John is an exceptional attorney who completely exceeded all of my expectations. He is very personable and was attentive to all of my emails, questions and concerns. He fought diligently for me and gave me the absolute best outcome possible in a court room. At no point did I feel like just another client. I had a fantastic experience with John and he would hands down be the very first attorney that I would recommend to anyone seeking counsel.

David Marks and team got the job done for me. He and the team explained things and answered all my questions getting through this legal process. He handled everything professionally in a very friendly manner. It was a long process dealing with the insurance companies, but David and his team were able to reach a settlement for me. I was very happy with how everything was handled and the eventual outcome.

David and his team were wonderful. They handled my case with care and grace and were incredibly supportive and thoughtful throughout. The case itself did take a little longer that I thought, but they explained each step of the process and promptly responded to my inquiries as we waited. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the future.

Mr. Robinson is phenomenal! He went above and beyond for me. He was always there when I called or was quick to return my calls throughout the process. He never made me feel left out and took the time to explain anything I was not understanding. Unlike other lawyers I had called, he was very kind, realistic and assured me that he would do everything in his power to help me out. Other lawyers were not very supportive and they did not bother trying to put in effort or find ways to help me. Mr. Robinson on the other hand came up with a game plan and delivered it. Having someone who is willing to do everything in their power to help you will make a huge difference. Don’t bother looking else where. Mr. Robinson is the BEST! THANK YOU!!!!!!

From the free consultation to securing and entering my plea deal, Robinson Law have been excellent representation every step of the way. During the consultation process, Joshua provided immediate reassurance to both my mother and myself that we did not feel from other firms we contacted, some of which also charged much higher prices. He also furnished me with a list of recommended pre-court tasks to help secure a better outcome. On court day, despite facing significant penalties that included jail time, in only minutes Mr. Robinson was able to secure a very favorable outcome that kept me out of jail and minimized the other penalties. Mr. Robinson and his team provided me with professional, capable, and well priced representation; I always felt like I was in good hands. I would not hesitate to hire them again should I need legal representation in the future, and I would highly recommend their services to anyone else in need of legal representation.

They are just the best. Their lawyers are professionals who pay attention to details and give listening ears to your case. After checking out and talking to a bunch of lawyers, I finally ended up with them because I felt relieved after a brief interview and at the end I had a positive turn out for my case. They are very effective and efficient and I will recommend them to anyone without thinking otherwise. I’m very happy I have a clean record thanks to Griffits.

Demetry has represented me on two different occasions over the years. The first was for a personal injury that I sustained from an auto accident in 2010, and the second involved a DUI charge in 2023.
In both cases Demetry worked tirelessly, he was relentless in his devotion to ensuring that his client received the best possible outcome. I could not be happier with the result from both cases. Additionally, his office staff and his paralegal “Julie” are topnotch, they are awesome and will take care of anything that you may need.
Demetry has been and will forever be my Attorney.

Mr. Trichilo went above and beyond to help my husband and myself with his very challenging case. When we first contacted Mr. Trichilo my husbands case had been denied by the insurance company and he was able to have a Full Commission reverse the ruling. Because of that My husband received a substantial lump sum payment and MSA approved annuity to make sure all future medical needs are taken care of. Because of my husbands very serious injuries I was the main contact with Mr. Trichilo and He helped me so very much and made me feel like everything would be ok and he told me to take care of myself and my husband and he would take care of everything else. We are very thankful for everything he did for us!

This was our first case and involvement with any attorney and we couldn’t be more pleased with our overall experience and outcome.
We called and interviewed multiple attorneys when first deciding to hire a lawyer. Mr. Trichilo was the only one that told us what to expect and sent us the needed forms and engagement letter. He even followed up and asked if he could answer any questions.
Mr. Trichilo appears to be a gentle and soft spoken man when you first meet him. When it came time to go toe-to-toe with the big insurance company, we felt that we had the bigger dog in the fight! He was professional, organized and thorough in every aspect of our Workers Comp case. He managed our expectations and in the end we received more than we ever expected.
If you need an attorney, look no further and give Benjamin Trichilo a call.

Ashley C Dean is an exceptional attorney. He is knowledgeable and might I add a devoted attorney who will secure his patient in a diligent and truthful environment. The verdict of my case was dismissed all due to the fact Mr. Dean represented me. The outcome of my case exceeded my expectations. He is immensely caring for his clients and that fact shows when and if you decide to hire him. You will not be disappointed. To hire him to represent me in my case was such a blessing and he made the whole process effortless for me. I deeply appreciate all the hard work he has done for me and if I were to ever need an attorney again, I can count on him.

I would like to share the experience that I had after doing a Google search for Workman's Compensation Lawyers in Arlington, VA. There were many attorneys listed all over Northern Virginia and even into Richmond, VA. After researching websites and reviews of several attorneys, Charles O'Donnell was the attorney that impressed me the most. I have multiple existing Workman's Compensation against Amazon Logistics which I have been handling by myself primarily because when I made calls to attorneys 3-4 months ago for help, not one would give any assistance. Their legal assistants listened but at the end of the day, my case was a little too complicated or they just did not believe thay would prevail if they had taken my case.
I believe most attorneys will give a free consutation, but I truely got much more. In the end, my phone conversation with Mr. O'Donnell lasted one hour and six minutes. Mr. O'Donnell is a great listener and was very thorough in understanding all the complexities of four different accident events that were on record with Virginia Workmans Compensation Commission. Even more important was the information that he shared that related to my accidents that affected both knees. Mr. O'Donnell maybe could have taken my case (?) but declined as I already had a working settlement on
the table that I had negotiated but had second thoughts about.
From my experience today talking with Mr. O'Donnell, I would highly recommend that you give him a call if you have a need for an attorney in Northern Virginia or DC Metro area. I like people that forget about themselves and think well about their clients. That person is Charles O'Donnell and I truely believe he will represent your interests as good as any attorney in our area.

The accident that I had was horrible and it changes my life completely. I was here in Virginia alone with no family members. When Mr. O'Donnell and his staff member came to see me in the hospital I was able to see how they work and that they care about their clients. With his help and his staff I did not feel alone anymore. They fought for me and did everything they could to get me the treatment I needed and to be able to walk out of this accident with something to start a new life. I though my life was over when I had my accident but Mr. O'Donnell and his staff should me that It was not and that there was many things I can do after the accident. He saved my life. He is a very honest and caring attorney that will do all in his power to makes things right and to fight for his client's rights. He did an amazing job for me and I am grateful that found him. I appreciate all the hard work he did for me.

He is an amazing Lawyer with amazing staff as well. Words are not enough to describe how Tom in handling our case for a wrongful death of our son. He is the best lawyer out there! He kept us in the loop from the start to finish. Explains all the things we needed to know and so easy to communicate with. He responds with all our inquiry right away. He lightened our load in some way so to speak by not stressing us out throughout the process but was working hard for our case to be done in a way we will not be stressed, but him working dedicatedly. Only few like him that shows genuine concern and dedication not just to our case but to us and our family. Very professional and with excellent work ethics. Very knowledgeable and smart. My two young daughters like him a lot that they asked us to give him something to remember them all the time , a build the bear that they dressed up just like him. Tom valued that gift from our daughters.

I met and retained Mr. Smith in early 2009 to represent me in a medical malpractice claim. That claim was subsequently settled through mediation in early 2011. It is difficult to put into words how appreciative I was having Mr. Smith as my attorney. He was extremely knowledgeable (not only regarding legal issues, but also in understanding the multiple medical issues I was having), highly professional at all times, was able to explain every step of the process to me so I (as a non-attorney) understood what was being done from start to finish, and was just an all-around compassionate and highly competent professional.

Even though I only spoke with him for 15 minutes, he took the time to listen to me and gave me options.

Alex Laufer took my case and represented me throughout a long and challenging insurance settlement following a vehicle accident that caused me irreparable injury and chronic pain. He worked the case with determination and resourceful strategy and obtained a settlement that was fair to all parties. Most important to me, he obtained that result with unquestionable integrity, and without causing animosity or ill will with the insurance companies and parties involved. When the case was concluded, everyone walked away from the experience with the sense that it was a routine business transaction. If I ever need a lawyer again, I will not hesitate to call Alex or his law firm for help.

Mr. Laufar not only approached the case as requested, he also introduced other variables that resulted in a larger award. He explained parts of the law that we were not aware of at the time. Had we gone to Mr. Laufar 6 months earlier, we would have had a much larger award than obtained at the end of the case. If any follow-up work is required, we will definitely go back to Mr. Laufar and we do recommend him for any legal action.

Unfortunately, while we were traveling from Pennsylvania to Virginia for vacation, my family and I were involved in a serious crash with a dump trunk. We suddenly found ourselves in need of legal assistance, and we were lost as to what to do since we were located in Pennsylvania and the case needed to be litigated in Virginia. So, we went in search of attorneys who would be able to help. While searching through a long list of candidates and their qualifications we came across a listing for Donna Miller Rostant. Not only was Donna an attorney but she also holds a Master’s Degree in Nursing with a specialty in women’s health. This was exactly what I was looking for due to the nature of my injuries. I needed an advocate that would understand what I was going through and also be able to provide the support necessary for this case. Not only did I find that advocate in Donna, but I could not have asked for a better team to handle my case than Donna and Ann. Donna and Ann went the extra mile to make sure that I clearly understood what was going on, I never felt like there were miles between us and they made communicating an ease. When traveling was necessary, they were more than accommodating to my schedule. Donna and Ann answered all of my questions expertly and explained things so I could understand them, even if I asked them more than once, they always offered me sound advice, and I never felt like I was an imposition. They made me feel at ease, and they made sure that I was properly prepared for my deposition and ultimately my trial. Not only did my trial end successfully, but my other family members also had favorable settlements thanks to Donna and Ann. Most importantly though, throughout this entire process, I always felt that Donna and Ann cared about my family and me and we still keep in touch.

If you should find yourself needing expert, compassionate legal support for medical malpractice, call Ms. Rostant. After experiencing medical complications and permanent damage due to a provider’s errors, I contacted Ms. Rostant for help in evaluating my situation. Donna is approachable, welcomes your concerns and questions, and has a long history of successful results. Donna treated me with professional courtesy as well as a balance of legal explanations and lay person translations ensuring that I clearly understood the situation, my options, her recommendations, and the possible results for a variety of scenarios as we moved forward. I provided needed medical records, participated in interviews, created timelines, and assisted in documenting the impact the medical malpractice in my personal and professional life. I was supported, informed, and guided through the complex legal process.
As a lay person, the medical and legal thresholds and nuances were initially beyond my understanding. At a time when I was enduring multiple surgeries, experiencing pain and taking time from my profession for recoveries, Donna patiently walked me through the maze with a focus on our mutually decided best outcome. When I was exhausted and struggling, Donna’s professional support accommodated my needs and supported me during this very difficult time. I highly recommend Donna Rostant.

I'm sorry to say that, even though I was married in the Catholic Church, my wife divorced me in March of this year, 2019. It was traumatic of course but Sharon Lieblich not only did a great job as a lawyer, but as a human being. I truly grew to love her. She was recommended by my family's lawyer in NYC, and though she was more expensive than other lawyers in Virginia, she probably saved me half a million bucks. You can't beat Harvard lawyers!

I really do wish that I had done my research and gone to Mr.Kearney from the beginning. The first lawyer that I hired for my car accident was from a big name company in the area and a friend of mine who used to work for him recommended him so I thought what could go wrong. Practically everything from not getting back with me for two months, to asking me to resend paperwork that I had already sent in, to telling me that he doesn't believe that I would be getting much out of this case almost a year later! Changing over to Mr.James Kearney was a decision I made based off of the reviews on this site as well as his background info particularly the part related to him having worked on the side of the insurance company so he knew how they thought. If I had a question I think that the longest it took for him to get back with me was the days end but it was usually an immediate phone call or email. I also didn't feel as if I needed to constantly contact him as he kept me in the loop with my case every step of the way. I learned more about my case with him than I ever did with the previous lawyer. And I absolutely love how you get him directly and not a secretary that you hoped passed on the message to him. Since he doesn't take on more than a certain number of cases at a time he was able to make you feel like you were his only client. I wasn't just another case to him as he was very concerned about my injuries and hopes that I can get back to my profession some day. Regarding the case itself we settled for everything that we asked for! A far cry from the previous attorney saying that I wouldn't get much at all! He fought hard for us and we didn't even have to go to court. The last thing that I want to do is go through another car accident but if I did I know exactly who to call without hesitation and you better believe that I will be giving his info to anyone who might need his expertise. Seriously, if you are still looking for a lawyer or are thinking about changing the one that you have look no further than Mr.James Kearney You will not regret that decision . I love way MR. Kearney
fight in court he is very Aggressive attorney in Fairfax , County and very respectful what he do. I highly recommend MR. James Kearney who ever have serious car accident or wrongful death.

I had the good fortune of being given Ann Jones' name from someone within a state agency about 8 years ago. I contacted her immediately and from that first phone call knew that she was going to be a powerful part of my daughter's "team". She was and continually is there for us whenever I contact her about something that just doesn't seem fair for my child. She is so caring, knowledgeable and will assist in anyway possible. I recommend her to everyone I come in contact with who asks about legal advise. She is strictly out for her clients and make sure they receive what they are entitled. Thanks to her always for being there for us!

I had the good fortune of meeting Ann Jones when I was trying to navigate the difficult and unnerving issues of filing a claim for admission in to the Virginia Birth-Related Neurological Injury Program. Initially she would not accept my son's case but did so after determining that even though it would be the most difficult birth injury case she had represented she knew he had in fact suffered a birth injury. Ann is the most knowledgable and hard working attorney I have ever known. The clients she represents are not just clients. As a result of her dedication and hard work my son was awarded benefits and now has the lifelong promise of the medically necessary care he will need.

I reached out to Ms. Fogarty in regards to my divorce and custody situation. From the moment I sat down with Ms. Fogarty i knew she would be the best option to represent me after i initially consulted with 2 other family lawyers prior to meeting with Kate. I will say my case was extremely complex and emotional and Kate was dealing with my child's Mother being Pro-Se. Kate handled this case with professionalism and care. Her knowledge of family law was outstanding and her way with words in front of judge was extremely impressive. People (like myself) complain about the costs of lawyers however the saying is true "you get what you pay for" Without going into details, the overall outcome was in my favor and as a Father in the state of Virginia my outcome is rare to say the least and its all due to Kate's knowledge of family law. If anyone is searching around for a family lawyer, just stop and contact Kate Fogarty, she will fight for whats right and try to obtain the best possible outcome for you. I highly recommend Kate Fogarty to represent you regarding Custody/Divorce,

I probably had one of the most trying years last year in 2012. Kate was the one saving grace I had when it appeared all the chips were stacked against me in my divorce and other matters with the court. Kate was very diligent and thorough in her representation of me and helped to keep me grounded when the opposing side was being unreasonable, under-handed, abusive, and just flat out lying. Kate was able to peel back the onion piece by piece until the real truth came out and the tables turned for good in my direction. In the end she was able to have my divorce over in 6 months on the nose, she ensured I retained my home, and ultimately kept me from having to pay much more then the original reasonable offer I gave my ex-wife at the start of our Divorce.
Kate is a wonderful attorney and I am just glad she was on my side during this process and not on my ex's. The old saying goes you get what you pay for, well, Kate was worth every penny I spent on her and then some. I would highly recommend anyone in need a good Civil Attorney to consider hiring Kate, you will not be disappointed.

Mr. Horvath is a very detailed attorney- he know case laws by heart- he is very capable and I was very happy with him as my attorney- Like many attorneys out there, he does not accept a case and then turn it over to lower associates to handle.

Contacted Kidwell & Kent to get advice about a landlord/tenant dispute. Described my situation to Justin and asked some basic legal questions about how to proceed with a tenant who refuses to pay rent. Justin gave me clear answers to my questions and helped me understand my legal options and how the legal process plays out.

One of two of the many I called that took the time to call me back. I suppose the others felt like it was not worth their time to respond back after the intake call. Robert personally called me and took the time to discuss the matter. I appreciate someone taking the time. Even though the service of an attorney was not needed, I would use him in the future.

Our auto liability case just settled (March, 2015) and we are happy that our representation was superior and exceeded our expectations. Matt and his boss Steve Frei took our case even though it was a week from the filing due date and while fairly straight-forward, it wasn't particularly big bucks. They both showed excellent judgement as all of their recommendations were spot-on. At all times, they were prepared, discussed our concerns thoroughly, and kept us well informed. At trial he was sharp, well prepared, kept his cool under hostile questioning, and made his arguments effectively. The judge gave us 30% more than the insurance co offered. Although I was initially concerned that he was young, he performed as well as a much more experienced trial attorney. I work closely with many top lawyers for more than two decades and can be fairly critical and meticulous -probably more so than their peers would say- so its no small matter to say I found his performance to be of high quality, competently done and I highly recommend him.

Was dealing with possession of marijuana and possession with intent to distribute. Underage consumption of alcohol and possession of a weapon. Dark time in my life. Took care of my case and was always prepared. Got all of my serious charges dropped and always stayed in touch. Took stress off of my mind and told me to relax. Very confident in the court room. Would definitely recommend to others who are as well in a serious pickle with the law. Thank you Joshi for everything.

Mr. Miller was the ONLY lawyer who correctly explained how much I could possibly get reimbursed for a GEICO Med Pay claim. He was patient and understanding with me, and I was very grateful, especially because I had been misinformed several times by other lawyers who should have known better.

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.
