Posted by Cassandra | March 13, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

So Glad Mr. Jacobs took my case

I was in a hit and run accident. My insurance company is known for paying out very little and most times having to be sued instead of settling. I did not have "PIP" but did have uninsured motorist. I was informed by the insurance company when I signed up that I really did not need PIP because ...I had medical included in my coverage. Turned out after my accident it really was not much due to the fact that I have permanent damage and will be on medication for the rest of my life and require more treatments. Mike Jacobs fought for me. My payout was the "MAXIMUM" amount of coverage I had for my medical and in addition a payout of almost $14,000.00 to fix my automobile "without totaling my car". This was all settled out of court. I'm so grateful Mike took my case. He was always so respectful and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him.

Unmatched Judgment and Ability

Recently my wife and I had occcasion to need an auto accident lawyer. We are very picky about who does legal work for us and how it is done. Mike has not disapppointed us. He and his team have been efficient, timely, and helpful. And even though ours is not the biggest case in the world, Mike has ta...ken the time to explain things and to apply his strategic thinking and skill to our case. Highly recommended !!!
