Great Outcome

I had a car accident a few months ago, unfortunately I didn't think there was anything that could be done as I was in the car with someone who was at fault. I hired Paul Powell as my attorney and his office helped me throughout my entire case and explained the benefits of using my health insurance an...d obtaining the maximum compensation, which I did get. I picked up my check and was extremely grateful, since not only did I get my compensation but I feel much better.

Less Fee...but MORE Taken by THEIR MEDICAL TEAM

I had a car accident in Aug.2017. I met with their team the next day. I was told to go thru their medical services.. I was given a list ..a car rental set up..and their treatment places. I made appointments. they told me to go see these medical places they use. I never missed an appointment. I did ...everything they advised me to do. I was told by their case manager Josh.....we are still waiting on the medical discounts to get settled....It was their companies that I used so I knew they would. NOPE. I was told they are not giving me ANY discount...What? All medical providers do. I should know, I did medical billing before. I was charged OVER $16,000 in MEDICAL FEES! And I didn't have surgery...just physical therapy. No discount because their accounts dept.manager Josh told me "They see your $50,000 insurance settlement payout from the accident?! What??!!. That should have no bearing. I was never disclosed this by amyone. I never saw an attorney after my first consultation. I should of just went thru my own medical..not yours? No discounts at all? I ended up paying their MEDICAL PLACES THEY TOLD ME TO GO SEE.. MORE THAN MY SETTLEMENT ! Hidden accounting costs not disclosed prior. I was so needing the money fast I signed and was done. I feel their is a "hidden pocket" being filled to them sending you to their medical services....yet they give no medical discount?? HUMMM FISHY. I was pleased with their staff to say something positive to my first experience with a accident claim. They were the only ones keeping in contact. Never saw Paul Powell..was told he sees everyone about their case. NOPE. IT UPSETS ME EVERY TIME I SEE HIS DUMB COMMERCIALS....MORE LAWYER LESS FEE.....REALLY??? YOU BETTER ADD...EXCEPT MY MEDICAL SERVICES.... THEY GET EVEN MORE THEN YOU OR ME!

Works on Volume not for client

I was pushed into a insufficient settlement in 2022. I still have Two (2) surgeries to go. I am still suffering greatly daily and it's 2024. My case was not settled by the attorney I signed on for. They when they should go to court. Bad choice if you have spinal and head injuries.

Horrible Experience

Let me start off by saying FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO HANDLE YOUR CASE! ANYONE ELSE! I felt like I’ve had two full time jobs over the last year and a half. My normal job and holding the hand of the Paul Powell Law Firm to process my claim. If you don’t follow up, you won’t hear from the Paul Powell Law Fir...m and once you follow up you will realize all the mistakes they make throughout the entire process. The overall process was a nightmare. Zero communication, no follow up and utter incompetence. In the end due to mistakes made directly by the Paul Powell Law Firm, I received even less than I should have. After giving them opportunity after opportunity to rectify the situation I’ve given up and felt it was best to share my experience with others

We lose all around

Our accident happened 2 yrs ago and are just now getting the check. However, we are coming out on the short end. The attorney IS receiving more money then his client, so the promise of not taking more is BULL!!! We lost the truck when it was T-boned by another vehicle, we had medical injuries and l...oss of work. Our own car insurance reimbursed a partial for the truck and while the settlement did cover the medical we don't feel that for the settlement $$ we should receive so little and the attorney receive more. I won't hire again. Very disappointed in how long everything took and even more disappointed that the attorney made the most on the deal.
