Marc Dorman & Associates provided exceptional legal representation with professionalism, dedication, and expertise. From the start, they demonstrated a deep understanding of my case, offering insightful advice and clear guidance throughout the process. Special thanks to Denise for her attention to detail, proactive communication, and unwavering support. Their personalized approach truly sets them apart—they genuinely care about their clients and strive for the best possible outcomes. The entire experience was smooth, stress-free, and positive. If you're seeking expert legal guidance with a personal touch, I highly recommend Marc Dorman & Associates.

I was referred to Bart Sidle (via another attorney) to handle my estate case, as he is ethical and has a lot of experience in the area. Mr. Sidle listened to me and made me feel validated. He walked me through different steps and options, where I was completely involved in the process and decisions made. In the end, he helped bring justice. I was satisfied with the result and his work. I would use him again and would recommend.

Having to come forward as a victim of childhood sexual abuse was one of the scariest, most difficult things I have ever done…but it had to be done and when I reached out to The Yost Legal Group, Kerry was there for me in a way that made the experience more personal and meaningful than I had imagined it would be. She walked me through my past experiences at my own pace and made me feel comfortable in the present moment. If anyone has experienced trauma as a result of childhood sexual about of any kind I encourage you to reach out to The Yost Legal Group and let them know what you’re going through. Thank you Kerry.

Yost Legal Group is the best! From day one i was respected and my issues was handled with care. This whole group is the best and hands down the best legal team in the united states.I have had multiple different law groups and none have showed me the respect and care i need being an abuse survivor. I have ptsd due to the abuse and this group even worried about me as if i was a family member, i really feel like they look at their clients like their family members in need. I give praise where praise is due , so to Mr. Yost him self and especially Ms.Tonya they have a heart. I had a phone conversation with Ms. Tonya and i was in tears about the abuse and she cried with me, being very impathetic , and sensitive to me from the start.If your thinking of a good legal group this is the one trust me you won’t be disappointed. They fight like it’s the last fight, like their life depends on it. They will get you what your owed and be there for you through and through.Im amazed by this group and how organized they are as well as they energy they are the “BEST” … B. SWEENEY

I cannot thank Attorney Kiran Najeeb, from Rosenberg, Fayne & Raden, L.L.P. , enough for the incredible job she did with my first lawsuit and trial following a devastating car accident. From the very beginning, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, compassion, and expertise. Navigating through my first legal case was overwhelming, but Kiran guided me every step of the way, ensuring I understood the process and felt supported throughout. Her attention to detail and dedication to securing the best possible outcome were evident in every aspect of her work. Thanks to her, I received the justice I deserved and felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. For my second case, Eric stepped in, and he did an outstanding job handling everything with precision and care. He and Esther were very responsive, knowledgeable, and worked tirelessly to address every concern I had. Their collaborative efforts made the process seamless and stress-free for me, and I couldn’t be happier with the results they achieved. Overall, I highly recommend Kiran and Eric to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication are unmatched. Thank you all for making such a challenging time in my life much more manageable and for delivering outstanding results!

Five star service. When my seemingly typical estate probate suddenly had many twists and turns, George Meng was able to assist me immediately, beginning on a holiday weekend. I was grateful for his legal guidance on a moment's notice. Throughout the process for a number of months he deftly maneuvered through two separate estates and it was a very positive outcome with great relief for me. No matter how much advance planning you have done, it can be a very tough and trying emotional experience. George was terrific and calming; he knows his estate law and I learned early on to trust his judgment and advice. I highly recommend him and would rely on his expertise for estate and will legal advice and services.

I suffered a broken knee from a bad fall, the place I feel was a tourist attraction and did not have any caution signs or any type of warning of the area, showing it was not a step. I felt this was not right so wanted to get a lawyer involved. This happened in Washington DC/Marland area. I live in North Carolina, so I contacted a lawyer in NC, but since the accident occurred in MD, they referred to me Monty Yolles (Yolles Legal Group) in MD. I wasn't sure what would happen, Monty took my case and set the expectations from the beginning, speaking with him, I felt very comfortable because he is so down to earth. He is very knowledgeable and smart, he ensured I understood the process and when it came to settlement time, he assured me it was my decision to settle, and I respected that, and I got a great settlement!! I would recommend Monty for any of your legal needs!

I had a complex situation arise that required nothing less than a legal warrior. Searching for a good attorney that I could trust with my case caused even more stress than I had already. I knew from personal experience and from that of friends, selecting an attorney based on internet ads often leads to more expense and disappointing results. While all attorneys appear to be stellar in their ads, just not always so much when trying your case in court. Thank God for a family referral to David Ellin and his legal team!!! There was nothing like having the most prepared, knowledgeable and competent attorney by my side in court! He handled my case with a calm, pit-bull tenacity and even humor when appropriate!

My experience with Justin Lerche, Esq., over the last 2 ½ years has been outstanding. I came to Ashcraft & Gerel LLP, seeking a personal injury attorney with experience in these cases. I was impressed with Justin’s biography on the firm’s website. From the initial call with him, I felt confident in his talents to represent me after a car accident I endured on January 14, 2022, to the final settlement on December 5, 2024, achieving a favorable outcome. Throughout this exhaustive and stressful time, Justin handled my case with utmost professionalism, attention to detail, care, and effective communication, making a world of difference to me. His expertise and knowledge of personal injury law are to be commended. He always made me feel I was in great hands, reassuring me that everything would be okay from day one. He promptly answered all my questions on the case and offered solace to the emotional tears I experienced during our calls. I highly recommend Justin at Ashcraft & Gerel LLP to anyone seeking exceptional legal services and results in personal injury cases. I’m profoundly grateful and cannot thank Justin enough for his support, services, and personal injury expertise, which made this overwhelming process bearable. Laura Harmon, his Paralegal, was also courteous and prompt in her responses. Thank you both!

A Miracle in Baltimore City: Our Journey to the Right Educational Support Our story began in 2021 when we relocated from New Mexico to Baltimore City during the height of the pandemic. We were in search of educational and health services for our five-year-old daughter who is on the autism spectrum and has special needs. As physicians, balancing both the stresses of the pandemic and the complications of the educational system was a struggle. Our frustration grew when we couldn't get our daughter screened for Kindergarten through the Child Find Office, and after several disheartening interactions, we were unsure of where to turn. That's when we reached out to the office of Mark Martin and connected with the remarkable Alexandra Rosenblatt. From that moment on, things began to shift. Alexandra was a beacon throughout the long and difficult road. She attended every step of our IEP development, providing insight, advocacy, and unwavering support. Her approachable nature made it easy for us to ask questions, and she was always ready with answers and a clear plan forward. Alexandra guided us through what often felt like an impossible maze of bureaucracy. After two turbulent years, we finally achieved a breakthrough, our daughter secured placement in a non-public school that meets her unique needs, complete with a comprehensive ABA program. This was no small victory, and we know that none of this would have been possible without Alexandra’s expertise and dedication. We had been prepared to relocate to another state in search of better services, but her involvement ensured that our daughter could thrive right here in Baltimore City, where families of children with special needs face uphill battles. We are forever grateful for Alexandra's role in this miracle.

A federal indictment should be soon for this office for the amount of money stolen from their clients. This office represented my wife grandfather personal injury and wrongful death case. Peter was hired in December 1996, a year after opening this firm. My wife father died from asbestos lung cancer in 2003. Sadly, the estate only saw 100k over the past 20 year and her grandfather never received the settlement money neither did she or her grandmother who are both named in his Will. To this day, this office is sending small checks to the estate but have claimed over 40 million of dollars from the companies trust funds in relations to the injuries and deaths of their clients.

Highly Recommend Alexandra Rosenblatt for Special Needs Lawyer I highly recommend Alexandra Rosenblatt (Allie) to anyone looking for an attorney to advocate for a child with special needs. My daughter, who has a diagnosed cognitive disability requiring specialized teaching, was struggling in school. Despite the clear necessity for a specialized placement, the IEP team was refusing to place her in the appropriate school. After trying to advocate for my daughter in two different counties in Maryland for three years—with no success—I contacted Allie. From the moment she took on our case, things began to change. With Allie’s help, we were finally able to secure a placement for my daughter at a non-public school that caters to her unique needs. Allie was upfront with the facts and had a deep understanding of the challenges we were facing. She guided me through the system and helped me understand the process, especially when I felt frustrated and lost. As both a lawyer and a mother, she truly understood our situation and the urgency of our needs. She was always accessible for questions, and if she wasn't available, her assistant, Demetria, was quick to step in and schedule a meeting. I can’t express enough how grateful I am for Allie’s expertise and support. I highly recommend her and her law office to any parent navigating the complex special education system.

Very fortunate that I selected Benjamin Herbst to represent my son. We were kept informed throughout the process and ended up with far better results than expected. My advice, if you need a criminal attorney, look no further than Benjamin Herbst, he delivers.

One of the many lawyers who listen and show they will help and don't not even sand up in court for me I wish I never paid him I believe so much in him and he was the one to help me when I first talk to him I had all the faith and belief in Gerald at the end he was one of the biggest disappointment. And I should have represented my self . I wasted all my money took loans from friend ls and family to make sure he was paid don't even mention time trying to reach out I have been calling him days in and out months talk and left voicemails let message with the secretary millions of times and up to now still have got an answer he was paid all of his money and now this. You want a lawyer and have money to waste and time he is the one . I sincerely hope that no one has to be in my situation where you believe and trust Gerald I did and got screwed good luck put there if you use his service

I could not be more pleased with the services provided by Michael Morgenstern! The positive outcome of my case was due solely to his diligence and expertise. Michael was clear in explaining at the outset the difficulties of my case. I was kept informed of progress on a regular basis, often receiving answers to questions before I even asked them. Michael was both extremely professional and appropriately supportive and friendly. He seemed genuinely interested in my recovery from injuries. I highly recommend Michael Morgenstern to anyone in need of a talented and caring attorney.

A few years ago, I was the victim of a hit and run accident in Silver Spring, MD. The driver fled the scene after hitting my left leg, under the influence of opiates prescribed for his mental illness. I was left terrified and alone with an ACL tear. Luckily, I was able to memorize the driver’s license plate. Upon consultation with Mr. Morgenstern, all was well and I was told everything was rather clear cut and could be easily handled. When I met without Mr. Morgenstern in person as an African-American woman, I was suddenly met with apathy. Mr. Morgenstern stepped away from litigation of my case and gave the job to one of his partners. The man was so rude and condescending I honestly forgot his name. He looked at me with disgust during my deposition, looked at me with astonishment when I told him I was a college student on an honors scholarship, and repeatedly told me to fix my posture and general appearance during court. Without my knowledge, Morgenstern and his partner worked directly with the defendant’s lawyers to come up with a mutual process to effectively dismiss the case. I watched before my trial as Morgenstern paid more attention and care to the lawyer he was supposed to be defending me against. It was demoralizing and wholly unacceptable. During deposition the driver who hit me stated on record that he had even been in a vehicular incident similar, killing a deer. He also stated how the medicine for his bipolar disorder was recently changed. The facts lined up so clear cut in this case a circus clown who failed the BAR could have won it. There were obviously much more sinister hands at play. At the end of my case, I walked away with nothing, the driver (who was guilty of a hit and run) walked away without fault, and his insurance did not cover all of my medical bills. Mr. Morgenstern’s partner told me with a smile that I would not be able to purchase a home well into my 30s because of it. Five years later, at the age of 26, I bought a home with excellent credit and am happily married to a lawyer who’s family has been delegates and politicians in this state for generations. This experience taught me that some lawyers only care about themselves and do absolutely NOTHING to service their communities. This experience also taught me to stick to diverse litigation in all of my legal matters. If your lawyer does not understand or empathize with you as a person, they will NOT work their hardest to win your case. If you are a minority, I urge you to not waste your time or precious energy by being devalued by this law firm.

March 2014, I was hit by a D.C. Circulator bus walking in the cross walk with ample seconds to cross. Hit on my left side, I suffered multiple fractures of my left wrist and extensive bruising on my left side as well. A visitor to D.C., I returned to Chicago and one week later, Dr. Daniel Mass at the University of Chicago operated on my wrist. When the intense pain from the surgery dissipated, I went online to look for top personal injury lawyers in the D.C. area. Voted by Washingtonian Magazine as one of the best personal Injury attorneys in the city, I knew I had made the right choice after our first conversation. KInd and patient, he listened and responded in detail assuring me that my injuries were serious and deserving of compensation. Michael was thorough, extremely polite and genuinely concerned. Never too busy to answer my many questions, Michael was meticulous and accommodating. I cannot praise him enough. Not only was I compensated for my injuries, but I was treated with the utmost respect. I highly recommend Michael Morgenstern to anyone with a serious injury. Lorie Cohen Rowley

Really bad attitude. My spouse and I paid for Mr. Wood to represent him in a case during the pandemic. Mr. Wood never represented him court never showed up to any dates because of Covid there were many delays and case wasn’t presented to the courts until a year or so later. Mr. Wood got very irate and angry because he had to give back the money paid because he never represented my spouse in court. He was very pleasant when we were giving him our money but when it was time for us to get a refund he was yelling and cursing!!!!! Very rude and very prideful!!!! He knew he had no choice but to refund us and this made him Very angry!!!!!!!!! He is very sneaky and shady!!!!!

This place doesn’t want to help those in serious accidents that matter for customers. First off the receptionist in the front desk Kim is very rude, unprofessional and doesn’t like returning calls. The lawyer himself Jeffery talks a big game about helping and fighting for the clients but he doesn’t!!!! He looks for his money only for the law-firm and five other more money just for being refurred to them, more than the person that’s being handled on the case. Nobody returns calls until they get annoyed by the client/clients!! I can recall calling 4 times in one day just to hear back for information then waited additional 15 till they can to the phone. I wouldn’t recommend anyone using him for help. There’s no real justice dealing with him except laying him off and making him look good when truly he’s not!!!! And he take weeks to resolve issues and get any updates on what’s happening with the case.

Do not waste your time dealing with these people. They are only out for their selves and are very selfish. They do not care about my concerns about my recent case and aren't fighting hard enough. I rather deal with another attorney than them. Was referred by the wrong person anyway!!!!!! By the way Kim (at the front desk) is very rude and unprofessional! Donna (the other woman who works there) is the only person who is nice and seems to care. Jeff Miller (the actual attorney) is BS he will look you in the face and act he cares but really doesn't.

Brad filed for a warrant motion recall when he should not have, just to take my money. I had hire another attorney first and I should’ve stayed with him. My son was falsely accused and he was found innocent from questioning, so the detective told me that I didn’t need an attorney. I told Brad macfee and he acted like he was in shock. If I would not have said anything about a refund he would’ve kept my money. I paid him $1500. Who would allow someone to keep their money for nothing. Not me! He told me that he would give me my $1000 back. He got his secretary or whatever she is working from her home, because he has no office to send me an invoice. Saying that he charged me for my affidavits $300 for an hour. We never talked about that, if we did I would not have agreed to that is what I texted him. He never called me back and he ignore my calls after the day he told me a lie about my money. I called and texted a week later asking about my money and Liz said that she didn’t have my address, but Brad had it. Poor communication on their end. I went to her address to pick up my $825 check. I wouldn’t recommend him to a cat. This is what I text Brad and he just read my messages everytime that I text him. Coward Why are you trying to rip me off? You told me that you were sending me a check for $1,000. You did the motion like Rodney did and really should not have because you knew that it would not work. I need my money back. Not, $825.00 Brad Why didn’t you tell me that I was being charged for the affidavit statement. I would have never agreed to that. You also made it like the warrant would be recalled, because you sent the affidavits attached. You knew that it wouldn’t work, because Rodney told me that it was denied and you knew that. And turn around and misrepresent the truth and you didn’t disclose an affidavit fee. I should’ve stayed with Rodney. it was all about money. I never agreed to pay you for an affidavit. You stole my money.

Brad was the worst lawyer EVER he stole over $500 and never returned my money he played so many games and never barely called us. Not to mention it was like pulling a persons heart out with your bare hands. That’s how hard it was to get in contact. He has a iPhone so I would see him many times read my messages and keep them on read. I guess it’s no surprise we lost our case. He was the worst ever and I wouldn’t recommend him for not even the simplest case. PLEASE DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
