I wholeheartedly recommend Attorney George MacKoul to anyone seeking a powerful, highly skilled attorney who will advocate tirelessly on their behalf.
Attorney MacKoul is a brilliant gentleman whose ethical standards of legal practice are truly commendable. He clearly has an in-depth understanding of the law and has a remarkable ability to navigate complex legal issues with precision and insight.
Throughout my case, Attorney MacKoul demonstrated an extraordinary ability to listen, understand, and provided thoughtful counsel. He made me feel safe on this sad and emotional rollercoaster that I had unexpectedly found myself on.
I am profoundly grateful for Attorney MacKoul's expertise and unwavering support. He not only achieved a favorable outcome for my case but did so in a manner that preserved my mother’s dignity and respected her last wishes.
George, thank you for your kindness and grace. You are a true beacon of ethical practice and integrity in the legal profession!

The best lawyer hands down! I was searching for a lawyer for 9 months plus, and I feel like first impression, as well as your gut feeling is a big deciding factor when choosing a partner to assist you when the time is needed, I've been working with George and his staff for over a year now, even though my case is a year or more and hopefully being done, I would not have wanted anybody else in my corner! George and his staff have become friends, allies as well as inspirational, win or lose I wouldn't want anybody else on this case! Do not think twice about George and his staff! I wish there was a way to give more than five stars!

In June of 2020, I was entering a grocery store and slipped in a puddle of water on the floor and broke my ankle. I was on vacation from California and did not know any Attorneys. A friend suggested George MacKoul in Hyannis. George had practiced in California and was very knowledgeable in both California and Massachusetts law.
George really helped me with ideas to assist him in preparing my case. One suggestion was keeping a daily diary. The case took 2 years to close. George negotiated a very good settlement. He and his Assistant, Diane, made our long-distance communication and document filing seamless.
I would definitely encourage anyone to engage the services of George MacKoul!

I hired George to represent me in a dispute I had with a boat yard. The boatyard failed to properly winterize my boat causing damage to the engines, and the cabin. The boatyards insurance company tried to offer me a small amount of money, but once I had George on the case things changed rapidly. I ended up getting the compensation I was asking for from the insurance company, and they had to dispose of the boat themselves. I can't say enough about George and how he efficiently worked through this dispute for me. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need.

Attorney MacKoul was recommended to me from a friend in a very trying Litigation case that did not need to go to court. Attorney MacKoul explained in detail exactly what we were going to do and could have not made me feel any more confident in how we were to proceed with my case. The communication was exactly how it should have been and I felt very comfortable once we discussed the details. I could not be any happier with the end results and feel that I have established a long term relationship. Honesty, integrity, communication, and clear cut decisions are what Attorney MacKoul strives for and that is what I received. A big Thank You for everything!

I am a native to Cape Cod and hired attorney Manoog after an unfortunately timed car accident in Colorado. I was about to move back to Massachusetts. My car was totaled and, as a result of lost work, my bank account was as well. John Manoog and his team resolved my case within 8 months of the accident and were both professional and compassionate about my situation. Having just started my first year as a PhD student I am eternally grateful for their time and patience in navigating this tough time for me.

I recently wrapped up my case with Attorney Weigand. Two years ago I was in an auto accident. This happened while I was working. As you can imagine: I was not only devastated by being out of work and on workers comp; but, I was also seriously injured. I ended up needing a surgical procedure on my neck. Blair, not only, took care of the accident with my car; he also handled the workers comp part, as well. He is an attorney that truly cares about his clients welfare and more importantly than that; their well-being. I don't believe I ever went into his office for an appointment that he didn't inquire about my neck and my health status. He truly cares and he is super knowledgeable when it comes to handling these "NASTY" insurance companies. It was a relief, when they would call me; and I would say: my attorney has advised me to refer you to him. I have nothing more to say! I got to say: it made my life 16 times easier and I was able to focus on myself and getting well. Hopefully, you are never in a position to need this kind of assistance: but, it is comforting to know, if you need someone: he is your man!

Blair did an awesome job! I was in an auto accident and suffered a mild back injury. He explained everything to me so I could understand the process and all my options. Since I wasn't completely out of commission and pretty much able to get around I wasn't expecting to get much knowing how insurance companies don't want to pay out. I will say you need to be patient and let things take their course but it will be worth it. At our last meeting he showed me a document of the final outcome. At first I thought there must have been a misprint on the line that showed the amount that I was getting. However, Blair assured me the figure was in fact correct. Let’s just say it was literally three times what I was expecting. Blair knows what he's doing and hit the ball out of the park!
I highly recommend him and if I ever need a legal resource again I know where I'm going.

I contacted attorney Blair Weigand in 2014 after I was badly burned from a tanning bed incident. I had bad burns on the right side of my face and body. It was absolutely miserable. He immediately met with me and discussed all avenues. He had me set up with a dermatologist and kept in contact with me to see how I healed. Luckily no scarring on my face but after all was said and done attorney Bair Weigand got me the best result in compensation and even after we had met about that he called me a few weeks later to let me know he had got me even more money! I am very satisfied with the way my case was handled and I highly recommend attorney Weigand to anyone who was injured due to negligence. Thanks attorney Blari Weigand !!!

Attorney Princi has been our family and business counselor for over 30 years.
During that time he has guided us through all types of real estate transactions, the creation and execution of estate plans and trusts and provided guidance regarding various business endeavors, encompassing acquisition, operations of and when fiscally beneficial or appropriate, dissolution.
All the above, but more importantly, Michael has been that wise attentive ear, regardless of the matter, for three generations of my family.
We have valued his guidance and actions on our behalf, and will continue to seek his counsel for years to come.

For over 30 years Mr. Princi and his law firm have represented me personally and my former company with several problems we encountered with people who hired us for a project but did not live up to their responsibility. Whenever I needed to vent he would listen to my rantings and then make a suggestion as how to resolve it. Thanks Michael

Bruce Bierhans helped our family after the tragic loss of our mother. Bruce supported our family every step of the way. He helped us to tell my mother's story and honor her memory, while seeking justice on her behalf. Bruce's tireless dedication and integrity were evident throughout the entire legal process and particularly at trial. Bruce Bierhans is an intelligent, kind, experienced and compassionate attorney who puts everything into his work. I am so grateful he was in our corner. Bruce Bierhans is truly in a class by himself. As a practicing attorney myself, I must add that the legal profession is better because Bruce Bierhans is a member.

After being involved in a serious rear-end car accident caused by a negligent driver, I found myself in serious pain & overwhelmed. I had to deal with insurance companies trying to minimize their payout and healthcare providers who weren't guiding me toward the best recovery plan and were making billing errors beyond my understanding. Realizing I needed help, I asked a couple of very knowledgeable attorney friends for recommendations on the best personal injury lawyers on Cape Cod.
Attorney Peter Goldberg's name came up multiple times.
The first attorney I contacted had the most ratings online, but he opted for an initial phone consultation instead of an in-person meeting. He mentioned handling the most personal injury cases on the Cape and would assign an associate to work with me. My impression was that I was just a number to him, and when I reread his reviews, it seemed I wasn’t alone in feeling this way.
The second attorney I reached out to was well-credentialed and came with strong professional recommendations. However, it was clear from his reviews that personal injury cases were only a small portion of his practice. I wanted someone who primarily specialized in personal injury law.
My third call was to Attorney Peter M. Goldberg. After our initial phone call, he quickly made time to meet with me. During our meeting, I explained my situation, and he listened carefully, responding with empathy, consideration, and honest professionalism. It was clear he was highly knowledgeable in the areas of law I needed for navigating the insurance and medical aspects of my case. He made no promises or guarantees but assured me that his firm would represent me to the best of their ability. I trusted my intuition and hired him.
Seven months later, my case was settled. Attorney Goldberg and his team, especially Ashley, who managed my case, were incredibly kind and professional. Whenever I had issues with aggressive insurance reps or billing errors, they were there to guide and protect me. I am extremely grateful for their support. They went above and beyond what I expected, and the outcome exceeded my expectations.
From the time of the accident, it took me almost a month of physical pain and pressure from insurance companies to find my way to Attorney Peter Goldberg. Once I did, my problems quickly disappeared—no more billing or insurance issues. The case settled quickly and above my expectations, and I would wholeheartedly endorse Peter Goldberg and his team to anyone needing personal injury representation.

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.
