Stellar treatment!

I needed an attorney due to an auto accident with a very negligent driver. I ended up needing surgery and PT and was at a loss until I found Frank Lyle and his paralegal Debbie Maldonado. They were professional yet very friendly and caring. I don't think a week went by that they were not checking on ...me and following up on the process. I would definitely recommend them and call on them again for any legal need!

Hurt Due to Negligence of Another

After the first consultation and hiring Frank, I knew what could be done. Plainly. Professionally. Post having received an injury that potentially would have ended my career within my field of work which was due to another party's clear negligence, I received the best counsel that i could have fr...om Frank at the first meeting. The options of what could be done on their side was clear, and all suggestions for any action that i might take was explained in detail. My wellbeing and health as an individual was his priority. He worked through the legal processes along with me. I didn't feel at any point that I didn't have a clear picture of where my case was going or could go. Frank has definitive and refined experience. Any time I had a question or brought up any thought, he would respond with an explanation or answer that was direct, but not in any sort of a dismissive manner. Ever. If it was a concern of mine, it was a concern of his. I ended up placing my trust in him as a lawyer whom would be fighting for my best interests; which I didn't feel was a potential when it came to my health, wellbeing, and potentially my career being at risk. In return, he came through with getting a preferable settlement for the case, but ALWAYS kept my health as a priority. Not once did I not receive a question about my health status whenever i saw him; whether it be a brief appointment or hours long. As i felt the array of emotions of being disgruntled, frustrated, stressed, betrayed by another party, and worried for my future and my family's future from the time of the injury. I feel them no longer over the case. Even if things did not go the way they did, I would have felt the same. Frank did EVERYTHING he stated he would and could do as lawyer. Meeting by meeting, and following his professional suggestions and judgment, they diminished. If I ever will suggest a lawyer, I will suggest Frank until he practices no longer. Don't waste time with any other firm that he isn't ATLEAST affiliated with or refers you to himself.

Hit by a vehicle while walking in a parking lot.

I was hit by a vehicle while walking in a parking lot. I was taken to the hospital where I needed surgery, rehab, and OT for several months. We read reviews on-line and chose Springer and Lyle, LLP. Mr. Lyle and his wonderful paralegal, Debbie Maldonado, were so easy to work with. They answere...d all of our questions and explained everything in a simple way for us. During the consultation, they were very thorough and caring. Because the case was on-going over an extended period of time due to medical procedures and therapy, they kept in constant contact with us. They encouraged questions and guided us step by step. We were quite impressed with Mr. Lyle and Debbie Maldonado, Paralegal. They sorted out all the paperwork and documentation from the insurance companies and medical providers. I was extremely satisfied with the settlement. It was settled rapidly. We were quite impressed with the expertise and the professionalism of Mr. Lyle and Debbie. Both are very helpful and compassionate. We can't thank them enough and highly recommend this firm for anyone needing legal services.

Thank You

Double roll-over car crash. The Subaru saved our lives, but we both went to the hospital and one of us would need surgery, rehab, PT, OT, for several months. And what about the car and truck that wrecked each other and sent us into upside down? We've never been involved in personal injury situation. ...With so much going on and so much unclear, we got a referral from another Denton attorney to meet Frank Lyle. We are so very glad we did. The process is opaque (to us) and the requirements stringent. Frank and his team set us on a straight course, communicated often, made everything clear, and negotiated us to what we thought was fair. Thank You !

So Happy to Have Found This Firm!

Almost two years ago, my husband and I were rear-ended by a drunk driver and sustained injuries. When the decision was made to obtain legal counsel, we looked for someone local that we felt would help us through this situation. We found the SpringerLyle law firm and chose them because of the excell...ent reviews on-line. During our first visit with Mr. Lyle and his Paralegal, Debbie, we knew we had made the right choice. They were both very understanding and kind and made us feel at ease. Because our case was ongoing for an extended length of time due to the fact that we were going through medical procedures, they were constantly in touch with us and never made us feel that our case was not important to them. Mr. Lyle, with his tremendous knowledge and compassion, has our utmost respect and we can’t thank him, Debbie and the rest of his staff enough for all their help through this ordeal. We would highly recommend him to everyone we know.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
