I worked with Attorney Phyllis MacCutcheon during one of the most challenging periods of my life—a high-conflict divorce. From the outset, she exhibited exceptional professionalism and strategic expertise, skillfully navigating the complexities of my case with clarity and confidence while ensuring I was fully informed at every step of the process.
Her office administrator, Briana, was equally remarkable—organized, responsive, and always willing to go above and beyond to keep everything running smoothly. Their collaboration provided a seamless and reassuring experience during a very difficult time.
Thanks to Attorney Phyllis’s expert guidance and Briana’s steadfast support, I achieved many critical outcomes that safeguarded my rights as a father and allowed me to move forward with stability, confidence, and dignity for both myself and my children.

My current attorney is Jenna Hyler. She's extremely competent of family law and very responsive.
She will let you know what will fly in court and what won't. You won't be left out in the dark about what's going on in your case if you retain her services.
She's currently helping me try to gain custody of my daughter and I feel a lot better having her on my side.
I would highly recommend her if you're a father in a custody/divorce case and want an attorney who cares and who is straight-forward and honest with you.
She discloses information that the average person would not think of, nor are they aware of.
Highly recommended!

Paul spent close to an hour reviewing my case with me. He followed up the next day after reading the information I sent him. He didn't have the bandwidth to accept my case at that time but he went out of his way to get me a strong referral. He wanted to make sure I had representation. He also offered to consult with my new attorney on my case. If you want a sincere, smart and committed attorney, Paul is your guy. Think no further and hire him.

I have worked with Paul Levin’s office on numerous occasions for litigation purposes. I retained Paul’s firm to work on several workers compensation claims and personal injury claims resulting from an at fault driver’s negligence. Paul and his staff assisted me in every step of the way from the day of a major motor vehicle accident, through the multiple surgeries, into therapy and post therapy. Paul and his staff are extremely compassionate, patient, and understanding with each case they work. I have known Paul and his legal team for well over 15 years now and continue to use his legal knowledge, expertise and understanding of complex personal injury law. Paul is committed to excellence and dedication to his clients by building rapport with outstanding professionalism. I have personally referred numerous clients to his firm that emboldens his ability to fight strong and achieve great monetary gains and seek justice. His dedication to the pursuit of justice and negotiating skills is evident by the way he carries himself as an attorney and as an individual. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a fair, honest and straightforward attorney who goes after companies and individuals regardless of the roadblocks that are put in the way. Paul and his team do not let outside noise taint their ability to achieve greatness in litigation and settlement. If you are looking for muscle, walls of law, and perseverance look no further than the Law offices of Paul Levin.

Attorney Ronalter is one of the best lawyers I have ever encountered, and because I am a lawyer myself, I have encountered many. But I did not know Bill professionally until I found myself needing a personal injury attorney. I had been in a motor vehicle accident, where the nature of my injuries initially impaired my ability to see how much I needed a lawyer. By the time I hired Bill, there would be unforced errors in my case that he would have to clean up or live with. Attorney Ronalter never flinched at any of them He dealt with each one, always remaining a strong advocate for me, while never letting me lose sight of what was realistic. His high goals were mixed with just the right amount of reality. For me, this is part of what made him a great lawyer.
When it was time to discuss new events in the case, or the results of my evaluations, or what path to take next, he never made me feel rushed or as if there was a better case he could be working on, while he was working on mine. He always gave me his full attention and he always gave me full and prompt briefings on what had occurred in the most recent communication with the defendant’s carrier. And then, as if to tell me he saw me as a whole person and not as a vehicle to a pay day, he would ask about my dogs and tell me about his own.
In the handling of my case, I can’t imagine any lawyer doing more or doing better or treating me with more kindness. In the end, when he had gathered every fact and had put the events and my injuries together, he presented me with an honest assessment of what he thought and how he saw it from different angles; but then did what any good lawyer should do: he left the final decision to me. He told me he would be support me whether I chose to settle my case or let it continue into litigation. And he meant it. I chose the former, and he negotiated an excellent settlement that made sense in light of all of the facts. It felt right to me then, and it still feels right to me now.
I knew before I ever asked for an initial meeting with him, that he was a competent and experienced lawyer. Quick research can provide anyone with that information. But I could not have known through research how kind, considerate, and accessible he would be. He kept me informed every step of the way. He responded to every one of my phone calls. He answered every question with complete candor and honesty. He worked as hard on my case as anyone possibly could have and then secured the outcome I wanted. And if all that were not enough, after our professional relationship ended with the settlement of my case, Bill contacted me to send his condolences when he learned that my dog had died a month into the pandemic. That’s just who he is.
I would recommend William J. Ronalter to anyone who needs a great lawyer and who also wants his lawyer to be a good human being.

I wa a injured in a car accident on the highway on my way hone from work. I sustained a head injury changed my life. I was working as an ER nurse at the time in 2 different hospitals and loved what I did. That day changed my life. Mr. Ronalter represent me and my case. He went above and beyond. He cared about me as a person and what I lost my career, that I worked so hard to achieve. His team was incredibly and respectful in all aspect of my case. My life will never be the same but he put me in a place that I am financially stable. I could still reach out to him and his firm today and they get right back to me. I am so happy I choose him.

I originally was referred to Shipman and Goodwin by another attorney. After interviewing with Bill and Jim, I was convinced this was the legal team I wanted to take over my automobile accident lawsuit. Throughout the entire duration of my case, the attention, professionalism and care that Bill displayed with his associates, lacked in absolutely nothing short of perfection. My case was wrought with problems and issues; Shipman and Goodwin was the 4th firm I had hired, and needless to say I was very apprehensive by the time I retained their services. Bill handled very sensitive and personal information with attentive, courteous and polite methods, making me feel protected and safe, while guiding and prepping me through the legal proceedings before my trial. At no time during the period of 2 years did I ever doubt his abilities or experience in the process. I knew that if I was to get through my case with a positive outcome, that there was no better firm or set of attorneys out there to complete the job. I was impressed with both Jim and Bill's varying skills, complimenting each other within different realms of my case, with the end result of tying up any loose or unfinished details, making for a completely thorough case to be presented for a jury trial. When jury time came, they were completely ready to present the facts. I highly recommend Bill and Jim at Shipman and Goodwin, it made a truly unpleasant process comfortable and less stressful. I refer them to anyone I know needing legal assistance in brain injury, trauma or automobile accidents. I am deeply grateful for their assistance and services in my case.

As a result of injuries sustained in a car accident caused by a young man who ignored a stop sign, I sought the services of Attorney Ken Namnoun. During my initial visit with Ken, I felt very much at ease at to how this process would progress. Ken was extremely warm, but professional, and was thorough in communicating with me the status of my case on a very regular basis. He was well informed of the laws regarding every aspect of this case and had a talent for presenting complicated language very simply making it easy to understand. I am very pleased with the outcome of my case, and would recommend Attorney Namnoun without reservation.

The professionalism, articulation, courtroom demeanor, impeccable attire and efficient manner of argument that Brian Matthew Paice exhibited in defense of his client was quite impressive. His integrity is never to be doubted.
During the courtroom hearing in which I was the plaintiff, I was uncharacteristically distracted by this thought: I wish that Mr. Paice was here representing me! Perhaps I can make this happen in the future.

I had an incredible experience with Trantolo & Trantolo. From the very beginning, their team was professional, compassionate, and dedicated to my case. They kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I felt supported throughout the entire process. Attorney Angela and their team fought hard to get me the compensation I deserved, and I couldn’t be more grateful for their hard work. If you’re looking for a law firm that truly cares about its clients and delivers results, I highly recommend Trantolo & Trantolo!

Attorney Steve Katz handled a personal injury case for me that spanned over 5 1/2 years to eventually settle in my favor. The case itself was challenging and complicated and only made more so by my personal health challenges. Attorney Katz made it clear to me that my well-being was far more important than any court case, date, or award amount. He was concerned about my well-being and never pushed a settlement on to me in an effort to settle the case early. When my personal wellbeing was at stake he was always the first one to push to rescheduled a meeting or an appearance, no matter the circumstances. He was kind, caring and incredibly patient. Steve would not only call to update me on my case but often reached out to check in on me. He encouraged me at every step and made it clear that if I needed anything he would be there. He made good on every promise he ever made to me. He is not only an astounding attorney but an even better person to have in your corner. Words don’t exist that could appropriately convey my gratitude towards him. This review can only reflect a small amount of the positive things I could ever say about him. He is a great man and attorney.

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.
