George is a amazing lawyer. He took the time to get every little detail needed and had my back from the second he walked in my door. When he says he can do something its not just to make you feel good, he knows exactly what he is talking about and his 30+ years of experience shines right threw. Never once did I have to worry if he was doing his job. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE looking for a stand up hard working lawyer. A+++++++

Georges experience and patience guided me through the case, and he was always on hand to talk and answer the numerous questions I had about the whole process over the period of a year and a half. I definitely appreciated the personal approach which is his policy . Then the out of court settlement was way beyond anything I expected. They knew who they were dealing with and the strength of the case that was being presented. Many thanks.

Dr. Zinman is a kind and caring attorney. I wish there were more people like him in this world. Although, he couldn't take my case because I live so far away. Out of the kindness of his heart, he advised me on how to protect myself from the negligent and unscrupulous dentist who ruined my veeners. Dr. Zinman clearly doesn't like it when the community gets taken advantage of. Because he was quick to share his wealth of expert knowledge for free with me and guided me step by step through the process. I have received multiple e-mails from Dr. Zinman, some times just checking in on me and providing answers to all my questions. I am so grateful for him. I highly recommend Dr. Zinman to everyone, he will go above and beyond for you. Like he did for me. Not only is Dr. Zinman an attorney with 30 years of dental malpractice experience, but he is also a former dentist. Which is why he's so brilliant at what he does. When I was researching for a dental malpractice attorney. I kept seeing many articles online regarding big money judgments for dental malpractice cases won by Dr. Zinman (look them up). I even read that he has sued Western Dental over 60 times and won. I was impressed and happy to see someone fighting for the underdogs, against the big corporate dental chains. Thank you Dr. Zinman for helping me and others in our desperate time of need. I'm blessed to know, such a devoted, highly intelligent, honest and caring professional as Dr. Zinman. May all the good you do, come back to you!

Mr. Zinman was admitted as a PRO HAC VICE on my sig dental malpractice in Virginia, and I subsequently filed non-suit shortly after Mr. Zinman and my attorney released the designation of experts testimony, since they never allowed me to review any of the dental records that the dentist presented, they never deposed any of the former employees that I recommended that had significant information, nor did they explain how they arrived at their decision which was contrary to my deposition as well as my excellent dental expert's opinion (specialist in Prosthodontics).. Specifically, the dentist who also has a law degree destroyed my entire oral health in 10 years time, in which he impulsively extracted of all of my 2nd molars without x-rays and informed consent, which also resulted in significant bone loss to my lower jaw area; however, the dentist never acknowledged the bone loss. During the 10 years of treatment, I did not have an ability to chew my foods from 2003 until my Board-Certified Prosthodontist restored my oral health in June 2013. This dentist extracted a total of 9 teeth w/o x-rays and informed consent: #29, #13, #10, # 5, #17, #20, #30, #31, and #15. The dentist also deliberately w/h my first 3 treatments beginning 8-28-02, 9-18-02, 10-2-02, for litigation purposes and fraudulently posted these tx's to my former dentist's record,previously retired. The dentist also usd former dentist's pt inform sheet with my name on it and crossed/o date and egregiously changed my husband's first treatment with him to my former chart and noted recent hx diabetes. This dentist also added add tx's to my former dental chart and then deleted billing record. Although I testified to this, and sent emails requesting a document examiner, my requests were ignored. Thus, the dentist did not present my attorney with all of my treatments and he presented false interrogatories. When the dentist was deposed, Mr. Zinman only asked dentist if he treated me at my former dentist's office, which he falsely testified he had, but that he did not remember the treatment. No further questions were presented by my counsel. The dentist also performed multiple root canals that were faulty unbeknownst to me that caused serious dental infections and bacterial infections resulting in endocarditis and residual heart valve residuals; however, no x-rays were presented in support of the root canals. I had 39 documented return dental trips that I made to this dentist's office for faulty crowns cracking and falling out, but at no time was this ever discussed with him either. In addition, the dentist placed a dollop of glue on my one implant without connecting it and then placed an open margin bridge over it that resulted in add'l inflamm (pus infection), bone loss, and the implant was left in place but no longer functioning as an implant. This dentist also kept me in temporaries from 2-25-06 until 2009, 2010, and as a result all of my teeth had decay on them. As such, he placed crowns over decay and the crowns had over hanging margins, which resulted in add'l bacterial infections. It should also be noted that this dentist only presented 3 x-rays taken in 2003, 2005, but no x-rays taken after crowns placed. Also, this dentist also alleged all of his laboratory receipts were destroyed by sprinkler system and when Mr. Zinman asked him if he attempted to obtain dup's after being notified of my complaint he stated he had not. Although the burden shld have shifted to the dentist, Mr. Zinman bent over backwrds and agred to obtain records for last 2 years; but,, no recds rec'd. Mr. Zinman also assesed me with med induced xerostomia to lessen the damges, which I do not....just the opposite drool all of time and he dismissed 1/2 of my tx's finding 1-30-06 as the date he fell below standard of care despite the fact it was a false date inserted by the dentist. The def also chargd me more than $60 thous, but falsely testified it was $43,000.

Ed Zinman handled my dental malpractice case. His knowledge is excellent. His legal writing is excellent. He's not one for hand-holding or spending a lot of time comforting a client, but as for expertise and advocacy, I can't complain. Zinman is a dentist and an attorney. He's definitely the go-to-guy for dental malpractice.

I made the mistake of hiring this lawyer, and I found three weeks after signing the contract that she started to treat me like a flunky employee. She started to get angry at me on a regular basis for (a) too many emails (b) not enough emails (c) asking for status updates (d) asking questions .... She negotiated a settlement about one-fifth of what she originally estimated she would get, and this settlement would have yielded me ~$500 profit after deducting her fees. She required me to make multiple concessions to the opposing party prior to negotiating on my behalf. The retainer contract didn't discuss administrative fees, but she charged me separately for copying, postage, billing. My billing rate for her secretary was $100 per hour, even though she likely paid her secretary ~$25 per hour. She padded her bill in multiple ways, so that after 10 hours of work, she had gotten nothing for me done. Her bill padding fictionalized phone calls and emails that never happened. Run for the hills away from this ill-tempered, unprofessional, inefficient lawyer.

Bryan is an interesting lawyer. He seems awesome then you see how he treats his clients. He will talk down to you, in fact, swear at you. He will blame you for not knowing things and get upset at the very end for major details that he and his partner should have resolved at the beginning; things that effect your ultimate settlement. Also pay very close attention between what he says is the rate and what you sign in your contingency agreement. He says one thing and then takes the bigger chunk at the end with no recourse available to the client. He generally settles or wins so that is the only reason I'll say I'd recommend him. Just be prepared to pay to be disrespected on multiple occasions, be prepared for him not to do his early homework-waiting till the end to realize that particularities needed to be handled when he first takes a case, and be prepared to hear their rate is 'x %' when in reality it is 'y %'. I had more stress from dealing with this attorney in some ways then the actual personal injury I sustained. Anyway, he's a pretty good lawyer with a very abrasive personality. If you can find another pretty good lawyer without these issues, then go for it! Good luck to you all!

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.
