Orlando personal injury lawyer Tina Willis is truly one of a kind. After getting almost no attention from another"big name" law firm, I called Tina Willis Law. She works with a small team of very experienced lawyers and paralegals, mostly in more serious injury and accident cases. Everyone was phenomenal. I received real white glove treatment. They set up my medical treatment and explained the entire process. They are highly recommended!! Also, they dealt very well with a few problems in my case, including no witnesses. I was amazed with the outcome and couldn't be happier. Call this office if you want to be treated like your lawyer actually cares about your case. And has the skill and experience needed to get outstanding results.

Tina willis is such a professional and serious Lawyer. My case was handled by the best, which tells me that she is a great leader and manage her staff perfectly. Dealing with Carried Roane was exactly like Tina Willis first told me, a very professional experience. I never felt that my case was rushed or mishandled. The outcome was way more than what I was expecting. Not a money Lawyer. I’m very greatful for your time Ms. Willis.

In November 2016 my husband and I were rear-ended by a Tractor-Trailer on I-75 in GA resulting in back& neck injuries. We contacted a Central Fl prominent billboard law firm and the next day had a visit from an attorney. After 19 months with this law firm, On July 1,2018 I received a phone call from our attorney stating the law firm was dropping our case but we were being referred to an attorney in Atlanta that specializes in truck accidents. After another 2 months we received a letter dated October 3,2018 that the attorney in Atlanta had never opened a file for our case and informed us the statute of limitations would be up on November 29,2018.
I Googled attorneys and I was sooo Lucky to find Tina Willis Law Firm. I called that evening and she immediately listened to my situation and instructed me what steps to take to obtain our files from the other attorney’s office. Several text messages and phone calls with Tina Willis and she referred us to an attorney in GA who reviewed our files and has agreed to represent my husband and I.
If not for Tina Willis taking her own time to help us we would have never been able to get an Attorney to accept our case.
Tina Willis should be the top attorney to call if you ever need someone who is willing to help you and fight on your side.
We are definitely recommending Tina Willis Law Firm for her Professional Attention and Caring Attitude.
After my accident I didn't think I would ever be able to work in ny job again. Plus I was worried about my health insurance being canceled. And then not getting the surgery that I needed. i am so grateful to have found Tina Willis. She answered every single question thai I had (many) aboit my auto insurance how to get my surgery and how I could recover the money I was losing at my job. I HIGHLY recommend Ms Willis for any accident. She works woth a small team of lawyers and paralegals and all were responsive. She personally spent a couple of hours telling me about the process. She is easy to talk to never rushing and took care of everything. I never expected to get rich, but Willis Law got me the driver's policy limits on insurance pretty quickly. I'm so very thankful to have foubd this group of people.

I almost lost my case after hiring another billboard orlando personal injury attorney. There I had a junior lawyer working on my case. He told me that I wouldn't get more than 2 k after expenses. A friend told me to call Tina. She was promt, professional, and responsive. We were able to settle for more than the other lawyer said it was worth. She explained how she searched for other available policies. She has a background working court the insurance companies so she better understands what they do. She is a fighter and always had my best interest in mind. Phone consultations are free. At first I want able to talk to her because I Already had a lawyer. Definitely worth calling. Lots off explaining how the process works. I think she is the best choice. Very happy with the outcome even if I didn't get more money I would have been happier with Ms Willis. Confusing and long process but being informed really helps. You have to deal with a lot of things there is no way I could have done it alone.

You don't ever think you will have an auto accident and get seriously injured. When we did, we didn't know who to call. We had a friend who highly recommend Ms Willis. We felt comfortable talking to her right away. She was very patient while explaining the whole process and I felt sure she was going to take care of us, which she did. There were a few problems in the case, but she has no problem with them. I can't say enough good things about this lawyer. A true Or as Orlando gem!

Great personal injury attorney who really works hard for her clients. She is incredibly smart and explains things in a way you can understand. She was always available when I had a question and got my case resolved in a timely manner and for an amount I was very happy with. If you’ve been injured in an auto accident or slip and fall, you should definitely hire her. You won’t be disappointed.

If you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of needing a personal injury attorney, I highly recommend Tina Willis. I found myself in that situation due to an accident while on vacation. I didn't realize that I would need an attorney when the accident first happened. Soon after returning home and trying to deal with risk management regarding the accident, I realized that I was going to need some legal help.
I researched online and found Tina Willis. I had a great feeling as soon as I found her, my instinct was that she was the one. I didn't have that positive feeling from any other attorney that I had researched. And I always say never go against your instinct. I am sure glad I followed my own advice and called her.
We had a phone consultation and she fully explained the process and all options available to me. She was very professional through the entire case. She returned my calls and emails promptly.
She certainly did not let me down. Quite the opposite, the outcome exceeded my expectations. If you want someone that is going to work hard for you, treat you with respect and have your best interest in mind, you need Tona Willis on your side.

Tina is an excellent personal injury lawyer. One of her most valuable traits is that she is always available for her clients and she takes time to talk with them whenever she is needed. Not many lawyers genuinely care about their clients like Tina does. And, not many lawyers are able to get the top results that Tina does in the Orlando area on wrongful death cases, slip and fall cases, and auto accident cases. I give Tina Willis my highest recommendation to those in the greater Orlando area who are looking for a personal injury attorney.

Makes everything easy to understand in the way she explains what is going to happen and why.

Met with Ms Willis today at her office in Orlando. We discussed my slip and fall case and I signed up. Tina Willis was referred to me by a friend of mine who needed a car accident lawyer. He told me that she is the best attorney I will find in Orlando. After meeting with Ms Willis or Tina as I now call her, I am confident she will do a great job. This is my first time hiring an lawyer so I was nervous, but Tina made me feel so much relief. She explained the process. All the steps and to be patient because sometimes it takes awhile. I would definitely recommend Tina Willis for you if unfortunately you are in a car accident or hurt in someone's property.

I can't say enough about the team of Tina Willis and her partner, but I’ll try.
I got into an accident in August of 2017 on International Drive in Orlando, FL. The other driver, a tourist from the UK, was at fault and admitted it at the scene. Police and ambulance were called, somehow I still ended up dizzy driving my wrecked car home. In my driveway, I called one of the major Orlando car accident firms; huge mistake. From the start, they assigned my case to a very robotic-like paralegal. Our first fallout was when I asked to get a copy of my medical bills up to that point (which was only chiropractic bills at that point). She responded by excitedly saying, “We found a million dollars in your case!” At a time when I was physically hurting from my injuries, and losing money from my missed time from work, this did not impress me. I responded by saying, “Ok, can I get a copy of my bills though.” I never got them... Later, she sent a demand to the insurance company for $1M. They politely responded that my injuries had nothing to do with my accident with their insured and offered $15k to get rid of me. They even accused me of being in a subsequent accident I was never in. Mind you, by this time the chiropractor had sent me out for an MRI which reported that I had herniations in my spine at c6 and 7, and also at s5/l1. The herniated lumbar disc also had an annular tear. I was referred out to a spine surgeon who suggested spinal injections for the pain. The injections didn’t help, and I ultimately had decompression surgery. Three days after surgery, while leaking fluid from my back and dizzy from pain killers, the boss of this law firm insensitively requested for me to come to his office after I complained about his paralegal. Not thinking clearly, I went. While there, he spoke about how expensive my case was going to be (since the defendant lived in the uk), and that he’d be willing to offer 20% contingency fees if I stayed with the firm. I agreed and gave them another chance. Another mistake. They filed a lawsuit, and I met a new lawyer who’d be representing me. He was nice until he assumed as a black business owner that I didn’t have tax returns to show the insurance company for my loss wage claim. Absurd but true... His legal assistant also missed an important deadline to respond to a defense motion. I threatened to leave, and the boss once again reassured me that he’d take care of me and the associates assumptions. He also reassigned my case to a new lawyer. The new lawyer was younger and seemed easy to communicate with, but had the same issue of missing deadlines that I caught by staying informed on the clerk of courts website (actually caught him twice). It was at this point I had finally had enough. I called them all out and start searching for a new firm. Also, I had gotten another round of injections and fusion surgery to my neck. Another lumbar surgery was still potentially about to happen. I stumbled across Tina Willis and she immediately stood out from the other personal injury lawyers because on her website she left a number to text. I texted her and she quickly responded. She also introduced me to her partner, who was really hip and communicated well with me. I really felt a good energy from them both and I signed up. Almost immediately, the insurance company started acting differently. They all of a sudden communicated more, and pushed to move the case along faster (they had canceled other events in the past). I never heard anything more about the subsequent accident, and they were now actually making strides to resolve my case. They never did this in 12 months of litigation from the other firm. Only when Tina and her partner got involved is when they started playing nice. I can’t lie, it felt good having two experienced lawyers representing me. I really saw the true aggressive lawyers they are. Needless to say, I walked away with a handsome settlement of 550K instead of $15k. Tina and her partner are THE BEST!!! If you’re reading this: HIRE THEM NOW!!

Ms. Willis primarily handles serious accident & wrongful death cases. I can't say enough good things about her. She and her awesome team absolutely WILL FIGHT HARD to get you every last penny you deserve. When other law firm that handle a higher volume of cases don't take the time needed to learn everything they need to know about you and your case to get the most money.
Ms. Willis gets into the nitty-gritty details to uncover any facts that support you getting more money in your pocket at the end of your case. Things like learning all about your life, how your injuries are affecting your day to day life, so that she can tell your story at mediation or trial.
If you have a lost wages claim, she will dig into the documentation needed to prove that part of your case, too. The devil really is in the details with maximizing these cases -- which you learn when you see her and her team in action. Insurance companies and corporations will not write a large check unless you have really good evidence to prove that you didn't cause the accident. You have to prove all of these things and need lots of facts, records, witnesses, details, etc, etc. Ms. Willis and her team leave NO stone unturned to gather the absolute BEST facts to prove your case. This is the way to walk away knowing you got the best deal.
I am a huge fan of Ms. Willis and highly recommend you give her a call!

Ms. Willis is by far the most committed, compassionate, aggressive, accessible, and hardest working personal injury and accident attorney in the Orlando area. She shows an unmatched passion for justice and commitment to her clients. Ms. Willis treats her clients like friends or family. Instead of handing off to a case manager or paralegal, either Ms. Willis, or the two other lawyers who work with her (both also fantastic), personally and promptly respond to texts, emails, and calls. Ms. Willis and the other lawyers take the time to explain the issues involved in proving these cases. As a former law professor, Ms. Willis is also uniquely suited to understand complicated legal issues in the most serious and catastrophic injury cases. She is simply an incredible attorney and person, and the other lawyers are too. And they get the best results for their clients!

I was involved in a very serious motorcycle accident in the Orlando area. I broke several bones and needed two surgeries, not to mention I could barely walk for months. I called a couple of big law firms and could only talk to "case managers" and "investigators". They were ready to sign me up right away but didn't want to explain anything. So I called Ms. Willis, and am very glad I did. She personally took my call, and spoke with me twice for almost 2 hours total. I actually didn't hire her because she told me that I shouldn't. There was only a very small insurance policy and there was no way for any lawyer to get more. She could have signed me up and taken a percentage from that amount like the other firms would have done. But she was a straight shooter from the beginning and only seemed concerned with getting to the bottom of the best that could be done with limited insurance coverage. She's a great lawyer to call if you want a straight answer and are confused about your options.

When I first called Attorney Willis, I had an offer of 20K on my case. Long story short, when the case was closed, we settled for 325K!! I look for results when I call a professional, and she delivered. Attorney Willis was very detailed when asking questions, giving instructions, explaining options, and, most important to me, FIGHTING when it was needed. The case had some problems and Ms. Willis told us how to deal with those. The lawyer on the other side was very tenacious but Ms. Willis did not ever back down for one second. Several times she recommended that we reject lower offers, which is why ended up with so much more money than we expected. If my family ever needs a personal injury lawyer, which hopefully they won't, there is no doubt who I will be calling.

I'm a fellow lawyer from another state. I cannot more highly recommend Ms. Willis as one of the top Florida personal injury lawyers. She is well known nationally in several lawyer groups, and has won many prestigious awards related to her practice. I've personally reviewed her work product (she used to draft difficult documents in trial, and on appeal, for other personal injury and medical malpractice lawyers). Legal work is not cookie-cutter. We regularly have to craft creative arguments and strategies because all cases are different, and all have challenges. Sometimes those challenges can be the difference between a million dollar settlement and nothing. Ms. Willis' work in making each legal argument shine is truly exceptional in my experience. Her background includes working as a law professor, graduating second in her law school class, and working for some of the biggest firms in the country, on extremely high value cases on the defense side, before switching to plaintiffs work. If I ever needed to refer a serious injury or accident client to a lawyer in Florida, Ms. Willis would be my only choice, no question about it! Additionally, Ms. Willis does not operate a settlement mill law firm. This is a negative phrase, which lawyers know means that the lawyers operate on high volume (high case to lawyer ratio). Generally these are bigger law firms, with high volumes of clients & cases. I would call Ms. Willis if you have a serious accident, injury or death case, and want careful attention given to your case. Ms. Willis has assembled a team that is outstanding, and her consistent results speak for themselves. Overall, very highly recommended!

I am the principal attorney at an Atlanta based civil litigation firm, handling serious personal injury and wrongful death cases. Many of these cases involve complex legal issues. Over the past five years, Ms. Willis has performed research and writing work on several complex matters. One of these cases involved four deaths as a result of a boat sinking in Utah. Ms. Willis was instrumental in helping my firm defeat a Motion to Dismiss filed by the vessel manufacturer in the State of Florida. She also wrote an impressive and successful Appellate Brief in the Florida Court of Appeals on that case. Her brief writing skills are, in my opinion, unparalleled in the realm of civil litigation. She is very skilled at crafting compelling and persuasive arguments, and my firm has prevailed on every motion or appeal she has drafted. I continue to utilize Ms. Willis's services, and would recommend her without qualification for any civil litigation matter. And, while I have only worked with Ms. Willis on civil litigation matters, I am quite sure she would prove successful on other matters as well.

I can’t lie, it felt good having two experienced lawyers representing me. I really saw the true aggressive lawyers they are. Needless to say, I walked away with a handsome settlement of 550K instead of $15k. Tina and her partner are THE BEST!!! If you’re reading this: HIRE THEM NOW!!
Again thank you so much!!!
Ms. Willis gets into the nitty-gritty details to uncover any facts that support you getting more money in your pocket at the end of your case. Things like learning all about your life, how your injuries are affecting your day to day life, so that she can tell your story at mediation or trial.
If you have a lost wages claim, she will dig into the documentation needed to prove that part of your case, too. The devil really is in the details with maximizing these cases -- which you learn when you see her and her team in action. Insurance companies and corporations will not write a large check unless you have really good evidence to prove that you didn't cause the accident. You have to prove all of these things and need lots of facts, records, witnesses, details, etc, etc. Ms. Willis and her team leave NO stone unturned to gather the absolute BEST facts to prove your case. This is the way to walk away knowing you got the best deal.
I am a huge fan of Ms. Willis and highly recommend you give her a call!
Then I received a call from her and she wanted to know more so she took her time trying to understand and listening without rushing me and answering all my questions and concerns, at the end she decided to take my case.
Im really greatful for her advise and for listening, because in times of crisis and when you are looking desperately for answers, it’s really nice when someone advise you to go in the best direction.
Thank you so much Tina!
