Michael Marhefka

I wanted to share my experience with the law firm of Mager Parúas.  My story begins back in 2020 when I was presented with an opportunity that, at the time, seemed like a viable extra stream of income for myself and my family.  I took the necessary financial steps to get my new business off the ground.  I soon found myself in the middle of what felt like a big scam.  Like the saying goes, “if something sounds too good to be true it usually is.”

Fast forward to 2022, when I thought all was lost and I would never see my financial investment returned, the superhero team of Mager Parúas came in and saved the day! A friend of mine knew what I was going through with this business investment and how heavily it was weighing on myself and my family, both mentally and financially.  He said to me, “I know of this great law firm with a great team of attorneys that I know can help you.” The sign on their office building states they are ADVOCATES FOR JUSTICE, and in the end that is exactly the outcome that I received. JUSTICE.

When I first called the firm, I was not even sure if I had a case or if they would even entertain a situation like mine.  I was pleasantly surprised when I was put right on the phone with Scott Mager, who is the founding partner of the firm.  He carefully listened to my situation, asking all the pertinent questions, and after about 5 minutes on the phone he said, “I think we can definitely help you out.” When I heard those words, a calmness came over me and a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders.  This was the first moment of clarity and ease I had in over 2 years since first dealing with this situation.  Scott asked me to come into the office for a meeting to discuss my case in more detail.  When I arrived for that meeting, I did not know what to expect as this was all new to me.  I was welcomed in such a way that I knew I was in the right place with the right team that was going to help me.

I sat with Scott for over an hour discussing my entire situation. He then brought in attorney Doug Lazzaro who would be handling my case.  Just as Scott did, Doug put my mind at ease, and after listening to the details of my case was immediately ready to get to work and seek justice on my behalf.

I never had to deal with anything like this before, so these were uncharted waters for me.  Doug was there every step of the way.  He always had time for my phone calls, answered every question that I had (which there were many), and always kept me informed of the progress and steps involved in my case.  There was never a time in this entire 3-year process that I felt left out of any information or updates.  Doug always spoke to me in a way in which I would understand the legal jargon and made sure that I was kept abreast of all proceedings, filings, and any updates in my case.  This was not an easy process for me, but Doug made it as easy as he could for me and always reassured me that things were going to be alright in the end.  He worked tirelessly for 3 years and, in the end, got me a very favorable judgement in my case.

I would be remiss if I also didn’t mention Florida Registered Paralegal Patty Creech, who was right there alongside Doug fighting for justice in my case.  She too kept me in the loop with the progress of my case and made sure to always put my mind at ease.  She always took my calls and answered my questions.  One thing that she would always tell me is “you are family, and we always fight for our family.” That is exactly what they did.

The law firm of Mager Parúas are true superheroes in my eyes and I am sure in the eyes of all of the clients they tirelessly represent fighting for justice, no matter how big or small the case may be.

Scott, Doug, Patty, and the entire team of Mager Parúas – I can’t thank you enough for everything you have done for me, how you made me feel, and the justice you got for me in the end.  You all live up to your motto and are true ADVOCATES FOR JUSTICE!!!

Very diligent and thorough work of the whole team from beginning to closing the case. Special thanks to Michael and Cindy being very kind, supportive, and professionally well-handled with getting justice for my injury case. You all are amazing and heroes!!

I just wanted to take a moment to send my appreciation to the team and importantly J.B. Harris. Almost a year into my case and we have had little to no movement due to a stalling opposition trying to drain all resources and provide some impossible tasks. J.B. has been nothing short of a light at the end of the tunnel, which has been very hard for me to see these past few months. After seeing J.B. in action today, I now see why I hired your firm and felt a slight relief for the first time in a long time. We defeated their Motion to Dismiss, which is a large victory in terms of going forward. I believe and I believe J.B. does as well, that the wheels of justice, although slow, will prevail. I hired a “pitbull” and I’m happy to finally see my side of the story shared so well from J.B. and company today.

I know I’m far from your largest client and most likely not at the top of the list but truthfully today seeing J.B. in action truly made me feel heard for the first time in a long time regarding this issue. I look forward to defeating these guys once and for all and referring you guys out to anyone else I know looking for a top-notch team. Thank you again J.B. Harris and team for representing my company and family throughout some of the most difficult times we have faced.

Angela Lam

I had an excellent experience working with the attorneys and staff at Mager Parúas PLLC after my car accident. From the start, they provided clear guidance, professional support, and dedicated legal representation that made a stressful situation much easier to navigate. My attorney, J.B. Harris, and firm partner Brian Parúas, are extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain every step of the process. J.B. and the team worked hard and their expertise and strategic approach played a crucial role in the success and positive outcome on my case.

We highly recommend Mager Parúas, PLLC to any business in need of top-tier legal representation.

Irving Stokes

I highly recommend it to anyone who may need a lawyer for whatever reason, this is the place to go. Ms. Solar and Mr. Lijoi were very helpful, and they truly fought for me and got my case settled. You can fully depend on them to get you through your case step by step and not have to worry about a thing. They will take care of it all just for you.

Kieran Schwarz

Brian and the team, especially Cindy, who worked on our case for my daughter were wonderful. They worked for us and did all the due diligence that was needed for the case. They felt like family and kept our mind at ease during this process. They truly went above and beyond to get the best settlement possible for us.

Brian W.

I was referred to Mager Parúas by a friend and they have been great. I’ve worked directly with both Michael and Cindy resolving my car accident case. They’ve both been very helpful but also empathetic. Brian Parúas is also an amazing person, taking the time to fully explain the process and what’s to be expected as well as being genuinely concerned about how I was doing. I highly recommend this firm.”

Salvatore Latorre

Mager Parúas Law Firm gave my wife and I outstanding and rewarding legal service. Cindy, who assisted us throughout the lawsuit was professional and thorough throughout this lawsuit with outstanding success. My wife and I highly recommend Mager Parúas Law Firm to settle a claim. Thank you again for your hard work and outstanding success.

Amy Thompson

Greetings Brian and team – I’m writing to thank you and your entire law firm for all your hard work throughout my accident case. Throughout my experience and time, I worked with Cindy and Michael. They both were awesome with reaching out (via phone, texts, an/or email). I feel this law firm was kind, patient, and supportive. My location made it difficult for me to visit them, so the team was sure to email and call me every time there was a new development. I cannot thank you enough for the amazing treatment you gave me. I highly recommend you all using Brian and team.

Feel Great Meditate

I had a flood in my rental apartment and Mager Parúas jumped right on board to SAVE THE DAY!! They felt my stress and urgency as the landlord was holding me hostage, forcing me to stay in my rental, meanwhile they were about to open walls ceilings and floors! Mager Parúas got another counsel on phone and immediately dealt with the landlord, made an agreement to resolve and got my lease broken legally and got my deposit back. Great law firm!!!

Shantell Yachetta

This firm did an amazing job! The settlement they got me was life changing! I started my case with another attorney and should have gone with Scott Mager and Brian Parúas from the beginning! The case manager got all the best doctors to rush me in for immediate appointments since my injuries were so severe, and I was able to get the treatment I needed. The legal assistants, Cindy and Christine, were always available to speak to me and help me with whatever questions I needed answered. I recommend this boutique law firm to anyone who wants to be treated like family.

Kate Jolly

I was very fortunate to have such amazing lawyers during my process. Always available to answer my questions, prepared me for my deposition, executed my case honestly, as well as without me getting impatient. Thank you again.

I have received your Answer Brief and in my humble opinion, it is a most impressive piece of work, well researched, and cogently argued. While I disagree with your position (and hope to persuade the court accordingly), I cannot help but admire the excellence of your written presentation. When I catch my breath, it will be my goal to try to respond with something approaching your high standards, happily at issue with practitioners of your caliber.

Satisfied Client

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you on behalf of me and my family for all the work you have completed to date. Your remarkable work product and excellent communication would impress any judge or jury, and your client service gave us the confidence we needed to successfully see justice through. Your professionalism and ethics are rare and a breath of fresh air to me and my family. It is unusual to find someone in your field that will take on a case with passion and enthusiasm as you do.

Paul Plump

As a member of the Board of Directors, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent representation, which was recently settled for seven figures. Without doubt this complicated matter was settled mainly due to your knowledge, experience and professionalism. I did not believe that you would be able to sort through the massive paperwork that had been generated over a five-year period and resolve the matter to our satisfaction, especially having had to step in when our prior attorney abandoned us.

Satisfied Client

I wish to take this opportunity to offer my deepest gratitude for the way you handled our case. From day one you immediately responded to our problems with great compassion and thoughtfulness. In what was a remarkable act of kindness, you went way above and beyond the call of duty, agreeing to meet with my wife and I the very next day (Saturday). Your presentation of materials that we utilized was nothing short of genius. You were able to assimilate years of information and data, and you dedicated the time and prepared both of us in a way that secured our victory. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Richael & Victoria

We don’t know how to say thank you for your generosity. You have revived our faith in honesty, goodness and friendship. Something no lawsuit could ever replace. We shall forever be in your debt.

Satisfied Client

We were pleased with the professionalism shown by you and your talented staff throughout the entire litigation process. The experience and knowledge that your firm exhibited were the main reason for the success that we had in resolving this claim. We also felt that our families’ interests were always the focus of your firm through the litigation process.

CEO, Universal Health Management

Once again let me thank you for the unbelievable job that was accomplished this past week with my court case. For me to walk away with no liability and for you to have had only a week or two preparation time is a testament to your ability. The judge and jury loved you and so did we. Please do not hesitate to have me serve as a reference for potential future clients.

Senior Vice President, Major Company

I want to take a moment to thank you for the stellar work you’ve done. If you are going to trial, you do not want just competent counsel; you want the best! Scott, from day one, I was impressed with the person and energy you exhibited in defending this matter. What I appreciated the most was that you took the time to get to know our organization, our culture and most importantly, our people.

General Counsel Major Corporation
