All law firms are not the same. 

After an injury, choosing the right firm to represent you can be the key factor that will impact the outcome of your case. 

So yes, we’re about to toot our own horn a bit here, but we absolutely have the data to back it up. 

You may have heard us being referred to as “America’s Largest Injury Law Firm”. Here’s what that means and why Morgan & Morgan is an injury firm like no other. 

 

America’s Largest Injury Law Firm

With over 1,000 attorneys, Morgan & Morgan has more attorneys and offices than any other personal injury firm in the US. This matters for two reasons. One, fighting a case is expensive and two, it requires experience. Here’s what that means. 

Personal injury cases can take time. Big corporations and insurance companies love to drag things out, thinking that you’ll just give up. Well we don’t. We’ll take it to the courtroom if necessary.

It’s expensive to fight a case for so long and to invest in hiring the best-in-class experts and investigators to get to the bottom of it. A small firm may not have the same resources to do so. 

Then there’s the experience. Different types of incidents require different case strategies, so having someone who has worked on cases like yours is incredibly important. 

For example, filing a lawsuit against a trucking company is very different from filing against an insurance company for a regular auto accident case. The same is true for specialized forms of personal injury like medical malpractice and products liability versus a slip and fall claim. The people on the other side have different types of insurance and different legal responsibilities, so having an attorney that’s experienced in your case type ensures that it’s covered from all angles.

We have experience in 50 practice areas, with teams that have a deep focus on your specific type of case.

 

35+ Years of Experience

With experience comes wisdom. After fighting for our clients for over 35 years, we’ve learned a thing or two. With a treasure trove of data, we know what works. 

Each of our attorneys can tap into our internal information gathered from hundreds of thousands of cases, reference thousands of similar trials we’ve won, get in touch with our wide network of experts, and lean on the experience of senior attorneys. 

 

Our Reputation 

Being 35 doesn’t just mean we’re a millennial. It also means that we’ve built a reputation over time that the other side knows well. They know we don’t give in easily, and will do the same for you. Don’t believe us? Just check out our results. The numbers speak for themselves.

 

Knowing the Other Side 

Our attorneys have won countless cases against big-name insurance companies and corporations, making them well-versed in the tactics they use. Many of our attorneys were formerly employed by these very same businesses, allowing us to evaluate cases from both sides.This kind of view is an essential factor in our success.

 

It’s Easy 

It’s easy to get started. Start a claim from anywhere in just a few minutes. No need to visit us in an office. 

We take client experience seriously. So with 24/7 service there’s always someone to answer your questions or concerns, day or night. Plus, we’re able to get in touch in whatever way works best for you: whether that’s a phone call, text message, or through the Morgan & Morgan app. 

 

A Family Firm

Our origin story matters. Morgan & Morgan was founded after John Morgan’s brother, Tim, was paralyzed from the neck down in a terrible accident. With the poor legal representation his family had, they were unable to obtain the compensation they deserved. 

Everyone deserves justice. That’s why John Morgan vowed to do better and create a firm where everyone is treated like he wishes Tim was. 

As a family firm, we’re fighting for other families with one mission: for the people. That’s why we work on a contingency fee basis, which means we don’t get paid unless you do. Everyone, regardless of how much money they have, can hire the best attorneys to fight in their corner. 

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

How Much Does Morgan & Morgan Cost?

One of the biggest concerns people have when hiring a lawyer is cost. Legal fees can be expensive, and many people assume they can’t afford top-tier legal representation. That’s where Morgan & Morgan’s unique fee structure comes in.

Morgan & Morgan operates on a contingency fee basis, meaning clients pay nothing upfront. That’s right—the Fee Is Free®, and you don’t pay a dime unless we win. If we successfully recover compensation for you, we take a percentage of the settlement or verdict. If not, you owe nothing. This ensures that anyone can afford the best legal representation available—regardless of their bank balance.

This structure also aligns the firm’s interests with those of its clients—Morgan & Morgan only gets paid if their clients do. Unlike some law firms that charge hourly fees regardless of the outcome, Morgan & Morgan is fully invested in securing the best possible results for their clients.

All of these can leave long-lasting physical and emotional scars. Being supported by a dedicated attorney can be very important when dealing with sensitive family issues such as nursing home abuse.

 

How Does Morgan & Morgan Choose Cases?

With thousands of potential cases coming in every day, we carefully evaluate which cases to take on. Our firm’s goal is to help as many people as possible while ensuring each case gets the resources it needs.

We look at several factors when deciding whether to accept a case:

  • Liability: Is there clear evidence that another party is responsible for the injury or damages?
  • Severity of Injury: Serious injuries that result in medical bills, lost wages, and long-term suffering are prioritized.
  • Potential for Compensation: Cases with strong potential for a fair settlement or verdict are pursued aggressively.
  • Merit of the Case: The firm only takes cases we believe we can win, ensuring that clients receive dedicated and effective representation.

While some law firms turn away cases that may require extensive litigation, Morgan & Morgan has the resources and experience to take on even the most challenging cases.
