I based my decision to hire Mr. Norfleet to handle my SSD application on the reviews posted. I was most attracted to the customer service part of the reviews.
From the begining of the application process to the end of the award of the appeal hearing, the entire staff was so friendly, caring, accommedating and sincere. Several times they would even meet me in the parking lot to get papers i was dropping off. It was difficult for me to walk the distance to get inside the office and all i had to do is call them and someone would come to my car to get the papers. Who does that anymore?!
Mr. Norfleet was so thorough and detailed throughout the entire 18 month appeal process. He made the process as easy as it could be during the appeal. At the appeal hearing, he was completely prepared and confident. He certainly eased my fears of the hearing. He advised me what to expect at the hearing and he was right on every count!
My case was settled very quickly (less than three weeks) which is very unsual. I attribute the quick resolution to Mr. Norfleet's thoroughness, preparedness, professionalism, and respect for the court.
I highly recommend Mr. Norfleet to anyone who needs assistance with their social security disability filing!

My daughter and I would like to take this time to say thank you for your help.
When we had a problem and didn't know where to turn, I ask God for guidance and we were sent to Andy Norfleet.
He is a very nice honest straight up person, and a great lawyer. Mr. Norfleet told us exactly what was going to happen from the very beginning. He did not give us false hope, nor did he mislead us on anything.
The day of the hearing he showed so much kindness for my daughter and myself. We felt like he was a good friend instead of our lawyer.
Andy Norfleet you are a blessing.

Kevin and his Associates namely Patrick were amazing to work with and a God send to us I. Our time of need. They especially had to work even harder during Covid 19 to make a safe way to put our troubles to a smooth and safe finish. They were caring and understanding to our personal situation in the health and well being of our son who was hit by a car. The monies they were able to retrieve are so important to our son’s new normal, new beginning. He was able to rectify medical bills as well and help us to find a way to put his monies in safe keeping of a special needs trust so he had safe access to his funds for his needs, while maintaining his forever life changing needs that will be met by assistance now and long after his monies run out. This recommendation was priceless. They are truly experienced professionals that never give up, and then theses recent uncertain times of COVID-19 they really pulled through! We are most fortunate that our son’s life was spared, but their help to give him back his life will never be forgotten! Thank you Kevin and Patrick and the rest of your team!

My daughter was in a car accident. A family member told us about Kevin. He had helped them . I called his office. His staff was professional and caring .I asked for a family meeting. Due to the accident we did not have a car. We were going to take public transportation. When Kevin called to set up the meeting I told him we would all have to take public transportation. He said he would come to our house. He did. He was so caring. He got the job done. And the final financial settlement , will help my daughter the rest of her life. Thank you Kevin!

Stay away from this law firm. Maegan hired our company to do an emergency service water remediation. She apparently decided that our fair price was too much and she would just pay half.
If she acts like this with contractors, what will she do when she gets her hands on your money...

I highly recommend Susan if you are looking for an attorney. We hired Susan for a criminal case involving a family member who had been arrested and charged with some very serious crimes that could of resulted in life in prison. The case ended up going to jury trial, and becasuse of Susan's knowledge of the law and her hard work through out the case the family member was charged with a misdemeanor and was released from jail immediately. She is a top notch lawyer and my family will be forever thankful to her.

I hired Melissa to handle the most delicate of cases, the death of my daughter. Not only did she take an interest in my case, she became part of our family. Her attention to our needs as a family and as a client was well beyond what anyone would ever expect. Her professionalism was unmatched by those on the other side of this case and her knowledge base rivaled the medical professionals.
Melissa and her staff are competent to handle any case of any size. They did not rest in my case until the truth was known and they spared no expense putting together a TEAM of experts to support the case. You would not be disappointed if you hire Melissa and her firm. They will get you the results you want.

I hired Mr. Kaiser for a criminal case for my boyfriend and Mr. Kaiser got all charges dropped without us even having to attend a hearing. He delivered the exact results promised and was very honest and communicative throughout the entire process. He was kind, sincere, and very accommodating as far as payments and meetings. I would undoubtedly turn to Mr. Kaiser for any and all legal issues in the future.

Patrick called me and wanted to represent me in my worker’s compensation case. He said I had a great case. Most of the work wAs done by Laura, his associate. She wears very nice. The first inkling that he was lacking was that he forgot to obtain a court reporter for my deposition with the insurance company’s lawyer. Mr Hickey sent me to a “pill mill” for treatment and therapy for a rotator cuff tear. Medical care was poor and caused my pain to increase due to their failure to diagnose a compression fracture in my thoracic spine. After 6 months Mr. Hickey said we had to settle and the most he could get me was $10,000.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional support Josh Geist provided in handling my auto accident claim. From the very beginning, his professionalism, expertise, and dedication were evident, and they made a significant difference in the outcome of my case.
Navigating the complexities of a legal claim can be overwhelming, but his guidance and clear communication every step of the way put my mind at ease. He was always available to answer my questions, provide valuable insights, and ensure that I was fully informed throughout the process.
Thanks to his efforts, I was able to secure a favorable resolution that I believe would not have been possible without your hard work and expertise. I truly appreciate the care and attention he gave to my case.
I highly recommend Goodrich & Geist to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their commitment to their clients and their ability to achieve positive results are commendable.

Josh was professional , took care of my personal injury as soon as he was hired. He showed up to my door step after attacked by a dog , made it effortless on my part, and always responded promptly. There were times , I was stressed out and probably came off upset because of the whole incident , but he never once took it personal and reminded me when things got tough that I would get justice. The results were positive and my case was solved from incident to settlement in 10 months , which is pretty quick when it comes to law. I have nothing but respect for his firm and will use him again if needed. He really cares about the common Person and in this day and age, it’s hard to come these days.

We knew there was a potential issue limiting our resolution but Brandon and his team were diligent and appropriately aggressive to achieve the best possible result for us.

I was wrongfully convicted of a crime in the great city of pottsville (wow so unheard of, place is a joke noone does their jobs) off of a very untruthful report to the police. I used matt because he assured me it would be an easy beat. I have everything on camera and more evidence that proves my innocence and witnesses yet matt had me sign a waiver so I didn't have to go to the initial hearing where I told him I'm pleading not guilty(i was mailed a letter by his office that states this is what i wanted to do) instead he plead guilty on my behalf and took an ARD plea presented by the district attorney. He also did not tell me the TRUTH ABOUT ANYTHING. He lied saying if I took it to a trial I could be convicted as a felon( charge was only m1 cannot turn into a felony which I addressed with him at the status hearing where he admitted I was right) and wouldn't be able to get my firearm back or travel out of the country qith a felony charge etc. He lied to me about everything so he could just collect some quick money and wipe his hands of the case. He also did not tell me he wouldnt represent me in a trial until 2 or 3 days before the status hearing so I had no time to find another attorney and I wasn't informed that I could have pushed it back until I found adequate representation. When he told me in a meeting face to face at his office that he is sick of the police not doing their jobs and he wants to run for district attorney so he can solve all that I should have dropped him right away. All he did was screw me so he could get further ahead with his political career and extort some more money for the city. He coerced me into the ARD plea telling me it's the best course of action based off of all of his lies he told me. This is not what I wanted to do. I wanted my name cleared my gun back and the charges to go away and I wanted to go after the lady who called the police and lied, the cop and the city for how unlawful the entire interaction was. I was never arrested or detained my property was illegally searched and my firearm was illegally taken from me. This man has no morals and he abused the fact that we have history and used to work together and know eachother on a small personal level assuring me he could take care of it. The police officer who pushed the prosecution is no longer a cop with the city as he was fired for police misconduct. Now here I am stuck paying 2100 dollars in fines (was 894 from the papers I was given by matt and then later amended by the courts to 2094$ which I feel was a scam perpetrated by both Matt and the DA just to get me inducted into the program so I'm screwed either way. He has not tried to help me figure out the extra 1200 dollars I all of the sudden owe instead tells me on the phone that have bad karma and its still cheaper this way for me. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL ON HIS BEHALF. It's not about the money it's about the principle the fact that im being abused by the system for not breaking a law or committing a crime. This man is a fraud and a liar. Do not use his services for criminal defense and If you do do not trust a word he says.
Edited: also while I'm the middle of all of this i had received a letter from the lebanon county clerk of courts for unnclaimed property from my late father. I called Matt to ask him about it and what would need done and he explains to me its a lenghthy process and i have to do this and that and get papers signed by the witness of the will and it won't be easy because I have brothers who could also be ent8tled to that money but I am the sole executer of the will. I decided to retreive the paperwork from his office and i was able to do it BY MYSELF WIYHOUT THE HELP OF A SHEISTY ATTORNEY and got the email the other day stating the payment has been approved and is processing. He was just trying to get me to jump through hoops to justify a cost to me for their "help". DO NOT USE THIS MAN FOR ANYTHING. IF THIS IS THE STANDARD THAT MATT WORKS BY I WOULDNT TRUST ANY OF THE OTHER ATTORNEYS IN THIS OFFICE
CROOOOOOOKS.

I had the pleasure to work with Robin and was blown away. I’ve never had a lawyer represent me before and was very nervous, had no idea what to expect and absolutely EVERYTHING was on the line. Robin fought for me and was very confident that we had this case won already. I literally received the verdict today and she was right, we won.
This was a family court case and I was fighting to keep my ex wife from moving out of state with my children and now, I can continue being their father. Words cannot express my gratitude. 10/10 highly recommend Robin.

His attentiveness and dependability made the entire process very easy for myself and my family. I am certainly going to refer anyone I know to him because of the personal attention and knowledge that he provides.

Mr. Owens represented my father and my stepmother in a very complicated motor vehicle accident case and was very successful. He now represents my wife in a motor vehicle accident. Where other lawyers have explained that Limited Tort cases were next to impossible to win Mr. Owens gave us "a punchers chance" and better than that he won! Dean is a good lawyer and very personable and funny. I highly recommend!

Represented me in a complicated criminal matter, my uncle in another criminal matter, and my mother in a car accident case. He also represented a friend of my mother’s in a car accident case so in essence he has represented my whole family. He is dedicated professional and friendly. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a hard worker and straight shooter. Mr Owens is an excellent attorney who achieved great results for my entire family.

I hired Dean Owens to handle a case for me. He did not fare well and I made a complaint to the Bar. The outcome, he received a leer of admonition just last month. The Disciplinary Review Board determined his conduct was improper. The complaint and decision was based his failure to communicate with a client and lack of diligence. Owens had me pay, twice, for an expert witness in this case but he hired and had me pay for a registered nurse and that nurse was not qualified to testify. Again, I paid twice for this testimony which was useless. Based on various inactions by Owens, my case was dismissed with prejudice on 8 February 2013 where the court memorialized its ruling in the order citing "plaintiff's failure to serve expert reports". I was not informed of this and on 2 and 5 April 2013, I emailed Owens asking about the need to retain a medical doctor as an expert and that I was looking forward to the trial. Never heard about the dismissal of the case, with prejudice that occurred on 8 February 2013. After many calls and emails in April, Owens emailed me telling me of the dismissal two months earlier thus any opportunity to appeal was lost. Not only was my opportunity to pursue a case that involved mishandling of my Mother in a care facility, I paid twice for testimony that was not the correct form of expert witness.
I would never recommend this lawyer to anyone.

This attorney was given substantial money up front to do legal work and submit papers. After two months of not hearing back, he claimed he would start paperwork that week. Fast forward 4 months and still no word from him and no work submitted- claims he expected the rest of payment before submitting papers- which was a change in terms. I asked for proof of work done- he would not show me anything nor would he reimburse me. This lawyer is not to be trusted.

Attorney Brian Walters is not your average attorney. Let me tell you something about him. HE ACTUALLY CARES!!! He'll go out of his way to be there for everything you need and always listens to all of your questions. I first met Brian close to 20 years ago that I had hired for a close friend. Since then he's been there for me a few times. The last time I called him ,he was on vacation out west and when his phone rang , he actually answered it. It wasn't his office or any other associate,it was Brian that answered. Like I said before,HE ACTUALLY CARES about his clients. In short,,,, if you are ever in need of a excellent attorney, that will always be there for you, remember the name Brian Walters of the Delta Law Group!!!( Thank you Brian for all your help and support )
Respectfully yours

Paid $2500 for ONLY the preliminary hearing and she did nothing. Couldn’t even get him bond. She did not put up a fight nor did I feel she had his best interest during the case. Even worse she had no communication with us and was showing up late. I wouldn’t recommend her ever at all. We consulted with a different lawyer who said even said she didn’t do anything he shouldn’t still be in jail because it was an illegal search! He would be out if she did her job. I honestly can’t believe how bad she was. ( AND THE DEFENDANT IS STILL IN JAIL!)

I worked for a large company that forced me to work overtime and through breaks without compensating me. When I complained I was told that the company was a "right-to-work" workplace and that I was free to quit anytime I wanted. I basically felt like my job was threatened if I didn't go along with what I was told to do. Also, I was considered only a part-time employee when I worked sometimes as much as sixty hours a week. This eliminated me from receiving benefits like full health care and paid vacations. When I brought my story to Ms. Enders, she walked me through the negotiations and court process and explained everything in a way that I could understand. The company I worked for eventually admitted to the wrong they did and I was compensated. My story is important because there are others like me who have had to deal with the same situation. It was great to be under the care of such a concerned and genuine person like Kelly. Thanks Kelly!

Mr. Joesph D. Cronin hustled me out of $1700 dollars during what was supposed to be a free consultation to review my case. I never met Joseph Cronin before 8/28/18 and had only just contacted him for the first time on 8/27/18 to discuss a potential civil case. After that brief call he even text me to come into his office the following day to review my case. I assumed this was only going to be an hour at most and a free consultation according to the advertisement on his website and to review some evidence to let me know if I even had a potential lawsuit. Within the first 20 min of our or meeting Mr. Joseph Cronin stood up and said he needed to run back to his personal home real fast to check on something.
After keeping me waiting in his conference room for almost an hour, he then returns and apologizes for keeping me waiting. As I start discussing my case again, he showed very little interest in what I was saying and changed the conversation immediately to giving him a $5,000 retainer. He then left the room again to take a 40-45 min phone call while I just sat there waiting. As he comes back in the room again he immediately asked for the $5,000 dollar retainer. This was confusing to me because we barley went through my case and I still wasn't even sure if I had a potential lawsuit or not. When I refused to pay Joe the $5,000 dollars he grew very frustrated and angry and told me that I have wasted his time and that I needed to pay him for the hours he left me siting in his conference room. He even referred to himself saying, "I don't mean to sound like a cheap hooker but you need to pay me for my time." In all my years of business and dealing with attorney's I've never heard any of them talk the way he did.
I then told Joe I did't feel it was fair to pay him for the 3 hours I was there because 2 of those hours he kept me waiting in his conference room by myself and I originally thought I was coming in for a free 30-60 min consultation according to his text message the day before. This caused Joe to get extremely frustrated and demanded I pay him $1700 dollars right away. He literally got up out of his seat, stood over me and started yelling at me for not paying him for his time. He intimated me and made me feel extremely uncomfortable so I gave him the $1700 and ran out of his office. I never hired him, never got any legal advice from him and never signed anything with him. He used intimidation to get me to pay him and honestly he wasn't worth the hassle of arguing with. So I strongly advise anyone to be extremely cautious if meeting with Joe privately and alone at his office. If you are going to meet with Joe at his office, I strongly advise you to bring someone else with you as a second set of eyes and ears DO NOT GO MEET JOSEPH D. CRONIN ALONE.

He is a lair and does even try to help. He stated ro my husband, who at the time was incarcerated, that I wasn't in the courtroom, but I was there the whole time. Then he asked if my husband would take drug court.. he did no back history because if he did, he would've known he is a state inmate, and therefore, he was not eligible for drug court. He then got a continuance for what he said the next week. When, in was another month out. If you value your time and freedom, you're better off defending yourself than to go with this guy.

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.
