The services received from Audra Mauner, Erica Markowitz, and lead para legal Courtney Schwartz were professional, prompt and courteous. Their hard work shepherded a complicated real estate deal through many months with a successful resolution. Phone calls were returned in a timely manner and issues resolved to both parties satisfaction. I would definitely use them again.

19 Aug, 2024 by Christopher

I was recommended by a friend who was represented by Sharmine Persaud in regards to his SSD case. My wife and I met with Sharmine and right away I knew she was the right lawyer for me due to her experience, knowledge and compassion. Needless to say she won my SSD case using her vast knowledge of the SSD laws and regulations. Sharmine was always a pleasure to work with as well as her very professional staff (Omaira was always a great help in all regards). I will recommend Sharmine Persaud Law to anyone I know.

We have been a client of Sharmine Persaud for over 10 years and would highly recommended her.

Todd A .Morth does an amazing job, he will be there all the way start to finish and always responds back quickly with any questions you may have. absolutely recommend him

19 Jun, 2024 by Judy

Five stars - why? Because they communicate with you - they do not leave you questioning and wondering what is happening with your case. The law firm of Steve Foley has been kind and understanding since the first day I contacted them! Yes, my case is still ongoing - but they did not get in a rush and took time to fully understand the injuries sustained and the impact the accident had on my life. They are a wonderful firm, they have understanding and professional staff, and I gladly give them a five star rating! Miss Judy Wroda

Having the help of this law firm certainly helped to take the stress off of me to deal with the horrible car insurance. They tried to pay pennies when their client struck my car while I was in it. Steve Foley Law Firm fought hard for me. They always made sure I was aware of what was being done and they explained clearly everything including my options. Any questions I had they made themselves available to answer and put my mind at ease. I would recommend their services.

My experience with Beck law turned out to be extremely positive and productive. Not having any interest in dealing with a lot of legal nonsense, I was continually relieved to be in the hands of such a competent and considerate staff. Throughout the entire process I was made to feel as though I was in control of my situation being fully informed of the proceedings at all times. Beck Law handled my situation far better than anticipated all the way to an outcome better than expected. I am very grateful for having called Beck Law, as it has absolutely been one of my very best decisions. As I am in the building industry, I have already recommended Beck Law and will continue to do so. Thank you, Boris et al.

They helped me navigate one of the most difficult times in my life with compassion, professionalism, and expertise. The attorney team was incredibly knowledgeable and always available to answer my questions. They fought tirelessly to protect my best interests and those of my children. In the end, both of us were happy with the judgment and my ex-wife understanding helped us bring this custody case to a satisfactory manner. Thank you for your outstanding service.

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional legal representation provided by Togut, Segal & Segal LLP during our recent custody case with Celsius Network. Bryan M. Kotliar and Kyle Ortiz, the lawyers overseeing our case, demonstrated utmost professionalism and dedication. Their strategic approach and effective communication, including numerous Zoom meetings and timely update emails, greatly contributed to the successful resolution of our case. I especially appreciate their willingness to address unique issues by accepting individual phone consultations. The court's decision in favor of our case and the subsequent award of our custody assets have brought considerable relief. Despite the financial challenges associated with the bankruptcy process, the support and expertise provided by Togut, Segal & Segal LLP significantly eased the burden. I couldn't be happier with the level of service and communication throughout this challenging period. Please extend my gratitude to Bryan M. Kotliar and Kyle Ortiz for their outstanding efforts.

16 Apr, 2024 by Merrilly noeth

8 years ago, I'd had multiple surgeries & just managed to pay for my mom's Alzheimer's care when she died. I was totally broke. Couldn't work. Barely surviving. My debts happened before any of this. I contacted debtors to workout a reasonable way to go - no good. Then I came to you. Almost 8 years to the day back from today I had no more debt. Since then, while I have health challenges & can't work, I have found a pretty wonderful way to live. I made it 6 years paying cash only, then started to build credit again, and now my rating is around 700. In 2 years the bankruptcy will be off my credit record & it will go higher. Without your services, I wouldn't have had a chance in hell. Yes, it was definitely a new beginning. I may be 79, but I'm 79 going on 50!

I was referred to attorney Hardaway by a few MBA school classmates that had several good experiences working with attorney Hardaway. He was successful handling high stakes litigation and transactions. Johnathon is a genius, the most intelligent and strategic thinking person I have ever met. At our first meeting he listened patiently, thereafter he outlined a six-month plan to resolve how best to negotiate and sell my corporation and the commercial property it sits on at or above my desired price. Then he delivered methodically. When there were unforeseen problems he resolved them quickly. I recommend Johnathon Hardaway to anyone seeking a great business lawyer and strategic thinker.

Johnathon is simply the best! He is diligent, intelligent, and prompt. Every time I had to go to court, Johnathon was there by the time I arrived. I won my case! I am very satisfied and would highly recommend Johnathon.

I hired attorney Johnathon Hardaway to negotiate a $11 million restricted unit agreement. He did an excellent job. Thanks to his understanding of the law and "I am only asking for what is fair" negotiating style, I got a contract that far exceeded my expectations. He accurately anticipated the other sides moves. I recommend attorney Hardaway to anyone seeking an attorney.

Peter Romero is an excellent Attorney. He really listened to me . My case was emotionally draining to discuss but he provided me not only with the emotional support but with the confidence I lacked to stand up for my rights. His hard work and dedication to his practice showed through Our mutual respect for one another and my confidence in him sealed the deal. Stress free! I was so worried put he reassured me and predicted the outcome successfully.

The lawyers I have dealt with in the past, have left me with no confidence or security. Mr. Peter Romero was very knowledgeable assertive and proactive.

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.

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.
