Chuck may be my younger brother, but in so many ways, I look up to him. Working alongside my brother all of these years has been an absolute joy–even when we’ve butted heads. He is the perfect counterpart, an ever-listening ear, and, I’m honored to say, my friend. The firm simply would not be where it is today without Chuck’s continued guidance.

I can’t thank them or refer them enough!!!

These guys have such high rating for a reason. I received excellent service from multiple attorneys and paralegals. And the case outcome was actually even better than what I had hoped for. I can’t thank them or refer them enough!!! Thank you again!

They went above and beyond for me

I would recommend Farah & Farah to anyone that needs representation. In my book they went above and beyond for me and that’s all that matters. I’m even willing to say it in a commercial because you all have truly changed my life. My family and I thank you so much for all you have done.

I cannot give enough praise and thanks to Farah & Farah

My attorney Joseph Presutti was excellent. Mr. Presutti took my case after another large Law Firm and Attorney sat on my case for over a year and then dropped me. That attorney said that I did not have a case. Mr. Presutti’s faith in me and my case got me awarded a very large sum. I highly recommended Farah and Farah.

Meet Chuck Farah

Chuck Farah is the senior partner of Farah & Farah. Chuck started his legal practice as a Jacksonville personal injury attorney after first considering a career in accounting. However, after a summer internship at his brother Eddie’s small law firm, Chuck became hooked on fighting for the underdog. So he completed law school, joined his brother, and the firm officially became Farah & Farah. Chuck’s deeply analytical mindset and heart for service helped him and Eddie build Farah & Farah brick by brick. With a long list of case wins, Chuck has earned his reputation as a bulldog in the courtroom and a natural leader who inspires those around him to go the extra mile in each and every case our firm undertakes.

Everything We Do Here Is To Benefit Our Clients

Over my many years here at Farah & Farah, I’ve grown into the role of overseeing the operations of the firm. When it was just Eddie, me, and a handful of paralegals, that wasn’t a huge effort, but now that we have hundreds of professionals across dozens of offices and two states, it has become a little more complicated. My job is to make sure that all the moving parts are working together seamlessly to provide the best experience possible for our clients.

We’ve been intentional in every step we’ve made because we never wanted our firm to lose the family feel it was founded on. We’ve never micromanaged our attorneys; instead, we show them the respect they deserve so they can make the best decisions for their clients’ cases. We’ve found this approach to be powerful because it makes our firm a place where people actually want to come to work every day and give their best efforts. Through this collaboration, we’re able to achieve the best results possible.

Service Runs in the Blood

Eddie and I grew up right here in Jacksonville. Our mom and dad were first-generation immigrants and ran a successful community grocery store for decades. We saw through them that if you worked hard and always treated people with respect, you could be immensely successful. Our dad died when I was pretty young and we had to step up and work to help make ends meet for our family, but our mother made sure we never lacked for anything.

All of my jobs growing up were in the service industry. I worked at McDonalds, waited tables, worked in a bakery, and stocked shelves at a local retailer. Those experiences weren’t always the most glamorous at the time, but I’m so thankful for them because they made me appreciate the power of hard work, of seeing something through to the end, and how to raise the bar in how you treat your customers. As Eddie and I built the firm, we’ve never lost the service mindset. We treat all of our employees and every client with the dignity and respect they deserve.

The Details Are So Important

Something that still excites me about this field is that there is always something new to learn. Every case, every client, and every situation is different, and we can take something away from each case to get that much better. Maybe it’s the accountant in me, but I’m very detail-oriented. I love looking into the issues and working to reverse-engineer a solution. Eddie can attest I’m always seeing how we can make the firm better because there are always changes we can make that benefit our clients. Sometimes, that annoys our wives and families as dinner together almost always ends up with us discussing some new aspect of a case, but the focus on the details is something I truly believe has helped us be so successful over the years.

We also place a huge emphasis on training and development here so that we can be the best we possibly can be for our clients. Whether we’re bringing in the top deposition experts in the country to teach our team the latest techniques or simply celebrating client wins as a team, we’re always working to move forward. Other firms may not take that approach, but this defines what Farah & Farah is all about. We are a huge team, each playing our own role in getting the best recovery possible for our clients.

Eddie Farah

Founding Partner at Farah & Farah

We’re Here All the Time

As owners, we’re involved in everything from operations to best practices in how we manage cases. I’m still looking at cases to see if we’ve done everything we can to get the best recovery possible. We’re not absent or aloof; we’re a family here. Something I’ve learned over the years is that running a successful law firm requires actually showing up day in and day out. Being a leader means leading by example and by and large, I’m here every day. Eddie and I even work most Saturdays doing our Legal Live radio show on News 104.5 WOKV. The feedback we get from our clients and the community is something that still gets me excited to come to work every day.

What Sets Us Apart

It’s the honor of my life to have my son, Ramzi, here, along with my nieces, Dalya and Rawan, and nephew, Khalil, all working under one roof. My sister even helps run our investigations department. We’ve even had employees who have worked with us for so long that they truly feel like members of the Farah family at this point.

As large as we’ve been able to grow our firm, we’re still personal. Employees and clients get the best of both worlds with the resources, reach, and reputation of a large firm, with the personal, one-on-one attention in a small, family firm. That’s something that truly sets our firm apart.

Personal Injury Is Just That–Extremely Personal

When I was first starting out at Farah & Farah, I was in the Orange Park office when an elderly gentleman walked in looking distraught. He was carrying a pack of bills with him and asked if he could get a consultation. You never need an appointment for a consultation with us, but I could tell this case was already different and ushered the man into my office.

He started to tell me all about how he and his wife loved to travel, how they’d been married for many years and had rarely left one another’s side. They were heading out of town one morning on I-10 to go to a bluegrass festival when, out of nowhere, the husband plowed into the rear of a slow-moving dump truck. His wife would later die from her injuries. Worse, he blamed himself entirely.

A month later, living under the weight of this immense guilt, he also had a mountain of medical bills to contend with. Not knowing where to turn, he came to us asking what to do with bills he couldn’t pay. We took the case then and there to see if there was anything we could do to help.

Once we started investigating, we found that the dump truck hadn’t been maintained at all and was covered in so much mud that, at the time of the crash, the lights weren’t even visible. That fact made it certain that the accident wasn’t our client’s fault.

More than the recovery we secured him, we brought this man some level of peace and closure. He was a woodworker and made a box for me after the case to say thank you. The box still sits on my desk as a reminder that out of everything we do here, it’s always about people.

Being a Successful Attorney Requires Some Downtime

When I’m not at the Farah & Farah offices downtown or one of our many other locations, you’ll most likely find me outside. I love the peace, clarity, and mental reset that comes from being out in nature. Whether that’s hiking, kayaking, playing a round of golf, or getting the boat out on the water, I love just being outside. Eddie and I even still get together with a few of our high school buddies to hike and camp. The Florida Trail that runs along the Suwannee River is breathtaking, and you’ll see bluffs, ravines, and other amazing scenery all in one day.

When it’s football season, I’ll always be cheering on my Jacksonville Jaguars through thick and thin. One of my favorite games of the year, though, is when my UGA Bulldogs face off against Eddie’s Florida Gators. Even with the rivalry, our families always have a great time together, and that’s what it’s all about for me.
