Michael helped me get thru a terrible car accident that left me injured. It's a very confusing process dealing with insurance companies and coverage, and he helped me navigate thru it every step of the way for over the past year! I'm honestly so thankful I had him to back me up and guide me thru this process and fight for my well being. He's very personable and really cares about his clients and overall outcome---I wouldn't have had my injuries taken care of this well without his support! I highly recommend using him for any kind of car accident and injury cases. Thank you, Michael!

I am very satisfied with the outcome of my case and I am ver thankful to Alex Capozzi, he is one of the best attorneys, if not the best. Communication with Nicole Accardi was impecable, she always made herself available, via, phone or email. Every time I had any concerns she provided prompt responses. It was an honor to do business with the entire team.

You were mocking me of my 1st lawyer saying I shouldn’t find a lawyer from yellow pages and that you were much more experienced and showboated with all your high cases with great results. Once I retained you as my lawyer your result was far worst than my 1st attorney.
And you would utter following,I’ll even tell my own brother to take this offer. Which brother of yours? Peter or Thomas? Robert, I forgive you but unless you change the way you treat your clients, you’ll aways be changing boats. Learn to have integrity and you won’t have to move from one office to another so often

Mike and his team were wonderful to work with. Mike was recommended to us by our realtor and we were extremely pleased with the outcome. He made our home purchase a smooth and enjoyable process. He guided us with our purchase, giving us options that we didn't even realize were possible. Without Mike's help, we wouldn't be enjoying our new home. Mike went above and beyond, even coming to us for our first meeting, which was both informative and friendly. Mike's team was easy to work with and kept constant communication throughout the process. We would absolutely use Mike and his team in the future and have already recommended him to family. Thanks, Mike.

Another lawyer told me that it was doubtful that I would prevail in keeping a property that a large wealthy bank had initiated a lawsuit to take from me. Mr. Skolnick was successful and the bank was not able to take the property from me. I had foreclosed on the property, and the bank was trying to get it back. Because of Mr. Skolnick's capable representation, I still am the proud owner of that property. .

We hired David Mazie and we couldn't have been happier with our decision. David is responsive and kept us informed with every aspect of our case. David fought hard for our interests and is a responsible advocate, who is respected for his experience and dedication.

David Mazie, in my opinion, is the best Attorney in the Country. Although he is well versed in legal knowledge, he dealt with our family with the utmost compassion and respect. Without being too specific, our case was nine years old when presented to him. He tirelessly worked around the clock with his firm, sometimes meeting or calling us after hours or on weekends. He takes his cases personally, so, he is very selective with his law partners and other professionals he brings into every case. You would really think that a lawyer of his stature wouldn't be pleasant to work with, but our family found him very personable and he can relate to people from all walks of life. We prayed for a top notch Attorney like Atty. Mazie and our prayers were answered. We had spoken with other lawyers but none were as professional and dedicated to our case than David Mazie. Our long and drawn out law suit was wrapped up by Mr. Mazie with amazing speed It only took him two years to research and finally try our case, which we won !!
To get the best results for his clients, he only works with the best - that's it! That's his secret, if any at all. He brought in professionals from different states who are all at the top of their field. We know that this is more expensive to do but Atty Mazie is so confident in winning that he stops at nothing to give his clients more than a fair chance should there be a trial. He uses the latest technology in and out of the courtroom. An example of this is that he brought in computer graphics specialists to reenact the specifics of the case so that the jury could fully understand the details of the case.
Please look no further for an Attorney. DAVID MAZIE IS THE BEST LAWYER!. What more do you need to contact him? Be fortunate if he takes your case, because you know you are in good hands with a top notch and well respected lawyer.
Good Luck !!

I cannot say better things about Eric Melzer and the team at BLKGG. I was introduced to Eric when he called to renew a trademark for a nonprofit I became the new President for. I had no prior relationship or referral/connection with him so I was a little hesitant at first, and almost had another attorney that I have worked with handle the trademark renewal. I figured I would give Eric a shot since he was the original attorney to handle the trademark, and it was the best decision I ever made.
Seven years later, Eric now handles all my legal matters for my businesses, and any other personal matters, and I have never been happier. He is sharp, concise, efficient, and tactfully aggressive when needed against an adversary.
Eric has always done the right thing for me and when something falls out of his expertise, he introduces me to someone in his firm that specializes in exactly what I need.

To Whom is May Concern,
In February of 2023 I was hospitalized as a result of a serious accident that required months of
rehabilitation as well as surgery. While hospitalized, I contacted the Starr, Gern, Davidson &
Rubin law firm for legal representation. The firm had successfully represented my mother in a
legal matter several years earlier. David Wendel was assigned as my personal injury attorney.
David asked very pertinent questions involving the accident. He also made very helpful
recommendations concerning medical treatment and rehabilitation specialists that would assist
in my recovery. I followed his advice and the medical specialists that he recommended helped
me make a complete recovery. David also intervened with medical insurance companies
whenever coverage issues arose. He is very personable and easy to converse with. He also
kept me informed of any important developments in the legal proceedings.
I consider myself fortunate to have had David Wendel as my legal advocate. I highly
recommend David to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney. In addition, the financial
award that I received as a result of his efforts far exceeded my expectations.
Sincerely

I strongly recommend Henry Cistrelli. He was great from the beginning of the process until the end. He is very responsive. He makes time to go over or explain what may seem difficult to understand. When he is out of the office, he gets back to you upon his return. His process is quick. He tells you about the process during the first meeting and keeps you up to date.

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.
