Why we started neal & solevilla personal injury lawyers

1. Board Certified Civil Trial Attorney on Your Side

Katherine Neal is one of fewer than 8% of Florida lawyers who hold Board Certification in Civil Trial Law. That credential is earned, not bought — it requires years of trial experience, peer review, and a rigorous exam. When insurance adjusters see our name on a claim, they know a trial-ready lawyer is behind it.

2. A Track Record of Seven- and Six-Figure Results

From a $1M settlement in a catastrophic auto case to $625K for a rideshare collision victim, our Clearwater personal injury lawyers have recovered millions for Pinellas County families. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes, but they do show how we prepare every case.

3. Direct Access to Your Attorney

No case managers. No junior associates. When you hire Neal & Solevilla, you get Katherine Neal and Melissa Solevilla's cell phone numbers. You call, a lawyer answers.

4. A Clearwater Firm That Knows Pinellas County Courts

We practice every week in the Pinellas County Courthouse. We know the judges, the clerks, the opposing defense counsel, and the local jury pool. That local knowledge shapes how we negotiate and how we try cases.

5. No Fee Unless We Win

Every personal injury case we take is on a contingency fee. You pay nothing up front, nothing out of pocket, and nothing at all unless we recover money for you.

6. Compassionate Support Through Your Recovery

Injury claims are not just paperwork — they are lost wages, surgeries, missed family time. We help clients find trusted Clearwater doctors, coordinate with insurers, and keep them updated weekly so they can focus on getting better.

Clearwater Personal Injury Lawyer FAQs

How much does a personal injury lawyer cost in Clearwater, FL?

Neal & Solevilla handles every Clearwater personal injury case on a contingency fee, which means you pay nothing up front and nothing at all unless we recover money for you. Our standard contingency fee is 33 1/3% if the case settles before a lawsuit is filed and 40% if the case goes into litigation, consistent with Florida Bar rules.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Florida?

Under Florida Statute Section 95.11, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the date of the accident. Wrongful death claims also carry a two-year deadline. Waiting too long can permanently bar your claim, so speak with a Clearwater personal injury lawyer as soon as possible.

What is my Clearwater personal injury case worth?

Case value depends on medical bills, lost wages, future care, pain and suffering, and the at-fault party's available insurance. A Board Certified trial lawyer will evaluate every damages category, including damages a quick-settlement offer usually ignores. Neal & Solevilla offers a free case review so you know the real range before you accept any offer.

Do I have to go to court for a personal injury claim?

Most Clearwater personal injury cases settle without a trial, but insurance carriers pay more when they know your lawyer is ready and willing to try the case. That is why we prepare every file as if it is going to a Pinellas County jury from day one.

Who pays my medical bills after a Clearwater accident?

Florida is a no-fault state, so your own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage pays the first $10,000 of medical bills regardless of who caused the crash. If injuries are serious, a personal injury claim against the at-fault party can recover additional medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

What should I do right after an injury in Clearwater?

Get medical care first - always. Then document the scene, collect witness contact information, notify your own insurer, and avoid giving a recorded statement to the other driver's insurance company until you speak with a lawyer. Call Neal & Solevilla for a free, no-obligation case review 24/7.

How is Neal & Solevilla different from other Clearwater injury firms?

Two things. First, Katherine Neal is Board Certified in Civil Trial Law - a credential held by fewer than 8% of Florida attorneys. Second, we are a boutique firm, so you work directly with your lawyer from day one, not a case manager. Those two factors consistently change how quickly and how favorably our cases resolve.
