I was extremely fortunate to be represented by Attorney Sandra Neuman. Attorney Neuman was truly phenomenal during the entire legal process. Her determination, dedication, mindfulness, communication, and guidance went beyond my expectations. I always felt very supported and confident in Attorney Neuman’s abilities. I will be eternally grateful to her for support, guidance, and genuine concern for my well-being. Because of her diligence and expertise, I received a favorable outcome with my case. I highly recommend her to anyone needing legal representation.

I met Matthew Kikta at Julian Grey Associates in 2016 when he put together an Asset Protection Trust and associated documents (POA, Last Will & Testament, etc.) for my elderly parents. Matthew is very knowledgeable and professional. When my parents passed in 2022, he helped me by submitting the Inheritance Tax return to the state. Matthew always responded quickly to any emails I sent to him (questions I had regarding how to handle things after my parents passed). I strongly recommend Matthew to handle any needs associated with Elder Law.

After experiencing an awful car accident and overwhelmed with all that comes next, I can honestly say that I would not trust anyone else, other than Chad and his amazing team (especially Viviana) at Rankin and Gregory. They broke every step down into digestible pieces- were kind, professional, compassionate, timely, caring, and understanding. They took the time to make sure they had all of the pieces, and I was able to really focus on recovery while they focused on all of the legal pieces. I am so thankful and grateful for their hard work, and positive outcome to my case. Highly (and that is an understatement) recommend this firm. 10/10.

Don't hang up on me when I'm trying to get information. I barely heard what you were saying. That was pretty rude.
Edit. They called back and apologized immediately. I'll update my rating after speaking with the team later this afternoon. First impressions matter, but I'm willing to give a second chance.
Edit 2: They referred me to a trusted colleague of theirs at another firm. He was friendly, courteous and answered all my questions with patience.
Although I didn't actually deal with this firm directly when my case was going on, they did their best to provide me with alternative resources. That was enough for me to change my rating. I'm not heartless. :)

I had an amazing experience with Shrager Attorneys. The whole process was super smooth, and the communication was top-tier. Lyle and Frankie were both incredible—they really had my back every step of the way. Even when I slipped up on my end, Frankie made sure everything stayed on track. I felt completely supported throughout, and I’d 100% recommend them to anyone. If I ever needed legal help again, I wouldn’t hesitate to come back. Thank you guys again!

I sat in jail with a bond set 200k for simple and 5 k for DUI (3) assault and intimidating witness, from a known abusive ex. Drug dealer. A police officer I sued a year prior finally pulls me over in another jurisdiction under no legal way no legal reason to pull me over. He stated that my back window was covered with a plastic he couldn't see through which was one that I bought at AutoZone and this was in Westmoreland county he then said he traveled me across the bridge for 4/10 of a mile to clock me to make to see if I was speeding I suppose he came to the conclusion I was going 34 in a 25 which would be impossible to prove because there wasn't enough space for him to actually properly conduct that speed check and that was established in the courtroom in front of the judge and the judge still allowed this man to leave the courtroom lying and I know courts got a lot to lie about but if I'm innocent until proven guilty nah. in a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee . Judge mears's Office Mike warrick and Ferrell h okun and Weaver. Basically ruined me

I used this firm a while ago for a car wreck and thet got me a great settlement. Recently I used them for a neck injury and they got me 1/10 of what I should have got. I was extremely disappointed and upset. I had to call numerous times to remind them I was a client and was waiting. I talked to some other firms after I received my settlement and they told me they could have gotten me a lot more money. I would rather use Edgar Snyder than these guys again what an insult the amount of money I got for a neck injury. These guys are a joke now.

I was hit by a car on November 16, 2023, and it’s been a long road to recovery. Through a friend, I was recommended to Brendan Lupetin, Greg Unatin, and their associate Garrett Trettel. They were there for me every step of the way, guiding me when I didn’t know what to do and answering my questions pretty much anytime—day or night. They worked hard to get me the best results possible and even reduced some of their fees to help me. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else.

3 years ago my son and I were involved in a car accident. My son’s grandfather referred me to Lupetin & Unatin for representation for the accident. His referral came highly regarded due to him having a case where he was sued Duquesne Light for damages to his property and he won. So needless to say, I went with his recommendation.
Regarding my own case, the representation I received from Lupetin & Unatin was superb. I filed my lawsuit at the beginning of 2022 and they diligently gathered all the information needed to settle the case for me and my son. It took some time, but the end of 2024, they were able to get us a reasonable settlement and they only charged 25%. Garrett Trettel was representing us and he treated our case with the utmost importance and urgency, being very transparent of the necessary steps that had to be taken along the way in order for us to cross the finish line.
I can honestly say I am pleased and satisfied with the service I received from this law firm. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again in the future.

She was always available to answer my questions, no matter how small, and made sure I felt informed and confident every step of the way. Her expertise and diligent approach were evident in her handling of my legal matters, leading to a favorable outcome that exceeded my expectations. Sandra’s genuine dedication to her clients’ best interests not only stands out in her legal work but also in the compassionate way she interacts with her clients. I would highly recommend Sandra to anyone in need of a lawyer who is not only highly skilled but also truly cares about making a positive difference in her client’s lives.

I was always treated with respect and never felt that I was "just a number". Because of my circumstances, the car accident left me in a financial hardship. I needed things to happen quickly without settling for less than I deserved.
The staff at HHR were very much on top of things and Atty. Crosby never made me doubt that he was working for ME. Everyone was very professional.
In the end, I received a settlement that I was MORE than happy with and highly recommend HHR, Atty. Crosby and their staff. Thank you for taking care of me :)

We are writing this letter to tell you how pleased we are with the selection of HHR as the law firm representing Ina Alessi. Throughout her hospital stay, rehabilitation, physical therapy, and recovery both Kate Kuhns and Attorney Matt Crosby guided her through this arduous process.
Their assistance, constant explanations, updates, and handling of negotiations was courteous and professional at all times. Questions were answered promptly and clearly. Each step of the negotiating process was explained including the possibility of further legal action and trial.
This was a very trying time in Ina’s life. Your email and phone contact with her brother-in-law Giles Couch was an enormous assistance to her cause.
Again, we wish to thank you and to tell you that Ina is completely satisfied with the outcome and settlement. Hopefully, we will not experience a similar accident. However, we will not hesitate to recommend HHR to others. Attorney Crosby and Ms. Kuhns were always kind, courteous, and helpful. Do not hesitate to use this letter as you address other clients and potential clients.
Sincerely yours,
Giles W. C., Jr.

You don’t have to go far to look for an Injury Lawyer, Jerry Knafo is the one! You can trust him and be assured that he will leave no stone unturned to get the compensation you deserve.

My wife and I have been working with Attorney Hollawell over the last two years since I was rear-ended in a car accident. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for an attorney! All of our interactions were positive and professional. John is an extremely knowledgable and experienced attorney. He knows the Lehigh Valley Healthcare systems and was not only able to offer sound legal advice, he also gave me recommendations of doctors for my medical care. John was fully invested in my case and I felt he truly valued my health and recovery during the entire process. John was always available to discuss the case, keep us updated on any progress and answer any questions we had. He promptly returned our calls. This greatly helped to reduce my levels of stress because I always felt that John was thinking about my situation and was diligently working toward a result. John made it clear from the very beginning that I was part of all decisions related to my case and he consistently did a wonderful job of explaining all of my options at each point of the process. This all led to a fair and favorable outcome for which I have Attorney Hollawell to thank. This was the first time I ever had to go through something like this and having John as my attorney made a difficult situation more manageable and less overwhelming. Again, I would highly recommend Attorney Hollawell to any person in need of outstanding legal representation.

I recently had the pleasure of working with John W. Hollawell and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish his team was incredibly professional, compassionate, and helpful. After experiencing a difficult situation, I reached out to John for help and he immediately put me at ease. John W. Hollawell took the time to listen to my concerns and was very patient in explaining the legal process and what I could expect.Throughout the entire process, Barbara kept me informed and updated on the status of my case. They were always available to answer any questions I had and provided me with the support and guidance I needed to make informed decisions.Thanks to their hard work and dedication, I was ultimately compensated for my losses. I am so grateful for their help and could not have achieved such a successful outcome without them.

John, was as good as could possibly be from start to finish with my claim against the tractor trailer that crashed into my car.
I had a severe concussion, requiring months of PT.
But I am not a surgical candidate & have to live with neck/shoulder issues.
John was able to get their insurance company to double the offer, which matched the very high end of what we thought we might get.
Every step of the way John & his team explained the process & clearly he's as knowledgeable & as experienced as you would want.
I would recommend John without any hesitation!

I can’t say enough great things about Echard Marquette Law Firm! I hired them to assist me after an auto accident, and the entire experience was beyond exceptional. Paul was absolutely amazing—he kept in constant contact, answered all my questions thoroughly, and made me feel confident every step of the way. Heather went above and beyond by personally delivering my settlement to my home after I had surgery and couldn’t drive to pick it up. That level of care and thoughtfulness is rare to find. The team at Echard Marquette truly cares about their clients, and their professionalism is unmatched. Highly recommend to anyone in need of expert, compassionate representation!

I found Dana through AVVO. Not only is Dana a great lawyer, she’s straight to the point and upfront on her opinion and doesn’t beat around the bush. Dana and her team have been great. Every time I reached out to Dana, whether it be email or phone, if Dana couldn’t call me back, one of her amazing staff members did. She has been on top of every detail in my case and no matter the challenges are set against us due to my past medical history, Dana is fighting hard to prove my past medical history shouldn’t make it ok for those who caused my injuries to not pay for their negligence. She’s a woman who stands strong for her clients.

My accident case isn’t exactly cut & dry. There are many intricate details & things that may or may not apply that heavily impacted the value on my case. From the moment I hired Schatz & Steinberg firm & my case was given to Dana Weitz, this very traumatic & difficult time has been a breeze! First I’d like to say that I received support on a very personal level which was a great help. Anytime that I had a problem & sometimes it wasn’t case related…They were there to help! More importantly, Dana has been so meticulous going over every fine detail, recognizing issues that could’ve been detrimental & went above and beyond IMMEDIATELY & fixing them! Not only that, my phone calls & emails are always answered fairly quickly, and I’m not treated just as a client, but as a friend! This firm has helped, supported, and guided me through a time where I was confused, injured, upset & not knowing where to turn. They’ve held my hand the entire way! I am more than satisfied with the outcome, and would highly recommend Dana to anyone who has found themselves in a position where you’re injured and need an attorney. Rest assured she will take very good care of you!

My wife and I were hit by another driver with the same insurance company. I did everything they asked and almost 2 years after my accident the insurance company still had not settled my claim.
I contacted Mayerson Law and Ben took over from there. He and his team quickly got up to speed on my claim, injury reports, possible medical liens, and started working for a resolution. It was an unusual claim with many moving pieces and injured people.
He not only resolved the claim with all parties quickly, he got me a settlement for above and beyond what I thought possible.
I would highly recommend Ben Mayerson and Mayerson Law!

I had the pleasure of having Ben work two separate cases for me in which he was exceedingly successful in both.
Ben has an incredible combination of intelligent determination and patient, kind customer relations.
In our first case, I had suffered a motorcycle accident that he was able to compensate me for, and the second was a bicycle crash that he, again, demonstrated determined success.
I had no experience in law and he was extremely patient with my ignorance, willing to explain to me in terms I could understand without belittling me.
In the second case, as I had already worked with him through one, he volunteered his service as he had an incredible interest in the case at hand. He offered to take on this mission with steadfast determination and proved the master of his skill once again.
I would gladly recommend Ben Mayerson to anyone who inquires about needing an injury lawyer.
Good Job!!

I contacted this firm after I was in a car accident where an uninsured driver ran thru a red light and crashed into my car and my insurance company said " oops, too bad, nothing we can do you had the wrong type of insurance coverave" this firm was able to help me get money from my insurance company to replace my totaled car and monies to pay for my medical procedures.. If it wasn't for this company I would not have been able to pay for medical attention. I would not have been able to purchase a car to continue getting to work. This firm kept me in the loop with what was going on 100% of the time. Informed me of all of my options and even gave me advice as to what type of coverage all drivers should have to protect them. Thanks guys shout out to Coleen

Attorney Shaughnessy is a terrific lawyer! I hired him in 2007 to help me with a medical malpractice case. Other lawyers turned down my case, but after carefully examining the history, Ed decided to take my case. We won our case initially in court, but the defendant appealed the decision. After six years and several appeals, we won. Our winning is due to Ed's persistence, knowledge, and experience. I recommend Attorney Ed Shaughnessy to anyone who is in need of an attorney. He is professional, compassionate and honest. I am glad to have had Ed on my side!

Attorney Shaughnessy handled a complex law suit against my former employer. His ability to listen and quickly identify the salient points was excellent, as was his ability to clearly communicate the legal position and options. Ultimately, we were successful in settling the suit due to Attorney Shaughnessy's analysis of their responses and motions, strategic filing of motions, and communication and negotiating with their attorney, who happened to be from a very large Philadelphia law firm.
I will be sure to hire Attorney Shaughnessy for any of my legal needs in the future.

While writing my and wife's will Mr. Shaughnessy noticed that I had supplied incorrect information, information that I did not think critical to our estate. Mr. Shaughnessy explained that this certain information was indeed critical and could cause severe problems. We could not thank him enough.
Since he is the sole attorney his schedule is almost always filled, but no matter how busy he is he returns our phone calls within an hour (we have heard the same from other of his clients as well). Intelligent, patient, Mr. Shaughnessy is just about the best lawyer you could ask for. Any friends we hear needing legal help we recommend him.

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.
