Personal Injury Attorney

 Putting Clients First

This may be the first time -- and hopefully the last time -- you will search for a personal injury attorney Port Charlotte Florida.

For you to be here, something serious must have happened in your life which has caused great disruption, pain, and anguish.  This has likely spilled over to dramatically affect your family, as well.

I'm personal injury attorney David Harris of the Harris Law Firm, P.A.  I built this website for you.

Want Personal Attention and Service?

That's What You Get at the Harris Law Firm

At the Harris Law Firm, we represent seriously injured clients with valid claims. Unlike many other law firms -- which operate on volume, or quantity -- I focus on quality.

Because I focus on a smaller number of quality clients who have important injury claims, I can provide each and every client with personal attention and service.

1. I return your phone calls
2. I give you my cell phone to reach me after hours
3. I come to your home or hospital as needed
4. I keep you advised as to the status of the case
5. I keep you involved at every stage of the process
6. I give you my advice as to whether your case should be settled or whether we should go to trial
7. You don't get lost in a volume law firm bureaucracy
8. Here are some other examples of how we work for you.

An initial consultation is free. I also will fully explain all fees and costs to you before proceeding. Together, as a team, we will decide on the tactics best suited or your case.

Don't Become a Volume Law Firm "Refugee"

I receive calls every week from personal injury lawyer "refugees." Who are these "refugees?" They are good, decent people who hired a personal injury "mill" or volume law firm. And the story I hear is almost always the same: 

• they never spoke to their lawyer after the initial phone call -- even years after the case began
• cases drag on for years
• their lawyer was juggling hundreds of files, and had non-lawyer assistants doing most of the work just to keep up with the volume
• the lawyer, or non-lawyer staff, told the client the amount of the recovery was going to be BIG, and then after being hired, "discovered" problems and the settlement would be low
• the lawyer fees were more than the client put in their pocket

Do you want to be one of several hundred "files" your attorney is trying to stay on top of, or having your matter delegated to assistants and "case managers" (who know the case better than your own lawyer)? 

You decide. 

Put My Experience to Work for You

After you've had time to search for a personal injury lawyer in Florida, and ask questions, I'm confident you will, in the end, turn to me to handle your serious Florida personal injury claim.

I'm an experienced trial attorney who  listens to your concerns and quickly identify how I might be able to solve your problems through the legal system. If do not believe you need a lawyer, then I'll tell you that, too.

I don't like to waste your time or mine, and I don't mind referring your case to someone else if I believe that's what is best for you.

Since 1995, I have personally handled a wide range of personal injury and wrongful death claims, including auto accidents, truck accidents, slip and fall accidents, motorcycle accidents, defective products, and more. These cases have involved serious or catastrophic personal injury. I have tried cases to juries, judges, and arbitrators throughout my career.

There are Time Limits on Personal Injury Claims

Contact The Harris Law Firm Now to Get Started

Call us (239) 985-4240 or toll-free 877-274-2080 to speak to an experienced, dedicated, and aggressive personal injury attorney right away.

Many people simply hire the first personal injury attorney Punta Gorda Florida they see on television, or the East Coast law firm with the biggest personal injury lawyer Punta Gorda Florida phone book advertisement (or those refrigerator calendar magnets), or the personal injury attorney Port Charlotte Florida ad on the back of a bus, or a personal injury lawyer Port Charlotte Florida billboard, without checking that lawyer's background.

Does this sound good to you?

Instead, consider what's at stake. For personal attention, personal service, and your personal attorney, contact the Harris Law Firm today.

While my principal office is in Fort Myers, I represent persons having serious injury claims throughout Southwest Florida, including Charlotte County residents.

Seriously, how many Miami and Fort Lauderdale lawyers, for example, advertise in the Charlotte County phone book?  Believe it or not, people often hire them without ever meeting them -- maybe because they got a free magnet (those are cute -- although I would not pick my lawyer that way). Many SW Fla. firms also only have a "satellite" office in Port Charlotte, while their principal office is in Fort Myers.

On the other hand, Charlotte County families are right next door, in my backyard, so to speak, and I have litigated many cases at the Charlotte County courthouse and throughout the 20th Judicial Circuit.

Bottom line: Because I limit the number of cases I handle, I have flexibility in picking those clients throughout Southwest Florida whom I agree to represent, whether you are in Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, Englewood, or elsewhere.

The choice is yours.  Contact us today.
