Karen Salter, Carmen Ferguson - Salter Ferguson
Mother-daughter duo Karen Salter and Carmen Ferguson have worked together in personal injury law for seven years. Ferguson said that connection makes their firm, Salter Ferguson, stronger.
“It’s great especially in this industry that there’s a trust factor there,” Ferguson said. “I know that my mom has my back.”
Salter Ferguson handles many catastrophic injury cases, such as vehicular accidents, as well as mass torts, such as drug recalls and defective products. Unlike some law firms, Ferguson said she and her mother work with every client themselves, instead of relying on case managers. “You definitely get the personal touch when you deal with us,” Ferguson said. “We actually get invested in our clients and their cases.”
There are a lot of advertisements for personal injury firms, but Salter said people tend to get better results when they take time to ask friends for recommendations and do research to find an attorney who is a good fit.
“Don’t just have a knee-jerk reaction to a television commercial. A lot of that is theatrics and [people] need to ask around. Most of our clients come to us by personal recommendation,” Salter said. “Spend a little time looking for a right attorney for you.”
Salter Ferguson handles cases on a contingency basis, which means there are no fees until the client gets compensation, and the firm offers on and off-site appointments. The first consultation is free.
