Ms. Jessica keister is a fantastic attorney! She cares so much about her clients ! She helped me with my divorce and was both professional and empathetic. She kept me informed every step of the way through the process . Not only was she supportive, but she took a lot of time to explain those things I didn't completely understand. Her advice was on point and led to a good outcome for me and my family for which I am grateful. Thank you so much Ms. Jessica keister. I highly recommend her !

Ms. Mukesh is an outstanding attorney. She handled my divorce case and did a great job. She has a small practice and because of that she is able to provide personal attention to all the details of the case. She is very knowledgeable and explains the ins and outs of the case. She always looks for the best interest of her client and tries her best to bring the case to an expeditious and successful closure instead of dragging it along.
She is very flexible with her schedule and always does her best to make herself available to meet in person and returns phone calls/emails in a very timely manner.

My attorney Shavina Mukesh was very patient and kind. She went out of her way in trying to settle my divorce out of court in which she was successful. Which saved me money and time and most importantly I was mentally relieved. My divorce process was mentally draining but Mrs. Mukesh was always there to hear me out. I was very pleased with her services and would recommend anyone going through a similar experience to hire her as your attorney. She will make the process as smooth as possible.

Jonathan Scott Smith is the most professional and knowledgeable attorney I have ever met. After a few months of research, I drove almost an hour to ask him to take a case previously held by another attorney. I knew after our first meeting he was the only person that I would trust going forward. The case was capped by my coverage and full of complications. Not only did he take my case, but he also won my case! He counseled me throughout, made it very convenient, fought for me no matter what came our way, even during Covid, and stood his ground. I was consistently kept in the loop of information and prepared for deposition and settlement. He was always 10 steps ahead and prepared for everything, even the unexpected which did arise. His confidence and knowledge gave me confidence when speaking in settlement. Linda in the office is amazing! She kept me informed and answered my questions, along with making me feel better on even my worst and most painful days. I could never say enough about how amazing the Jonathan Scott Smith law team are and I recommend them to everyone. They gave my family and I part of our life back!

I was a victim of a slip and trip accident at a prominent casino. 4 other firms turned down my case. Mr. Smith was my last chance. I am glad I made the call to him when I did. He fully explained that cases like this are a hard win, because the property has to accept liability. He took on my case and was diligent with acquiring all document from my medical providers. This was a long case held up by my very own medical providers, but Mr. Smith persevered and kept after what was needed. All of this while he experienced office staff changes, various paralegals errors combined with a strong caseload of his own. The fruit of the tree came to pass, he secured me a settlement that exceeded my minimum acceptable settlement.... SIGNIFICANTLY.. exceeded. I would recommend this firm and Johnathan Smith to anyone who feels they need a real advocate and someone who will do the work for you.

Valerie Portner and her office exceeded my expectations. They were straight forward with me and handled my car accident claim as if it was their own. Staff was incredible helpful in all aspects of my case. Communication was fantastic. The end result brought closure to an unexpected and rather difficult period in my life. They genuinely seemed to care. I have recommended this group to all my family and friends. If you need an attorney for your car accident or personal injury, this is the office that you want.

I was seriously injured in a severe car accident last September. Her firm met with me and went above and beyond in helping me through the process, referring me to some outstanding specialists, handling my medical bills and handling all of the communications with the insurance companies. They even handled the paperwork to close out my auto loan on my car which was totaled in the accident. I'm confident that they wil get the maximum settlement for my family. Great firm, I would recommend them to anyone.

Mr. Wood was consistently responsive and attentive to my specific legal needs. Mr. Wood was empathetic during my initial consultation and provided a mitigation strategy to implement immediately. The value of his strategy was proven with my favorable outcome. Mr. Wood was clear in setting expectations and consistent in meeting them. Mr. Wood's knowledge and attention to detail were surpassed only by the level of personal service provided. I personally recommend Mr. Matthew L. Wood for any and all legal needs.

Rand represented me for custody modification I initiated at behest of my daughter. Her request was not without merit. Her mother was reported to Child Protective Services (CPS) by per pediatrician for gross physical abuse, when she was five. Her elementary, middle school, & high school counselors raised concerns regarding suicidal thoughts; in high school she experienced two severe crises. Six months after initiating modification, after discussions with her court-appointed attorney and social worker, my daughter indicated to me she no longer wanted to leave her mother. I duly directed my attorney to withdraw modification. This is what occurred next 18 months afterwards.
On multiple occasions, during private meetings, Rand assumed theatrically juvenile conspiratorial demeanor, stating special relationships with court officials, calling them with me present, attempting to obtain special case scheduling, judge assignment, etc, favoring my case; frequently discussed relationships with court judges; rarely engaging substantive, knowledgeable legal analysis. Over three pre-hearing conferences, lasting multiple hours each billable time, Rand was mute, neither offering constructive negotiation terms nor steering discussion to constructive basis in response to opposing attorney’s wild allegations. After conferences concluded, Rand expressed theatrical outrage and frustration with opposing attorney conduct.
In third conference, during private discussion, Rand accused me of launching numerous lawsuits as basis for current lengthy negotiations. Unclear how Rand arrived at his opinion. Over 11-year period, ex-wife filed: three protective orders, all of which were denied, dismissed, or withdrawn; numerous interim motions during pendente lite & divorce trials alleging various medical issues, all of which withdrawn after contradicting medical evidence; awarded generous custody & child support, only to lose all after appealing demanding more; pursued 5 back-to-back lawsuits starting two weeks after divorce ruling, all dismissed by summary judgement or denied. Pursued 7 new cases seeking sole custody & child support, all withdrawn, dismissed, or denied; twice sanctioned by Court to pay attorney fees for frivolous litigation. Rand never introduced to court her extensive litigation history; CPS history; violent confrontation with daughter’s psychologist; contempt for failing to pay child support; or court frequently finding her statements not credible. Rand should have known this history: he represented me for most of it.
At final hearing, Rand and opposing attorney held private conference with judge in chamber. After nearly three hours, attorneys and judge returned, and judge granted my request submitted 18 months previously. No open hearing, no open discussion or arguments. Never experienced such a stunt in 15 years litigation involving far more technical legal issues. After court adjourned, Rand abruptly indicated urgent need to leave, assuming theatrically juvenile demeanor and stating it was “dangerous” to remain.
Two years later, I received obvious phishing email from Rand, followed soon after by second email from him apologizing and stating he had been hacked. The apology email remarkably included private email addresses of 424 business members; local, state, and federal government officials; court officials; and private individuals.
Rand’s demeanor, though frequently theatrical with respect to describing opposing attorneys, was always courteous and polished towards me – something that fooled me for some time until his last case representing me, when his antics finally became obvious.
Rand’s juvenile focus on impressions over substance, indiligence, credulous acceptance of opposing attorney statements, willful ignorance, & extreme profiteering greatly wasted time and money far more productively applied to daughter’s therapy and college education.

I should've listened to my friends and family when they told me to get a lawyer after my accident- it would've saved me so much unnecessary stress from the get-go. I foolishly thought I could navigate everything myself until the insurance adjuster tried to screw me over with my settlement, as my injuries were more extensive than I had initially thought, and I ended up back in the ER along with needing PT and further tests. With this being my first real accident, I didn't realize how deceiving adjusters can be. My friend recommended Mr. Smith, as she also had a seamless experience years ago. This remains true today. Rachel was so kind when I first called, and I immediately felt more at ease, then Mr. Smith called me the next business day and walked me through everything. He was so patient, and I appreciate that he is straight forward but never rude. I was sure I had no case, thinking I signed the settlement, and it had been ~ two weeks of going back and forth with the adjuster. Note- MD residents- you have up to 60 days to revoke a statement if you didn't have legal representation, even if you signed a settlement. If the adjuster sends you money via direct deposit, it's still considered you cashing the money despite you not having touched it at all- and adjusters will not tell you this and try to close out the case asap. Turned out, I didn't even sign anything anyway. I think the whole process ended up taking ten months. Mr. Smith ensured that I got the fairest settlement possible, and I still can't believe how much I was initially willing to settle for. This was an eye opener. I was always kept in the loop of what was going on- it was never too much or too little, him and his team responded quickly and were very organized. Thanks for everything, Mr. Smith and Ms. Rachel!

I went through a very difficult time as my face was completely burnt after getting a chemical peel from a spa and due to their carelessness. When I went back to the spa to let them know what had happened to me, they refused to help me by any means. I was very depressed and anti-social and personally I didn't think anyone could help me at that time. I reached out to this law farm and everyone here is so professional. My attorney "Jonathan" went above and beyond to make sure I get the medical care that was needed for me at that time. He followed up with me on every single detail and worked so hard on my case that I got a pretty decent amount (more than what I had expected). Today my face is all healed up as well (thank God) and I couldn't thank Mr. Jonathan enough for all his hard work in getting me the justice and help needed at that time.

Carol was the first lawyer I ever hired. She was truly interested in my case and compassionate. Making the decision to divorce someone you still care about is hard enough, and not knowing what to expect compounds the situation. When I would get tearful, Carol was very support and inquired as to why I was emotional and would talk with me about why I wanted the divorce in the first place which helped me stay focused and keep my wits about me. She made the process of my divorce easy. I was glad to have her by my side. Thank you, Carol!

Unfortunately, my recent session with Ms. Tracy was less than satisfactory. While I appreciate the effort to provide guidance, the advice given was unhelpful and did not address my concerns effectively. The session was also disrupted by a delay in starting and an interruption midway, which further hindered the flow of our conversation.
Moreover, I felt that my concerns were not fully understood or taken seriously. Despite informing Ms. Tracy at the beginning of the session that I have a temporary protection order, this crucial detail seemed to be overlooked, leading to unnecessary surprise when it was mentioned later. Additionally, despite my clear statement that I have sole custody, I was questioned about my custody situation. This left me feeling defensive and uncertain about whether I had made the right decisions to protect my child.
What is most concerning is that I have not heard anything back from Ms. Tracy regarding these issues. It appears that she is collecting funds without providing accurate or helpful information. Given the lack of response and the overall unsatisfactory experience, I am requesting a refund for this session, as it did not meet my expectations or provide the level of professional

Had an excellent and professional experience with this law firm. We went there to redo our will and Mr. McDonald explained the trust process to us and redid our will in that form. He was very organized and professional and explained in detail what he was doing. At the end of the process, he sent us a detail next steps letter to ensure that our JRLT was properly acknowledged. He has a pleasant and welcoming manner and did not make us feel confused as neither one of us are lawyers and needed explanations for the process. We would use the services of his firm again.

Mr. Schmieler carefully listened to the facts during our consultation and agreed to take my case. As the case progressed, Mr. Schmieler remained steadfastly focused on the evidence and how it intersected with the law. He not only reviewed documents I provided, but also conducted his own research into previous cases regarding the situation and formulated a comprehensive perspective based on the other party’s history. His persistent and careful consideration of the entire situation reassured me that our case was solid. Although we haven’t yet finished at this point, he managed my expectations to the length of time it would take to resolve. His approach to information gathering and client relations speak to his experience. I am also impressed by his team, all of which are knowledgeable, friendly, responsive, and professional. I intend to retain him for all future issues.

Through her hard work and persistence, my son was fully compensated for his injuries and property loss. Our calls were ALWAYS returned promptly, with any questions answered in a timely manner. As the case progressed, Brenda continually kept us abreast of any new or changing details. I would HIGHLY recommend her services as she has proven to be a skilled attorney who is both personable and professional.

Brenda did an excellent job helping me through one of the most challenging times. Her calm demeanor and ability to see the bigger picture was crucial for the success of my case. We were able to resolve things in just one meeting with a mediator because of the great work Brenda accomplished. I am grateful that I had her with me throughout this process.

Attorney Furman offers good legal representation, as she has a plethora of experiences dealing with varying factors. We did our best to present our case, but sometimes external factors are too great to overcome, regardless, I feel that my views were articulated properly. Sometimes it may feel like you have fallen to the wayside leading up to the trial, but Attorney Furman will always respond to a call, text, or email as soon as she can. Overall, I’m happy with the representation and will reach out for any future issues.

Mr. Nalli is experienced and knows what he's doing but he lacks communication skills and doesn't communicate with his clients or their families! He will just let you sitting in jail and not keep you updated with what is going on even if nothing is going on he still should atleast contact his client a couple times a month. Especially if they have no court dates set.. I think that is very disrespectful to just leave someone sitting in jail without contacting them at all! He does put up a fight but he doesn't fight hard enough!

Sam represented me regarding two Peace Orders (which really shouldn't have been placed I'm the first place).
I hired him because I wanted to make sure I could see my daughter ASAP. Sam said not to worry and he was absolutely right.
He's very even keel and knowledgeable, communicates well, and made me feel heard as a client.
Can't recommend him highly enough! Seeing my daighter tomorrow! Thanks Sam!!!

They are such liars and so unprofessional in their handling of cases I can't even give them one star. They dragged my case out for a year and ruined everything with their lies. I hope there will never be another victim like me.

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.
Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.
When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:
- Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
- Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
- Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
- Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
- Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
- Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:
- Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
- Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
- Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
- File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
- Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
- Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.
How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
- Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
- No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.
Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:
- Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
- Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.
While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.
Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer
Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
How long will my case take?
While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.
How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
- Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
- Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
- Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:
- Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
- Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
- Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
- Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
- Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.
By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
