I found everyone at Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers to be very very professional, helpful, and understanding. Calls were always answered and the attorney himself was always available for any questions that I had. They followed up with me after my surgery and took care of everything involved in the billing process with my insurance provider and the surgery center.

C.W.

Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers were referred to me by a close friend. Mark Roman came to see me in the hospital. He assured me that my only job was to heal and that they would take care of everything else. I can’t tell you how much that meant to me. It was a very painful and scary experience, but Mr. Roman, Mr. Gaynor and every single person on their staff was amazing. I will forever be grateful to this team of people for their compassion and dedication.

April L

I would like to thank you and your staff for handling my recent case in such a professional manner. Coming away from our first meeting, I knew that all would be well and that I was in good hands. You and your team did not disappoint. In fact, you greatly exceeded my expectations, from negotiating with insurance companies and medical providers to coordinating payment of medical bills, the attention to detail was impressive. I would especially like to thank Cate for her effort in managing the day to day details of the case. If the need ever arises again you will be my only choice for representation.

Robert M.

I am writing this letter to formally thank you for the outstanding legal representation provided to me. Your professionalism and concern for my case will not be forgotten. The treatment that I had experienced from my former attorney left me extremely frustrated. You and your wonderful staff have restored my faith in the legal profession. My only regret is that I didn’t utilize your services initially. You were honest and forthright and I truly appreciate that. I would not hesitate to recommend you to my friends and loved ones. Mr. Roman, you are a credit to your profession.

Mark M.

For my wife, this was a God-send, since she had never been through a personal injury claim and was intimidated by the process. Furthermore, the case was aggressively pursued and resolved in far less time than anticipated, and with even greater success than either of us had imagined. We were so very confident in the firm’s ability and were never disappointed. Kudos to all involved.

Joseph S.

Don’t change; I believe your faith as well as the fact that you do care about your clients is what sets you apart the most. I also believe that since you have experienced first-hand what it is like to be in a bad accident and have insurance companies jerk you around; you know what it is like to be in your client’s shoes and can relate with them about what they are feeling. You and your firm have definitely made my first legal battle as comfortable as one can make it. Thank you for believing in me and my case and always providing sound guidance. While I hope that I never have the need for a lawyer again; if the circumstances should require one, I will definitely turn to you.

Ryan H.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for everything you’ve done for me. Your expertise, skill, dedication and hard work during this horrific experience in my life, literally saved me. I can attest that your motto “We Really Care” and “Compassionate Justice” are not just mere words, but they are truly the mission by which you and your office live by.

Kally F.

To me, Mark represents the highest capability of attorney I have ever come to know. Because of my prior injuries, I did not think Mark would be able to get a favorable ruling for me and my family. Eventually, with more than two years of sincere and dedicated effort, the Roman team prevailed for me and received an eventually acceptable outcome after many months of struggle. My wife and I were completely and pleasantly surprised by Mark’s outcome. We are 100% committed to Attorney Roman and his legal team for any of our future needs.

W. S.

When I hired Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers I had no idea that I would be treated like family. Prompt, aggressive, compassionate representation is exactly what I received.

The C Family

As a client I was very happy with the outcome of my case! Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers did a phenomenal and professional job at handling my case. They really do take their job serious and they really care about their clients! Thank you guys so much!!”

Karen W.

At trial, when the law team was planning their strategy, I was not excluded. In fact, my opinion counted. I felt as though I belonged to the “Team”. I cannot stress enough how professional, comfortable, and relaxed I was at trial. Mark and Morgan make remarkable partners. They complement each other with their own special way of making things go their way and, in turn, as a client, this results in things going your way. It is with great confidence that I recommend Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers.

James F.

At a very low point in my life, Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers was very professional, protective, and patient with me. I appreciate and needed that. You have a great team – I was very satisfied. Thank you!

Paula S.

I would like to thank each and every one of the Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers. I had experience with other law firms, but yours is different. We really feel that you humanly care.”

Kheir B.

Everyone at your firm has been and is very helpful and has shown that they really care and are not like other lawyers who are only in it for the money. Your firm cares about taking care of their people. I would refer them and use them again if needed. Thank you to everyone.

Sultana M.

Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers worked with me after my auto accident and I can’t say enough about their professionalism and caring attitudes. At Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers, it is not just about winning your case, it is also about making sure that you are taken care of physically and emotionally. The entire team at their office is a pleasure to work with. I have, and will continue to, refer people to them if they are in need of personal injury lawyers.

Co Ah

As each of us walk our path of life, many people always remain in our thoughts and hearts with gratitude and you are one of those. We truly want to thank you for not only representing us but all of your help, guidance and friendship. We all agree, it was far from a pleasant time, but your encouragement, knowledge, and being consistent made it easier. Please accept our sincere thanks and deep appreciation.

Harry & Ellie H.

Thank you so very much for your help and support in getting through the maze of bills and insurance after my car accident. It was such a relief to know you were taking care of things especially when my son became ill. I felt very comfortable with your expertise. This was a difficult situation Mark and Cate made it easier. I will always remember your care and concern

Mary C.

I really felt taken care of by your team. Everyone was very professional. Keep up the good customer service

How Do I Know If I Have A Personal Injury Case?
Not all injuries and accidents result in a personal injury case. Likewise, not all will justify the time and expense to pursue an injury claim

You can gage whether you have an injury case by asking the following questions:
- Were you seriously injured?
- Was someone else responsible?
- Do you have financial expenses after the accident, such as medical expenses or lost wages?
- Do you have non-economic losses like pain and suffering or emotional distress?
If you answered yes to these questions, you likely have a personal injury claim. The best way to make sure you have a case is to consult an experienced attorney. Roman Austin Personal Injury Lawyers would be proud to examine your case and explain your rights and options. Contact us today to schedule a free consultation.
How Much Does A Personal Injury Lawyer Cost In Florida?

Most Florida personal injury lawyers work on contingency. That means they charge nothing up front. They will only charge you for the representation if they recover compensation for you through a settlement or verdict. If your lawyer fails to recover compensation for you, you don’t owe them any money.

Most personal injury lawyers in Tampa also offer free consultations to prospective clients. Therefore, the financial risks in hiring an injury lawyer are minimal.
How Much Money Can I Get For My Personal Injury Case?
It depends. The value of your personal injury case depends on many different factors. Those factors are unique to you, and no other previous case provides a perfect example of what you can get.

The money you can get for your injury claim will depend on the following:
- The extent of your medical bills
- The amount of your lost wages
- Whether you’ve endured pain and suffering
- Available insurance coverages
- Whether you shared fault for the accident
- The strength of your evidence
The quickest way to get an idea of the value of your claim is to consult a Tampa personal injury lawyer. Your lawyer can record and calculate all your damages, bringing in financial experts when necessary. Roman Austin would be happy to help you figure out your case’s worth.
What Are The Elements Of Negligence In A Personal Injury Claim?
Most personal injury claims revolve around negligence. Negligence means that a person failed to act reasonably and injured another person.

In order to have a successful negligence claim, you must prove four elements:
- Duty – You must show that the defendant owed you a duty of care. Duties typically arise from the law or from a special relationship between the parties.
- Breach of Duty – You must prove that the defendant breached their duty. You will do this by showing they failed to act like a reasonable person in the circumstances leading up to your accident or injury.
- Causation – You will have to establish that the defendant’s breach caused your accident. You must prove that your injuries wouldn’t have happened had it not been for the defendant’s conduct. You will also have to show your injuries were foreseeable.
- Damages – You must show you suffered damages related to your injury.
You must prove each element to win your case. If you fail to prove just one, you won’t be able to obtain any compensation. This highlights the importance of having an experienced attorney on your side.
