Once Jason took over my case I immediately felt reassured and comfortable that it would work in my behalf. While most lawsuits do take a period of time to be completed, my case went reasonably quick. I strongly advise the Paris Law Group! Outstanding service, and representation.

I had a great experience working with The Paris Law Group, PC after my car accident. They made the whole process so much easier for me, explaining everything clearly and keeping me updated the whole time. The team was professional, responsive, and really seemed to care about my case. I’m really grateful for their help and would definitely recommend them to anyone needing legal support.

I recently had a consultation with Ali Shahrestani and I can't recommend him highly enough. He was incredibly thorough and took the time to explain everything in detail, clearing up so many questions I had. His professionalism, patience, and ability to break down complex legal matters made me feel confident and well-informed. I truly appreciate the time he dedicated to ensure I fully understood my options. Thank you so much, Ali Shahrestani for your outstanding service!

I was recommended to The law firm of Marc Miner and associates by another attorney after my accident. Not only did they successfully settle my case but it was done so in record time. They patiently guided me every step of the way. They accompanied me to my deposition and answered all inquiries professionally. I completely trust Marc's judgement and make him my attorney for life.

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.

I have been dealing with Greenstein and Milbaures for more than 10 years also referring them to other clients.
They are very professional and goes up and beyond to make sure their clients are satisfied, during and after.
Bart Pittari goes out of his way to make sure everything is as smooth as possible.
I would never choose another law firm.
I choose them and believe in them.
They don't even have commercials like other law firms.
They show empathy and compassion. Thats what counts.
They walk you through everything and makes you feel at ease. I am so satisfied with this law firm.

BUYER BEWARE!!!!
They've had my case for about 5 years, and in that 5 years I've heard from them only 2 or 3 times. I just read a review from Josh Gersten, posted just 3 weeks ago. I have the same problems as he has. This firm stays in contact with you for about a month. After that, you're lucky to get an update on your case once per year(and thats very generous). I've contacted them several times through their website and through email. They just ignore me, and I never get a reply back. They just introduced a new app to track your case about a year ago. I haven't had access to this Hona Client since they introduced it. I've filled out the request to be given access 2 or 3 times in the last year, and they just ignore me. The longer I let them keep my case, the more and more I see that this is one of those firms that goes for the quick payday and take on as many clients as they possibly can with the intentions of making as much money as they can with the least amount of time and effort put into your case. No wonder why they haven't made 5 minutes available to contact me with an update. If you go with this firm, do not expect to win a big settlement. Expect to win your case as quickly as possible even if it means taking a much smaller settlement so that they can pocket the money with minimal effort.
Now my case is a Social Security disability case, so their potential earnings are capped. Since they cant win much from my case, they treat me like I'm a number instead of a person. Expect the same. My guess is that they've dropped me as a client because I'm expecting updates, and those 5 minutes twice a year are more valuable than I am to them. I haven't had an update probably in 12-18 months. They just straight up ignore me, but then again my case isn't very valuable to them since its a Social Security case. Expect the same treatment that me and Josh have gotten.

I came to these people after being neglected by another firm. Promises of contact and the proper attention needed.
Things were fine for a while, they helped me have the procedures I needed.
Contact started to disappear. Lack of responses.
I find out they moved my Lawyer to Disability from Workman's Compensation.
There was zero connection to what I needed and intentions were. My messages were ignored.
I had a hearing over 6 months ago and now they send me a message that they can't get in touch with my doctor and need paperwork filled out. That I should contact my doctor.
It took 6 months of "trying" before you get in touch with someone?
I've been trying to close out my case. My former lawyer understood what I wanted. The person who was handed and did nothing with it, didn't care and was only interested in what was "best for me, and ultimately their firm"
I never got a lawyer for money, I wanted to have surgery to fix my injuries. I have not had any physical therapy for over a year. Over 6 months since I have seen my surgeon. We have closed out all the care, so why am being told not reaching maximum medical is a good thing..?
I am not getting any better, we don't need to play pretend to milk the state for more money.
Close my case... nope.. they will just waste time and do what is ultimately best for them in the end.
Stay away, they are no different then the other guys that just treat you like a peice of meat. Company is too big to give a sh/t.

I had the privilege of working with Daniel Altaras at the Derek Smith Law Group, and I cannot recommend the firm or him highly enough. From our very first meeting, Daniel demonstrated exceptional professionalism, compassion, and dedication to my case. He truly listened to me, understood the challenges I was facing, and worked to advocate on my behalf. His expertise and strategic approach gave me confidence during one of the most difficult times in my life.
Throughout the entire process, Daniel was thorough, responsive, and always made sure I was informed and supported every step of the way. Thanks to his hard work and commitment, we achieved a favorable outcome that I am deeply grateful for. If you are looking for an attorney who will fight for you with skill, care, and integrity, Daniel Altaras is the one you want by your side.
Thank you, Daniel, and the entire team at Derek Smith Law Group, for your outstanding representation and support that cannot be understated. Highly recommended.

I had the pleasure of working with Jonathan Ratchik as my attorney at KD&R, and I can’t recommend him highly enough! His expertise in personal injury law is evident, and he truly cares about helping those who have suffered due to negligence. Jonathan's dedication to his clients is inspiring, and he navigates complex legal matters with ease.
What sets Jonathan apart is his ability to communicate clearly and compassionately, making the process much less daunting. If you're in need of a personal injury attorney who will fight for your rights and provide exceptional service, look no further than Jonathan!

My successful case was like physical therapy; it was a coordinated and progressive transition from being injured to being well. Mr. Ratchik and the firm maximized my time to care for my health and minimized the hassle of dealing with bills and documents. When I had to testify, I was so thoroughly prepared that I thought the end of the proceeding was just a pause in the questioning. I learned about Mr. Ratchik through a referral. I now pass the referral onto those looking for the legal help that I received.

I can’t even begin to describe what a fantastic group of people The Perecman Firm has to offer. They have managed to find the best of the best and put them all together in this firm. They have become like family to us. They truly care about you. My husband was injured in a construction accident and after being let go by another prominent firm, The Perecman Firm took on our case and gave us peace of mind. Our attorney, Steven Dorfman, is top-notch and absolutely brilliant. Look no further!! Linda Hirschfeld keeps your case organized and flowing with perfection. So many knowledgeable professionals at this firm and you never have to worry. They will work hard for your best outcome. We love you all at Perecman and we thank you for your hard work on our case.

In the fall of 2015, I suffered a crush injury on a construction site in NYC. I was taken on by what is considered one of the top law firms in the North East. 6 months into my case, they dropped me citing the difficulty in winning my case. The Perecman Firm looked over my case and eagerly took it on. From day 1 they coordinated all of my case needs. All of my follow up doctor visits and Independent Medical Examiner appointments were over seen and documented by their group of experts. Ed Guldi walked my case through the red tape of NYS Workers Comp and Silvana Leone navigated me through the incredibly arduous path of obtaining SSDI like she wrote the code! Every T was crossed and every I was dotted!
As for case itself, Steven Dorfman nailed it… not only did he win, his filings and oral arguments resulted in the case receiving summary judgement and I never stepped foot in a courtroom! His work was so convincing and thorough that he left opposing council no alternative than to settle and he over-performed again negotiating a settlement beyond my wildest expectations!
Nobody reads law firm reviews unless they are in need of representation, I can tell you with 100% certainty that you will not regret ending your search and just contact Perecman… they without question saved my life by getting me the compensation I deserved and needed and I couldn’t be happier with what they accomplished on my family’s behalf.

My experience with Kramer, Dunleavy & Ratchik, PLLC was breathtaking. I was run over by a car in Harlem while crossing a crosswalk with the right of way. The guy driving was 100% at fault. The state bar of NY enthusiastically recommend I set up a consultation with them. So I had a 5 minute call with his paralegal, Joanne O’Connell, it was nice. She wanted me to send my neurologist medical records to review and the detailed police report. Made it happen. Then, all communication ceased. No email was replied to thereafter. The only reason I can come up with is that Kramer, Dunleavy & Ratchik genuinely believe there is no merit in finding justice for pedestrians who wrongfully get run over by a car in the state of New York left with long-term injuries.
So I found an actual attorney who got to work, now everything is good.
This concludes my final thoughts on KD&R for now. I’m extremely honored to have been in Joanne’s presence. She and KD&R are extraordinary human beings - but has no follow through and all that talk lead to nothing.
I think they’re great. Keep up the work.

I recently worked with Kerner & Kerner Law Firm on a personal injury case after a car accident. After my accident, I was overwhelmed with medical bills and insurance claims. Lawyer Kenneth and his team were incredibly supportive and guided me through every step. The team was always available to answer my questions, and they kept me updated throughout the process. Their expertise and dedication resulted in a favorable settlement. I appreciated how Lawyer Kenneth explained complex legal terms in a way I could understand and made me feel confident in our case. Thanks to their hard work, I received a settlement that covered my medical expenses and more. I highly recommend Kerner & Kerner Law Firm to anyone in need of a dedicated and knowledgeable accident law firm.”

This has to be one of the absolute worst firms in the entire city. My mother was hit by a car and in a case that should have taken months to resolve had taken over two years to settle. The communication from them was non existent, and representation was atrocious. I implore anyone who cares for their family members to look for different services than this firm. Please heed this warning as it will save you time, money and actual representation. They charged my mother 33% for absolutely nothing. No follow up, no guidance absolutely nothing. You’d have better chances representing yourself. Good luck to anyone of you who decide to deal with this horrible law firm.

My attorney, Hiba Touma, and her team were very attentive, professional and answered all of questions immediately. Even when things got stressful for me (because I was selling and buying at the same time), they calmed me down and took care of everything. I can’t thank them enough for making this process effortless! I highly recommend this firm for anyone looking for an attorney that is knowledgeable and will also treat you as a priority!

I cannot recommend Daniel highly enough. From the very first consultation, he displayed a level of expertise, compassion, and professionalism that set him apart. Navigating the complexities of a divorce can be overwhelming, but Daniel made the process manageable and even empowering.
His ability to clearly explain every step, answer all my questions with patience, and craft a strategy tailored to my unique situation was invaluable. Daniel is not only a skilled attorney but also a great listener who genuinely cares about his clients' well-being. He balanced assertiveness in negotiations with a respectful, solution-oriented approach, which led to a fair and amicable resolution for everyone involved.
If you are looking for a divorce lawyer who is knowledgeable, empathetic, and dedicated to achieving the best outcome, Daniel is the one to trust.

They are professional, just focus on their job. No dishonest advertising or behaviors. After using different lawyers for my families in the past years, NYIS is the most reliable and honest lawyer, not like some lawyers who just want to make money from you and tell you all good things.

I’m a disabled veteran who became ill by chemicals introduced to my system. This law firm must be full of clown because they don’t care about veterans at all. The AFFF lawsuit for chronic illness is exactly….. like 100% what has happened to me. They won’t take my case because I didn’t have the word “cancer’ in my diagnosis. Never mind that the military has me as 100% disabled with a full time caregiver. These guys don’t deserve what we sacrificed. I know better attorneys

At a time in our lives when we could have been left with nothing but devastation Sam and his team were like angels to my family. My dad was diagnosed with mesothelioma in 2015 and within months we were receiving money from the companies who made him sick. We were able to spend valuable time together doing things like family vacations at a time when we would have had nothing but sadness. My dad passed away this past December but thanks to Sam and his team he was able to leave us a legacy. They say money can’t buy happiness but at this point I disagree. Sam fought hard to get us what we needed to make my dads last years on earth happy ones. And for that, we are eternally grateful. -Sanchez family ♥️

My name is Timothy Ivers. I have been a client for over 2 years now. I can't say a single bad or negative thing about the great people at this law firm. Every single person here are truly amazing. They took their time with me and my family. They explained in detail the possible outcomes positive or negative. They are very considerate and trust worthy. They have kept me calm in my stressful days. Without them I don't know where me and my family would be emotionally and financially. Truly thank you guys for everything you have done for us. I would reccomend this law firm to anyone and everyone with any troubles. If I can put more then 5 stars I would but unfortunately it only goes up to 5. They are a 10 in my book.
Thank you again

I had the pleasure of having Dan Smyth work on my personal injury case. His intensive knowledge on the laws as well as the ins and outs of insurance was insightful. He was very compassionate and responded to every single question with perfect clarity. He stays in communication so that you know what is going on and will fight for you. You’re not just a case here. You’re a person and they treat you like it.

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.
