Trolman, Glaser & Lichtman was able to explain my case to me very well. I got good advice on what my particular options were and an honest assessment of what I should expect going forward. When the world is falling around you its best to ask the smartest, hardest working person you can find what to do, and then do it.

I have worked with other injury lawyers in the past and some of them just look like they are going through the motions and taking whatever the company will offer. These guys are different. They'll really get out there are fight for you even when the insurance tries to stall and delay. They want to get paid so they'll work hard to get you paid.

I am writing to express my gratitude, kindness, willingness and support that was given to me when you assisted me during my time of need regarding my mother's death. You were always on top of the situation in making sure that the funeral home did what was necessary in order for me to get copies of my mother’s death certificate in a timely matter. Your perspective and encouragement meant a great deal to me. Also, when I was involved in a car accident I admire your organizational abilities in handling my case. I see Mr. Seilback as a great asset and an integral part of your organization and a major reason why I would recommend family and friends to your firm.
If I need future services in the future I will not hesitate to contact your firm.

I suffered a slip and fall accident and needed a trial attorney. I interviewed many lawyers, most were interested in a quick settlement, or just not interested at all. I was committed not to settle for a quick settlement. I was ready for the long fight ahead of me and needed a lawyer who was just as committed. I was looking for a lawyer who would fight, I found Mitchell Silbowitz. He took the case to trial,his firm brought in a high-resolution monitor and projector so the jury could see all the evidence better. He provided professional-quality poster size photo's to show the jury the environmental conditions of my accident. He provided a certified snow expert as a witness on my behalf to explain the icy conditions in my case. The most damaging thing to the opposition was not all the evidence or witnesses, it was the trial attorney provided by Mitchell law firm. She was articulate, detailed, and overcame all the obstacles in the trial. The outcome, I received 17.5 times more than the insurance company originally offered.

I spoke to Shayna regarding a personal injury claim for myself and another family member. She was professional, courteous, and has a lot of experience in helping others. She was able to answer my questions and is well-known for her experience as a trial attorney, and I was so impressed by her positive outlook and she is also a requested speaker at events. This shows she not only helps clients, but is willing to share her gifts not only on an individual - but collaborative effort as well. I look forward to working with Ms. Sacks and her team at Napoli Shkolnik, PLLC. I'm confident the team will be able to help me and I signed the agreement knowing that very capable hands are at work. Marie and Paul Napoli also have very high AVVO reviews and seem to have a very nice group of professionals in this firm. They are lucky to have Shayna and my family and I feel so blessed to have her for representation. I would highly recommend this firm and especially Shayna for any legal matters. They are a nation-wide firm that has integrity and a passion for their clients.

Mathew is a very professional lawyer that i highly recommend. Since day 1 Mathew seemed very confident, knowledgeable, responsible and an ambitious lawyer. I really appreciated the fact that Mathew always kept me posted on every detail of my case. I was involved in a serious 3 car collision accident that resulted in personal injuries. I had to endure medical treatments and therapy because of it. Mathew did a great job representing my case in court showing that my bodily injuries were due to reckless drivers and i was a victim of it. Mathew went into court very prepared with all my medical records, deposition paperwork and pictures of the accident. He went out of his way to make sure i was well represented. At the end Mathew won my case to the maximum settlement. I was very satisfied with the results. I thank Mathew and his wonderful team for their great efforts.

I engaged Mr. Dugan's services multiple times for our medical group over the last 35 years. He brings a clear and well defined perspective that results in good decisions.

He is easy to talk with, knowledgeable, creative and you can count on him to be your aggressive advocate while at the same time giving you perspective.

While my case has not as yet concluded, I believe that I can provide an accurate and forthright review of attorney Matt Gammons as he has worked on my case for several years and to date. I can state. unequivocally, that Matt Gammons, a partner with Rosenbaum & Rosenbaum P.C. on Wall Street in Manhattan, is the epitome of an attorney. A most knowledgeable counselor, he is also most ethical, sincere and honest as well as he is respectful and a gentleman. In working your case he takes his role as your advocate most seriously, listens to you and does his very best to keep you advised and informed regarding the status of your case. He takes the time to return your phone calls and discuss your case with you. His heartfelt compassion for your loss and his zealous fight for justice, be it for you or for your loved one, is what defines the man. While I do not know what the outcome of my case will be, what I do know is that Matt Gammons has given his "all" to my case. What I do know is that he has done and continues to do his very best on my behalf, per my loved one. I am very grateful and appreciative of Matt Gammons' expertise, guidance and persistence regarding my case and therefore, without reservation, I highly recommend Matt Gammons to anyone who is seeking "the best".

William T. Powers here.
Several years ago my son suffered a catastrophic brain injury ( TBI) in a fall.
I retained attorney Lawrence B. Goldhirsch and his lawfirm Weitz and Luxenberg to represent me on behalf of my injured son.
Litigation to recover compensation for my injured son was recently settled very satisfactorily.
There were two appeals to higher courts over a liability issue. This case was settled as a Jury was being selected.
Throughout the case, Larry B. Goldhirsch kept me apprised of each step and treated any questions I had respectfully. His sense of humor helped as well.
I highly recommend Lawrence B. Goldhirsch.

I was heavily in debts and was being sued by one of the collectors. A friend of mine recommended that I should file for bankruptcy chapter 7 so I searched online for a bankruptcy lawyer and came across J. Singer Law Group.
I contacted Mr. Singer, told him my financial issue and why I couldn't pay them. He accepted my means test and explained the process to me. It became that I hired him and he represents me.
I am so glad I hired him to take care of the bankruptcy for me. He is a godsend. I have to do part of the work too but It was worth it. He got my debt wipe clean and clean start. My case got discharged. Thanks to J. Singer and his law group for making that happen.
If you ever need a bankruptcy lawyer, J. Singer Law Group is the one to call.

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional legal representation provided by Togut, Segal & Segal LLP during our recent custody case with Celsius Network.
Bryan M. Kotliar and Kyle Ortiz, the lawyers overseeing our case, demonstrated utmost professionalism and dedication. Their strategic approach and effective communication, including numerous Zoom meetings and timely update emails, greatly contributed to the successful resolution of our case. I especially appreciate their willingness to address unique issues by accepting individual phone consultations.
The court's decision in favor of our case and the subsequent award of our custody assets have brought considerable relief. Despite the financial challenges associated with the bankruptcy process, the support and expertise provided by Togut, Segal & Segal LLP significantly eased the burden.
I couldn't be happier with the level of service and communication throughout this challenging period. Please extend my gratitude to Bryan M. Kotliar and Kyle Ortiz for their outstanding efforts.

Whenever you have any kind of issue with your employer, there is such a power imbalance that you absolutely need to have someone like Randi on your side. From our very first consultation, I could tell that I had found the perfect person to represent me, and I credit her with giving me the courage and confidence to forge ahead.
Randi is smart and strategic, an excellent communicator, and a zealous advocate who will persevere until you get the results that you want. Most importantly, she is a compassionate human being who really listens and cares. I cannot say enough good things about her. Highly recommended!

Randi was fantastic. From the moment she responded to my initial inquiry (which was incredibly quick) to the very end she was exactly what you want in an attorney. She has a knack for advising, while keeping you levelheaded and calm, and strategizing in a way that gives you a real sense of navigating situations that are complicated and stressful. I have now recommended her to multiple people and will continue to do so. Her legal acumen helped me through an incredibly tough employment situation, and I am extremely grateful to have had her as my attorney.

She fought for justice for my daughter like she would for her own family member, for that we are eternally grateful.

What a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Do for You
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.
When Should I Hire a Medical Malpractice Lawyer?
Hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is essential if you’ve been seriously injured due to the negligence of a healthcare provider or institution. Situations where you should seek legal representation include:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: If a doctor fails to diagnose or delays diagnosing a medical condition, leading to harm or progression of the illness.
- Surgical errors: Harm resulting from surgical mistakes such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments inside the body, or performing unnecessary procedures.
- Medication errors: Injuries caused by prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, or mistakes made by pharmacists in dispensing drugs.
- Birth injuries: Injuries to a newborn due to medical negligence during labor and delivery, such as failing to perform a timely C-section or improper use of delivery instruments.
- Anesthesia errors: Complications arising from improperly administered anesthesia, which can lead to serious injury or death.
- Inadequate follow-up or aftercare: Suffering due to lack of proper monitoring or care after a medical procedure, leading to complications.
- Hospital or nursing home negligence: Harm caused by the negligence of hospital staff, nurses, or administrators who failed to provide adequate care.
Medical malpractice cases are complex, and hiring a lawyer early can help ensure your rights are protected and your case is handled effectively.
What Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Do?
A medical malpractice lawyer provides various legal services to help injured patients hold negligent healthcare providers accountable. Their responsibilities include:
- Evaluating your case: Reviewing medical records and consulting with experts to determine if you have a viable claim based on the standard of care and harm suffered.
- Filing a lawsuit: Initiating legal action by filing a complaint against the responsible parties in the appropriate court.
- Gathering evidence: Collecting medical records, expert testimonies, and other relevant evidence to build a strong case.
- Negotiating with insurance companies: Working to secure a fair settlement that compensates you for your injuries without the need for a trial.
- Litigating in court: Representing you during trial proceedings if a settlement cannot be reached, presenting evidence and arguing your case.
- Calculating damages: Assessing the full extent of your losses, including medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
- Handling expert testimony: Coordinating with medical experts who can testify on how the standard of care was breached and how it led to your injuries.
How Are Medical Malpractice Lawyers Paid?
Most medical malpractice lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if they recover compensation for you. Key aspects of this payment structure include:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer's fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the settlement or award.
- 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.
How Much Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee model. General estimates include:
- Contingency fee: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total recovery amount.
- Case expenses: Additional costs such as expert witness fees and court expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.
Ensure you receive a clear explanation of all potential fees and expenses before proceeding with your case.
Top Questions to Ask a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Before hiring a medical malpractice lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?
Confirm the lawyer has a successful track record with similar cases. -
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. -
Have you worked with expert witnesses?
Verify the lawyer's experience in collaborating with medical experts essential for your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association for their license and any disciplinary actions.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in medical malpractice and a history of successful 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:
- Medical records: All documents related to your treatment and injury.
- Evidence of harm: Photos, medical bills, and records of lost wages.
- Communication records: Any correspondence with healthcare providers or institutions.
- List of healthcare providers: Names and contact information of all involved medical personnel.
- Questions for the lawyer: A prepared list to address all your concerns.
- Timeline of events: A detailed chronology of your medical care and the issues encountered.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
