I hired Chris to represent me for a claim against my own insurance company. Even though I had uninsured motorist insurance and the driver who t-boned me had only $15,000 and I needed a surgery, my insurance company nickled and dimed me and refused to pay me anything. Well, that led me to hire Chris, and he stepped in and that was the end of that. He made the insurance company admit they were wrong for not paying me and got me hundreds of thousands of dollars. I'll never forget Chris and what he did for me, and I would recommend him to anyone.

I am incredibly grateful to Danny and Carisa at Poolson Oden Law Firm for their outstanding work on my father’s case. This was a complex and emotionally charged situation involving not just my mother, but also myself and my three siblings, as we all came together to honor my father’s wishes and pursue justice. From start to finish, Danny and Carisa demonstrated a high level of legal expertise, skillfully handling a case against a prominent organization. What stood out the most was their compassionate and thoughtful approach—taking the time to understand the personal stories of each family member and ensuring that everyone’s perspective was valued. Their professionalism and empathy made a difficult process much easier, and I am beyond satisfied with the outcome they achieved for our family. I highly recommend Poolson Oden Law Firm to anyone seeking dedicated and skilled legal representation.

It is difficult to adequately describe the experience I had with Poolson and Oden in only one short review. I never wished to find myself in a position that required the services of an injury attorney, but a situation occurred, and sure enough, I needed one. As you can imagine, finding yourself in this position is emotional, painful, daunting, and even more blatantly, sad. I was frustrated and intimidated by all of the lurking unknowns of this traumatic event. But then I found a stable and experienced shoulder to lean on: Poolson and Oden. From the very beginning, it was evident that we picked the right law firm. They are not only knowledgeable, competent, and confident, but more importantly, respectful, nurturing and thoughtful. I never felt like less than family while working with them. Throughout the entire process, Poolson and Oden had our full trust. They never failed to fight for what was right because they believed in what they were fighting for whole heartedly. They are simply the best, and if you work with them, I am confident that you will agree. I am eternally grateful for their hard work, dedication, and persistence on our behalf.

I had an auto accident on March 13, 2020, during which I suffered catastrophic injuries. On March 18, 2020, I hired Mr. D' Aunoy Jr. as my attorney.
Immediately a problem emerged. My attorney refused to file a claim in court despite my numerous requests to do so, without explanation. Only in response to a written threat of dismissal, he did so during the last day of December.
According to our contract, my attorney was supposed to receive 33.3% of "the amount recovered before the deduction of "costs and expenses". Mr. D' Aunoy has never revealed what exactly expenses he had in mind until June 10, 2021, when he had received a settlement offer from the defendants. Then and only then, he has explained via email that he had in mind medical expenses, thus violating a clause in our contract that no party to the agreement can amend the contract "without consent of ...the client". Thus, Mr. D' Aunoy deceived me.
My attorney manipulated me into receiving medical services (MRI worth $3, 000 at 33% interest) and costly physical therapy, although I could have received physical therapy at my health club for a mere $57 a month. He insisted on my going to doctors and physical therapists to document my injuries because, he claimed, "nobody will believe you". Today deception became obvious. The purpose of his "legal" advice was to inflate medical expenses in order to increase his take in any compensation for my injuries and diminish mine.
Mr. D' Aunoy repeatedly refused to send me the defendant's settlement offer, thus denying me an opportunity to make an informed choice. He has attempted to sell me for $13.50 the police report of the accident that I had sent him last year free of charge. He loaned me $3,000.00 at the 33% rate of interest to pay for the MRI procedure without my knowledge or request. The same goes for $500.00 for filing the lawsuit and for $400.00 at 33% interest for the Orthopedic Evaluation Deposit, without my knowledge and permission. Also, Mr. D'Aunoy charged me for bills he received from my medical providers - the documents that I had received from them free of charge.
Because I was very unhappy with the way my attorney handled my case, I repeatedly asked him to step aside. He ignored my requests. So, I terminated him on Sept. 30. Also, I have filed a complaint against him with the Lousiana Attorney Disciplinary Board.
Mr. D'Aunoy was ignoring my wishes consistently, thus ignoring the primacy of the client's interests. His preferred medium of communication was silence. He showed no morals. He was afraid of going to trial. I was relieved by his departure.

Don helped us after my MIL was hit by a car in a crosswalk. Being out of state, he went to bat and became her strongest advocate. He explained things step by step, updated us on her progress and her claim status every step of the way. I deal with attorney's on an almost daily basis and Don sets himself apart from the rest.
He is personable, patient, understanding, compassionate, empathetic to the clients needs and exercises honesty and integrity.
He recovered more than what was anticipated for my MIL, he knows what he is doing!!! We recommend Don for all inquiries for Personal Injury.

Very pleased with the service provided by Don. He is very knowledgeable and handled my case in a very professional manner. He performed exactly what he said he was going to do, explained my options and potential outcome. He was realistic and didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear, and he delivered. Would definitely hire Don in the future for any disputes.

I worked with Ware Immigration Law Firm for my Permanent Residency (green card) almost 9 years ago. Everything worked out great, and even though it was a lot of work, I received a lot of guidance and advice from both my lawyer and my paralegal assistant. I am currently based in Philadelphia (I am an Assistant Professor and direct the PCOM Cardiac Arrhythmology and Electrophysiology Laboratory (PCOM CARE Lab)). Because of my previous positive experience with Ware Immigration Law Firm, I decided to work with them again on my Naturalization application. And I am really happy with the decision I made. I was able to prepare and submit my application with the invaluable assistance of my paralegal assistant Pilar Perez and my lawyer Samantha Hechtman. They were there for me whenever I had questions and concerns, and they assisted me during the whole process. I feel that they were able to deliver 100% of what I was looking for. They are knowledgeable, reliable and assisted me in a timely manner, and I was able to navigate the process without fear of making mistakes and in a very low-stressed mode (which was exactly what I was looking for). It has been a week since I took the Oath of Allegiance and became a US citizen. So I highly recommend Ware Immigration Law Firm due to the knowledgeable, reliable and empathic people that constitute their core.

Gusman was not my attorney but a family member. Mr. Gusman was very hard to reach. You would leave numerous messages by text, email and voice messages. It would take days for his return call. He was not a fighter for his client.
My family was not a drug addict or alcoholic. He was recorded by his ex screaming at her and judge ruled in her favor. Gusman just rolled over I definitely would not recommend him for a custody battle.

I hired Marlin to handle my divorce and it was the worst experience ever. I didn’t know I was officially divorced until approximately a month after I actually was and that was only because I requested an update via email. He took my case when he had a small caseload, but as he became busier and when the community property aspect of my case wasn’t as “easy” as we originally anticipated, he went MIA. He failed to follow up with me on so many levels until there came a point where I couldn’t proceed with him because my situation with Marlin was more stressful than the situation with my ex husband. Two years later, my community property is not settled as he only attempted to follow up with me to proceed after I filed a complaint with the board, at which time I was completely defeated and done. Maybe he has improved his professionalism and work ethic at this time, however, I was completely disappointed with his services and lack of communication with me. There were multiple emails and phone calls that went unanswered and it was honestly a horrific experience for me.

Mr. Ehrenberg spoke with me very few times over the 4 year period it took to settle my case. If I had an appointment his wife met with me not Mr. Ehrenberg. Once he set an appointment with me and his wife would go back and forth between the lobby where I was seated and towards the back of the building, I was never greeted by Mr. Ehrenberg. My daughter and I never even heard him speak. This was not a normal attorney/client interaction. Very little communication & shown no empathy. I still don't know what my diagnosis was to go forward with a lawsuit. I was told to find free clinics for medical treatment. My self-esteem & quality of life declined drastically because of my injuries. I would have to say not a good client relationship, he even accused me of stealing a refund check that was sent to his office, he had me in tears. I call this totally unprofessional. And then I found more clients he treated exactly the same.

I hired Harold Ehrenberg for a case that was not a "big money" case but was very important to me as it was against a massage therapist who injured me while performing a chiropractic procedure he was not licensed to do, and who lied about it when he was reported to his licensing board. I already had one attorney turn down my case because I wasn't seeking very much in damages. Mr. Ehrenberg was able to get the insurance adjuster to pay my claims without even filing suit, and I even received more than I expected. Mr. Ehrenberg is knowledgeable, professional, and kind; and despite my case not being that large as far monetary damages, I felt like he handled my case with the same care and expertise as he would handle a multi-million dollar suit.

Great Lawyer. Great legal team. Professional, knowledgeable and caring.
Mr. Ehrenberg handled our case in a timely manner and kept us in the loop at every turn. He explained complex concepts and help us make informed choices.
We were very pleased with the results. His negotiating skills helped us attain a settlement far more favorable than we had expected. We strongly recommend Mr. Ehrenberg and his legal team. We will use him again.

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:
-
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. -
How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
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.
