Your Story Matters. Hear From Our Clients

“After being in a car accident in September of 2021 I had no idea of the issues I would face with the other motorist insurance company. After being shocked that the other insurance company would not entertain a pain and suffering settlement I reached out for help. My neighbor, a retired police detective, recommended Wettermark Keith. I reached out and we got the ball rolling. Roper Elrod was assigned to my case and I was very pleased with his help and support. He always kept me updated on the progress and changes of my case as well as providing me with the best advice. I am very pleased with how everything was handled by Roper and the Wettermark Keith team!! Thank you for representing me in the most professional manner!!”

“Highly recommend anyone who’s filing a disability claim in any state in the US contact Wettermark-Keith attorneys to help ease the stress of figuring it all out yourself. My attorney, Brian Smith from the Wettermark-Keith firm was efficient, friendly, positive and professional. All of the paralegals who helped me along the way were all a wonderful team and without them I don’t believe I could’ve navigated the minutiae of the social security filing process. We took it all the way to the administrative law Judge and there Brian Smith worked his magic and got me approved for disability benefits with back pay as my case was 3 years old. It’s never too late to call Wettermark-Keith for help and answers they are THE experts to call. Thank you attorney Brian Smith and thank you Wettermark-Keith!!”

“Wettermark Keith Birmingham did an amazing job on my case. John Stephens went out of his way to come to Macon, Georgia and contact every business on the road I was traveling during the accident. His hard work resulted in footage of the wreck that changed the outcome of the case. I appreciate everything this group of lawyers did for me and helped me receive the money and care I needed from my accident. If you’re ever in an accident, I highly recommend these personal injury lawyers.”

“Wettermark Keith was extremely professional and helpful. This personal injury law firm helped my husband over 10 years ago when he fell and broke his foot on vacation. I called them first because I liked their TV commercials. They are very nice people and I would call them again if I needed a lawyer.”
