Schackow & Mercadante, P.A.

It took me a while to get around to writing this review, but now that my settlement is done I have nothing but positive things to say about this firm. I found them simply by word of mouth. I could have gone with some of the big name attorneys that you always see commercials and billboards for in Florida, but I wanted someone local that I felt I could trust. From the beginning, I felt their compassion, professionalism, and willingness to take the best possible care of me and my case. I worked with Brian Schackow and his legal assistant Sarena Payne who helped guide me every step of the way and answer all of my questions! I put all of my trust and faith into them fighting for me to get the best possible outcome for my case and they delivered! I will always be grateful for their dedication and hard work to help me in a difficult time of my life! Their hard work won a big case for me that gave me the financial security I felt was deserved now and for my future. I will always recommend them to anyone and everyone who needs a personal injury attorney in the Gainesville area. - Justin

Wonderful helpful staff. Very caring and knowledgeable. Highly recommend working with them if you have a need

Exceptional experience with this firm. Our family member hired them to help navigate a liability claim with an auto insurance company and they got it settled for the full amount within months, not years. They also negotiated down the extensive medical bills on their client's behalf. Highly recommend!

drop me instead of fighting for me. I think they can do better then that. small can be bigger if the fight in side is big so is the out come. But really friendly and big hearts. Thank you, Marie and Teresa.I leave you these words of encouragement.

For my very first experience with a law firm, I have to say Schackow & Mercadante has been very pleasant. I would highly recommend them. Amber is the best Legal Assistant. She treated me like a family member from the start to the completion. Thank you all for kindness.

I was in a bad accident that threatened to end my career in the Fire Service. I knew I had a calm and needed someone to handle it while I focused on my recovery. I talked to a few attorneys that were friends of family members. As soon as I told them what happened they wanted me to sign a retainer for 40-50% before they would speak a single word more to me. Brian was actually recommended by insurance agent that I also call a friend. He was the only one that took the time to discuss my case with me and gave me advice before asking for a retainer. His costs are reasonable. I’m glad I hired him.

I am so thankful for this law firm. I had a situation and Brian jumped into action. It was a long journey but worth it. After everything that could possibly be done to help me with my injury the gloves came off. Brian along with his assistant Amber got the ball rolling and we had an agreement on the settlement with the case closed. Needless to say it was a long 4 year process but they were there every step of the way. Brian and Amber are really down to earth kinda people. I highly recommend this law firm to the highest.

I am so thankful to Teresa at Schackow and Mercadante. they took my case and won the limits of the insurance company of the lady who rear ended me in Hardees parking lot I did not have to go to court the people were very helpful in every way and direct deposited my money with no problems. I have been through the accident proceedings once before with another law firm and different accident, I wish I had used this firm instead. I would recommend any one who has had an accident that was not your fault use Schackow and Mercadante. I did not have a vehicle to go any where so they sent my paper work to my email and the next day my money was in my bank. Teresa was there to help in every way and always very pleasant to speak with. Thank you to all who helped me win and Happy Holidays to all
