Brian Dunigan

Senior Attorney

We can resolve some cases fairly quickly. Other cases may take a long time if we have to go through litigation, a full jury trial, and possibly even an appeal process. As the saying goes, ‘it is more important to do it right than do it fast.’ Whether your case settles quickly or takes a longer time, we pride ourselves on making sure our clients get justice and fair results.

HEAR IT STRAIGHT FROM OUR CLIENTS

I was driving down I-40 when I got hit by another car. I called Michael Ponce because I wanted an attorney right here in Nashville. As soon as I called, I knew I made the right decision, and Ponce Law got me the money I needed to get back on my feet. I highly recommend Ponce Law!

After my car accident, I wasn’t sure if I needed an attorney. I called Ponce Law for a free consultation. I’m so glad I made the call. I wanted a local attorney, and from the first call, to when my case was settled, I felt heard, valued, and taken care of.

I was on I-40 coming into Nashville and a car ran into the back of me. The accident was serious, and I needed surgery. I did ask an attorney friend of mine whom I should call, and he said call Ponce Law. The folks at Ponce Law were outstanding and got us a large settlement.
