I’m exceptionally happy working with Jerry Thurswell. I was given straightforward, honest information from a well-informed, seasoned professional like him and also he was able to represent me in the court for a large settlement case that I filed against a friend of mine who betrayed me after running away a huge amount of money. Jerry was very on point and did a great job on my case. I highly recommend him.

I got into a car accident and had injuries. While I was struggling to recover, I simply did not have the capacity to deal with the insurance companies. Once I decided to use the services of Jerry Thurswell, I immediately felt at ease. He gave me all the information on how we would proceed with my case, put me in contact with the doctors that I needed for my recovery and handled everything with the insurance companies. I ended up getting all my bills covered and feeling like I was really taken care of during a time when I needed it. I would definitely recommend Jerry Thurswell to everyone.

Over 40 years ago, Mr. Paskel represented my mother and I when we were injured by a drunk driver. His focus, kindness and professionalism left an unforgettable impression on me. Since then, whenever I need a question answered or legal representation, Mr. Clifford Paskel is the only one I call. He spends time with me to answer all of my questions and makes sure I understand everything before the meeting ends. He demonstrates the highest level of preparation, commitment, integrity, patience and professionalism. His staff is professional, compassionate and thorough, while making me feel like I am their only client.

Alyssa came highly recommended to me by a friend, and now I can’t recommend her enough! She handled my case with so much care and compassion during one of the most difficult times of my life. While I was in the hospital recovering from my motorcycle accident, Alyssa made sure I didn’t have to worry about dealing with the insurance companies. She took all of that stress off my plate so I could focus on healing. Alyssa is like the perfect mix of a caring friend and a tough advocate. She genuinely listened to my concerns, kept me informed every step of the way, and always made me feel like my recovery was her top priority. And if you’ve been in a motorcycle accident, be ready for her "mom lecture" about staying off bikes. It’s lighthearted but heartfelt and shows just how much she truly cares about your well-being. If you’re looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, hardworking, and treats you like family, Alyssa is the one you want on your side. Thank you, Alyssa, for taking on my case. My family and I are truly grateful for your hard work and dedication.

He was extremely respectful and caring the years it took to fight (Major slow down within the court system due to Covid). If he didn’t answer my call, he always promptly called me back. He answered all my questions and concerns EVERY TIME I asked. I was kept in the loop and always knew what was happening.

I was referred to Matt Curtis from an attorney's office in my city. From the first telephone conversation with Matt and his team I felt confident I didn't need to look any further for an attorney. Matt Curtis was the correct person for the medical malpractice case for my husband's death. My decision was confirmed every step of the way that I had indeed been referred to the best lawyer I could possibly have hoped for. I know for sure he would have had my husbands stamp of approval. Matt is extremely dedicated to his clients and their best interest. He is down to earth, friendly, compassionate, easy to work with and a fighter for his clients. Whenever I needed to talk to him he always asked about how I was doing before he got down to business. He saw and treated me as a person and not just a case file. He stayed on top of my case, kept progress moving forward and kept me informed every step of the way. Matt worked hard to get justice for my husband. He responds to emails and telephone calls in a very timely manner. He was there for me! He is extremely knowledgeable about the law he practices. Venturing into a medical malpractice case was a daunting task. Matt made it manageable. His staff is incredible. They all hold themselves to high standards. Beyond the outstanding knowledge and professionalism, I appreciated his down to earth friendly approach. I always felt like I was talking to a friend rather than an attorney. You want the best? Hire Matt Curtis. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Matthew Curtis was recommended to me and after the initial consultation with him, I knew that I didn’t need to look any further for an attorney. I would like to say my case was as easy as pulling a rabbit out of a hat, but on the contrary, I had a very difficult case. Matt believed in me for the start and worked very hard to get a judgement that far exceeded my expectations. He explained everything to me from start to finish and if I had a question, he responded immediately - Matt is the consummate professional. As I was leaving the building after my deposition, I bumped into the court reporter who took my statement and she stated, “you have a great attorney.” Although, I knew that Matt Curtis was an amazing attorney, it was nice to get confirmation from a court reporter working with hundreds of attorneys, that I did in fact have the best attorney. Also, I thankful for the staff at Somers Schwartz and their assistance with my case. Thank you Matt Curtis for everything.

Unable to pay my taxes for several years, with fines and penalties steadily mounting, I was terrified for my future. Searching the internet for help I came upon dozens of firms who claimed they could assist me with the IRS, but I knew picking the wrong company could cause me further problems. One of the best decisions I ever made was to choose Stephen Weisberg and the W Tax Group to aid me in what looked like a hopeless dilemma. From the very first phone call I was calmed and assured that they could help me. There is comfort in dealing with people who are qualified and excel at what they do. Everyone I spoke with at W Tax Group, the staff, the accountants, the attorneys, and especially Stephen Weisberg, comforted me, not just with their expertise, but with their kind words and positive attitudes. And they did exactly what they claimed they could do. I no longer worry when a stranger knocks on my door or I get a phone call from a number I don't recognize. I don't hold my breath any more when I check my bank account praying that my meager funds haven't been seized. They battled for me and won, and I will be forever grateful. To anyone who has a problem with the IRS, who feels alone, who wants to be free from the anxiety, anguish and confusion that come from dealing with them and from owing increasingly large sums of money, I highly recommend Stephen Weisberg and the W Tax Group. Relief feels good.

I have years of experience with the attorneys and staff at Sommers Schwartz. Over that time, I have referred a number of people to attorneys at Sommers Schwartz. These referrals include friends and family, who I would trust to only Sommers Schwartz. Whenever I refer someone to attorney Matt Turner and his team at Sommers Schwartz, I tell them with confidence that they will diligently review their matter and tell them if they have a case. If they do not have a case, they explain exactly why they do not. Referrals that have become clients have had positive experiences. Referrals that did not have actionable cases were given a thorough explanation. Those referrals have told me that this allowed them get some closure. I can recommend them to you because I trust them to friends and family.

  • No upfront costs: You do not pay any legal fees unless the lawyer successfully recovers compensation on your behalf.
