Shiner Law Group

Personal injury law in Florida is, by any measure, a competitive field. The state's volume of traffic accidents, its density of commercial trucks, and its hospitality-heavy economy produce a constant and consequential caseload that has attracted firms of every size and temperament. What distinguishes Shiner Law Group — founded by David I. Shiner and now one of the most recognized personal injury practices in South Florida — is not simply the scale of its recoveries, though $100 million in client compensation is not a small number. It is the consistency of a firm that has built its reputation on aggressive representation and a straightforward promise: you pay nothing unless we win.

David Shiner's background as a trial lawyer shapes the firm's orientation in ways that matter. Insurance companies understand, better than most clients do, the difference between a firm that settles quickly and one that is genuinely prepared to take a case to verdict. Shiner Law Group has spent more than two decades establishing itself in the latter category — a posture reflected in settlements that include $2.75 million for a spinal injury victim struck by a semi-truck, $1.9 million for a motorcyclist with a traumatic brain injury, and $1.5 million for a wrongful death family whose loved one was struck by a delivery vehicle. These are not the results of a firm that treats negotiation as a formality. They are the results of attorneys who understand leverage.

The firm's seven-office footprint across Florida — Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, Fort Pierce, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Belle Glade, and Wellington — gives it genuine geographic reach across the state's most accident-intensive corridors. Attorneys are available around the clock, consultations are free, and the firm will come to clients who cannot travel. That accessibility is not incidental to the practice; it is the practice, applied to an injury population that is, by definition, already dealing with more than enough.

Recognized by the National Trial Lawyers Top 100, honored among the 10 Best for Attorney Satisfaction, and rated by Lawyers of Distinction, Shiner Law Group has accumulated external validation that mirrors what its client reviews — more than 1,000 of them — have said consistently: that when the firm takes a case, the client is treated like a person, not a file number. In a field where that distinction is rarer than it should be, it remains the most important one.
