I lost a portion of my finger after being bitten by a dog at the apartment of a neighbor. Being an attorney myself in a different field of practice, I found Peter Briskin's handling of my case to be excellent. He kept me updated on the progress of my case and his court submissions were excellent. Due to the defendant in my action, numerous court appearances were required as well as motion practice and oral argument. Peter's representation was excellent. You are in good hands with .

I came to the Friscia and Associates law firm with a very complicated case. Had I realized just what a sisyphean task I had handed to them, I would have never proceeded. Despite the difficulty of the case, Mr. Minkove proceeded with diligence and skill. I doubt I could have found a better law firm to handle my case. I was treated with respect and dignity and kept informed of the myriad twists and turns of the proceedings. I was completely satisfied with their handling of the case and would recommend them to anyone. If they could get as far as they did on such a trying legal matter, handling the routine or even slightly complicated case would be child's play for them. They are dedicated to the ethical practice of law and a true client advocate in every sense of the word. You would do well to seek their counsel. They also have a hidden asset in their office manager, Michele, who has the calm demeanor and comforting nature of an angel, but works with the efficiency and drive of a hardened laborer. She is a marvelous asset to the office and an ambassador to the clients that cannot be underestimated. As a practicing emergency physician, I particularly regard compassionate efficiency as the highest credential. All in all, a great law firm. Sincerely, Dr. Dave

Please be cautious of this law firm. Several warning signs should not be ignored. Mr. Brown, in particular, was highly problematic. He attempted to have me undergo anger management without my knowledge as part of a deal he made with the prosecutor. Neither he nor the law firm returned my calls, and he failed to appear in court when required. He lacked communication skills and legal knowledge. He seemed more interested in cutting deals with prosecutors than defending clients' rights. I eventually had to hire another lawyer who could highlight the inconsistencies in the false charges against me, resulting in the dismissal of the case.

I want say thank you so much to David E Maran Sir for true guidance about my question and confusion as I am totally unknown for Americans Legal System and my poor English language..

I want to say David Sir God Bless you and all your family..
Please who read my review give your first preference to David Sir as your Lawyer / Attorney..

After I slipped and fell on a puddle of water in a department store bathroom, I didn't know who to call. My aunt recommended Robert Solomon, so I gave him a call and I'm so glad that I did. He answered all of my questions. The client communication was excellent. The office staff was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Mr. Solomon even gave me his cell number to call anytime. Although the department store initially refused to make a settlement offer, after 18 months of litigation, Mr. Solomon obtained a six figure settlement for me. Mr. Solomon is a very strong negotiator. I definitely recommend Robert A. Solomon's office to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney.

I suffered a devastating injury at work when a scissor life tipped over and crushed my foot. A friend referred me to Mr. Solomon and I'm so glad that he did. He sued the town that was responsible for my injuries. The case took several years to resolve. Mr. Solomon always returned my calls and kept me fully informed as to the progress of my case. He settled my case after a mediation for almost 2 million dollars. I now have enough money to live comfortably for the rest of my life.

I feel obligated that I need to post this. I had previously posted a review on December 25th 2014. The only reason I made a post is because I was asked many times by Robert Solomon (Metrolaw) himself to make a post because he wanted to elevate his rating. I was pressured and bullied into doing this and did not feel comfortable posting a review because Mr. Solomon was not done with this case, not even close to being complete, but I was afraid if I did not do it he would take it out on me. I have the original emails of him asking me to do this as well as the email I submitted to AVVO to prove authenticity and truth.
Mr. Solomon is not a truthful person by any means and I found out many things he did behind by back.
As a matter of fact I do not feel he cares very much about his clients. I was sent another clients personal medical information and documents. I could only guess this was done in error and or negligence because there was no connection between my case and the other person's case, a client named Susan. I can only wonder if this is the same Susan who posted a review. I also received other clients documents that are not medical. What is sickening is that I told Mr. Solomon many times he sent me these documents and not one did he ever ask for me to send them back. Great way to look out for your clients over a situation Mr. Solomon caused.
I see on the AVVO website on Mr. Solomon's profile "we have not found any instances of professional misconduct for this lawyer". I am confused.....Mr. Solomon shared with me in depth multiple times he and or his firm had been sued for legal malpractice many years ago. He always spoke about how this affected his legal malpractice insurance policy.
I can name many other serious issues but I will let them be handled in the proper fashion.
I highly question any review on this profile after I was pressured into submitting a review. Mr. Solomon should try and put the effort in and do the work and earn a favorable review instead of bullying a client into submitting one.
Lastly, I see why he had removed from his profile he was a former municipal Judge in his hometown of Norwood. Google and read the order from the Supreme Court of New Jersey. They found his conduct and violation of rules/ laws to be serious enough that he was censored and banned him from holding or securing judicial office for a period of 5 years. WOW
Don't be fooled by Robert Solomon or Metrolaw. Find an attorney who is truthful, follows the laws and actually cares about his clients.

I have worked, or I should say his staff has worked with me over numerous legal levels. I have not one word of dissatisfaction. The results have always exceeded my expectations. You won't be disappointed with Ed Berger, Stanley Marcus & McKenna & this experienced team of proficient able attorneys. If you decide elsewhere, just know that you are losing money.

Mr. Bailey is very unprofessional and money hungry. He will tell you what you want to hear just to get your money and then never do anything for you. I had him for a whole year and he did absolutely nothing for me he was supposed to, so I fired him and hired a new attorney and he did in a month what mark didn't do .

Mark Bailey is amazing! He is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and does everything he can do to fight for his clients. I hired him for a criminal case. He was very kind and respectful. Mark listened to my side of the case and devised a great strategy. He also took time to listen and talk to me whenever I became anxious.
After long efforts on his part, the Plaintiff decided not to pursue the case. Mark called me immediately. He always kept me apprised of what was going on and made me feel included. Don’t go it alone. Save money in the long run by hiring the best.
Mark is my go-to attorney. I have already referred a contact of mine to Mark and will continue to sing his praises for years to come.

We hired him for modification, he took retainer, all documents and nothing was done in 3 years!!! We were very understanding when he told us he had covid, heart problems, other cases, etc... but enough is enough! Now he doesn't even reply to our requests to return our papers/money with no explanation. Avoid him at all cost!! If he scamed you the same way, file the complaint with bar association. He needs his licence to be suspended/revoked until he returns all the money he stole from unaware people.

DO NOT HIRE THIS LAWYER. PLEASE save yourself the trouble. I gave this man crucial evidence during a domestic case, and he didn’t submit one piece of evidence. Not one. When the judge asked him why didn’t he submit any evidence his response was, “It’s just them two going back and forth”. But it wasn’t. That evidence was proof that she was not a victim in fear for her life, but a master manipulator and provoker. I gave him a list of cross examination questions to ask her. Questions that would back up the proof I gave him (that he didn’t submit as evidence) that she was in fact a liar and wasn’t in fear of her life. People who are in fear for their lives do not say and do the things she did. Period.
I asked him to find out why she lost custody of her first son, he said he would, but failed to do so. And didn’t give any updates. I literally had to beg this man for information. Just to tell me it wouldn’t be admissible in court. So I did some homework. Called two other attorneys, and was told that he can in fact can submit that as evidence. But he didn’t.
I should’ve been fired him, but already paid my retainer. I don’t have it like that to keep paying to play these legal games. He also doesn’t respond in a timely manner. Sometimes he won’t respond AT ALL.
The absolute epitome of a horrible lawyer.
The list doesn’t stop. And this is ALL FACTUAL. Shall I continue? Ok…
Every time there was a court date, he never followed up until the day of. When court was cancelled, he didn’t notify me until I called him the day of that cancelled court date. I was excited to possibly see my daughter again. It literally felt like Christmas waiting for court, only for him to tell me it was adjourned after I was already on the way.
Not to mention, he adjourned another one of my court dates because of a heart issue that he had. Granted, I understand things happen and people have lives. But because of that, ultimately it’s been 10 months since I’ve seen my 3 year old daughter. 10 months. What about the pain of my daughter and I? Who cares about us? Not to mention, a final restraining order for harassment is on my background for life because I sent her mother some pretty nasty text messages. Never put my hands on her. No history of violence. Just my reaction to emotional torture. Im a father who cares. But Who cares about the abuse on fathers? Because that’s exactly what this was. Abuse.
She took my child to another state before any threat was ever made with no good reason, and that isnt punishable? All I wanted was to see my child. I did everything I was supposed to do. Filed for an emergency hearing and was told that me having no contact with my child for over 5 months wasn’t legitimate enough for an emergency hearing. To be quite honest, I don’t even think he put in the petition for an emergency hearing, like I requested him to. Simply because he hasn’t done anything I’ve asked him to do. Not one thing. That’s how messed up this entire thing went. I don’t have the kind of money to hire another attorney, and I think he knew that. Reason why he took advantage. If the courts actually cared for the well being of the child all of this could’ve been prevented. There’s no excuse why 10 months has gone by without me physically seeing my child. But they add fuel to the flames by allowing the alienation of a parent months and months on end. They want you to react. But if the roles were reversed, none of this would have been tolerated from the start. It’s really friggin sad how the system works.
Especially when you pay someone your hard earned money to defend you, and they do the complete opposite.
He’s part of the problem.
STAY AWAY. HIRE SOMEONE WHO CARES. HE DOES NOT. Update: he adjourned another VIRTUAL court date hearing. 3rd time

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.
