I cannot say enough great things about Ms. Dow and her incredible team. From start to finish, they have been nothing but professional, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to my case. Their attention to detail, expertise, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome have been outstanding. I’ve worked with top attorneys in the past for other legal matters, but I can confidently say that I wish I had Ms. Dow representing me from the very beginning. Had I know about Ms.Dow during my divorce, I am certain I wouldn’t have had to return to court. She and her team approach every aspect of the case with precision and care, ensuring no stone is left unturned. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly fights for you, communicates effectively, and delivers results, look no further than Ms. Dow. I highly recommend her and her team to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation. Thank you, Ms. Dow, for everything you and your team have done!.

Lecour Law office, was a big big help with my Eviction case trying to get rid of tenants. Elina answered all my questions that we needed and ones of course we didn’t want to hear. But you want to hear the truth, and that is what Elina did. And she gave us Steve as our Lawyer to handle our case in court and Steve did hell of a great job. When I saw him argue for us, that was it. We won the case and we were able to get rid of our tenants. Thank you for Lecour Law office.

Great law firm. Initially went in cause i found out I needed a attorney to respond to some court paper when I went to the court across the street. I was hesitant to go in cause I had already been in contact with another attorney. But they never reached back to me the day before and have not for a week. So I was glad to went into this firm. Not only was I ready and willing to pay for a retainer to respond to my case but they consulted me for free and had my worries at ease. They told me to wait a week if the other party didn't get back to me they will set me up. They have my full faith and trust which is what I really need in a Attorney, which this law firm has provided me with. I will be using them in the future whenever I need a lawyer. If you need someone don't be afraid and go see for yourself the great experience I had with them.

Mr. Michael Gervasi represented me in a Partition, with the defendant being a family member. Most litigations involving family members can become emotional and extra contentious. Mr. Gervasi showed empathy, yet made sure that I didn’t linger in the emotion rabbit hole. The case seemed like it was never going to end and there were days I wanted to throw in the towel. The one thing that Mr. Gervasi said after excepting my case, was that no one will get everything they want, but he will ensure that his representation will strive to achieve the best outcome for me. MR. Gervasi, his colleagues and staff were professionals, courteous and respectful. Thanks to all involved!

I cannot begin to say how great this firm has been with my case. They ending up getting 10x my initial thoughts on what I might get. Extremely professional throughout and just handled everything the way you would want a law firm to act on your behalf. Even came to my home and the hospital when I was in for a procedure to get documents signed to help with my case. Would not hesitate recommending them to anyone needing a good law firm to protect your rights and get what you deserve!

He was always available even after hours or on weekends and explained how the medical was going to be paid, how the claim against the car that hit me was filed, and the limits of that policy . He meticulously explained what supplemental under insurance was and how it worked. Needless to say, my case was settled with the full limits of the policies. I highly recommend this firm.

I cannot recommend Jon Ryan D’Agostino and his team enough! I experienced a traumatic accident where I tore ligaments and nerves in my right hand due to a local establishment's negligence. As a right-handed film and video editor based in NYC, this injury was devastating—not only to my career but also to my livelihood. I faced months of lost wages and the heartbreaking uncertainty of whether I’d be able to edit again. To make matters even more stressful, I’m a single parent with a teenage daughter who’s preparing for college. The stakes couldn’t have been higher. Thanks to Jon Ryan D’Agostino’s exceptional legal expertise, we won the case. His dedication, professionalism, and understanding of my situation gave me hope during a very dark time. I’m thrilled to share that I’m back to editing again and can now focus on the future with confidence. Choosing D’Agostino and Associates was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

I retained this firm after I was in a car accident. I suffered a shoulder injury and I was very nervous. Mr. Casella was able to have all my medical bills paid for by the insurance company and got most of my salary reimbursed. After a few months, I am on the road to recovery and Mr Casella got me a very nice settlement. Along the way he answered all of my questions. He even checked in on me to see how I was doing. He is a great attorney and a very nice person.

So I am a recurring client of this firm. I first retained Keith Casella for a personal injury matter a few years back. While other attorneys told me I had a no case, Keith Casella was able to resolve my matter lucratively although I did not have "major injuries". I liked his demeanor and the fact that he was responsive to me despite how silly my questions were. Fast forward to now, I have since retained mr. Casella for my divorce which was painful but my lawyer got it done for me. This law firm is my go to firm for questions and/or referrals. They take your calls and answer questions without obligation.

I appointed Ms. Anna Goldman through Kasuri Law for a landlord-tenant case. She is a horrible lawyer, who never communicated with me regarding my case. She never barely responded to my emails and calls. Not only that, she didn't even inform me about the court date. I called Kasuri law and informed the office and her that I have a court date in 4 days which I found through the civil court website. This was not enough, she called me exactly two days before the court date just to let me know that she will not represent me. And she didn't. Kasuri law is equally bad. Ms. Sunny, the office assistant is extremely rude. I wasted my money on them. Extremely unethical, unprofessional lawyer, and the law firm to which she is attached. I would never recommend this lawyer. Please do not waste your time and money on her.

Mr. Borrell handled my Condo purchase contract. I paid a down payment to the seller lawyer. The down payment was restituted back in a check that was mailed to Mr Borrel office. Mr. Borrell intended to directly deduct the fees he claimed are due to him. He wanted to make me sign the check so he can put it in his trust. I did not sign the check. He bullied me in his office saying;” I am complaining about everybody and they will fire me”. He was referring to my employer. His office failed to represent me in a criminal matter, therefore I lost my job and could not complete the purchase of the Condo. Mr Borrel and his office offered a poor legal advice and service to me despite the high fees they were charging.

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:

  1. What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award.
  3. 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.
  4. How often do you take cases to trial?
    Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
