Atty. Kenlan and his entire staff were so each to work with--organized, friendly, helpful, and great communicators. Thank you all!

As an attorney with over 20 years of experience, I tapped my network to get "insider" advice for what firm to choose for a personal injury matter, and I was referred by numerous sources to Berman Simmons. From beginning to end, my experience with the firm, and particularly with lead counsel Dov Sacks, was exemplary -- including a very favorable result. For its professionalism and conscientiousness in every interaction with me, and for the excellence and effectiveness of its legal services, the firm has earned five stars in my book.

Dov Saks was so easy to deal with, his staff was always available to answer my questions. He was fair, and honest. It was a pleasure to work with him and his staff during this difficult period after my car accident.

In 2012 Berman and Simmons took on my malpractice case after I had gone through a traumatizing medical ordeal that ended in my becoming an above knee amputee. They worked diligently over the course of six plus years to get me the best ending result. Jodi Nofsinger was the main lawyer on the case along with Susan Faunce, prior to Ben Gideon joining their team. I couldn’t be happier with how things went and the entire team at Berman and Simmons, they definitely deserve a five plus star rating! Thank you all!

The thought of seeking legal advice while you are experiencing a medical crisis is completely overwhelming! Having a team that fully understands the complex process was invaluable. When you begin this journey you can not fully appreciate how important it is to have a respected Law firm that has the experience, assets and knowledge to pursue your best interest. Everyone from the receptionist/paralegals/team of lawyers truly listened to us and took time to answer all our questions with the upmost professionalism. Matt & Karen

Very human experience very personal! Also were very successful and my award for my injuries was spot on!

September 17, 2018 Client Review: Attorney James O’Connell III of Berman & Simmons While recovering from a serious accident last year involving a commercial property, I thought I might have a legal case to plead. I made some inquiries and was referred to a renowned law firm specializing in personal injury cases; I viewed several impressive attorney profiles at Berman & Simmons. In the group, James O’Connell III, had been recommended as an exceptional professional in the field. His approach to his practice appealed to me: he strives to build relationships among opposing parties and lead them to conciliatory consensus when possible, at the same time preparing for possible trial. I liked that stance. Astute and skilled, Jim O’Connell initially assessed my concerns very carefully, saw an issue of negligence, outlined probable outcomes, and then agreed to be my advocate. In the following weeks he expertly guided me through the legal steps and negotiated a successful mediation. He was at once kind, compassionate, yet incisive and forceful. Throughout the process, Jim and his two able legal assistants were consistently calm, patient, friendly, and respectful; they deftly modeled the way to conduct a flawless and humane legal process for the client. I am deeply grateful for their superior expertise, reassurance, and encouragement along the way—and for the outcome. They were each excellence in action, and together united in purpose. They were truly my team, surely one of the best in Maine!

Nice

Thorough, clear, considerate and we had a challenging yet successful case.

Attorney Silin and his staff went above and beyond in my case. They were very personal and listened to my concerns. They never gave up hope and pursued every avenue. We ended in a very favorable position for me at the end of case. I can’t thank the office enough and for me this is was a life changing experience.
