How much does it cost to hire Eric for a car accidents case?

Cost depends on the type of matter, the fee model (contingency, flat, hourly), and how contested the case becomes. Eric walks through the likely range during the consult so there are no surprises.

Does Eric offer a free consultation?

Eric charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Eric's office. Some car accidents attorneys offer free consults — check Eric's current terms during booking.

How long do car accidents cases in Florida typically take?

Simple car accidents matters can wrap in a few weeks; disputed cases can run 6–18 months from intake to resolution, longer if the matter goes to trial. Eric gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

Can Eric take my case if I'm outside Fort Lauderdale?

Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Eric will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

Working with Mr. Ginnis was a pleasure. Mr. Ginnis was extremely knowledgeable and thorough in explaining all the processes that would take place. Mr. Ginnis and his team we are extremely tentative and compassionate to all of my needs and always responded in a timely manner to any issue that had surfaced, putting my concerns at ease with their professionalism. If ever I need legal council or representation in the future, Mr. Ginnis and his team will be the first and only phone call I will be making.
