Frequently Asked Questions About the Florida Bar

While most doctors are board-certified, most lawyers are not. There are approximately 77,000 lawyers currently practicing in the state of Florida, and of that huge number, only 7% of Florida’s attorneys are board-certified. Only 1% of board-certified attorneys are women.
Before hiring a lawyer, you should look that lawyer up on the Florida Bar website, located at https://www.floridabar.org/directories/find-mbr/, and make sure you hire a lawyer who is board-certified. The website will also let you know if that lawyer has any history of being disciplined by the Florida Bar in the last 10 years. Disciplinary history with the Florida Bar is an important thing to consider before trusting any lawyer with your injury case.

Why Does Maryann Furman RN, ESQ. Provide Her Cell Phone Number To Every Client?

The number 1 thing most clients complain about when they have a personal injury case is that they can’t get a hold of their lawyer.
Some victims of personal injuries who have hired big advertising law firms have never even met with their lawyer and have only ever spoken to paralegals, case managers or investigators.
Some lawyers advertise that they give clients their cell phone, but in reality it’s a phone taken home by a paralegal or case manager on nights and weekends.
Since opening The Nurse Lawyer, P.A. in 2012, Maryann has given each and every client her one and only personal cell phone number, 727-457-1903, and has posted it on her website.
It is important to Maryann that her clients know that she is available to them 24/7 and when her clients have a question, they can easily access their lawyer directly without having to go through any support staff.
It is the excellent client communication and the ease of being able to reach her, that makes Maryann so highly recommended by clients to their family and friends when they need a lawyer.
