in constant communication with me, as well, emailing documents that needed signatures and explaining what everything meant in layman’s terms. I had the pleasure of meeting both ladies and thanking them in person. I am very pleased with the outcome of my personal injury case. Everything was handled efficiently, accurately, and with open communication. I can’t overstate the level of professionalism and determination demonstrated in the representation provided by Todd Stern and his team.

A Lion of an Attorney

In March 2014, a minivan struck my husband’s car from behind. The impact forced my husband’s car into the vehicle in front of him. Fortunately, everyone survived the triple crash, but my husband required multiple surgeries to his back. He has lost the ability to do many of the things he once loved.... Fran Haash Law Group referred us to Mr. Stern. He proved himself to be an outstanding advisor and advocate. He is a superb communicator. He explained every development, provided frequent updates, and swiftly responded to all our questions and concerns. Candid and honest, he does not sugar coat anything. He utilized his skill and legal expertise to turn each step of the legal process to our advantage. Just as a lion's roar is one of the most terrifying sounds in the animal kingdom, Mr. Stern’s calm, commanding voice struck fear in the mediation room. The opposition’s decision to settle our case was a wise one, as I have no doubt that Mr. Stern would have triumphed in court. Mr. Stern’s excellent judgement is also demonstrated by his choice of exceptional staff. His assistant, Ms. Leavens, is compassionate, supportive, and provided amazing customer care. We couldn’t be more pleased with the management and outcome of our case.

Only Choose Him!!

Where do I begin? Todd Stern is an excellent lawyer! He is Two steps above the rest! My case was a very long hard fought process. The defense in my automobile accident case was extremely competent but they were simply over matched. I watched Todd in action in depositions, The defense attorney's were ...so frightened and intimidated by him that they were literally sweating profusely. Todd's Talent, Will, Tenacity, and Professionalism is second to none! Todd made sure that I was kept abreast of my case the entire time, His strategy played out perfectly! I also want to give a shout out to Lisa, She is amazing! Judy and the rest of the staff are always on top of things! Todd and his staff made took a terrible situation and made it the best I could have possibly asked for. Thank You so much for all you have done for my Family and Myself. In closing- If you have a Personal Injury Case and you don't hire Todd Stern, Well-That's on you!! D.A. Tampa,Fl.
