Florida Personal Injury Lawyers - Securing Justice for Florida Accident Victims
Only 1% of Lawyers Board Certified – Clark Fountain Legal Team Included.
Clark, Fountain, La Vista, Prather & Littky-Rubin is a West Palm Beach personal injury law firm that represents accident victims and other injured plaintiffs throughout the state of Florida and the United States.
We use the substantial intellectual and financial resources at our disposal to handle complex litigation, while maintaining a strong commitment to each client. Our relationships with our clients and other lawyers throughout the country make up the foundation of our law firm — a foundation built over decades of serving plaintiffs at the local and regional level.
Our attorneys provide individual-oriented and warm guidance to our clients from the initial case evaluation through settlement and trial, and if necessary, our in-house appellate division continues client representation through to final resolution and we are ready to help you navigate the appellate court process. This end-to-end perspective is fundamental to the way we advocate for clients.
Our contingency fee format means the clients we represent do not pay a fee or case costs unless we win. It’s our promise that our interests are aligned with our clients’ interests, and that our team invests the time and attention necessary to understand each case no matter how complex, to stand by you through every stage of litigation.

No Fees Unless We Win
The time after a serious injury is never the ideal time to think about affording a lawyer. Every case at our law firm is on a pure 100% contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay a fee or case costs unless we win your case. You will never get a fee bill in the mail from us. The “fee” you pay comes from the final settlement or verdict amount.
You never provide payment via cash or credit.
Our Florida Personal Injury Lawyers choose to offer a contingency fee structure for three key reasons:
we value the opportunity to provide assistance to struggling people during one of the most difficult and challenging times of their lives.
In many cases, our legal advocacy has left a resounding echo in the way businesses, agencies, and other industry stakeholders handle the safety of their products and services: positively impacting public safety.
Providing a referral fee to attorneys outside their practice area allows a client specialized representation while acknowledging the importance of the referral fee process.
With contingency fees, you can be confident knowing that your interests as a client and our interests as lawyers are aligned because our rates rise and fall together. If we lose, we don’t get paid for our time or investment on your case.
This makes us want to win for you even more.
You can rest assured that we are dedicating our resources to your personal injury case.
Changing Lives and Changing Laws
Building a Safer Future
We are zealous and thoughtful advocates for our clients, many of whom have had their lives irrevocably changed in the wake of the defendant’s negligence or wrongful misconduct. As such, we are committed to affecting regulatory and organizational change in the hopes that nobody else has to suffer the same sort of harm in the future.
In the United States, persuasive arguments can set legal precedents that last a lifetime — or longer.
Civil litigation is an important avenue for imposing change at the organizational level, too. By exposing businesses to damages liability — in other words, by raising the “cost of doing business” — they are forced to reconsider their existing safety and cost assumptions.
Civil injury litigation often leads to safety-related changes that prevent injuries and save lives.
For example, following a major lawsuit related to assembly defects, a manufacturer is likely to tighten their product inspection processes. The attorneys at Clark Fountain have the reputation and influence to help businesses reconsider decisions that put consumers at risk, ultimately making roads, products, medical devices, and automobiles safer for all.
