I suffered a car accident year ago, someone hit me, and by two colleagues, was referred to Michael. It was the best referral I have ever gotten because he helped me understand all of my rights and did so much work to get me a fair settlement. He is on time, explains in simple terms and humble. He also is a shark when it comes to defending your rights!

I have nothing but good things to say about Mike Goldsmith. My personal injury case was just wrapped up last week. Mr. Goldsmith made sure that I got everything out of the case as possible.
He is always pleasant to talk to, and always seemed to actually care about me, unlike other lawyers I've dealt with in the past. Everything he asked how I was doing, I could tell it was sincere.
When it came down to anything dealing with the case, he was always professional and was looking out for what was best for me. He stayed in constant contact with me throughout the entire process, he even followed up after to see how i was.
I could go on, but here is what you need to know. He is professional, kind, caring, and will fight for you. You can definitely trust him to get you the best possible outcome for your situation.

We were recently struck by a drunk driver, and had no previous experience in hiring a lawyer. We simply did not know where to turn. We first reached out to a few radio jingle lawyers and found EACH phone consultation with them to be worse than the one before. You were treated as a number by
their staff, and could never get an actual lawyer on the line. Through word of mouth Michael Goldsmith's law firm, thankfully, entered the picture. Out of the gate, Michael was friendly and genuinely interested in learning exactly what we had gone through. Each time we had a question, HE was readily available with a very well educated answer. At no time did he ever speak over our heads. He was clear, concise, and spoke in down to earth terms we could easily understand. He armed us with knowledge, realistic expectations, and his confidence was infectious which was exactly what we needed to win our case...which he did for us, by the way! He was really up on topics, yet remained curious enough to learn exactly what WE wanted/expected during each step of the process. On top of going above and beyond his duties to us, which he did several times, he was aggressive when we needed him to be.....was incredibly hands on addressing every email or call we placed to him...and was "old fashioned" in the sense that he took great pride in making sure that all aspects of his firm were handled with dignity and respect toward us. Each move he made for us was timely, but never hasty and he made sure the decisions we were making proved to be in OUR best interest. Goldsmith proved to be the gold standard in law in our experience....very highly recommended!

I don't know about you, but for me, navigating the legal system is confusing and anxiety inducing. When I worked with Koester and Bradley I didn't feel confused or or anxious. They were able to explain everything to me in a way that I could make sense of and worked tirelessly to help me get the results I needed. If you have a car accident case or a personal injury case you could do no better than Koester and Bradly. If I could give six stars I would.

Attorney Christina Hynes Mesco and paralegal Allison Wolcott are both knowledgeable and empathetic professionals. Christina’s legal expertise and experience were invaluable as she advocated for me, but what truly set her apart was her ability to align her approach with my personal and professional values and goals. She provided thoughtful counsel, offering guidance and support while adjusting her strategy as needed—knowing when to push forward and when to take a more measured approach. I highly recommend Christina Hynes Mesco for anyone seeking a clear-eyed, compassionate, and skilled attorney.

Heart of gratitude to Mr Tod Melton for his superior assistance from across the states…I am so deeply appreciative of your time and efforts Mr Melton . Tod was very thorough in investigating and presenting honest facts in a timely manner. He is professional, respectful ; yet kind and compassionate …I felt understood and validated as he listened to the bundle of confusing concerns I presented him. Having already spoken to multiple attorneys, litigators ect ….Mr Melton flexed to meet my needs , being out of state with an “in-State “ matter rather than turning a blind eye … His advice brought me a peace of mind, comfort and hope to move forward THANK YOU TOD ! You were a huge blessing to me and my family …I cannot say enough …

A truly wonderful lawyer! My family and I had a MV accident case, and Mr. Coffman took his time to fight for us in every way possible. No matter how long it took, he continued to fight even more for our justice. Mr. Coffman is very responsible, hard working but also so kind and patient with his clients. He was there to walk us through every step of the process and clarify everything even at weird times of the day😅. Mr. Coffman knows exactly what he is doing and gets it done right. His response times are very quick as well! So happy to have the case over and done with and a big win at the end of the day. Highly recommend him and his services. If I ever need a lawyer, he will be the first I get to call! Thank you for everything youve done for my family and I!!

I have used David Kremin for nearly 40 years as my personal and church lawyer, that is just long I have known him. All my experiences with him has been very good. His expertise is beyond compare. I trust him fully. He is trustworthy and compassionate. He is well versed in what he does and does not have you waiting in line to get a case solved. If I call him and he’s not available, all I have to do is leave a message and he gets right back with me. I remember when my church had a situation to arise, I contacted Dave and he advised me on how to handle the problem and it worked out in our behalf. I agree with those who find him to be one of the finest lawyers in America. I recommend him very highly to my friends and those who needs a top rate lawyer, who will be understanding and fair.

I have known David Kremin for more than 39 years. Of that time he has been the lawyer that I used for personal and my church. He has always shown concern for me personally and my church. He is only a phone call away. If can’t reach him right away, he always return the call in a matter of minutes. He is very knowledgeable in his practice. I rely on Attorney Kremin’s judgement and expertise. Any questions or concerns that I had, he’s was there to guide me. There was a time when I needed guidance in a matter he does handle, he referred me to another attorney who handle it for me. Many lawyers would not do that. I have recommended David to friends and any one who needs a fair and honest lawyer. David Kremin ranks very high in my opinion. We need more attorneys like him.

The Deratany firm represented my family in a wrongful death/medical practice suit and won!
The attorney's Jay Deratany, Mike Kosner and Megan O'connor went above and beyond to ensure a positive outcome. They not only "represented" my family they were aggressive yet personable and they fought hard. They did the necessary research, hired expert witnesses, were beyond prepared and kept me in the loop throughout the process. During our 2 week trial, my thoughts were even if we don't win, I know it's not because
my attorneys weren't prepared. The case they presented was flawless and I couldn't be happier with the outcome!!!! Believe me you want this firm on your side!!!!

Attorney Kenneth Hoffman represented us in a serious automobile accident. He was one of the most professional and responsive individuals that I have ever dealt with. He always returned my calls/emails right away and put me at ease when dealing with the medical bills that accumulated and the complex legal paperwork. I highly recommend using his legal service. He helped us tremendously through a very hard time and his expertise in personal injury law surpassed all of our expectations.

Mark Schneid of Law Offices of Mathys and Schneid is an outstanding lawyer!
I had the pleasure of hiring Mark to represent me in my case. I hired Mark right before my statute of limitations was set to expire on my motor vehicle accident as I had hired another firm to represent me in the beginning, that law firm did not work out well for me forcing me to discharge them at the last minute leaving me scrambling to find a law firm to represent me. I’m extremely grateful Mark came highly recommended by a friend of mine, after my initial consultation and discussing my case with him, I knew at that moment Mark was the lawyer I wanted and needed to represent me. Mark and his team got right to work and was able to file suit before my statute of limitations was set to expire.
I was involved in a life altering motor vehicle accident several years ago leaving me with a torn rotator cuff, spinal cord injury, the onset of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, PTSD, and anxiety related issues. I can honestly say Mark brings a compassionate approach in dealing with his clients, he truly cares and it shows! Mark was always there to answer any questions in a timely manner, he and his team kept me informed on the status of my case, and Mark always wanted to make sure I was doing alright. I witnessed Mark’s experience in the litigation and negotiation process first hand with the defendants lawyers, Mark was outstanding! He was very aggressive and fought extremely hard to maximize the compensation that I deserved.
If you are looking for excellent representation for your litigation needs, please consider Mark and his team and obtain the best and most aggressive representation as I did.
I highly recommend Mark Schneid of the Law Offices of Mathys and Schneid.

“I was struck by a car while cycling and severely, almost fatally injured. A team of excellent medical professionals performed complicated and extensive surgical and medical procedures as part of a successful effort to restore my health.
In the midst of all of the pain and effort associated with recovery, I had to shop for a personal injury attorney. I was looking for a respected professional to handle my case and ensure that I not only recovered appropriate financial damages to cover my medical costs but also compensation for pain and suffering. Mark Schneid was not the only attorney I talked to, but he was certainly the best. Upon interviewing Mark I knew immediately that he would not only represent me and look out for my best interests, but that he also cared about my recovery and the successful outcome of my case.
Mark is a passionate, bright and hardworking professional with excellent knowledge of personal injury law. His vast legal knowledge, trial experience along with medical and insurance industry knowledge quickly and efficiently guided us through the process resulting in significant risk mitigation and a positive case outcome.
His easy going style and articulate communications puts everyone at ease and provides him with a clear advantage in negotiations, while his meticulous approach and attention to detail ensures that nothing is overlooked.
During the time he represented me, Mark repeatedly proved that he was knowledgeable, experienced, honest, ethical, and committed to my cause. Most importantly, his negotiating skills made a huge difference in our financial settlement.
Everyone on the Mathys & Schneid team is a pleasure to work with, especially their paralegal Carrie King. Carrie’s research and investigative expertise was invaluable to our case. Her excellent communication and writing skills ensured that I stayed informed and up to date and her attention to detail guaranteed that nothing was inadvertently missed.
Mark and his excellent support team really came through for me. He is just the kind of counsel you want on your side… knowledgeable, personable and tenacious.

As an attorney, there are a few attorneys that I have come to rely on when it comes to referring cases to. Most attorneys, including myself, do not practice in every area of law. But, that doesn't mean we don't want anything but the best for our clients when we cannot help them with a particular matter. I have come to know Mark through a fellow attorney. At the time, I did not know any attorneys to refer my clients who had personal injury cases or were in need of an attorney to handle a medical malpractice case. When I met Mark, I knew he was the right attorney to send these cases to. I was impressed by his knowledge of the law and the practical nuances that come with years of experience. Mark is not only personable, he is also a bulldog in Court. He knows how to get results for his client. He is also highly respected in the legal community. Mark is also one of the finest trial attorneys I have seen in person. He understands how to present a case in way that people can relate to, no matter how complex the issues are. I highly recommend Mark to anyone seeking an attorney for a personal injury case or a medical malpractice. In fact, I only recommend Mark to clients in need of such services because I know the clients will be in great hands. Mark and his office staff are diligent, responsive to client inquiries and absolute magicians in Court.

Thanks to everyone at the law office of R.F. Wittmeyer! A little over five years ago I went into the office worried since it was unfamiliar territory. However, Ron and his team explained every single step to me and took on my case because they believed in my case. If they take your case it's because they genuinely believe that you have a strong case. They went above and beyond and always communicated with me whenever there was an update. Ron Wittmeyer & Greg LaCost were both exceptional and I recommend them to anyone that has suffered a personal injury. I couldn't be any happier with the results!

I hired Mr. Armbruster based on my personal knowledge of his skills and knowledge of the FELA law. His staff and Law partners are in my opinion, seconed to none. They handled my case with profesionalism, and personal concern. These were very hard times for me, as I had a great deal of pain from my injury, and had the stress of income loss to deal with. Mr. Armbruster and his office never let me down. Any problems that came up were delt with quickly, and correctly. My doctors and debtors too had confidence in Mr. Armbruster. I was able to handle every problem that came along through the process of my case thanks to this Law Firm. I truely hope anyone seeking help from a Lawfirm look no further than this review, in my opinion to go any further, or anywhere else, is a poor decision, and a waste of your time. These people are the very best!

After talking to him and seeing how "Dialed-in" he is with his profession, I was not looking any further. Not only did Marios save me money by doing things faster and with more efficiency than most, but he stayed focused on what mattered to me and got my the outcome I was hoping for. Thank you Marios

I had a medical malpractice complaint against a Dr who left me disabled. It was not a complication of the surgery. He damaged an area that he should not have been any where close to. The expert was weak and really didn’t look at all the facts. They lied to me about going to trial. They did not even get the injury correct. When I read the depositions I thought they were working for the physician. I wish I never had hired them. I haven’t been able to work since the injury and we spent a good portion of our savings on Dr bills. They dropped my case after 5 years and it’s been impossible to find a new lawyer. I’m now trying to get a job and no one wants to hire a nurse who’s disabled and has been out of work for seven years. Not only has this physician ruined my entire life but these lawyers didn’t know enough about nerve injuries to take the case. They also printed up a fake trial date on a court document and gave it to me to make me believe we were going to trial. Who does that?

If I could I would rate 10+ stars. Mr.Kenan Obaid is a great criminal defense attorney. We weren't sure at first because we didn't know what to do. When I first spoke with him he sounded very confident and promising which helped reduce and relieve the stress. I also want to note that he answered everyone one of my calls & texts no matter the time. He is very experienced he knows the judges and prosecutors very well. It was Friday the 13th but it didn't feel like it. He got
the case dismissed and told us what we needed to do next. We're more than happy with the outcome. I would highly recommend anyone with any criminal charges to consult with Mr. Kenan Obaid his fees are very reasonable for the quality of his work. He's very personable and he smells great.

I haven’t been able to work since the injury and we spent a good portion of our savings on Dr bills. They dropped my case after 5 years and it’s been impossible to find a new lawyer. I’m now trying to get a job and no one wants to hire a nurse who’s disabled and has been out of work for seven years. Not only has this physician ruined my entire life but these lawyers didn’t know enough about nerve injuries to take the case. They also printed up a fake trial date on a court document and gave it to me to make me believe we were going to trial. Who does that?

Stavros Law Offices provided me with nothing but incredible service, and affordable pricing. They communicated often and clearly, and were extremely friendly throughout the entirety of my case. Stavros blows any other providers out of the water. I will not be using any other law firm, should I need one in the future. I cannot recommend them enough!

Phil Bareck went above and beyond for me. I was injured at work and felt I was treated unfairly while out on leave. Phil listened to me every step of the way and fought a fight most wouldn’t. It was a very long and tiring battle but he never once gave up. He kept me in the loop and asked my opinions on everything. If you are looking for someone to fight for you Phil is your guy!!

Absolutely the best legal experience I've heard from anyone and arrival at justice in a difficult case. My company used an IME which lied. It was easily shown to the arbitrator and Mrs. Bridgette Kolb ensured justice and a fair outcome, recovering all of my lost workers compensation and covering a partial loss of my body due to the injury. I could not imagine a more effective or elite attorney.

A medical malpractice lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence or misconduct of healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, or hospitals. These lawyers assist in cases where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury or death. Medical malpractice cases can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.
If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to improper medical treatment, a medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand your legal options, file a lawsuit, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.

- No upfront costs: You do not pay any legal fees unless the lawyer successfully recovers compensation on your behalf.
- Case expenses: Costs for expert witnesses, medical record retrieval, and court fees may be deducted from your settlement or award in addition to the lawyer's fee.
Always discuss the fee arrangement during your initial consultation to understand your financial obligations.
