Tina Willis

Unlike many other personal injury and accident law firms, who have paralegals providing instruction, and negotiating with insurance companies, Ms. Willis knows that having an attorney explain how best to maximize case value is essential.  She does not rely on heavy case volume, rather than high quality service for each client, to make a living.

Ms. Willis graduated in 1996 from Florida State University College of Law, second in her class. She was sought after and hired by some of the largest corporate and insurance defense law firms in the country.  During her tenure at these firms, she learned all of the detailed work that must go into high value accident and injury cases. She also formerly worked as a law professor, before shifting to working behind the scenes for other injury, malpractice and accident attorneys, again in high value, multi-million dollar cases, drafting winning motions and briefs in hard fought courtroom battles.  She opened her own practice committed to providing that same gold star service to all of her accident and injury clients.  Many other firms rely on paralegals to give instruction (something clients should run away from), as well as having those same paralegals literally negotiating and settling claims with insurance companies. 

By contrast, Ms. Willis spends as much time as needed with all of her new car accident, slip and fall, wrongful death lawsuits, trucking accidents, and medical malpractice clients, to give them all of the information they need to help her get the most money from their cases. This involves explaining how medical records are used in lawsuits, as well as how to interact with doctors, other medical providers, and health insurance companies, to ensure that the severity of the injury, and life impact, is properly recorded (which is the only way to get the evidence needed to get the most money from each case)  She further explains the other techniques used by insurance companies to lower case value, including the surveillance clients can expect, as well as what evidence is needed to get the most money from these cases.

Don't fall trap for law firms who will have paralegals essentially representing you, and relying on high volumes of cases to operate.  That is not the way legal representation should be.
