Why do all those televised smiling and “grateful“ “winners” look so stupid…and uninjured? The wounded and maimed at Walter Reed Army hospital (from serving our country) are really injured and deserve that kind of a payout.
On the other hand, I wouldn’t be able to give driving directions to Winter Garden..”get on Turnpike and go south 13 Dan Newlin’s billboards and exit right, go 3 more Dan Newlin billboards, turn left and you are there”.

Hmmm. If I slipped and fell in Dan Newlins parking lot on a carelessly thrown banana peel, I wonder what the dog fight would look like if I hired Morgan and Morgan to represent me...lol

[NotGolfer]

I googled Dan and found he once worked for Morgan and Morgan. Those ads we see are aggravating. If you notice, the folks are reading the script. One couple smiles as if cued. We TiVo most everything we watch on t.v. so try to skip over the commercials. The insurance ads, the attorneys and one or two others are particularly annoying. You wonder what they pay out for advertising........

When I was still working in banking a client came to me with a settlement proposal from a well known Orlando attorney. She had tripped over a parking block in a church parking lot and was sueing the churches insurance company. The offer was for $10,000. After the attorney's fee and processing fees charged by the attorney's office she would have netted around $3000. Even though the attorney's fee is capped at a % they are allowed to tack on other fees which raises the % they actually get paid substantially

[loufromnewjersey]

Attorney fees are negotiable always at least in NJ. I have negotiated 33 1/3% for the first 500 thousand, then 25% after and 20% above 1 million.

Huge by what standard? Many California personal injury attorneys have Claims much higher than what I see in Florida.

[Ralpha]

My question is when these people tout their big winnings; is it before or after Dan has taken his chunk out of it?

[GATORBILL66]

Just remember when attorney's like him and morgan the insurance companies have to pay out. Ever wonder why are taxes are riseing at a scary rate.
This includes all insurance rates, home, car, golf carts and any other insurance we buy.

Bunch of crooks robbing us.

Did he finally clear his name?

Were those stories true?

[Bellavita]

So, what I get out of this is——-wait for it….. lawyers are bunch of crooks also.

[rjm1cc]

You might end up being taxed on the money you pay the attorney too. The answer to your question is not an easy one.

[triflex]

It's a lawsuit mill. You will never talk to Dan Newlin most likely. He is a front for a marketing campaign that he probably runs.

[NoMoSno]

If insurance companies willingly paid out what is fairly owed, you wouldn't need a lawyer to protect yourself.
