HIGHLY RECOMMEND LAW FIRM!!!!
First off, I would love to start off by saying this, Bal THANK YOUUUU; “my Angel on Earth” your expertise and clear guidance were invaluable during such a challenging time for me.
Your professionalism and prompt attention to detail greatly relieved my concerns, “during my trial” and, I will be forever grateful & thankful for that.
Secondly, this is for anyone, like me…. “Being FALSELY ACCUSED OF SOMETHING THAT YOU know YOU DID NOT DO!!!”
And, if you want your story told, and voice to be heard, don’t hesitate to call Baltazar (Bal) Rubio.
It was a phone call that has CHANGED MY LIFE, and he can help CHANGE yours, too!!
I was facing several serious criminal charges and felt completely lost, but Baltazar Rubio (Bal) was a true lifesaver. Mr Rubio “without a doubt” is an “EXCEPTIONAL CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY!!” PERIOD!!!!
He listened intently to my concerns, thoroughly explained every step of the process, and fought tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome for my case!!!
And… that was to “CLEAR my NAME” from a crime that I did NOT commit!!
His expertise in the courtroom was evident, and he always kept me informed and reassured throughout the process. I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone needing a dedicated and skilled criminal defense attorney.
It was Bal, who finally did it, he helped me put an END to this endless NIGHTMARE of mine on “Jan 16th 2025” (after, 3 long SCARY exhausting days, in court) that I’ve been dealing with, since Nov 2022.
With ALL 5 CHARGES against me, coming back as “NOT GUILTY!!” ; -D
I can now MOVE ON, and LIVE FREELY, without worrying!!!!
BALTAZAR (Bal) RUBIO LITERALLY KICKS BUTT IN THE COURTROOM ;-)

I cannot say enough good things about the experience I had with The Barrist Firm! From the very beginning of the process, Adam made me feel so comfortable and confident in him and his ability. I would only have to pay his firm if I won my case, which meant they were confident we would win, and there was no risk or up front costs for me. I’m so glad I chose this firm to take on my case. Adam is VERY good at what he does and was a pleasure to work with, very responsive, very reassuring when I needed it. Again, I cannot say enough good things about this firm and my experience with them!

Mark has represented our family on a few occasions. Most recently, Mark is handling my mother's estate. What I like the most about Mark and the Barnard, Mezzanotte, Pinnie and Seelaus law firm is the kind of personal service you receive. This is not your typical law firm. The attorneys are kind, thoughtful, experienced, and well respected in their field and the community. You find outstanding attorneys who charge fair and reasonable prices for reliable representation. Mark and his legal team also handled my uncle's estate and the entire process was explained to me clearly and I was kept in the loop through the entire process. We will be using Mark and his team to handle our estate planning needs as well. I would highly recommend Mark Pinnie and his firm, Barnard, Mezzanotte, Pinnie and Seelaus, to anyone seeking great attorneys who truly care about their clients.

John Neumann Hickey, Esq. has my vote for being the number 1 defense attorney in Delaware County, PA! John has the knowledge, experience education, and background to defend your case, especially in the Delaware County Justice Court System! I was very lucky to have found him through a recommendation from an attorney friend and will forever be grateful for his outstanding legal services! I never realized how complicated, costly and time consuming the legal system can be; this was my first time I was charged and arrested for any criminal matter. Without John Neumann Hickey, Esq., by my side defending me, I do not believe I would have been found NOT GUILTY of all the felony charges I was facing! FYI He is a no-nonsense attorney and I assure you, John Neumann Hickey, Esq., is worth every penny if you decide you want to hire the best attorney around in Delaware County, PA to defend your legal case!

I cannot recommend Matt Bilker and his paralegal Missy Watters highly enough. They recently helped me settle a motor vehicle accident case involving a drunk driver, and their support and expertise throughout the process were exceptional.
Matt was highly communicative, empathetic, and an incredibly skilled attorney. He was always approachable, easy to talk to, and genuinely cared about my case. It was clear that he is deeply passionate about his work and a remarkably strong advocate for his clients.
Missy was equally outstanding—professional, attentive, and supportive, making every step of the process seamless. Together, they made a challenging situation much easier to navigate.
If you’re looking for a lawyer who truly goes above and beyond for their clients, Matt Bilker is the one to call.

Matt Bilker and Missy Watters were great at handling my case. It was a difficult, and frustrating case, however, Matt did not give up in obtaining a settlement. The attention and effort of this team is to be acknowledged and commended. I would highly recommend Matt Bilker and would not hesitate to use him again if needed.

What more could we ask for? Halligan & Keaton handled our wills, living wills, and powers of attorney. I felt comfortable to ask questions but that was barely necessary since everything was explained clearly in language easy to understand. We felt we were in good hands and could not be happier that we chose Halligan& Keaton and Mr. Halligan in particular to take care of all our needs.

Patrick called me and wanted to represent me in my worker’s compensation case. He said I had a great case. Most of the work wAs done by Laura, his associate. She wears very nice. The first inkling that he was lacking was that he forgot to obtain a court reporter for my deposition with the insurance company’s lawyer. Mr Hickey sent me to a “pill mill” for treatment and therapy for a rotator cuff tear. Medical care was poor and caused my pain to increase due to their failure to diagnose a compression fracture in my thoracic spine. After 6 months Mr. Hickey said we had to settle and the most he could get me was $10,000.

Hired Ms. McFadden on a recommendation of a close friend after I was rear-ended last year and she did a great job closing my case quickly and getting me my settlement!

Despite being a customer (client) this lawyer did every thing to their own agenda, despite the consequence to me, the client. I was even threatened with court action.

and seemed knowledgeable when there was $ to be had. NOT recommended.

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:
-
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. -
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. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes. -
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. -
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. -
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.
