Donna and the team at RLG came highly recommended to me from someone that I highly respect. In the end, I chose this team and it proved to be the right decision for me without question. I am very thankful to have had this team working to ensure that I got the absolute best outcome possible. While the divorce process was awful, I cannot imagine going through it without this team. They are highly experienced, strategic, compassionate and really good people.

Attorney Chester has been referred to me by the online Montgomery Bar Association Referral Service. NO THE PHONE REFERRAL SERVICE, I have to underline that because they are incredible and do they best to assist. Back to Mr.Chester! I contacted him for a Condo Association dispute. first thing on the phone, He asked me what is the management company, I told him and he answered: " the company is owned by a good friend of his". Without being an attorney I spotted a conflict of interest right at the beginning of the conversation and the end of the conversation attests it and the lack of objectivity of this attorney. He found normal for a management company to hold a storage key of an owner for 2 years, He found normal a management company don't have and hold accurate and update paperwork. That management provide a 1989 ( 35 YEARS OLD) contract to be applied on a newly owned property of 2020. and so on.
I definitely DO NOT recommend this attorney.
He doesn't go to court to represent you or the law he studied!!
This attorney response to the review show you should not even think going there. YOU ALL READING THIS REVIEW ARE NOT FIRM CLIENT & LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT FIRM

I’m so thankful we found a lawyer we can trust. Jules has helped me and my family for many years for both personal and business issues. He has been our business advisor for the past 14 yrs, negotiating the contracts for our property purchases, conducting real estate settlements and preparing our operating agreement for our LLC .
He guided me through the difficult process of being the probate for my father's estate and helped our family with all the estate planning. Overall, I find him to be easily reachable, knowledgeable in his field and effective.

I could do this anonymously but I won’t. My name is Antoine Haskins and I had a Life sentence. I basically gave up on freedom and life itself. But God sent me Isabelle Raquin and she helped me attain my freedom. She is a Godsend for real. She actually cares about her clients and when you email her or message her she responds back. Not in weeks or months. Like a day or two. She is amazing. Trust me you won’t be sorry if you get her. You want freedom or your loved ones free hire Isabelle Raquin and watch her work. She’s very respectable and respectful. Honestly I can’t say enough good things about her. Don’t believe me? Check my page and you’ll see for yourself.

Seth Diamond was an absolute Godsend. He took excellent care of us and went above and beyond to make sure we got the best possible outcome. He handled everything start to finish and made the entire process as painless and seamless as possible. He made sure we understood everything top to bottom, and we are so relieved to be debt free and have peace of mind once again. I would highly recommend Seth Diamond to everyone. He is extremely patient, thorough, compassionate and highly skilled in his field. Our experience was very positive and surprisingly pleasant for a bankruptcy proceeding!

Mal is great at this -- He listened intently, read over all paperwork and evidence and won my case in a very masterful manner. It was a first time DUI charge, no priors, no accident, with refusal to blow. I was instructed on steps to take prior to my hearing, preparation, and what to expect. Come hearing-time, I was ready to plea, but he took it trial and was found not guilty, and only paid traffic citations. In the future, I will recommend Mal's office to friends and family.

Debra is truly a gift of a human being! My family member advised me to speak with her regarding my custody case that seemed to just drag for the last few years. Working with Debra is the greatest experience I could've been given and I hope everyone chooses her for their legal desires. Her knowledge, care and communication has awarded me with the blessing of a breeze of a case in and out of the courtroom. She fights her hardest and is clearly very successful in her career. She has made me feel like my family is truly a priority to her and her ability to take the stress out of such an emotional case makes her the greatest attorney you will ever connect with.

Attorney Ackerman was recommended to me by a colleague. I advised him that I was going through a divorce and needed representation. We had a phone consultation and I immediately knew that she was the Attorney that I needed. Attorney Ackerman was very knowledgeable, kind, assertive and pleasure to work with. Attorney Ackerman made me feel like my case was the only case she had for almost a year. Attorney Ackerman assisted me with retaining my most important assets. I highly recommend Attorney Ackerman you will NOT regret it.

Debra was a godsend! She handled my situation, and guided me through my legal process, with the utmost care and professionalism. She listened to my every concern and explained all the details which put me at great ease. She fought hard for me and we came out victorious. Her court room skills are superior and her legal knowledge is top notch! She is also a wonderfully nice person who I like to call once in a while just to say hello.
I fully and wholeheartedly recommend her if you are in need of “the very best” attorney around!

I’ve known Bill for several years. He’s a great guy! I had the opportunity to use him as an attorney recently. His prices were very reasonable and he put a lot of effort into and did a great job for us. There was a lot of concerns I wasn’t aware of, and he handled them all with ease. We were gradually transferring ownership of my business over from myself to my general manager, I’ve had friends use Bill for other things and everybody has been extremely pleased . I highly recommend Bill Henry for any of your legal needs.

A family member recently received two underage drinking citations within a few month period. The close proximity of the charges threatened to leave a permanent record that could be a burden to the client's reputation and advancement for years. In this somewhat unusual case, Bill Henry proposed a creative solution to the Court that was accepted and ultimately resulted in the complete dismissal and expungement of all charges. Bill's ongoing timely communication to multiple Maryland state officials and to us, his clients, was exemplary. We were continuously updated by phone, email, and in personal meetings, as to the status of all proceedings. We felt that we were receiving the care and expert service that clients with much larger cases (and budgets for legal services) might expect. Bill is an attentive, articulate problem-solver whose energetic attention to the details of the case was remarkable -- and he handled every aspect personally, never delegating even basic administrative tasks to others.
As a young person, the client required an attorney who could not only handle the legal tasks, but could be reassuring and encouraging through this frightening brush with the legal system.
We will engage Bill Henry, if future needs arise, and will highly recommend him. We want to express our gratitude for Bill's hard work and his steady commitment to his client.

I have worked with mr Henry twice on two different cases. The first was my fathers estate
It was a very sticky mess and required knowledge of all different aspects with properties under water and extreme debt. However mr Henry handled the estate well and everything worked out so well. He gave the best advice and broke down all the legal jargon for me to better understand my options. The second was my own will he did it for my husband and I and did a great job. Of course it was done well and fast! He is a great lawyer and person. I highly recommend him.

I contacted Ms. Demougeot to help my father and I with a criminal defense case in 2017. From the start, she understood that we were all very much on edge about the situation and she took the time to calm us down. She walked us through the process and was honest and straightforward with us about each step, but - most importantly- she fought very hard for us. My father does not speak English, and having a lawyer able to switch back and forth between Spanish and English to make him feel comfortable was invaluable. She has a powerful presence in the courtroom and her dedication to us - her clients - reassured both my father and myself. She's truly an excellent attorney and I know she'd be the first person I would call if I ever needed a lawyer again.

I contacted Mr. Rand less than a week before my scheduled hearing date. His fee for the initial consultation was very reasonable and overall his charges are reasonable. During the consultation we were able to figure the focus of my case which was a great help among all the issues I wanted to include. I decided to present my case myself and Mr. Rand spent 4 hours with me on a rainy SUNDAY afternoon to help me prepare. Tom knows many different areas of law- my complaint was against a condo association- his preparation helped me overcome the opposition which had TWO high priced lawyers presenting their case.
I would (and WILL) work with Tom in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking to hire a knowledgeable attorney with solid credentials.

After going through three previous attorneys, Mr. Rand was referred to my unique and difficult custody case. The intricacies and nuance required to effectively present and adjudicate this case was near perfect from the start - for the most part it required time and an earnest interest on Mr.Rands part and that's precisely what I received in the end. Highly reccomend!!!

If you are lucky enough to have Tom Rand represent you, know that you have the best! Tom represented our company in a major lawsuit and absolutely hammered the opposition. Tom does not miss anything and is EXTREMELY smart. Tom is exceptional in his attention to detail and will work tirelessly to ensure he explores every possible angle in your case, giving you the best opportunity to be victorious in your case. We consider ourselves very lucky to have him on our side and would (and frequently do) refer him without a second thought!

I was referred to Joel Zuckerman by another outstanding lawyer, Stephen Alexander Shechtel (has a perfect 10 rating on Avvo) whom was recommended to me by a trusted friend’s lawyer, Brian Sadur. This friend (a doctor and father), who had experienced an international marriage/divorce with a Japanese national, fully understood the custody challenges involved when divorcing a Japanese National—for context: Japanese culture advocates sole custody to the Japanese parent as the only and safest option for all Japanese (mixed or otherwise) children (hence Japan’s nickname “the black hole of child abduction”). This friend, who despite being a father and non-Japanese, managed to successful win fair custody access to his children against a Japanese mother—therefore his recommendation was clearly sound. Because of gross manipulation and abuse of the courts by my ex-husband’s lawyer, Jessica Markham (read my google review of Jessica Markham for a more thorough understanding of her slimy fermented underskin), I didn’t get the opportunity to follow-up on the recommendation until after my children were kidnapped in Japan from the USA by their father/my-japanese-ex-husband. Shechtel was unable to take on a new case at the time, but he referred me to Joel Zuckerman, who is not only an exceptional lawyer with an intact moral compass (as he took my case knowing I had already extinguished all my funds on legal fees up to that point), but whom also is experienced with complicated international custody cases.
When working on my case, I was blown away by how efficient and concise he worked with his time and communication (being mindful to not waste any of my already depleted funds). He always gave me straight answers (even when he knew it wasn’t the one I wanted to hear) and managed my expectations of what he could or couldn’t do for me. He also worked very fast to meet my fast moving Japanese court deadlines (as my ex always turned in his motions late leaving little time to prepare rebuttals—a shady trick Markham also used in US court). Despite managing my expectations realistically of a low recovery rate with Japan (to date, no non-Japanese parent has ever successfully recovered their child from japan through the Hague convention, and those recovered by other means are estimated to be around 4% in the last 40+ years), he successfully coordinated with my Japanese lawyer, Takao Tanase, to recover my children from parental abduction by means of a Habeas Corpus motion in Tokyo High Court—an insanely difficult task and even more rare feat. I can’t recommend Joel enough to parents in complicated custody battles and feel you won’t find a more hardworking and efficient lawyer with an intact integrity.

Joel Zuckerman represented me during my divorce and support enforcement/recalculation proceedings. I feel extremely fortunate to have had Joel's assistance through one of the most difficult times in my life. He is honest, professional, extremely thorough and well-prepared at all times. He also responds to questions almost instantly, which is very reassuring when your life is turned upside down by divorce. To this day I am impressed by how well he knew the facts of my case, how he checked in on me throughout the process to make sure we were working on long term solutions that would work for my family, and how he zealously protected my interests when I needed it most.
My perspective is somewhat unique. Because of Joel's excellent advocacy, I was able to attend law school after my divorce. I now know that Joel has a reputation for being a hard opponent to beat in court, but is also well-liked within the legal community. This means that Joel is tough when you need him to be, but adheres to professional standards in a way that benefits, not harms, his clients' interests. Additionally, Joel's legal writing and arguments are well researched, clear, and spot on, which goes a long way toward creating successful outcomes for clients.
I can tell you that, both as a client and an (almost) attorney, Joel is one of the best Maryland has to offer. I recommend him to everyone I know because he is hardworking and adept, and I will try to emulate how he treated me as a client when I represent my own clients. What more can I say than that?

I met Mr. Zuckerman by accident. I got a temporary protective order from my ex and I was given the names of 3 attorneys to call. I found Joel Zuckerman on my own without recommendations. I called all 4 attorneys and Mr. Zuckerman was the only one that went above and beyond what I expected. It was my first time going through this and I did not know what to do, think or expect. However, he went directly to the court to get the recording of what my ex told the judge that allowed the judge to grant a temporary protective order. I was impressed. I hired him and during my the protective order hearing he was able to turn everything around. I then hired him for custody because there was an agreement signed that I had no clue of what certain things meant, but he represented me well and I was able to get additional items reverted from the contract I signed.
A few years later I hired him again for custody and we won custody and about $1800/month in child support. He was able to uncover a lot of income my ex was hiding. I couldn't have gone through my custody without him. He is experienced and professional, but most importantly he cares.

I have had the opportunity to work with many good attorneys throughtout my career but Don makes me feel like I am his only client. So no matter what the issue (concerning my company or personal matters), he can get them resolved for me.

After thirty five years with the company, only missing time out due to two pregnancies, I got hurt at work. One would think after all these years with the company one would know what to do. To my surprise, people were saying you can't file a workers’ comp claim, the company will fire you or make your life miserable.
I called many different law firms and they would not take my case. It was looking very gloomy until someone recommended Will Inman to me. He is very knowledgeable, straight forward, patient and very clear with every step of the way. All one has to do is follow his instructions. He gives you top priority which makes you feel like you are his only client. His office is very busy and the staff is very competent. Will is a professional who makes you feel at ease. He is one person who will call you back by the end of day. He understands what the client is going through. Everything is done in a timely manner.
Will is highly regarded by his peers and the judges. He works long hours especially over the weekend and you can reach him anytime. He is one of the most gifted men I have ever met. He is down to earth and very personable.
I would recommend him to anyone who needs help. He has achieved all the things I needed for my pain management and the lost time from work paid. I'm very grateful for everything he has done for me. I cannot say enough for this man, he has saved my life.

Will Inman knows his business and goes about it with clarity and timeliness. You're in good hands if you have the ability to listen with an open mind and follow directions. With his "know-how" and both of you working with his competent office staff, you'll quickly recognize that you're going to get the best results possible. He acts swiftly when necessary and knows when to ride out the process. This professional behavior is the result of a man who understands how to deal with the minutia of law.
As someone who is struggling, this is very important because I feel anxious about how long everything takes and whether or not I'll be able to provide for my future because my original plans no longer matter since having a life-changing accident. Will gets the "big picture" and what more could put you at ease than knowing you've found an attorney who will actively defend your legal woes for the best possible outcome. I keep reminding myself that it's difficult to see a big picture when you stand too close to it. It's necessary to stand back to observe all the techniques the artist used to create an image you can understand as a whole.
To anyone who is looking for a good attorney with years of experience, I recommend that you take a step back and review Will Inman's profile to see if he can help you with your legal concerns.

Mr. Goldberg helped me to receive the maximum settlement possible for an auto accident that left me injured.
I was very fortunate to have found Jonathan Goldberg after having had a negative experience with a “highly advertised” attorney in the DC area. From the initial consultation until the final appointment to pick up my settlement check, I was never farmed out to an associate or paralegal. In every instance, he represented me and conducted himself with uncommon integrity and legal acumen. His skills were never more apparent than when I had the opportunity to watch him engage the defendants' counsel. He did so with the skills of an expert trial attorney and seasoned diplomat.
I would not hesitate to ask Jonathan Goldberg to represent me again should the need arise.

Doug Gross is not the typical attorney who takes your case and then doesn’t take your calls until HE wants to talk with you. On the contrary, he is attentive and knowledgeable and he cares about you. It was quite a relief to meet an attorney like him. He is dedicated to his work and his clients. I recommend him wholeheartedly to everyone who needs a lawyer with his expertise. I know they will be more than satisfied with his services.

I've been fortunate to have Doug as my attorney since 2002, through various on-the-job injuries. Worker's compensation can be a confusing and intimidating beast, especially when the employer is a county government that does not care in the least for its public safety employees. It's important to have someone on your side who understands how the system works and cares about your well-being. You need someone who knows what he's doing (which, believe it or not, seems to be more the exception than the rule), and this is the man to call.

My company was involved in a recent litigation. We were late in selecting an attorney to represent us in the case. I was referred to Patrick Flores firm several days before the actual trail date. Patrick was assigned to our case. In matter of days, Patrick prepared for the trail and more importantly, he understood the key issues of the case. When the trail began, the opposing attorney questioned the first witness who was called by the other party. Then it was Patrick's turn, he was able to ask the questions in such an incredible way that the key witness for the opposing side actually admitted that they were wrong. The judge just based on that testimony ruled in our favor. Patrick Flores is a capable, smart and hardworking attorney.

Greenblatt & Veliev were invaluable in helping me through a difficult time.
After I was involved in an accident and suffered injuries, I didn’t know what to do. Lonnie and Elnur walked me through the process and made it easy. From the very start I knew I was in good hands. They were very prompt, responding to my emails and phone calls. I also consider them to be highly ethical and trustworthy. Thank you very much for all your help!

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.
