Parvine is the best! Absolutely, hands down, bar none! I was being railroaded with a criminal matter and a friend referred me to her. She took the time to speak with me constantly and put my mind at ease. I walked away with nothing more than fines and a small probation. It’s all been said and done for a while, but we still talk on a regular basis. She calls just to say hello and just talk with me about anything. I love this woman and how good of a person she is.

I recently had a phone consultation with Ray, and while I typically treat BAR members like I treat Federal Reserve Notes—acknowledge their existence but don’t put too much faith in them—I have to admit, this one didn't immediately trigger my "fraudulent adhesion contract" radar. A rare feat, indeed. To my surprise, Ray was knowledgeable, professional, and didn't try to gaslight me into believing I’m just another helpless soul lost in the maritime fog of presumed liability. He actually listened, provided solid insights, and—brace yourself—spoke in a way that didn’t require me to decode legalese like I’m deciphering an IRS tax form while blindfolded. Now, am I ready to swear an oath of allegiance to the BAR? Absolutely not! But did this consultation help ease my situation and clarify some key points? Yes. He may not have issued me a Letter of Marque, but at least he didn’t try to drag me back onto the pirate ship. For those navigating the choppy waters of the legal system while trying to remain in the private, this attorney might just be a safe port… or at least a dry dock that doesn’t come with an automatic lien. Would I recommend them? Let’s just say, if you ever find yourself in a legal pickle and don’t have time to hit them with an affidavit first, they might be worth a call. Just make sure you’re not unwittingly entering into a contract—because, as we know, silence can sometimes be construed as consent. -- Sincerely, but not legally binding, nor to be misconstrued as consent to any jurisdiction outside my own. Operating strictly on the land, unencumbered by fraudulent adhesion contracts, declining all offers of joinder (unless they come with a hefty payout, a zero-liability clause, and a notarized apology from the BAR). Refusing to board any Pirate Ship, lest I be mistaken for lost cargo or an involuntary surety in yet another maritime scheme. Navigating only by the true law of the land—Common Law—where my word holds more weight than a Federal Reserve Note post-1933. With all due respect (which, as we know, is contractually undefined, thus measured solely by my own good grace), Unincorporated, Unencumbered, and Unbothered—Keeper of My Own Seal and Governor of My Own Affairs. In honor of the Living Man/Woman, free from legalese, BAR sorcery, and admiralty entrapments— May your motions be granted, your contracts be voidable, and your standing be always Sui Juris. May your notices be unrebutted, your affidavits unchallenged, and your fee schedules enforced at the highest commercial rate. May every attempt at entrapment be met with a swift and merciless estoppel, and may all claims against you be dismissed with prejudice. Signed in good faith, but never in commerce, By My Own Hand and Authority, Standing as the Chief Executor, Attorney-in-Fact Over the ALL CAPS Estate, Duly Noticed and Recorded, Perpetually Out of Reach of Any Fraudulent Presumptions. Govern yourself accordingly.

I thought my attorneys Bobby Raitt and Alison Duffy were easy to get along with. What I really liked about them was that when I called with a question, they would call me back the same day. They worked as a team to help me with whatever I needed. They were just prompt with the information I needed and easy to work with. I was in a car accident, so they took care of all of the medical bills that kept getting sent to me. I didn't have to deal with the insurance companies anymore, because they took care of my PIP lawsuit and made sure I got all of my no fault benefits. I didn't have to deal with anything because I knew they were on the ball. Bobby and Alison also called me with updates, so I knew things were always moving toward a timely settlement. They were both very professional and great lawyers. I would definitely refer them to anyone that I know who gets into an auto accident.

I was in a motor vehicle accident and after getting cited for the accident, I called Michigan Auto Law. I wanted the responsible party to be responsible. Everything from my initial talk with Jeff Bussell, who began my case, to my attorneys Bobby Raitt and Alison Duffy, who litigated has been excellent. They had very good communication, kept me in the loop and made me feel very important. I know they have other clients, but I never felt like they were rushed when talking to me or they were punching the clock. Bobby and Alison were always there for me, and very helpful in guiding me through each step of the process. I'm extremely happy with the way they resolved the case – and the steps they took in litigation, because they wouldn't take the initial low offer. They had my best interest in mind every step of the way.

My lawyers were very helpful. I had a team of two: Bob Raitt and Alison Duffy. They took care of everything and knew exactly what they were doing. I could tell they were very experienced and knowledgeable about the auto accident laws in Michigan, so I didn't have to worry about my case. The communication was rapid. If I had questions, they would answer right away and someone was always there to talk with me. They make you feel like you're important, which was important to me. If you want an easy, experienced, knowledgeable lawyer, come to Michigan Auto Law and they will help with any situation you have.

I can't speak highly enough of my experience with Marco. My wife and I had a difficult decision to make regarding a new teaching career for her and had some questions that neeed answers. Marco was able to give us the precise advise that bought us time to more thoroughly look at our options. He also followed up with us a week later to see if we had anymore questions. I'd recommend him to anyone.

A few years ago I contacted Ms. Djordjeski as a recommendation from a friend for some house leasing issues I was having. She was hired by my husband and I to review our lease and help settle some disputes between us and our landlord at the time. She was super educated, eloquent and down to business. Ms. Djordjeski reviewed our information in a timely manner and handled our case, no matter how minor, with diligence for the law. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Marcus is a great young man and excellent attorney. My husband is 53 and I am still working at 49. Well my husband began having medical problems including several heart attacks in the past 2 years. He couldnt work and we were living off my part time wages. I couldnt believe he was denied benefits. We called Sam Bernstein, and eventually Marcus became our attorney. He was upfront, and he was always there to answer our questions. Even our dumb questions. At the hearing we learned that he had written several briefs to the judge and pushed to have the judge make a favorable decision for us. We were so suprised when the hearing only took 4 minutes.

Wow! Lou was an excellent attorney who handled my divorce with expertise. He kept me from worrying about the little things and focused on the bigger picture - divorce. He took time to review the case and when I would talk to him, he remembered exactly what I was talking about. He told me he would do his best to work within the retainer and he accomplished this. When the case was over i didn't owe any additional money but, i felt compelled to give him a tip since he did such an excellent job. I feel I received an excellent judgement with my divorce and have no regrets. What Lou promised me, he delivered, better than my expectations. If you are reading this, this is definitely the attorney to hire. You can even ask me questions.

Too bad I can only give 5 stars, would give 10 if I could. Jon is the ultimate lawyer and cares about every single client. No matter how small or big the case is, Jon gives you the treatment as if your case is his only case. He and his team have a great client portal with easy access to upload documents and message with Jon and his team. Jon is a super fast responder and he will always follow up. Jon helped me with a settlement from the Insurance company which I deserved. He also helped recommend doctors for me to go to after my accident. Top of the line lawyer–hands down. Do not waste your time with anyone else and call Jon Abrahams.

I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Andrea Hamm, and I must say, her professionalism and dedication to her clients are truly exemplary. Andrea specializes in Workers' Compensation and Social Security Disability Law, and her expertise in these areas made all the difference in my case. From the moment I hired Andrea, her commitment to my case was evident. She took the time to understand the intricacies of my situation, explaining every step of the process in a way that was easy to grasp. Her office, which includes the delightful Carrie, is staffed with individuals who are not only professional but also genuinely caring and honest. Andrea's approach is not just about legal representation; it's about advocating for her clients' rights with a deep sense of empathy and understanding. She has a family history of standing up for people, and this legacy shines through in her work. Her strategic thinking and thorough preparation were key in navigating the complexities of workers' compensation, ensuring that I felt supported and informed throughout the legal proceedings. Her knowledge of medical evidence and how to leverage it effectively was crucial in my case's success. I felt fortunate to have found her; her guidance was invaluable, especially when facing a system that can often feel overwhelming and intimidating. I highly recommend Andrea Hamm to anyone in need of a social security disability attorney. Her track record, her compassionate approach, and her unwavering dedication make her one of the best in the field.

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:

  1. What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award.
  3. 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.
  4. How often do you take cases to trial?
    Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
