John was fantastic to work with. He was patient, kind, and negotiated a better settlement than expected! I also appreciated how he handled my case directly- I wasn’t passed off to assistants and never waited long for a response. I will gladly refer my friends and family to him with confidence.

Professional, relentless, and willing to fight for your rights! These are just a few of the words I would use to describe The Lapidus Law Firm. I was originally referred to The Lapidus Law Firm by my brother, who had just a few months earlier, himself been involved in a car accident. He had highly recommended the firm, but since I lived more than an hour away, from the downtown Washington D.C. location of The Lapidus Law Firm, I was somewhat hesitant to call after my car accident. However, I wanted the best, so I decided to call. From that initial phone conversation with Mr. Larry Lapidus himself, I was instantly convinced that I had made the right choice. My case lasted several months before we decided to settle the matter out-of-court at the Pre-trial stage. During the course of my case, my representation was professionally handled by Mr. Steven Curtis (attorney), who proved himself on multiple occasions as a worthy adversary against the defense and did an absolutely splendid job at each and every step of the case. I was extremely satisfied with his level of professionalism, attention to detail and commitment to my case. So, if you're hurt in an accident and in need of legal representation, I highly recommend Mr. Steven Curtis and the folks at The Lapidus Law Firm. They will fight valiantly to ensure that you get the compensation that you deserve. I urge you, call The Lapidus Law Firm now. It'll be the smartest decision you ever made.

I would totally hire Joe Scrofano if needed a DUI lawyer in Washington, DC. He would be the first attorney I'd call. I met Joe eight years ago at a DUI lawyers' conference. It was clear Joe stands out as one of the brightest, most creative, and innovative DUI defense attorneys out there. He has a relentless drive to explore new strategies sets him apart in our field. I've presented alongside Joe and each time I'm impressed by his deep understanding of DUI law and his ability to think outside the box. His commitment to his clients is clear, and he's very well respected by his peers across the country. In my experience, the best lawyers immerse themselves in their field, constantly improving. Joe actively participates in top-tier DUI defense organizations and always pushing for better outcomes for his clients. Also he's a great guy which goes a long way IMO.

He carefully reviewed the facts of our case, devised a legal strategy with us and aggressively pursued it. Mr. Zambri constantly kept us informed, answered our questions and reassured us.

Attorney Zambri is a cut above his peers on multiple levels. My case was complicated and filled with loopholes. Nevertheless, he 'fought the good fight' against corrupt insurance companies. I will be forever grateful to him. Note: he's had the same wonderful assistant for over 20 years, a testimony to his decency and caliber.

Attorney Zambri was a true blessing in my 18 year injury litigation. Attorney Zambri stepped into this case and rescued me from a sheer case of railroading, corruption and total deception that I have experienced with a workmen compensation judge and numerous Attorneys (of all races,creeds and colors) in the DMV. Suffering, threats and surveillance at the hands of the large insurance carriers and those Attorneys, shook my faith. However; I continued to pray and fight on my own to keep my case alive, but the law at that level was above my head..then GOD blessed me to meet Atty.Zambri, the consultation was open and honest. Attorney Zambri worked on my behalf against the suppressors of Justice and settled my case. Thank You and your staff, "Patty" in particular for caring, in a cold and unscrupulous world. Praise GOD!

When saying “thank you” isn’t enough. Craig's firm wasn’t my first firm, it wasn’t even my second firm. Craig’s firm was my third firm, I went to one of those commercial 1-800 firms first and was shoveled off to a firm that was located on the other side of Virginia, then I was referred by a friend to a local firm who just was not equipped to handle my case properly. Craig and his team jumped in and took control, and I immediately knew I had finally found the Firm that would take care of me. I have worked in litigation for over 30 years, well indoctrinated in the legal system, but I have no experience or background in personal injury and Craig’s experience and zeal really shined throughout the process. They listened, empathized, were extremely knowledgeable and efficient. A retired judge who participated in the case was extremely complimentary on what a great job Craig and his team had done to provide him with the facts and details of my injuries. I will always be grateful to him and the entire team.

Subject: Disappointing Experience with Simeon & Miller Law Firm I am writing to express my frustration with the legal services I have received from Simeon & Miller. I initially reached out to the firm in March after an accident in October 2023, which was not my fault. At first, the other driver's insurance company was working with me, but communication stopped, prompting me to seek legal assistance. I turned to Simeon & Miller after conducting an online search and reading the firm's reviews. Unfortunately, that decision has proven to be a significant mistake. Despite the firm’s 20 years of service, I found only five reviews visible, which should have raised doubts about the authenticity of their online presence. This was a possibly my first red flag. Since then, my experience has been nothing short of a nightmare. The lack of communication has been deplorable, leaving me feeling like I’m tracking a package rather than receiving the legal representation I need. After forwarding all the necessary information for my case, I was initially assigned a paralegal. Shortly after, I was passed on to another assistant, who informed me that she would compile everything and forward it to the attorney. However, after several follow-up calls, it wasn’t until September that I finally spoke to the lawyer handling my case, even though they had all the information since March. When I did finally speak with the attorney, the call consisted of them asking a series of questions, explaining the potential value of my case, and inquiring about the lowest settlement amount I would accept. I was then told it could take another 90 days to potentially reach an agreement with the other party. As the 30-day mark approached, I received another call from the lawyer informing me that the case had settled at the original value they had quoted. I then inquired about when I could expect to receive the check, only to be told that it could take up to another 60 days. To my surprise, I later discovered an email titled "Simeon and Miller" with no follow-up call, requesting me to sign papers for the release of the check. Despite my numerous attempts to contact the lawyer, I was repeatedly told they were unavailable. After leaving several messages, I eventually had to ask another representative for answers regarding my case, and they provided me with the information I needed. To date, I have still not received a call back from my lawyer. Furthermore, I received a letter from the at-fault driver’s insurance company confirming that the check had been forwarded to the law firm, yet I still have not been contacted by anyone at Simeon & Miller. I am left to wonder whether they are holding the funds in escrow, potentially making money off my settlement while I continue to experience an unacceptable lack of communication. If you are seeking timely and efficient legal representation, I strongly advise you to avoid Simeon & Miller. My experience has been prolonged, impersonal, and frustrating, and I will never use this firm again. Sincerely, Cynthia Allen

Paul Zukerberg is the man. He defended my rights when they were clearly violated by a police officer (Terrance Sutton). This officer would then later become the first officer charged with second degree murder (in a separate case) in DC history. Terrence Sutton was very dangerous and because Paul was my attorney, Terrence backed off from harassing me. Paul is the most sympathetic, caring, engaging, and smartest lawyer in Washington DC. I'd give him a thousands stars if I could pull them from the sky and put the in Google.

I was involved in a bad car accident a few months ago. As this was the first time having to obtain legal representation of any sort - I wasn't sure where to begin. Mr. Shaibani came recommended by a family friend and I decided to give the office a call. From the initial in-person consult through the settlement process, Mr. Shaibani and his team have been nothing but top notch! Through out the process they made themselves available to answer any questions (phone and/or email) and provided me with status updates on my case. They are very transparent and provided the best possible advise for me to consider. I will gladly retain services through Mr. Shaibani's practice again should such situation arise.

Excellent attorney and effective results I highly recommend the Law Firm of Stefan Shaibani. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Shaibani and his team for their professionalism and compassion. I was the victim of a pedestrian accident that left me with multiple severe injuries. Because of Mr. Shaibani's expert handling of my case, I was able to focus on healing rather than the legal ramifications of the accident. Mr. Shaibani and his team provided unparalleled service from the very beginning of my case to the settlement. Mr. Shaibani and his team were very responsive during this difficult time, consistently going above and beyond, and diligently pursuing my interests on my behalf to the fullest. I feel very lucky to have had Mr. Shaibani represent me in this case because without him I would not have received such a favorable settlement.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Al Clarke for several years while the office of Patrick Malone & Associates handled a complex medical malpractice case for my father. Prior to meeting Al and Pat, our case had already been underway for a couple of years with another firm, and it was in need of additional expertise and resources. Despite being faced with the unprecedented challenges of litigating during the Covid-19 pandemic, Al’s patience and tenacity were unwavering. He worked intensively with the defense council and negotiated a settlement. The final outcome provided us with a great deal of closure and consolation. It was a long road, but Al was certainly the best travel partner anyone could ask for.

I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Daniel Scialpi who pursued fair compensation to my case resulting in a desirable financial outcome. He stayed aggressive fighting on my behalf for over 2 years to help win the case. Although my case was quite unique and challenging, he never gave up showing true compassion for the unfortunate impact my injury had to my long-term health.

My car was hit by an 18 wheeler truck on the Beltway just before the Dulles Toll Road. The truck was traveling in the right lane and decided to change lanes without seeing my car. It hit the side of my car and traveled with my car for about half a mile. If it weren't for our seatbelts, my husband and I would have been killed. Luckily, the injuries were not life threatening. Mr. Cohen made sure that all of my medical bills were handled and helped me deal with my car insurance company. He was very thorough! I would recommend Mr. Cohen to anyone that has had a car accident in the Washington DC area.

I am so thankful to have Al Clarke and his firm take my case in these extremely difficult times. On top of Al’s demonstrated compassion, dedication, and grit, ultimately his creativity resulted in an effective avenue to resolve my claim. While Al and his team are completely professional, they somehow also made me feel like I was part of their family, and this case was personal to them, as they relentlessly pursued the offending party until my matter was resolved. I truly don’t know where I would be right now without Al Clarke and his firm.

He started off with a big smile and hello to me and my granddaughter. he came to my home. He gave me a second chance when it came to my broken heart. I was so broken and he listen to my every word. even when I was fussing and yelling at him. Alfred Clark became my dear friend I will never forget him. Everytime I was having a bad day. Al listen and listen some more. I knew the day I told him I wasnt happy about things and all he did was listen and before he always gave me a answer he always concerned my feeling. he got to know me and Noraye as a person and not a just a client. I will if anyone even have as problem as I have had. I will refer them to call Alfred Clark and his firm. I was very satified with the out come of my case. I will never ever forget. When things was hard he reached out for assist to make sure I was happy and always return my phone call. The Patrick Malone Firm in Washington DC should be # one for any person seeking Attorney assistance. They was there for me 100% They travel to my home and always gave me there full attention I was a very hard person to deal with because I lost my only child but the took my case and gave me one again 100% of there time. I thank them all from the buttom of my heart. Thank you Alfred and Patrick Assist.

I feel truly blessed to have worked with an esteemed lawyer like Al Clark. He handled my legal case with a sensitive and professional attitude. He is appropriately aggressive and knowledgeable. I placed my trust in him and would again without hesitation. Al admitted to not having much experience with cases involving the government/military, but he did the research needed for a more than successful outcome. I would highly recommend hiring him as an attorney..

We had a very successful outcome for our legal case that allowed us to stabilize our family's life after a brain injury. Yet it was the process of the case that was as important to us, because we had so much to manage medically, emotionally, and mentally, during this challenging time. Chris Nace and his excellent team didn't involve us unless they needed our attention, allowing us to place our focus where it was required, in our healing. Also, they spent time answering our questions, no matter how trivial, since we had never used a lawyer except in the creation of our wills. We felt prepared for the case, and informed of our options, but yet not burdened by too much information. We were given adequate preparation for the next steps, but we were not overwhelmed by a multitude of responsibilities. As part of their client care, we were able to help protect our children and other family members from the rigors of an adversarial environment, and to go on with our lives instead of being involved in legal matters. Frankly, it was Nace's straight talk that brought us to Chris and his father Barry, and it was their compassionate response and awareness of our situation that kept us optimistic through the inevitable ups and downs of this long, convoluted process. I would recommend Chris Nace without hesitation, as he has the kind of doggedness and integrity that you want on your side, and because this organization has the expertise and experience that makes a level playing field out of the surprises and biases of the legal system.

What can I say? I was involved in a crash over a year and a half ago, it turned out that I had some pretty severe back issues as a result of that. I immediately contacted Simeone & Miller, within 2 days I was in their office meeting with them. I was extremely nervous, didn't know how this would all turn out, knowing what medical bills are these days, Mike and Kiara (paralegal) kept me calm and educated throughout the entire process. There were some tough conversations and things that I didn't want to hear. The one thing Mike kept telling me was this all takes time. Well he was right, I can't say enough great things about this firm. I feel like we just ended a personal relationship with the conclusion of the case. I hope I never need to call them again other than to say hi. However, if I do I know once again I will be in great hands.

This guy commanded the respect of the judge and the prosecutor as soon as he walked in the room. At first I was concerned when he told the family no one with ethics can make any guarantees in criminal defense, but when he went to work it was simply amazing the way he defended my brother. He got the acquittal, but more importantly he assured justice for our family. I highly recommend him.

If you are looking for an Attorney that has your best interest at all times during your case. Look no further because Mr. Cammarata is who you want leading you through the craziness court cases can be. He has the experience of arguing before the Supreme Court to handling smaller cases like a pedestrian being hit by a taxi cab. Is involved with his community volunteering and organizing blood drives, & was one of the first Attorney's who became concerned with youth athletics and concussions giving a caring voice to his own community. When I think about what I had to go through with my accident, I feel so very lucky and fortunate that Mr. Cammarata took on my case. I can't thank him enough.

As an attorney with over 30 years of experience myself, I truly appreciate working with counsel with genuine subject matter expertise, common sense logic, hands-on court room experience and responsive communications! Katie, her partner and team were exceptional in every way. Having a very limited understanding of medical malpractice, I knew I needed a learned med/mal practitioner to guide me through a recent series of disputes related to medical care I had received. From the start I was impressed with the depth and commitment by Betram & Amell as my advocates. I felt fully informed at all times. My views were solicited and considered. And the entire legal matter was handled with an impressive degree of cost effectiveness! The outcome was everything I had hoped for and could reasonably expect and far better than if I had foolishly tried to handle the matter myself. Katie was exceptional and I highly recommend her based upon my experience working with her over the past year!

From the first time I spoke to Catherine, she was extreamly passionate about her job and it radiates of her. This was a huge factor for me as I wanted a real human being not just a heartless firm looking for a quick payout. It was a very smooth process. I was able to send over my medical records for an in-depth evaluation by her medical experts. I believe that it was a pretty quick turn around time for this. Once she was able to verify the medical malpractice via the medical records, this is when she got down to business. Catherine had a very fast response time to file the claim with the military and demand answers for my sheer lack of medical care over the course of 37 months. She also found the right medical experts to help me go against the clinic that made me suffer. We went through countless attempts of the military trying to dismiss my issues. She always was one step ahead of the trickery that they were trying to pull. I believe that while I am unable to get the days I lost due to the malpractice at the hands of the military, Catherine and her team of experts were able to get a more than generous settlement for what my family and I had to endure. If you have any doubt whether she is the right fit for your legal issues, I am here to say do not hesitate to go with her. I am so very grateful that I found her. I think that she truly cares about the person in her cases and this is something nowadays that is so hard to find. Thank you Katie from the bottom of my heart for representing me through this horrible time in my life and turning so many negatives in to a positive. With the settlement, I was able to get I can rebuild what was taken from us. Thank you a thousand times! I hope you will never ever have to represent me again in a situation like this but if ever do I find myself in a situation like this I would never hesite to go with you.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You

A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.

If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.

When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?

Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:

  • Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
  • Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
  • Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
  • Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
  • Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
  • Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.

What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?

A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
  • Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
  • Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
  • Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
  • Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
  • Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.

How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?

Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
  • Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.

Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a car accident lawyer is generally based on the contingency fee arrangement. General estimates include:

  • Contingency fee percentage: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. For example, if you receive a $100,000 settlement and the lawyer's fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000, and you'd keep the remaining $67,000.
  • Case expenses: Additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness costs, and administrative fees can range from $1,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.

Ensure you get a clear explanation of fees and expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Car Accident Lawyer

Before hiring a car accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:

  1. What experience do you have with car accident cases?
    Confirm the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, especially involving serious injuries or complex liability issues.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial.
  5. Will you handle my case personally?
    Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement.
  6. What kind of compensation can I expect?
    Ask about the types of damages you may be entitled to, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

How to Check the Credibility of a Car Accident Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  • Review their experience: Look for specialization in personal injury and car accident cases.
  • Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
  • Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
  • Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:

  • Police report: A copy of the accident report filed by the police.
  • Medical records: Documentation of your injuries, treatments, and medical expenses.
  • Photos and videos: Any visual evidence from the accident scene and of your injuries.
  • Insurance information: Copies of your insurance policy and any correspondence with insurance companies.
  • Witness information: Contact details and statements from any witnesses.
  • List of questions: Prepared questions about your case and the legal process.

Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
