In addition to our phenomenal team of attorneys, we also have a support staff of more than 70 employees, including four registered nursing consultants, a former Deputy Chief of Police and four paralegals formerly employed as insurance adjusters. Our staff is equipped with a comprehensive research library and the latest technology to investigate cases, preserve evidence, research similar cases and stay up-to-date on the latest court decisions and changes to the law. We also have our own evidence and inspection facility to preserve important evidence.

About Our Clients

We’ve been helping our clients with injury, accident, medical malpractice and product liability cases from our West Palm Beach location for more than 35 years, but the firm’s history dates back even further. Founding partners Lake Lytal, Jr. and Joe Reiter have been practicing together in Florida since 1968. Many of our attorneys are native Floridians and we are proud of our strong ties to the community, as well as our national reputation as a top personal injury law firm.

Because we have established a strong reputation and work diligently to please each and every client, we receive most of our new clients through referrals from past clients and other attorneys. We accept referrals throughout Florida and the United States.
