I was hit from behind on my rear bumper and i called the largest law firm in the United States as they advertise that on national tv. They accepted my case immediately. i had to do physical therapy and after the whiplash i needed 6 pillows in various positions to be able to get any sleep. I made all dr. appts. on time and did everything that I was advised by the law firm that represented me. I was told 3 or 4 times that they were acquiring the wal-mart camera video showing the driver that hit me ran a stop sign. This was an easy case, who runs a stop sign seperating the parking lots at wal-mart doing approximately 25 miles an hour and hits a car in the middle of my back bumper and caused severe whiplash?? Then the 2 lawyers that represented me ghosted me after approximately 6 months of attorneys and client working together, then suddenly ignoring all polite messages left when they wouldn't answer their phone nor return my calls. they would not even answer my 6 or 7 e-mails i left and finally after 6 months or so i received a reply that these 2 attorneys were not with the firm anymore and too much time had elapsed so the w-mart film was not retrievable anymore. I even made a physical trip to their office in Fort Myers and no one would talk to me, except the receptionist. You can't make this stuff up!! I called 4 more law firms and they all declined my case because the video of the incident was not available anymore. I stressed to the giant law firm how important the video was when this all started, it was the foundation of my entire case. My last try was to Goldstein Buckley,Cechman,Rice Purz, Smith and Smith! Truthfully I had almost given up but my case was accepted by their firm. i cannot say enough about Andrea Smith, Dianna Marin and Starla Dalila. This law firm did my case the old fashioned way, meeting face to face in private conference rooms and shaking hands looking you square in the face! Goldstein and Buckley returned evey phone call and if i requested a face time meeting, it was quickly achieved!!! So much time had gone by i did'nt expect much in compensation for my bodily injuries. I was patient and was competely dumfounded when the settlement came in and the case was over.Everyone I had contact with at the firm showed the utmost polite professionalism and any and all questions I had thru this whole stressfull ordeal were answered always on the same day that i contacted them. Versus The" largest" so called law firm in the United States, who wouldn't and never met me face to face, wouldn't return my phone calls or e-mails after 6 months of communicating with them and then they GHOSTED ME!!!! My Mom used to say"THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING" The truth, intelligence,honesty and proffesionalism is at Goldstein Buckley,Cechman,Rice Purz, Smith and Smith!! I strongly advise anyone who needs legal representation for bodily injury to call the right place the first call you make!! DON'T WASTE ANY TIME WITH THE SO CALLED BRAGGARTS WHO CONSTANTLY ADVERTISE ON NATIONAL TV THAT THEY ARE THE BIGGEST LAW FIRM IN THE UNITED STATES!!! I am close to 80 years old, and Here is my testimony and the proof is in the pudding!!!!!!!

Our family is incredibly grateful to Goldstein Buckley, Cechman, Rice, Purtz, Smith & Smith for representing us during one of the most difficult seasons of our lives after our son was involved in a terrible car accident. From the very beginning, their team demonstrated professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for our family.

We worked closely with Andrea Smith and Diana Marin, who were always available to answer our questions, clearly explain the process, and keep us informed every step of the way. We never felt like just another case. The entire firm operated with integrity, organization, and a clear determination to represent us well.

It was evident that everyone involved was committed to securing the best possible outcome for our son and our family. In a time filled with uncertainty and stress, their steady guidance and dedication made a meaningful difference.

We highly recommend Goldstein Buckley, Cechman, Rice, Purtz, Smith & Smith to anyone in need of strong, compassionate legal representation.

This firm is amazing! Chris and Andrea Smith are so compassionate. They make you feel seen and heard! They have a wonderful staff and I would definitely recommend using them! I am extremely pleased!
It should be noted "America's largest law firm! (M & M)" refused my case. Jokes on them!

Diana and Andrea were both amazing and my family and I could not be more grateful. I got into a bad car accident with our son and we contacted them right away, Diana was amazingly nice on our first meeting and made my family and I feel so comfortable. Our second meeting, which was the first with Andrea, our attorney, went great as well and she was extremely nice and understanding. They were very kind to change weeks if we were having a hard time getting there as well. I was also very happy with the communication….they were great to call and email me with any new information. Overall, could not recommend them anymore! I didn’t just feel like another number and that’s exactly what I was looking for when I came here, so thank you all so much!!

I lost my husband in an accident last April and this law firm has been a great help in assisting me with his case. Andrea (Attorney) and Diana (personal injury claim analyst) were both very compassionate and so helpful! Their support and dedication, honored my husband as they diligently worked hard in his case. They took this case as if it was their own and I truly felt their support. To anyone who is looking for a dedicated team who works hard and truly has your best interest at heart, I highly recommend this law firm!
