Morgan and Morgan took my case in 2018. After MM made an irreversible mistake on my injury case, they wanted to settle in May 2021. It is now May 2023. I have not received a penny. I was relentlessly harassed and now, am being completely ignored. I sent direct email to both John and Dan Morgan stating I want a transparent communication without harassment and that I desperately needed the settlement money for the treatments for my injuries to help recover so I can return to work asap. Dan Morgan cold-heartedly emailed me to get an attorney and to stop communicating with anyone at MM even when I repeatedly told them I do not wish to get an attorney to resolve the settlement.
MM gave me the option to settle directly or get an attorney for the settlement. I chose direct settlement. But because I was bombarded with blatant deceitful lies by MM to manipulate the settlement outcome, I asked for transparent communication to reach a fair settlement as well as to prevent them from denying the lies. They have already done so to the response to the complaint I filed with Florida State Bar. But they will do ANYTHING to avoid this and I was asked to get an attorney and now being completely ignored by the company.
It is ironic that one of the largest injury attorney company Morgan and Morgan is now injuring its own client in the most brutal way. The emotional distress they caused was so overwhelming it nearly destroyed me. But what hurts me the most is the fact I am unable to care for my aging mother. I had insurance to protect my family and myself for a reason.
The basic summary of what I experienced about Morgan and Morgan is this: If they mess up your case and need to settle, they have no intention of being fair during the settlement process.
They have a proven strategy in place - 1. force the client to get an attorney so they can fight the settlement in court. Or, 2. send the case over to mediation. In both cases, the burden of proof will be suddenly placed on the client - a job Morgan and Morgan was tasked to do. Either way, they will hide behind the attorneys or the mediator and conveniently side 100% with the insurance company and make the injured clients fight for the settlement money.
I initially had so much respect for the company and for John Morgan. His narrative sounded genuine and heroic. I respected his vision and what he stood for. But I was shocked to find this was all a grand façade. What they promise, they would never deliver. It was so shocking to me that they will practice such a blatant fraud so shamelessly.
I feel bad for the employees for Morgan and Morgan for being forced to become the accomplice to the company's unethical practices.
I am getting the exact opposite of what they promise to their clients. Please look at some of the things they promise on their website and what I got instead:
1. Their Promise: You should never settle for less than you deserve. The price for pain is infinite, and that's why we will fight for full and fair compensation for you.
What I got: They wish to give nothing for my pain and suffering - complete opposite of infinite. They also made it clear they won't be responsible for the enormous amount of pain and suffering they caused me themselves through their relentless harassment.
2. Their Promise: AN ARMY OF ATTORNEYS ON YOUR SIDE.
What I got: They use their army of attorneys against me, the injured helpless client who desperately needs help.
3. Their Promise: You shouldn't have to fight a bully by yourself. Not only are we willing to fight for you, but we have the resources to take on the biggest bullies in America
What I got: I, the injured client they are supposed to help, ended up being forced to fight the biggest bully - Morgan and Morgan
4. Their promise: FAMILY PROTECTING FAMILIES. Morgan & Morgan began after John Morgan hired the wrong lawyer for his injured brother Tim. Ever since then, we have fought to preserve our clients' dignity. Because, to us, you are Tim. And you are family for life
What I got: They don't care about my dignity or my injuries. They have no issue throwing my family and me onto the streets facing starvation. Once there is no profit, their 'family member' suddenly become their trash. They are now using the excuse that I am no longer their client. There is no limit to their shamelessness.
