This lawyer should be ashamed of herself for what she puts her clients though. Lack of caring and honestly and is only looking for a payout, ultimately stealing from her clients. An investigation needs to be started on this so called firm 🚩🚩🚩

We have used Kaufman Law Firm due to the necessity of having to file a personal injury case in two separate instances over the years. Of course, accidents are not the type of situation anyone wants to have to deal with in the first place. But due to circumstances beyond our control, we needed the legal expertise of a law firm that would diligently pursue the case on our behalf and that is what Jeffrey Kaufman and his assistant Ana Galindo did from filing to settlement.
As noted, we had used Kaufman Law Firm several years ago in a personal injury case and based on their professionalism, persistence and willingness to keep us in the loop throughout the course of that case, hiring them again was an automatic decision for my wife and I when unfortunate circumstances again required the need for an legal expert to work to get us fair compensation.
We highly recommend Kaufman Law Firm as legal representatives that work tirelessly for their clients involved in personal injury cases.

I was in a bad car accident back in December. I got bombarded with calls and solicitations from multiple law firms wanting to take my case. This was so overwhelming in addition to
being injured from the accident. I wasn't sure which way to go and who I could trust to do right by me from a legal perspective. I was introduced to the Kaufman Law firm by a previous client while in the emergency room. I was convinced by what I heard from thier previous client and decided to give them a call. I called next day and knew they were a great fit from our first encounter! I had the pleasure of working with paralegal, Ana Galindo, and attorney, Michael Kaufman. I love how family oriented this firm is. They have families too and can easily relate to what you need. They
took time to listen to my concerns, needs, and answered any questions I had. I was not treated like another case number. I can honestly say this firm really cares abouts it's clients. Ana keep me abreast every step of the way. She walked me step by step through the process and was always available if I emailed,called, or texted. My attorney Michael Kaufman was in communication with me as well. I've heard stories of people never hearing from their attorneys directly.....well, not with this firm. Micheal Kaufman was never to busy to call me directly and he spent time checking in on me; he cared about my well being during the process. I can honestly say my mind was at ease because they handled everything for my case. Ana and Micheal Kaufman went above and beyond to make sure that I received the care I needed along with the best compensation! I definitely had a wow experience with the two of them and couldn't believe how much compensation I received, it was amazing! Let me just say that these two are a power house! I am highly satisfied with the professionalism and service they provided. This is my forever legal team if I should ever need them again!
If you want a firm that is honest, hardworking, and puts your well being first look no further; Kaufman Law is that firm. My family thanks you, Ana Galindo and attorney Michael Kaufman for everything that you did for me.
Many blessings to you both!

I just wanted to say that Scholle Law Car & Truck Accident Attorneys were amazing throughout the whole process! I got into a car accident in 2019 and I had a baby on the way so I was desperate for some sort of help. I reached out to them and they made sure everything was taken care of. I didn't have to worry about anything regarding my case. I recommend them to anyone who is in need of an attorney. Thank you again for everything.

I was in an accident in 2022 where I was originally marked at fault (this was changed to the other person being marked at fault)... I knew I had to pick a law firm that has experience going to trial. My Case Manager Diana called me like clockwork every 2 weeks.. She helped me understand my option in treatment and what is possible with treatment. She understands the process. My nephews got in an accident with a Semi and now they work with her as well. I highly recommend her as a Case Manager.

I highly recommend Brittany and the rest of her legal team (David and Courtney).. they really fight! One phone call was all it took, for Brittany to hear my case, and immediately start helping me. I didn't anticipate, the relief I would feel, by being represented by someone that had my back. To have Brittany on my side made it so I didn't have to deal with the other company directly anymore. The entire law firm took care of everything for me, EVEN MY "PROPERTY DAMAGE". Thank You!

Mr Summers is a fantastic Lawyer and very kind. He listened intently to everything I said each time we spoke. He went out of his way to meet with me, talk over the phone and email me to stay in contact with me during my case. I appreciated him talking about my case to me on my level and in terms I could understand. He always made sure I understood what was going on with my case and a time frame things would take place.
I recommend Mr Richard Summers highly!! :)

When we came to Mr. Summers another lawyer was handling my slip and fall case FOR 5 YEARS. The paperwork associated with our case was a mess and the previous atty. had given up on our case. Mr. Summers hit the ground running, was very patient with me and kept in constant contact with us like we were his only case. CASE CLOSED in about 6 months. We are very, very pleased with Mr. Summers. He is truly a friend and protector of his clients. Mr. Summers is THE PEOPLES LAWYER!

I would definitely recommend North over law group for any Auto accident. I was very skeptical at first because the insurance company denied my claim at first but once I talk with the lawyer and he assured me that I had a legitimate case and that he was willing to fight for me. I sat back and let him do his Job 😁😊 And I'm glad I did.... I never had a check this big before and I've been in several accidents in my OLD life time. Thanks Mr. Parker for assisting Me. Alex .. $$$.. Thanks again ... TB

I’m thankful to say that I had known Richard before needing his law expertise. So I can say with confidence that Richard not only stayed consistent as a person but a professional throughout my case. He handled every issue I had promptly and thoroughly, including every thought, question, and concern that arose. This was made possible as he made himself available quite literally 24/7. I wouldn’t think twice about recommending him to any person looking for law services and expertise, and you shouldn’t either.

Jeff is one of the most approachable and communicative lawyers you will ever meet. Oh, and he is an excellent lawyer to boot. He took on my case when others turned it down, then gave me and the case an abundance of attention. He makes it feel as if you are his only client, although that is definitely not the case. He handled my case like a pro, and was able to come up with a MORE than acceptable resolution. Use Jeff Grimm! Let him guide your case to victory. He is the people’s lawyer!

After shopping around for a lawyer that could help my with my contested divorce, I was referred to Eric by a friend who wished he went with him. Eric was fair and patient and willing to take the time to explain and strategize with me. I'm happy with the service he provided, and still using as a reference to lingering problems. If any of my friends find themselves in a similar situation, I will insist they consider him.

I had the pleasure of working with Eric L. Shapiro for my parenting plan case, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. What started as a straightforward situation quickly escalated into a lengthy process over two years, mainly because my daughter's mother hired her own attorney and added complications like child support adjustments.
Throughout this challenging period, Mr. Shapiro stood by my side every step of the way. He was incredibly knowledgeable about family law and always prepared, whether we were in mediation or facing court. When my daughter's mother's attorney pushed for a significant sum for their fees, Mr. Shapiro expertly navigated the legal landscape, ultimately getting everything dismissed.
His dedication and professionalism made a world of difference during a trying time. If you're looking for a family law attorney who truly cares and knows the ins and outs of the law, look no further than Eric L. Shapiro. I am incredibly grateful for his support and expertise!

I cannot recommend Jim Peterson enough for anyone going through a difficult divorce. From the very beginning, he showed a deep understanding of my situation and was incredibly strategic in his approach. His expertise and negotiation skills led to a settlement that was better than I expected, saving me significantly compared to what I was initially prepared to pay. Jim Peterson was always professional, compassionate, and attentive, making a stressful process much more manageable. If you need a divorce attorney who will truly fight for your best interests, Jim Peterson is the one to choose.

I would highly recommend Jim Peterson to anyone looking for a very knowledgeable divorce/ family law attorney. With my spouse owning an international architectural firm, I knew I had to find an attorney that had extensive experience in handling complex matters with a business. Jim was always patient in listening to my concerns and kept me updated and reassured through the entire divorce process. Jim was prepared to take the case to trial if it needed to go in that direction, but ultimately was able to work hard to get me a better settlement than had we gone to trial. Both Jim and his paralegal Megan handled my case with the upmost professionalism. Thank you Jim for everything!

Me choosing this firm to support black businesses was the worse thing I could have done. They are only active if you’re a “potential” client. Soon as you become an existing client you will barely hear from anyone. It’s the lack of communication and confidence in this firm that turned me away. I’m 9 months pregnant and have to drive 3 hours to this firm to see about a situation that was “suppose” to be mailed to me that to this day has not been resolved. I was turned around at the door stating everything was “handled” in which it has not. This is a prime example of why many chose to NOT support black owned practices or businesses. I hate to report them to the BBB (Better Business Bureau) but there is no way someone who put their trust and money into a business has to go through so many obstacles and the run around. I’m not telling anyone what to do but what I would not do is support a business who does not support you.

I am the one that wrote the review for Ken on October 23, 2017. My previous experiences with him were all positive, so I will not change what I wrote. I respected him as a lawyer and always showed him kindness. When he suffered the loss of his wife, I sent him a heartfelt letter to give him my condolences. I wanted to encourage him and tried my best to uplift his spirit. When he asked, I wrote a review for him and made it public to show him my appreciation for all that he had done for me.
After my father died in 2022, I thought Ken would be a great resource for advice. To my surprise, he said he didn't remember me, or even believe that he ever handled my case. Even though it hurt, I maintained my composure and spoke to him about my father's complex situation when he asked.
My father passed away from multi-organ failure amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic. What makes his case so complex is the inhumane treatment he received from the staff at a well-known hospital in Atlanta, GA. Sadly, Ken wasn't willing to listen to me discuss those details. His prejudice against individuals who opted not to receive vaccination led him to hang the phone up on me mid-conversation.
He gave me no opportunity to respond to his opinion. I never disrespected him in the entire conversation, but this is how he treated me. Here's what I find so sad about all this:
1. He did not witness the atrocities my mom and I witnessed.
2. He did not face the discrimination and intense hatred my mom and I faced in that hospital.
3. He rejected my story entirely and was quick to judge my father’s situation before inquiring for more information.
So, as of October 1, 2024, I cannot and will not recommend this lawyer to any family for anything because of his choice to not listen. I feel obligated to the people to update my review on this page when my views no longer align with what I wrote in 2017.

Ken and his assistant Christine were gracious, sweet and understanding of me and my case, be it small. It did take a little longer than I expected but once Christine came into the picture, things went smoothly and rather quickly. They made sure to answer any questions I had, and made sure I understood all the details of the case. Best of all, they kept me up to date with all the details regarding hospital bills, my insurance company, and what not. Overall I think they did an amazing job and I highly recommend them to everyone!!

-I am writing to express my profound dissatisfaction with the handling of my case by this office. The level of unprofessionalism I have encountered is both baffling and unacceptable. Throughout the duration of my case, I have been met with constant lies and misinformation, which has severely impacted my trust and confidence in your services.
The experience has been nothing short of horrible, and I feel compelled to share that I would never recommend your office to anyone seeking legal assistance. The lack of transparency and honesty is deeply concerning and has made an already difficult situation even more challenging.
I hope that you take this feedback seriously and make the necessary improvements to ensure that future clients do not endure the same experience.
Sincerely, Anastasia

ZERO STARS! This firm has the absolute worse communication ever! In the beginning it wasn’t that good but atleast they’d get back to me after a few calls and voice messages, now they don’t bother at all. I haven’t heard from them in months! I have to beg for case updates and it’s only gotten worse now that the case is settled. My experience has been horrible and I wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

Rob Fleming did an outstanding job representing me in a medical malpractice case. His legal mind is outstanding and his level of expertise in medical malpractice is second to none. From the moment that I went in for the first consultation to the very successful resolution of my case, Rob was amazing. He is an outstanding listener and he brilliantly navigated the legal process from start to finish for me. Rob is one of the best attorneys, if not THE BEST, in his field. The level of communication throughout the entire legal process was excellent. Each step of the process was appropriately discussed and all options were carefully detailed. His attentiveness to my phone calls and emails was excellent and always very prompt. I hope you never need representation with a malpractice issue, but if you do, your first call should be to Rob Fleming. I absolutely could not be any happier with his representation and you should consider yourself in the BEST MALPRACTICE LEGAL HANDS available in the Southeast. I wish I could give him 50 stars!

Rob Fleming took my medical malpractice case when no one else would. He believed he could help me and worked hard to do so. I received a good settlement from the insurance company due to Rob’s knowledge, experience, and hard work. He communicated well and regularly with me. I am very grateful a friend referred me to him, or I probably would have given up on my case. I consider Rob a friend after working with him for years on my complicated case. I am grateful to him and strongly recommend him.

I called in about four to five weeks ago and spoke with a Cassandra in reference to the loss of function in my great toe due to a doctors negligence. Cassandra laughed at me when I explained to her my situation, Cassandra also explained to me that it’s “all about money” when it comes to the business. A few days after I posted my review on Google Mr.Malone reached out to me condemning her actions and explaining to me how it works, and essentially it is about the money because it can cost almost 500k to get your case started. After talking with him I removed my review from google because he seemed sincere. However I just want someone to understand for me it’s the principle and not about the money. I sent all my records over to Mr.Malone around 06/04/2024 and sent an email on 06/22/2024 for an update. Mr.Malone informed me that he would look over my files and get back with me in about a week and if he couldnt help he would refer me to someone who possibly would be able to. I have not heard back, and I’m done, basically if you didn’t lose a limb your case will not be taken seriously and the doctor can do anything to you with no consequences. It’s really sad that everytime I’ve needed a workplace enviorment lawyer or a negligence lawyer this is the energy I have gotten. If you only signed up for the more lucrative cases you’re already doing it wrong. I’m just going to leave this firm to itself. I am leaving my review up and cutting contact. Hopefully I can find someone who is willing to do it for the right reasons. This has been very traumatic for me and I just want someone that is doing it for the right reasons.

What a Wrongful Death Lawyer Can Do for You
A wrongful death lawyer specializes in representing families who have lost a loved one due to the negligent, reckless, or intentional actions of another person or entity. These lawyers help families seek compensation for the emotional and financial losses associated with the untimely death of a loved one, including medical bills, funeral expenses, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering. Wrongful death claims can arise from various situations, including car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and criminal actions.
If you have lost a family member due to someone else’s wrongful actions, a wrongful death lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and pursue justice on behalf of your loved one.
When Should I Hire a Wrongful Death Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a wrongful death lawyer if a loved one has died as a result of someone else’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional harm. Some common reasons to hire a wrongful death lawyer include:
- Car accidents: If a loved one was killed in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident caused by another driver’s negligence (e.g., reckless driving, DUI, or distracted driving), a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim.
- Medical malpractice: If a loved one died due to medical negligence, such as a misdiagnosis, surgical error, or medication mistake, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue compensation from the healthcare provider.
- Workplace accidents: If your loved one died in a workplace accident or due to unsafe working conditions, you may be entitled to compensation from the employer or third parties responsible for the unsafe conditions.
- Defective products: If a defective product caused your loved one’s death, a lawyer can help you file a wrongful death claim against the manufacturer or distributor of the product.
- Criminal actions: If your loved one was the victim of a criminal act, such as homicide or assault, a wrongful death lawyer can help you pursue a civil claim for damages, even if a criminal case is also ongoing.
- Nursing home negligence: If an elderly loved one died due to neglect or abuse in a nursing home, a lawyer can help you hold the facility accountable for their wrongful actions.
Hiring a wrongful death lawyer soon after the incident ensures that important evidence is preserved and that you can meet any legal deadlines for filing a claim.
What Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Do?
A wrongful death lawyer provides a wide range of services to help families navigate the legal complexities of a wrongful death claim and seek compensation for their losses. Their responsibilities often include:
- Investigating the death: Conducting a thorough investigation of the circumstances leading to your loved one’s death, gathering evidence such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements.
- Establishing liability: Identifying who is legally responsible for your loved one’s death, whether it’s an individual, company, or government entity, and building a case showing how their negligence or wrongful actions caused the death.
- Calculating damages: Helping you determine the full extent of your financial and emotional losses, including funeral expenses, medical bills, lost income, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering.
- Filing a wrongful death claim: Preparing and filing the necessary legal documents to initiate a wrongful death lawsuit within the statute of limitations in your state.
- Negotiating settlements: Working with the responsible party’s insurance company or legal team to negotiate a fair settlement for your losses.
- Representing you in court: If a settlement cannot be reached, representing you in court by presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
- Handling legal deadlines: Ensuring that all legal filings are completed within the deadlines set by your state’s statute of limitations for wrongful death cases.
How Are Wrongful Death Lawyers Paid?
Wrongful death lawyers typically work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Here’s how it generally works:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is usually a percentage of the total settlement or damages awarded, typically ranging from 25% to 40%. You won’t have to pay any upfront fees, and the lawyer only gets paid if they successfully recover compensation for you.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer does not win or settle your case, you generally won’t owe them any legal fees.
- Case expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, you may also be responsible for reimbursing the lawyer for case-related expenses, such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs. These expenses are typically deducted from the settlement or award.
It’s essential to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to ensure you understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Wrongful Death Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a wrongful death lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee structure, meaning you only pay if the lawyer recovers compensation for you. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fee percentage: Most wrongful death lawyers charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or court award. For example, if you receive a $500,000 settlement and the lawyer’s fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $165,000, and you would keep the remaining $335,000.
- Case expenses: In addition to the lawyer’s fee, expenses such as court costs, expert witness fees, and investigation costs may be deducted from the settlement or award. These expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.
Make sure to ask your lawyer for a clear explanation of their fees and case-related expenses before proceeding with your wrongful death claim.
Top Questions to Ask a Wrongful Death Lawyer
Before hiring a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and resources to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with wrongful death cases?
Ensure the lawyer has successfully handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s medical malpractice, car accidents, or workplace deaths. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify the lawyer’s contingency fee percentage and any additional costs, such as case expenses, that you may be responsible for. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges that could affect the outcome. -
How long will the process take?
Wrongful death cases can take time to resolve, so ask how long the lawyer expects the process to last, from filing the claim to reaching a settlement or going to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court. -
What types of damages can I recover?
Ask the lawyer to explain the types of compensation you may be entitled to, such as medical bills, funeral expenses, loss of income, and emotional suffering.
How to Check the Credibility of a Wrongful Death Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable wrongful death lawyer, take the following 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 to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for wrongful death experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in wrongful death cases and have successfully handled cases like 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 professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on wrongful death cases.
- Check for certifications or memberships: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) or local bar associations can indicate the lawyer’s dedication to wrongful death and personal injury law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a wrongful death lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Death certificate: Bring a copy of your loved one’s death certificate, as this is a key document in wrongful death cases.
- Medical records: If applicable, bring your loved one’s medical records, autopsy reports, or any documentation of their medical care leading up to their death.
- Accident or incident reports: If the wrongful death resulted from an accident, bring any police reports, accident reports, or workplace incident reports.
- Financial records: Provide documentation of your loved one’s income, benefits, and financial contributions to the family to help calculate economic damages.
- Correspondence: Bring any communication you’ve had with the responsible party, their insurance company, or legal representatives.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions for the lawyer about the legal process, potential outcomes, and fees.
- Timeline of events: Be ready to provide a clear timeline of the events leading up to and following your loved one’s death.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice.
