Percy Martinez

What Percy Martinez does

Percy Martinez is a Florida-based medical malpractice law firm founded in 1993 by Percy Martinez, Esq. (FL Bar #981990), operating as a solo/small-shop practice (1-10 employees) under the legal name Percy Martinez Law Office, with DBA Percy Martinez Medical Malpractice Lawyers. The firm exclusively handles catastrophic medical malpractice cases in Florida across nine practice areas: medical malpractice, birth injury, surgical error, diagnostic error, anesthesia negligence, medication error, hospital malpractice, nursing home neglect, and wrongful death. Service is delivered through four regional offices (Miami headquarters, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville) covering all major Florida judicial circuits.

The firm's technical stack includes a proprietary valuation software tied to National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB) trend lines that produces damages dossiers for insurers, a proprietary 42-point pre-suit compliance audit covering Florida § 766.203 physician affidavit requirements, and a HIPAA-compliant encrypted client portal with ADA, Spanish, and Braille accessibility. The firm does not develop AI/ML products but launched an emerging 2026 practice area targeting AI-assisted diagnostic errors in hospitals (radiology, pathology, ICU triage), analyzing model audit logs and physician override behavior under § 766.102.

The revenue model is contingency-fee legal services governed by Florida Bar Rule 4-1.5(f)(4)(B): 33⅓% of recovery if resolved before filing and 40% if litigation is filed. Case costs (experts, depositions, records, graphics, life-care planners, typically $75,000-$250,000) are advanced by the firm and reimbursed only from recovery; clients owe nothing if there is no recovery. The firm accepts approximately 1 in 10 inquiries, screens cases under § 766.203 before acceptance, and reports $240M+ in cumulative client recoveries with a 100% recovery rate for accepted clients from 2015 through 2026. GTM is selective enterprise-style intake with 24/7 phone, website form, live chat, and bilingual English/Spanish support, plus content marketing, SEO, national earned media, and social channels to drive qualified plaintiff inquiries.

Direct peers

• The Haggard Law Firm: Florida-based plaintiff trial firm exclusively focused on medical malpractice, birth injury, and wrongful death. Highly comparable peer given shared Florida geography, med-mal exclusivity, and similar catastrophic-case verdict profile — likely the firm's most direct Florida competitor.
• Levin Papantonio Rafferty: Pennsylvania-headquartered but with significant Florida office presence, this mass tort and plaintiff firm operates a comparable medical malpractice practice alongside pharmaceutical and class-action work. Comparable in contingency-fee model, media presence, and catastrophic-injury case selection.
• TorHoerman Law: National plaintiff firm with active medical malpractice, birth injury, and pharmaceutical injury practice. Comparable in contingency-fee catastrophic case selection, multi-state med-mal plaintiff work, and use of physician-expert screening before case acceptance.
• Janet, Janet & Suggs: National plaintiff firm with a dedicated medical malpractice and catastrophic injury practice. Comparable in handling birth injury, surgical error, and misdiagnosis cases on contingency, with a similar thought-leadership emphasis on complex medical evidence and damages-dossier-style case preparation.
• Searcy Denney Scarola: Florida-based plaintiff-side medical malpractice and personal injury firm with a comparable catastrophic-injury focus and decades-long track record of multi-million-dollar verdicts. Most directly comparable peer given shared Florida geography, med-mal exclusivity, and similar verdict-driven marketing model.
• Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein: Nationally recognized plaintiff firm with a dedicated birth injury and medical malpractice practice (In re Philips CPAP, mass tort med-mal work). Comparable in catastrophic-injury plaintiff work, ABPLA-certified trial lawyers, and contingency-fee model, though with broader geographic reach and a mass-tort orientation.
• Andrus Wagstaff: Plaintiff firm with strong medical malpractice and mass tort practice, including Daubert-style expert work on medical evidence. Comparable in contingency-fee catastrophic injury work and in use of proprietary expert-network methodology to evaluate cases before acceptance.

Broad incumbents

• Morgan & Morgan: Largest plaintiff-side personal injury firm in Florida with a substantial medical malpractice practice alongside auto, premises liability, and mass tort. Competes for the same Florida med-mal victims but at much higher volume and broader practice scope, serving as the dominant incumbent the firm competes against for high-value cases.
• Hagens Berman: Major national plaintiff firm with pharmaceutical, medical device, and birth-injury mass-tort practice. Comparable in representing catastrophically injured patients against hospital systems and device manufacturers, but operates at scale and through class actions rather than individualized trial work.

Regional players

• Hilliard Martinez Gonzales: Texas-based plaintiff firm specializing in catastrophic injury, medical malpractice, and birth injury cases. Highly comparable in case-type mix and contingency-fee catastrophic-injury model, but operates in a different plaintiff jurisdiction with different damages caps and presuit requirements.
