I would highly recommend this firm. Attorney Zac Cole helped me so much, he answered all of my questions and concerns. He learned everything about my case and I could tell how my case was truly important to him. He takes his work very seriously and will fight for justice looking out for the best outcome possible. Mayra was also great, always willing to answer questions and help in any way possible. I'm very grateful that I had their help at such a scary and stressful time.

I would highly recommend this law firm. I slipped and fell in a restaurant and the attorney, Zac Cole couldn't have been more attentive to my needs. He answered all of my questions and kept me informed every step along the way and I received waaaaay more in my settlement than I was expecting.

A Firm That Truly Cares From the very first consultation, we felt like more than just a case number. The team at Probinsky and Cole treated my family with compassion, patience, and respect during one of the most difficult times in our lives. Their professionalism was matched only by their kindness. They took the time to explain everything clearly, made sure we were informed every step of the way, and never made us feel rushed or overwhelmed. We genuinely felt like they were fighting with us, not just for us. Thanks to their dedication and expertise, our case was resolved with a result better than we ever expected. But beyond the legal victory, we'll always be grateful for the way they made us feel supported and cared for. If you're looking for a law firm that combines skill with sincere humanity, we can't recommend Probinsky and Cole enough.

Medical Care

Wage Replacement

Payments for time you can't work due to injury.

Disability Benefits

For partial, total, or permanent disabilities caused by work.

Your Workers' Comp Questions-Answered

  • How does workers' comp work in Florida?

    It pays for your medical care, part of your lost wages, and other benefits after a work injury-regardless of fault.

  • Do I need a lawyer for a workers' comp claim?

    Many claims are denied or underpaid. An attorney ensures you get all available benefits and appeals if you're denied.

  • What if my workers' comp claim is denied?

    We can appeal denials, demand payment of benefits, and even litigate your case if necessary.

  • Can I choose my own doctor?

    In Florida, your employer/insurer usually selects your doctor, but there are exceptions. We advise you of your rights and options.

  • What if I can't return to work?

    You may qualify for long-term disability, retraining, or settlement for future lost wages. We explore every option for your recovery.

  • Can I sue my employer outside workers' comp?

    Generally, workers' comp is your exclusive remedy, but if a third party (not your employer) caused the injury, you may have additional claims.
