Our family worked with Flager & Associates on two separate occasions; a car accident and a moving violation incident for our young driver. On both occasions, the entire staff at this firm was helpful, detailed, informative, efficient, and extremely kind. Adam, Randy, Melissa, Michael and Lisa, just to name a few, were amazing to work with and were able to assist our family in ways to obtain positive results. We more than appreciate their professionalism and knowledge and completely trust that we will have incomparable legal representation when we use their services. We highly recommend this firm!

If you're injured in an accident of any kind, Ron Pollack and his firm is absolutely the way to go. If I could give him more than 5 starts I definitely would. Not only did he get a settlement and judgement for more than I could have ever imagined, but his personal service & skill were priceless! There's no question that he cared about me and treated me as an individual as compared to a number. I hope to never need his services again, but if I need a lawyer, there's only one person I would call,..and that would be Ron!

If a family situation required legal representation, Ronald Pollack would be the lawyer to hire. His expertise and willingness to take on what was thought by me to be an unwinnable case, really shows what kind of person and lawyer he is. I had to sue my brother when he was trying to steal the money from my father's estate. Given the facts, I thought no lawyer would be willing to take my case, but Mr. Pollack stepped in and told me he believed in me and would fight for me. Through his hard work and dedication, he was able to obtain a fair settlement for me. I can't say enough about him and would recommend him to anyone!

I have now had multiple cases with Mr. Pollack. My first case involved a car accident. Other lawyers told me because I had the "Limited Tort" coverage, that I had no case, or that my case was unwinnable. When I met with Mr. Pollack, not only did he listen to me and take an interest in my case, but his understanding of the medicine and nature of my injuries was truly remarkable. Due to his abilities and understanding of how to present my injuries and frame my case, he was able to achieve a result that was better than I could have dreamed. He was truly extraordinary. I then had a family dispute where a sibling was attempting to bully me and prevent me from securing monies to which I was entitled from the estate of my father. I felt like giving up. Instead, I remembered the job that Mr. Pollack did for me previously and gave him a call, never expecting him to handle my case, especially because the money involved was not nearly as large as the types of cases that he normally handles. Rather than making me feel like my case was too small, Mr. Pollack listened attentively, put my mind at ease and told me he would do everything he could to help me. Within days he had filed all of the necessary legal papers with the court and made a complex situation appear straight forward and clear. When we went to appear in court, Mr. Pollack, was articulate and persuasive. It was gratifying knowing that he was on my side. Ultimately, as a result of his handling of my claim, he was able to work out a settlement on my behalf. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Pollack for any accident or injury claim, or any other dispute for which you may need legal representation. He's not only a fantastic attorney, but he made me feel important and refused to let me feel as if I, or my case, was anything less than important and worthy of quality representation.

Benjamin Steinberg is a good lawyer despite my case was lost due to Brookdale living center under handed techniques of forging my hand writing and fake witnesses. Ben gave a great fight. He cares about his clients and he does check on them. Going into my case I wish I would have seen him sooner before my company manipulated me into agreeing to their ideas. To those who are seeking a lawyer I would recommend him. Do not risk your chance by going to your company for advise because they will take advantage of the employee. I express the importance to getting to know the knowledge you need by going to the lawyer first before going to your company. It would have made a world of difference. Do not allow the company to push you around stand up for your self and get a great person like him.

I was involved in a slip and fall accident. I called Benjamin Steinberg for assistance on what to do. He was professional while being so compassionate and caring. He advised me on what to do, answered my questions and was very patient with me. I knew he was the attorney to handle my case. Ben spoke to me several time to keep me up to date on what was happening with my case and of course he was always concerned about how I was feeling. After several months of medical treatment I felt I was feeling better and spoke to Ben about settling the case. Much to my surprise, I received a larger settlement than I had expected. Wow, Ben is terrific! I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for legal help in any type of accident. He is tops as far as I am concerned.

I hired Ben Steinberg to be my attorney after I was in a serious automobile accident. I hired Ben during a difficult time, and in retrospect it was the best decision I could have ever made. Over the course of our attorney-client relationship, Ben placed an emphasis on keeping me informed and empowered. I came away very impressed with Ben's vast knowledge in personal injury litigation and the inner-workings of the Philadelphia region's legal system. From the outset, Ben was my tireless and zealous advocate. During an uncertain time, Ben was with me every step of the way. I believe that Ben Steinberg's professionalism and unflagging devotion to always act in my best interest is what eventually led to my very significant settlement. I recommend Ben Steinberg as a personal injury attorney in the strongest possible terms.

Mr. Howard Rovner is an aggressive, experienced attorney who maintained the highest quality I could ask for in representing me. Mr. Rovner gave me personalized and immediate attention but the bottom line for me were the results that I received. He's an excellent negotiator and I see he's been voted many times as a Super Lawyer. He is highly recommended by me.

Overall Attorney Howard Rovner is effective, knowledgable, and has a strong family name and presence that proves effective in court dealings. One setback is he is more expensive than average, but given the experience of myself and others that I know, if you need effective results it can be worth the high fee to hire him because he'll get the job done.

I hired Arlene to represent me in a case where I was trying to get money back from a business who was refusing to refund my timely return of merchandise to them. Arlene took the case and kept me updated on its progress. She not only prepared for it superbly, but was also complimented by the court for her handling of the case. I was prepared to pay her fees, but she found a point of law in which the fees would be included with the settlement from the business we were up against. I am so glad I found her to be my attorney. She was professional, knowledgeable, and timely and had great rapport as an attorney. I would recommend her to anyone needing an attorney. If I had tried to do this myself, I would have had a fool for a client. Call her. She never charged me just to talk.

I attempted to hire Ms. Morris last month before my hearing date. Divorce was the court and Morris was there to serve. Immediately she looked over the size of my huge case and told me she’ll take it Pro Bono. I never thought anyone could handle so much at one time. Just thinking about it now gets me excited. She was amazing. I let her know my brother was having the same problems she said “make sure he’s here next time” I brought him because she wanted to make sure he came. I mean this is a person who cares. To handle both of us at once was nothing short of spectacular. It’s like she’s speaking in tongues or something and before you know it she had both of us doing n a victory lap around her garden. I learned never get married again but if I did it would be because of Ms Morris ….

Today I received a very favorable outcome. Ms. Morris was able to negotiate and dismiss a petition against me in support court. She knows what I need to do, while saving me thousands of dollars in litigation. She is fair and will work with you.
She doesn’t unnecessarily waste your money on emails, phone calls etc. She will jump on issues that are important and knows when to take charge.
At times, things seemed to be against me (as it’s the nature of the court system), but with patience and perseverance, I prevailed!!!!

Sandy is a tough little cookie! She gets results and really knows her place in the courtroom. She was such a big help to me during my 2+ year painful process. I can actually consider her a friend after all the hell I have been through. She was available to me at any time that I needed her and she was very reliable. She went to bat for me from day one and not once did I feel like I would lose with her by my side. I would give her 10 stars if I could. Thank you Sandy for all you did for me.

Marina is an excellent attorney. Not only does she make time for you regardless of who you are, but she is also very smart and kind. Not only herself, but she has cultivated an incredible team of individuals that are always available to assist whenever I had a question. I was involved in a bad accident and was referred to her by a friend and I was not disappointed. They swiftly and easily helped through this difficult period in my life. Won be the rightful justice I was deserved and allowed me to get back on my feet knowing I had this team supporting me every step of the way. Marina Kats will always be my go-to for any and all attorney matters and I will without a doubt refer her to anyone that may need the services of an attorney in the future.

Had a misfortune of hiring Mr. Lukomski for auto accident case. Had a judgement awarded, however, 7 years and counting later, still no sight of money. He failed to go after my former insurance company for Underinsured/Uninsured and has not sent out any update in over a year. Calling him is pointless - never returns any calls, secretary is useless, case is pretty much in a black hole. Abandoned case without even a courtesy of saying that much. I'm now looking into what actions I can take to collect on my judgement and correct this malpractice. I would recommend this attorney only to party I'd want to sue (and lose).

Very poor communicator. I never knew what he was doing with my injury case. He had his secretary communicate with me, and she is RUDE. Always hung up on me when I called the office. We went to trial, and he was reading the paperwork right before we went into the courtroom. I think this was the first time he even looked at the paperwork. He was pessimistic, even though we won! Urged me to settle for low amount of $ because he said we didn't have a chance of winning if we asked for more. Lazy, lazy, lazy. I definitely would NOT recommend.

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.
