Kerri Cohen provided exceptional care and dedication to my case, ensuring the well-being of both myself and my child. She was consistently available to address any questions or concerns I had and went above and beyond to advocate for us. If you’re seeking a lawyer who is determined, passionate, and deeply committed to her clients, look no further. I was initially apprehensive about the consultation, as my case was particularly complex and uncommon. However, after speaking with Kerri, I immediately felt confident in her abilities. Her strength, determination, and understanding of the profound impact of domestic violence reassured me that I was in capable hands. She recognized the gravity of the situation and took swift, decisive action to protect our future. I am incredibly grateful for her unwavering support and the successful outcome of my case. Kerri Cohen is a true fighter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

If I could give zero stars I would, I don't know about the other attorneys at this law firm, Mr. David Daneman get another attorney before allowing Mr. Daneman to handle your case, all about money, very unethical, dont listen to his clients, to busy trying to get paid from everyone involved in your case. Maryland is so Corrupt, the attorneys has jumped on the band wagon. Mr. Daneman Will show you empathy and compassion don't fall for it. Make sure anything Mr. Daneman discuss with you over phone, make sure he follow up with an email of your conversation.

I had a very unfortunate traffic incident several years ago in the state of Maryland. As a result, my Pennsylvania driver’s license was suspended. I had tried several other avenues to get this resolved before finding the Killian Law Firm. Each one led to either a dead end or being treated/spoken to with such disrespect and arrogance that I had almost given up on ever getting this resolved. Then I found this wonderful firm. Not only were they willing to work with me on a payment plan, but AT NO TIME did the treat me as anything other than someone who simply needed help and guidance. Their communication was quick and thorough. And their handling of my case before the Maryland Courts was exemplary. I literally cried when they called to inform me that my matter was handled. This albatross around my neck that I had carried and been ashamed of for over 5 years was no longer a problem. I will forever be thankful to everyone in this firm, especially Allison, for their professionalism, their kindness and their knowledge.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional legal support we received from Mr. Charlie Lamari during our recent situation. His professionalism and dedication were truly outstanding. From the very beginning, Mr. Charlie Lamari demonstrated a remarkable level of patience and kindness. In times like these, it is essential to have someone who not only understands the complexities of the law but also makes you feel secure and cared for. Mr. Charlie Lamari achieved that effortlessly. His knowledge and expertise in the matter were invaluable. He took the time to educate us on all aspects of our case, ensuring that we were fully informed and comfortable with each step. This level of transparency and support made a significant difference in our experience. If anyone is looking for a lawyer, I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Charlie Lamari. His commitment to his clients and his understanding nature set him apart. It is reassuring to know that you have the right person by your side in difficult times.

She took the time to explain the legal process, answered all my questions, and kept me informed every step of the way. Thanks to her diligence and thorough preparation, we were able to achieve a favorable outcome. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a dedicated and skilled attorney who truly cares about their clients!!

I hired Matt as my attorney for a Workers Compensation case. He was knowledgeable, assertive and thorough. I never had nor was I familiar with the workers comp process. Matt made sure I understood everything every step of the way. If I had any problems with the insurance carrier, he took care of it right away and resolved it in my favor. He made sure I was treated fairly by the insurance company and maintained contact with me. I must have asked a thousand questions and he answered them all. He was upfront and honest. I found him to be the ultimate professional. If you want to have a strong advocate for your case, this is the guy you want on your side. Additionally, my settlement exceeded my expectations.

I don't think they told me the truth one time during my entire case. After my case is over and I received almost No medical treatment and almost no money, now I am talking to other attorneys. They are all telling me Seigel and Rouhana scammed me and lied to me. If only I had called other attorneys earlier, everything would be different. Do not fall for Seigel and Rouhana's lies. They want to get you as little money as possible. All of their clients say they have been taken advantage of but they don't find out until it's too late. They have a class action being filed against them soon by their former clients. They are thieves.

After battling Workers Comp for over a year I threw my hands up and said I cant do this on my own. Tracey was referred to me by a co-worker. After a personal one-on-one meeting with Tracey I knew she would be the advocate I needed to guide me through the complicated Workers Comp red tape. Tracey has been wonderful as my advocate for this case. Every time Tracey is called, usually because the Workers Comp Adjuster thinks they're God, she is right there to help me. On days when Tracey has had other obligations she will promptly return any calls that I made to her. Even after almost two years of battling Workers Comp Tracey has never given up or put me on the back burner. Tracey has been there for me through the entire process and having an advocate like her on my side eased the stress of having to deal with Workers Comp.

Mr. Solnik provided me with unprecedented support following several auto accidents. Mr. Solnik managed every aspect of my case including insurance claims, damages to my vehicle, rentals, medical coordination, and lost time and wages. The accidents were stressful and required physical therapy - it was such a relief not having to deal with lengthy phone calls with the insurance companies, medical bills, and paperwork. I appreciated Mr. Solnik’s services so I could focus on everything returning to normal. His Spanish skills also helped me clearly understand my case.

NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!! If I could give him NEGATIVE stars I would. First off, he made a mistake on my settlement and blamed the other people. Afterwards, his communication skills continued to get worse cause HE KNEW He made a mistake. I HAD TO CALL AND ASK MULTIPLE times on an update! After he failed on the first settlement, he went back for another. That failed!!! I continued to ask what is the status of my case. I continued to get strung along my Dan. In July 2024 I was told he would go to the hearing and have my settlement in a month(after I was told multiple things different times). It is now August 13th(today), I and Dan have went our separate ways. Not only was my hearing pushed back to OCTOBER.... But I had to call and find out. Went to the office ltr that day to pick up my case work. He said my girlfriend had made a threat, I asked what it was. HE WAS UNABLE TO TELL ME HOW OR WHAT THE TREAT WAS. Upon me leaving the office, DAN Wanted to say more things as he was walking away. I ASK "WOULD YOU LIKE TO STEP OUTSIDE AND TALK"(no need to walk away we when can talk face to face or step out away from others if it's something you can't or don't want to say in front of people). He got HOT & wanted to act big and bad in front of his team. But walked off saying to call the COPS. 1. Lies when he makes mistakes. 2. Tried to cover it up and blame the other party. 3. HORRIBLE & UNPROFESSIONAL communication. 4. Will catch an attitude if he is wrong and you ask questions. 5. Tries to over talk you in a conversation to get his point across to make you feel like you are wrong. 6. Acts as if you are the problem if you challenge him on his word or work.

From the moment I met Mr. Steinhardt and his partner Mr. Lieberman I felt confident that they would be able to assist me. After years of working and being productive, I suddenly found myself unable to work and disabled after a car accident. My security was threatened and I was uncertain of my future. Thanks to Mr. Steinhardt and Mr. Liberman and thier staff I won my case and have begun the process of putting my life back together. Throughout this long and arduous process my attorneys were there for me. They took my calls, answered my questions, listened to my concerns, gave me support and guided me. Though my life is different now I am grateful that they were able to win my case. I am so pleased that I was able to retain this law firm and that I especially had the opportunity to work with Mr. Liberman. He went above and beyond, often took time to respond to my calls; even at the end of the day on Friday afternoons. Thank you Mr. Steinhardt and staff. Joel

I met Chris Grace during a difficult time. My marriage was ending and I didn't know where to turn. Initially I interviewed two lawyers and was ready to choose one to represent me in my divorce, then I met Chris Grace. Immediately I knew that Chris had not only my best interest at heart but also my young children interest at heart. Chris Grace walked me though all the legal obstacles and gave me sound advice throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Chris Grace mostly because he cares, and in his caring he is thorough and will fight for your best interest. Chris Grace never once hesitated to answer any of my questions and helped me keep my home, my children and my pension.

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.

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.

It took me a bunch of phone calls and horrible consultations before finding Ms. Jones to handle my worker's compensation case. I live in a smaller town where almost all of the attorneys who will talk to me about a work comp claim will set up a meeting for a lawyer who is in Baltimore in their office. The local lawyers don't take these cases, except this firm. I think they are the only ones who actually handle the work comp cases without shopping it out to another lawyer in the city. Not only did I get local service they are good lawyers too who handle a lot of different stuff.

Our Son had two Title IX Complaints filed against him with the University of Maryland from another Student. As a Family we disagreed with the Complaint. We hired Ron and he assisted our family and represented us in the proceedings against him by the UMD Conduct Offices. The Charges filed were of a serious nature and could have lead to an expulsion from the College and would negatively effect his academic and professional career for his future. Ron planned and prepared a defense for us, prepared and filed several documents, and represented our Son in each of the investigations and hearings. His knowledge and additional interpretation of the Student Code of Conduct assisted us in having all of the charges dropped and it was determined there were no violations. We had felt our Son was treated unfairly in the investigation. Ron's diligence and pursuit of this matter along with his interpretation of the Student Conduct Rules resulted in a favorable outcome on our behalf. I would recommend Ron for any Legal Matters involved with the University of Maryland and other Legal issues needed to be resolved. His Expertise and Experience in Legal Matters provides an edge. My Family is forever grateful for his Services.

Mr. Ehlers recently obtained a settlement for me and demonstrated his resourcefulness and thorough knowledge of the law. I am very, very satisfied with the results he obtained for me. I find Mr. Ehlers to be very professional, knowledgeable, thorough, energetic and experienced. He was genuinely concerned about the best interest of me as one of his clients. He moved quickly but accurately to settle with the insurance company on my behalf. Mr. Ehlers and his Legal Assistant, Lisa Farmer, kept me well informed through both written and verbal communication. I never had to wonder about the status of my case. Mr. Ehlers even gave me his personal cell phone to use if I needed to reach him. They promptly answer telephone calls and respond to your inquiries. You can trust the Edward J.

What a Workers’ Compensation Lawyer Can Do for You

A workers’ compensation lawyer specializes in helping employees who are injured or become ill as a result of their job to receive the benefits they are entitled to under workers' compensation laws. These lawyers represent injured workers in claims for medical benefits, wage replacement, and other compensation related to workplace injuries or illnesses. They also help when claims are denied, benefits are delayed, or disputes arise with the employer or the insurance company.

Whether you've been injured on the job, developed an occupational illness, or are dealing with a denied workers' compensation claim, a workers’ compensation lawyer can help you navigate the claims process and ensure you receive the full benefits you deserve.

When Should I Hire a Workers' Compensation Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a workers' compensation lawyer in several situations, especially when complications arise during the claims process or when your rights as an injured worker are being challenged. Some common reasons to hire a workers' compensation lawyer include:

  • Claim denial: If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, a lawyer can help you appeal the decision and represent you in hearings or litigation.
  • Inadequate benefits: If the insurance company offers you a settlement that doesn’t cover your medical expenses, lost wages, or other damages, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf for a fair amount.
  • Delay in receiving benefits: If your benefits are being delayed, a lawyer can help expedite the process to ensure you receive timely compensation.
  • Permanent disability: If your injury leads to permanent disability (partial or total), a lawyer can help you navigate the more complex process of securing long-term benefits.
  • Retaliation by employer: If your employer retaliates against you for filing a workers' compensation claim (e.g., by firing or demoting you), a lawyer can protect your rights and pursue legal action.
  • Third-party liability: If a third party (e.g., a contractor or equipment manufacturer) was responsible for your injury, a lawyer can help you pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
  • Pre-existing conditions: If your employer or the insurance company claims that your injury is related to a pre-existing condition, a lawyer can help you present evidence showing that the injury was work-related.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can prevent delays, avoid mistakes, and ensure you receive all the benefits you’re entitled to under workers' compensation law.

What Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Do?

A workers' compensation lawyer provides a range of legal services to injured workers, ensuring that they receive the benefits they deserve. Their tasks often include:

  • Filing claims: Helping injured workers prepare and file their workers' compensation claims to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
  • Appealing denied claims: Representing workers whose claims have been denied and guiding them through the appeals process, including hearings and court appearances.
  • Negotiating settlements: Negotiating with insurance companies to secure fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
  • Handling disputes: Resolving disputes between the injured worker, the employer, and the insurance company regarding the amount of compensation or the nature of the injury.
  • Coordinating medical evidence: Gathering and presenting medical records, expert testimony, and other evidence to support the workers' compensation claim.
  • Advocating for benefits: Ensuring that injured workers receive all the benefits they’re entitled to, including temporary or permanent disability benefits, vocational rehabilitation, and medical treatment.
  • Filing third-party lawsuits: In cases where a third party is responsible for the injury, a workers' compensation lawyer may also pursue a personal injury lawsuit to recover additional damages.

How Are Workers’ Compensation Lawyers Paid?

Workers' compensation lawyers typically charge a contingency fee, meaning they only get paid if they successfully recover benefits for you. This fee is usually a percentage of the benefits awarded, and the specific percentage is often regulated by state law. Here's how it generally works:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer's fee is typically between 15% and 25% of the total benefits awarded to you. You don’t have to pay any upfront legal fees, and the lawyer’s fee comes out of the settlement or benefit award.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t recover any benefits for you, you generally don’t have to pay for their services.
  • State regulations on fees: Many states cap the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge, and some states require the fee to be approved by the workers' compensation board or judge.

Be sure to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a workers' compensation lawyer typically depends on the contingency fee arrangement, meaning the lawyer’s fee will be a percentage of the benefits you receive. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fees: Most workers' compensation lawyers charge between 15% and 25% of the total settlement or benefits awarded. For example, if you receive $50,000 in benefits, the lawyer’s fee would range from $7,500 to $12,500.
  • State regulations: Some states limit the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge. In these cases, the fee is usually capped, often at 20% to 25%, depending on state law.
  • Additional costs: Some lawyers may charge for out-of-pocket expenses, such as filing fees, medical records retrieval, and expert witness testimony, though these costs are typically deducted from the settlement after the case is won.

You should always ask for a clear explanation of fees and potential additional costs during your consultation so you understand the financial arrangement.

Top Questions to Ask a Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Before hiring a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with workers' compensation cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your injury is severe or the case involves disputes.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and whether there are any additional costs you need to be aware of.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes.
  4. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Find out if the lawyer has experience dealing with cases involving similar injuries or disputes, such as denied claims or permanent disability.
  5. How long will the process take?
    While it’s difficult to predict an exact timeline, the lawyer should be able to provide a general estimate based on their experience with similar cases.
  6. Will you personally handle my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case. Make sure you know who will be working on your claim.

How to Check the Credibility of a Workers' Compensation Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable workers' compensation lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing, with no disciplinary actions against them.
  • Look for workers' compensation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in workers' compensation law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s expertise and service.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience in workers' compensation cases.
  • Check for professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the Workers' Injury Law & Advocacy Group (WILG) or local bar association committees on workers' compensation can indicate the lawyer’s commitment to this area of law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most out of your first consultation with a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Accident report or incident documentation: Bring any documentation related to your workplace injury or illness, including accident reports or notifications to your employer.
  • Medical records: Provide copies of medical records, including treatment notes, doctor’s reports, and any information related to your injury or condition.
  • Employer correspondence: Bring any letters, emails, or forms related to your claim from your employer or the workers' compensation insurance company.
  • Wage and benefits information: Provide information on your wages, benefits, and any lost income due to the injury.
  • List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the process, costs, and what to expect moving forward.
  • Timeline of events: Prepare a timeline of the incident, your injury, and any medical treatment or communication with your employer and the insurance company.

Being well-prepared for your consultation will allow the lawyer to assess your case more effectively and provide you with the best possible legal advice.
