Mrs. Antenucci

Ms. Seidule has represented me twice for motor vehicle accidents that were not my fault. Each time, she treated me as if I were her only case. Her attention to detail, compassion for my injuries, and professionalism were above and beyond what I expected. Each time, she delivered on her word for every...thing we discussed and agreed on. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking the best PI attorney in Florida.

Experience you can count on

In 2013 I was injured while walking my dog near my residence at Newport Isles - my injury was the result of my HOA not properly overseeing the construction that resulted in my requiring surgery and rehabilitation that took the better part of 2 years. The HOA tried to use every excuse they could of t...o evade taking on the liability for their oversight and attempted to place the fault on me opposed to their misconduct. Gloria Seidule stood by me through my case, even at times when I thought about giving up or attempting to escape having to relive that moment again. She supported my beliefs in pursuing justice and always took a stand to look out for me and my future. Her services and personal attention in my case was by far the reason for me being able to win my case and another victim to the "Big Bad HOA Management Companies of SLC". She prepared me by letting me know what to expect throughout my case and always gave me the worst case scenario, even though at times it was not what I wanted to hear. Honesty is big with me, and throughout my case I acquired a lot of respect for Gloria, because I know an "HONEST" attorney is a rare find. She would stop at a moment notice to take my calls and listen to my concerns. I have never looked kindly on attorneys, thinking they were always more into the case for themselves opposed to being in it for their clients, however, after meeting Gloria, my views since my case have changed and I wouldn't hesitate contacting her again in the event I am ever in need of her services in the future. If you are considering seeking legal advise or are in need of an attorney that you can trust and that is dedicated to their practice, you would be wise to contact Gloria Seidule and see for yourself the dedication and experience she can offer you. THANK YOU Gloria for being who you are!!!!!!

Great Attorney I highly recommend her to family and friends

Gloria is a very knowledgeable attorney. Exceptional, Outstanding, superb, just a few words to describe her. I have used her twice for two different cases, and her professionalism is second to none. She was able to settle both cases and received a great settlement for both. It wasn't easy, but sh...e is very patient and understanding. Her clients are her priority. Besides being a great attorney she is also a great person and will fight to always make sure you are happy and satisfied. What else can I say about Gloria Seidule? Well I am sure she'll be my attorney next time I need one, you should do the same.

Extremely disappointed

I hired Gloria Seidule in order to protect my interest in a personal injury case and was seriously disappointed to the point that I had no choice but to terminate her and source new attorneys. I hired Ms. Seidule based on a case that she had advertised claiming a large award against a major retailer;... however, I found out shortly after hiring her that it was not a settled case and yet she used it to attract business without clarifying the true status of the case. By law, attorneys must add disclaimers that inform potential clients of actual recovery to the victim and whether or not the case is settled; she willingly omitted all of this information. This was very deceitful and costly in my case. Ms. Seidule not only wanted 40% in attorney fees, but she crafted a way to force responsibility upon me for another grossly inflated contingency fee. This fee exceeded the 40%, only for a friend and cohort of hers to do work all other attorneys lay out as part of their cost to build the case, thus the reason they take 40%. Furthermore, Ms. Seidule initiated a consortium claim for my daughter that caused a motion for sanctions that my new attorneys had to drop quickly to avoid further legality issues that were imminent. It was extremely questionable and drove me to file a complaint with the Florida Bar Association and now I'm having to get ready to file a malpractice suit to retrieve financial damages that I am facing as a result of her abusing my trust and convincing me I needed to hire her friend. Although the Florida Bar Association addressed it and informed her that they do not condone her conduct and told her to adjust her conduct accordingly, I am still being sued for $72,500 by Ms. Seidule's friend and business cohort - the same individual she claimed we needed. This video production is estimated to be worth $5,000. to $10,000. max, based on similar productions that attorneys normally pay for recovery upon settlement. It has now been a year since my new attorneys settled the case for a lot more than she insisted I take if offered at mediation. Additionally, I still have to fight to undo Ms. Seidule's unethical tactics which grossly increased my legal fees for a video that was not necessary or ever used to settle my case. It's the opinion of many that Ms. Seidule was protecting her own interests and not my interest, which is what attorneys are bound by oath to do. Considering the experience and all of the facts, I cannot recommend this attorney.

Responsive and got results from the insurance company

After calling Ms. Seidule after my accident, I felt confident to have my case with her an the staff. She handled all the insurance calls, explained my medical reports and advised me about the recovery process. When it was time for court she made me feel confident and the end results were more that I ...could have imagined to help me with future surgeries. Anytime you need a lawyer who is committed to her clients. Call Gloria Seidule

"I have referred many cases over the years to Ms. Seidule. She is highly competent and skillful in her representation. While there are many lawyers out there that will take on any case regardless of the merits and advertise each and every settlement or jury verdict that they obtain, Ms. Seidule is not one of those. She is an unsung hero in the world of Medical Malpractice and Personal Injury."
