Representative Workflow

What Recognized Counsel Does Differently

The Problem

An injured client previously represented by a volume firm was offered a quick settlement that did not reflect the full medical course. The earlier firm had not investigated UM coverage on a household policy.

Our Approach

The firm reviewed the case, identified the unexplored UM layer, documented the full medical course through MMI, and re-presented the case with a complete file. Witness work and expert support were added.

The Outcome

The case was re-positioned with documented coverage layers and a full damages picture. Recovery substantially exceeded the original offer.

Top-Rated Attorney Questions

What is Super Lawyers Rising Star? +
Super Lawyers Rising Star is a peer-review and research-based recognition for attorneys under 40 or in practice fewer than 10 years. Less than 2.5 percent of eligible attorneys receive the recognition. Donny Marin received it eight times: 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017.
What courts is the attorney admitted to? +
All Florida state courts, the U.S. District Courts for the Southern, Middle, and Northern Districts of Florida, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. The admission profile covers state, federal trial, and federal appellate practice across Florida.
Does top-rated mean the firm only takes large cases? +
No. The firm accepts cases across the full range of personal injury and wrongful-death matters. Case selection is based on the merits and the firm's ability to help, not on case size alone.
How does direct attorney access work in practice? +
Clients consistently report reaching the attorney by phone rather than a call screener. The firm's reviews on Google describe this in clients' own words. Direct access matters because important case decisions happen quickly.
What if I want to verify the credentials? +
Florida Bar membership and court admissions are public records, accessible through the Florida Bar website and the relevant court's attorney admissions database. Super Lawyers recognition is published in their annual research publication.
Is the firm a large practice? +
The Marin Law Offices is a focused practice with personal handling. The structure allows direct attorney engagement and avoids the layered-handoff pattern common at larger firms.
Does the firm handle cases outside South Florida? +
Most matters arise in Miami-Dade and Broward. The firm also handles federal-court matters and maritime claims across the Florida federal districts and the Eleventh Circuit.
How quickly can I speak with the attorney? +
Often the same day. Call (305) 482-9701 or submit the contact form. We aim to respond within one business day at the latest. Same-day responses are common when the firm is between case demands. After the initial conversation, follow-up communication is direct, and clients are not routed through an intake team or call center for case updates.
