Working with Mr. Baez and Kimberly was a wonderful experience. Anytime that you need to enlist legal services there is a certain degree of uncertainty and anxiety. They were very professional, provided great advice, and was in frequent contact throughout the whole process. Not only did feel very comfortable with their representation, the results were beyond satisfying. I can't say enough about Mr. Baez and Kimberly... THANK YOU for everything.

Scott and his team are truly amazing and will work hard for your rights. From the time you walk in you are welcomed at the reception with a warm smile by Isabel, then the legal team in the back is always ready to help you. Vicki was outstanding at her job and as busy as she is, she was still so responsive to my concerns over the phone or getting back to me quickly over email. Scott was an amazing attorney and made me feel like I was his friend and truly cared for me and guided me through the whole process. If he couldn’t be there I was in good hands with Marci. I have had previous experience

Mr. Smith and his staff were amazing every step of the way during the intimidating legal process to those of us who are not used to it. They were easy to reach and kept in close contact throughout the entire process making sure we understood everything that was going on and answering any questions that we may have had along the way. Mr. Smith came highly recommended and from day one it was apparent why. Without hesitation my husband and I would use Mr. Smith's services again should we need it. Great recovery and excellent to work with!

Prior to this accident, I was in another accident (neither of which were my (or my driver's) fault). In the prior accident, I was with a law firm that was supposed to be the best. Not true! They did not keep me up to date as to what was happening so I switched to another lawyer. Needless to say, this guy was just awful. It took three years for the outcome, which was not very good. In this recent accident, we used Mr. Scott Smith's firm. What a difference! Every step of the way, they kept us informed as to what was going on. The time frame was so much faster and the outcome was amazingly very good

Nelson helped navigate us through an unfortunate situation. His experience and knowledge in dealing with our situation was impressive. I would highly recommend him and his amazing staff ( Kim and Yaiselin). Nelson is easy to talk to and is always readily available to answer any questions or concerns. His staff is also very kind, knowledgeable and efficient.

Scott Smith was very responsive to my case and kept me well informed about the progress that was being made on my behalf. Every time I had a question or inquiry he always took the time to personally answer very swiftly. I am very pleased with the outcome and I would like to thank all of the firm for a job well done. If anyone needs legal advice concerning a personal injury case these kind folks are highly recommended.

Atty. Nelson Baez was the first Attorney I ever experienced. Obviously, being traumatized by my auto accident, I needed someone to advise me what to expect and do. After speaking to Nelson and Kim, I knew I was going to have peace of mind. My case was settled and I received payment today and can not thank Nelson and his staff enough for all that they did for me.
As a retired Coast Guardsman, I can only give the highest form of appreciation by saying " KUDOS " to Nelson and his hand picked team.
