Pay Nothing Unless We Win

By Howard Merricks, Partner at Merricks Law Group – Member, The Florida Bar – Last updated September 24, 2026

Aggressive for you. Personal with you.

A serious injury changes everything at once. One moment you are going about your day in Lutz; the next you are hurt, the medical bills are stacking up, and an insurance company is already deciding how little your claim is worth. You do not have to carry that alone. Merricks Law Group fights for injured people across Lutz and the Tampa Bay area, aggressive with the insurers and personal with you every step of the way.

We see you as more than a case number

Insurance companies handle claims by the thousands. To them you are a file to close cheaply. To us you are a person whose life was disrupted by someone else’s carelessness, and who deserves to be made whole. Every case gets real attention from experienced attorneys, not a call-center runaround. We are big enough to take on the largest insurers and small enough to genuinely care how your recovery is going.

Injury cases we handle for Lutz

Busy Lutz corridors like Dale Mabry Highway and US-41 see frequent collisions, and if someone else’s negligence caused your injury, we can help. Our practice covers the full range of personal injury claims:

  • Vehicle accidents: car, truck, motorcycle, pedestrian, rideshare, and more

  • Slip, trip and fall on unsafe property

  • Medical malpractice, product liability, dog bites, work injuries, and wrongful death

If you are not sure whether you have a case, that is exactly what a free consultation is for.

Why injured people here choose Merricks Law Group

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Lutz personal injury lawyer cost? Nothing up front. We work on contingency, so there are no fees or costs unless we win. Your consultation is free.

How do I know if I have a case? If you were injured and someone else may be at fault, it is worth finding out. A free consultation is the easiest way to get a clear, honest answer.

How long do I have to file a claim in Florida? Florida has a strict deadline that changed in 2023. Because the exact limit depends on your situation, contact an attorney promptly so you do not lose your right to file.
