Ray was really terrific to work with. I had another lawyer before I switched who tried to get me to accept a minimum policy amount after my car accident. After I switched to Ray I got the whole policy which was double what I was being offered. He was great to work with and super aggressive when he needed to be.

Facing mortality is not one of those things one is eager to deal with, but eventually people have to and should do it - make a will, that is. Esther guided us through the process expertly. She has a great sense of humor and can put the subject in understandable terms, while putting us at ease about the process. She was patient with all our questions.

I met and interviewed a LOT of lawyers in preparation for my divorce. I even hired two before finding this website and being able to read reviews. Stefanie has 5 stars for a reason: she's not only great at her job knowing the law inside and out, she's also kind, dependable, compassionate and attentive. She's someone who took the time to clearly explain details, answer my questions and move the process forward. She was proactive to tell me what I could expect and honest enough to tell me when I was being unreasonable. Working with her was a true partnership and I could not have asked for better representation. I appreciated her responsiveness throughout the process and how she went out of her way to check in to see how I was holding up. She is a very diligent, knowledgeable, caring and hard working attorney that I respect and refer any chance I get. Divorce is hard. And if your here, likely the marriage was a mistake. Choosing the wrong divorce lawyer makes things even worse. Do yourself a favor and retain Stefanie to navigate you through this difficult time, you'll be glad you did.

Stefanie is the best! She came over to my house on a Saturday night at 10 o'clock with her daughter and her husband because it was an urgent situation and I needed help in the moment since I was not able to see my daughter. I did not expect her to come at all, let alone stay for over an hour to help me and make me feel better. Then she met me in court on Monday morning and was able to get the relief I needed. I could not recommend her enough, she really cares and will go out of her way to help, even on the weekend!

We hired Gerry to represent us in a medical malpractice suit--as a doctor made some careless mistakes in surgery resulting in the death of my mom. We interviewed a total of six other law firms (2 being top/successful firms in Manhattan and Long Island). Gerry was hired do to his personal presentation (initial office visit) and a strong personal reference that came indirectly from a leader and past president of the New York State Trial Lawyers association, who was also a competitor. Gerry and or his assistant Francis will keep you informed weekly or however you want it set up by email or even phone, never letting you wonder at any point of the litigation what is going on with your case. Remember that your lawyer will representing you during a long and lengthy process, so it is crucial to hire one that makes a good impression & aggressive, but not annoying, as your lawyer will have to deal with many types of personalities during your case. Gerry seemed to fit the criteria. He also helped guide us on how we went about setting up a special needs trust for my disabled sister so she could benefit from the settlement. and we did get a decent settlement. Feel free to contact me with any specific questions regarding Gerry. He knows where to find us. and one final note: Gerry returns calls super fast.

I started working with Gerry about 4.5 years ago, when I discovered his web site and turned for help with a wrongful death case involving my wife. Once retained, Gerry investigated a potential legal action by obtaining medical records and having the case reviewed by a medical expert.
Thanks to Gerry’s monthly update notes and our regular phone discussions, I always felt well informed of what had transpired in my case in the preceding month and what to expect in the near future. The depositions taken by Gerry from the doctors involved in the case showed that he developed an in-depth understanding of my wife’s medical history, the methodology of the surgical procedure at issue, and the clinical consequences of the surgery. As the case was nearing its final stage, Gerry provided a critical evaluation of the arguments he was planning to use in mediation, as well as the arguments likely to be used by the defense. As a result of this analysis, we were able to reach a settlement that I felt comfortable with. Throughout my collaboration with Gerry, I always felt that my case was in good hands.

My husband and I tried for 2 1/2 years to get a loan modification for our mortgage. We hired two previous law firms (who did nothing but take our money) before turning to Radow Law Group. They were able to get us a permanent loan modification in 4 months. I cannot praise this law firm enough. They go out of their way to get the job done. Extremely professional, constant communication, always answer your phone call/email. If you want the job done, hire Radow Law Group! They are the absolute best.

We met Abraham and Evelyn a couple of years after Abraham helped our aunt with her will and preparations for elder life, and they truly stood out. Both of them took the time to explain everything clearly and thoughtfully. Evelyn guided us through all the paperwork with incredible care and attention to detail. She was warm, sharp, and always made herself available whenever we had questions. They collaborated with our aunt’s accountant to ensure everything was done perfectly. We were so impressed with their help that we returned to them for our own needs and have since recommended them to friends. They are thoughtful, reliable, and genuinely care about the people they work with.

Mr. Abruzzese came to me highly recommended from a friend who hired Mr. Abruzzese to represent him in a personal injury matter and after consulting with Mr. Abruzzese about my landlord/tenant case I knew he was the right lawyer for me. He was very knowledgeable and gave me top quality legal representation without drowning me in legal fees. It was nice to see a lawyer so involved in every aspect of my case and always punctual on court dates. With so many lawyers to choose from I felt the need to write this review to help make that decision easier for others.

I found Kevin to be very diligent and passionate about his work. He proved to have a very strong work ethic and was always quick to respond to my numerous inquiries. My personal injury case had a unique set of facts which some big NYC firms I consulted would not touch but Kevin was up for the challenge and willing to take a risk by outlaying his own money because he knew I deserved to be compensated and he delivered. I am very grateful to him for taking my case.

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.
