Personal Injury Case

I found Attorney Plumbar and his team to be professional and highly competent in representing me in my auto accident case. Joseph educated me on what to expect, the possible outcomes and the overall timeline. Throughout the entire process, Joseph encouraged me to be patient and after years of ...back and forth with the insurance company, I was more than satisfied with the outcome of my case. I would recommend the Plumbar Law Group to anyone looking for excellent legal representation. Thank you Joseph!

Consistent & Professional (MVA)

Mr. Plumbar and his staff are hands down the best law firm you could retain for your legal needs. I was in an auto accident in May 2018 Beaumont, Texas and was initially represented by another law firm in South Carolina. The South Carolina attorney that I had prior to Mr. Plumbar was not at all helpf...ul, sat on my case almost a 1 year and did nothing while I was going thru medical treatments (Neurology appointments, physical Therapy etc.). With no hesitation I released that attorney once I was able to do for myself. After doing my research and reaching out to my colleagues that live in the Texas area Mr. Plumbar was highly recommended by one of them. Each time I called and emailed I always received a reply or a follow up call from Ramon or Mr. Plumbar. Mr. Plumbar was able to get me the policy limit. One satisfied client! Again, thank you for sticking by me during this stressful journey.

Hands down the best !!!

After a accident changed our lives we started looking for a lawyer. Our accident thankfully was not life-threating but changed our day to day life completely. We're 2 years in and we still have a ways to go on treatment that is just going to take time to mend. After speaking with a few lawyers an...d being passed around like just another case number with very few answers to my questions we were lucky enough to get referred to Mr. Plumbar by a family friend. Initially speaking with him I could already tell the difference between him and all the other lawyers I had spoke with previously. He was very knowledgeable and professional. In the middle of our case the pandemic hit and a shut down to top it all off. He navigated it with dedication that didn't falter even during unprecedented times. We are very happy with the outcome of our case, he never stopped fighting to get us what we deserved and what we needed to continue our treatment. He is definitely the man you want in your corner.

Professional, Quality, Responsive

From start to finish Mr. Joseph K Plumbar was very professional.  Diligently working to get me the understanding and knowledge of my case.  Fast and easy to talk too.  If I had questions, he had answers. He never stopped fighting for me to get more for all my medical bills, therapies, and compensatio...n for pain and suffering. The whole experience was very easy and I could not be more appreciative of the hard work Mr. Plumbar put in.  Thank you very much!!
