We met with Robert shortly after our automobile accident . He was very understanding to us. We had no idea what to except. He walked us though everything, and them some. He and his staff was very respectful. They truly was concerned about our health first and upmost. I cannot thank them enough for what he did for myself and my family.

Mr Patton handled our wrongful death case with efficiency and consideration. His staff was always courteous and kept us informed at all times. Juanita deserves extra praise for being very helpful!
Mr Patton actually took the time to review our case, and got us a settlement, when others were not willing to try. Highly recommended.
Highly recommended.

Unfortunately on a recent trip to Anchorage I was arrested for a DUI. I was referred to Whitney at Power and Brown. She was easy to get ahold of and she did a great job fighting for me. I could not be happier. I strongly recommend her.

My divorce was not an easy one by any means. The other party did not want to be a participate in the process that she initiated, be fair financially, and was in character throughout the two and half yr process. Veronica weeded through this from minute one.
Veronica jumped on board in my case more than halfway through the process from the recommendation of my previous attorney to get my case resolved. There is a reason he recommended her. Veronica was forceful and stern during the negotiations(mediation) with the other party and was always looking out for my best interests financially which included doing everything possible from the first day I spoke to her to avoid trial which is where my case was headed. The reason for the referral from my previous attorney.
During one of most difficult times of your life, Veronica attempted to understand everything on a personal/emotional level as well beyond the business aspect of divorce.
Veronica is extremely knowledgeable of the NJ laws of divorce which is so important. She is professional, cordial, assertive, and great at explaining things/answering questions. Veronica also will hold you accountable if she needs to which is important in this process.
The firm in Springfield is professional and welcoming; which is includes her paralegal Diana O who I would like to acknowledge as well.
In divorce, no one wins or loses. My JOD was fair and equitable at the end of the day which is what should have happened. Veronica accomplished that for me with honesty and sincerity from day one.
Five star review.

Meeting Joe, was the best thing I could have ever done for myself, after I was forever changed by the negligence of a doctor.
He made me feel at peace, with knowing that someday, justice would be served for me, and he did.
He is an attorney that has a wealth of knowledge that is amazing. He works very hard to make sure your interests are his interests. His staff is always so pleasant to talk to and work with as well.
I could continue to praise him, but there is only one thing that really matters, he is truly a phone call you should make, if you have been hurt. He will do everything he possibly can to make sure that justice will be served.

Silvia is a consummate, professional attorney for whom no case is too small. Silvia helped me to satisfactorily resolve an employment discrimination case when 2 other firms were unwilling to take my case because they didn't think it was "financially worth it for them." Silvia took the case and represented me and my interests in a thorough and assertive fashion and was able to secure for me a settlement that was ameniable to both sides. I would not hesitate to recommend Silvia to anyone who needs representation and wants an honest, forthright, professional and humane attorney who will have your best interests in mind at all times.
Thank you Sylvia!!!!

The attorneys at Lawrence and Gerges are true professionals in every sense of the word. When I first reached out to their firm with an inquiry about a possible case, Silvia responded with more information and support than I could have imagined. Her level of compassion was a breath of fresh air. I never felt rushed; she always kept me well informed, not only on the progress, but also on her strategy. Every aspect of my case was clearly explained to me. Whenever I had a question, my phone calls were returned immediately.
Silvia works extremely hard for her clients. She is empathetic, and is determined to obtain the very best outcome for her clients. She is a kind, caring, brilliant, attorney who is passionate about advocating for her clients.
At Lawrence & Gerges, their clients are their first priority! I am highly confident in referring Lawrence & Gerges to my customers, family and friends.

We were extremely satisfied with the representation of Sean Burke in a personal injury lawsuit I brought as guardian on behalf a relative who is disabled. Mr. Burke was entirely professional, patient, kind, skillful, thorough--I couldn't have asked for a better advocate!

I will keep this as brief as possible. My injuries were so devastating and life changing that I wanted nothing more than to forget about them. This "forgetting" included attempting to ignore any and all aspects of my case. To be honest, I would have quit my case just to be left alone and to be able to move on with my life. It didn't help that, in typical fashion, the defense had done everything in their power for years to blame the accident on me. After years of this and refusing to settle, the case finally went to trial in early 2013. If I remember correctly, it took a couple days of jury selection and on a Thursday or Friday Sean made his opening arguments and began examining expert witnesses. Long story short, when the weekend was over and we came back to court on Monday, the defense was ready to settle! It took a couple days of Sean putting witnesses on the stand for the defense to come to their senses. My life has changed dramatically since then...and for the better this time. To reiterate, I wanted nothing to do with this case for years and IT WAS MY CASE! Sean worked tirelessly for me and my life and I was THE most difficult client to work for. He never quit even when I wanted to. To this day I don not believe I would have won my case with anyone else fighting for me. These days I consider Sean one of my very good friends and I am endlessly thankful for his support.

Sean represented me in a medical malpractice lawsuit, which was very complicated and time consuming. The judgement was in my favor, thanks to Sean's thorough work. Sean was always open and honest with me, and I would definitely work with him again, and I highly recommend him.

David L. Farnbauch Is great at what he dose. He came to a hospital when I asked him to represent me and my wife . He informed me on many things that was happening and what was to come. He worked hard for me and did a above the line expectation of a job. So if your looking for a great lawyer someone who will fight for you and knows how to get the job done then David L. Farnbauch and his wonderful team are the team for you !

I literally had the best possible experience with a lawyer one could ever hope for or ask for in dealing with Mr Farnbauch. His honesty and candor were incredible. Most of us are conditioned to think "lawyers = money-hungry crooks" based on previous experiences with them and society's view of them by-and-large. David is the polar opposite of this philosophy/view! Without getting into the specifics of my case, he gave me advice that benefitted ME, not him. All his dealings with me and advice through my case was for my benefit and not his. He very clearly approached my case in a way that maximized my standing above all else, and was less concerned with getting money from me than he was concerned with making sure I came out of my case in the best possible way. In short, I highly highly recommend Dave as an attorney. He restored my faith in the legal profession and humanity in general to be honest!

We will be forever grateful to David Farnbauch and the Sweeney Law Firm.

From the first phone conversation with Lori, to the first time meeting with David and Jeff, all the way through and to the conclusion of my case, I felt as if these people truly cared about what happened to me. They didn’t just see a potential “case”. They were upset with my situation. They wanted to help. Through the years that this whole process takes, I have gotten to know them a bit better, and they have gotten to know me. I now consider them less “my legal team”, and more a part of my extended family, whether they realize it, or like it, or not. I so appreciate their kindness, genuine compassion, and “got my back” attitude. I hope you are never in a situation to need these folks, but if you ever are, I highly recommend talking to them and seeing if it’s a right fit for all.

Paul Scott will talk to you like a real person. I was dealing with another lawyer that talked down to me, wouldn’t return calls, and I felt like I was unimportant.
Paul took my case, worked hard and efficiently, and listened!
I hope to never need a lawyer, but if I do I will hire Paul first. His slogan should be “one call to Paul, that’s all”.

Our son had an accident after his first week of driving on his own. The person he pulled out in front of was injured and both vehicles were damaged beyond repair. We were suddenly served legal documents and were being sued. Mr. Scott was the attorney for our insurance company. We had never been involved in an accident or a lawsuit and didn't know what to expect. His legal expertise and knowledge resulted in the plaintiff settling for what our insurance covered. Maybe even more impressive was the kindness and encouragement that was shown to our son through this whole process by Paul Scott.

His hard work definitely paid off and my family and I are extremely grateful and blessed to have had him on our team. If u want honesty, courage, responsibilty, and someone who believes in you and will fight to get you the best possible outcome Paul Scott is your man. Thank you Paul Scott for being there and never giving up. Truly dedicated to helping others.

Rob very successfully represented our family (our son) in a medical malpractice case involving a birth injury where our son suffered brachial plexus at birth. From the very first conversation I had with Rob he was upfront and honest about how difficult cases like ours can be but he was also very reassuring and confident that he could and would get us the justice we deserved. Through the entire process Rob and his firm were truly superior in their handling of our case. I always felt like I was informed and kept up to date on what was going on with the case and if ever I had questions or concerns I could call or email at anytime and always received a prompt response. Rob would take time (at all hours) to call me personally and answer any of my questions and was very reassuring in guiding me through the whole process of the case. Going through the legal process can be daunting and very emotional. With Rob I always felt like he was truly concerned of our understanding of the complex process but more importantly he wanted to make sure we were feeling comfortable and secure with all that was going on. For families suffering through something unexpected like a life altering birth injury it's important to have someone like Rob who can balance being the aggressive lawyer that you want on your case, but who can also identify with, and be empathetic to their client's needs. Although taking on our case and getting a successful outcome was Rob's goal, I never felt like it was just a job for him. Rob truly has a passion and an amazing talent for law. His commitment to his clients is truly unwavering and we are forever grateful for the dedication and care that he put into our son's case. Without a doubt it is because of Rob that our son will have opportunities in life he may not have had and will have the resources he needs to make his disablility less of a hindrance for him.

Robert Boyers was recommended to me to handle my slip and fall case. I will be forever grateful to Robert for allowing me to feel that I was in the ‘best possible hands’ throughout the 2+ year process through and including the settlement of the case. Robert’s expertise, professionalism, and compassion were beyond what I observed in the legal field. And, his associate and staff were a fine reflection of Robert’s guidance. Robert was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. A unique and very valuable characteristic Robert displayed was realizing almost intuitively when I wasn’t quite sure I understood an issue when he explained something to me. Picking up on my doubt, he would elaborate his answer until he felt I was at peace. As busy a person as I am at work, I value this trait in Robert and I hope he knows he possesses the ability to bring peace of mind to his clients. The outcome of the case was totally pleasing to me – the result of Robert’s and his staff’s constant concern for their client’s well-being, their professionalism, skill and respect for the profession itself.

I had the misfortune to receive a defective medical device which required additional surgery to remove and replace it. I then conferred with OSBORNE & ASSOCIATES LAW FIRM, P.A . Joe Osborne and his associates, especially Dennis Faulkner, were understanding and extremely helpful in working with me to facilitate all of the necessary information from beginning to end. I was amazed at how quickly and successfully my case was resolved – in only 4 months after my initial consultation. It was truly a pleasure to work with them. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs an attorney!

Generally, I am not a person that writes reviews. However, Mr. Stark is such an exceptional attorney, that I felt compelled to let others know.
Mr. Stark does not, (thankfully), fit the stereotypical attributes of most attorneys that I have encountered.
He is direct, honest and truly seems to care about the well being of this clients. He listens. He replies honestly and with very knowledgeable responses based on experience. He is not robotic and arrogant, as most attorneys that I have consulted with in the past.
He is very knowledgeable about licencing issues, so if you are in a health or medical related field and have licensing questions or concerns, he is the one to see, though he specializes in other areas as well.
Granted, may I add, he is also extremely humble, as he has a PhD and teaches Law and isl also is also a Judge. I found him to be quite generous with his time, and did not stare at his watch like many attorneys will do after a few minutes.
This attorney is not driven my money, rather by helping those in need of assistance. He also has a great sense of humor, which helps greatly when stressed!
I could not be happier about the outcome. Mr. Stark goes above and beyond to assist his clients. I am so glad to have consulted with him. Highly recommend!

Isaac Newlin was very prompt to get my DUI case resolved. From my initial call for consultation, to the final pretrial date, Issac expressed the highest level of professionalism and compassion possible. His thorough research and dedication to my case was proven through the outcome of my case. Several aspects were reduced and some even dismissed. A less capable attorney would be hard pressed to produce such results. His staff were kind, compassionate and more than willing to work through any feelings of unease I had, questions about my case, or simply just getting an update. Highly recommend to anyone else with similar legal issues.

I was uncomfortable pursuing a personal injury claim, but I'd suffered an injury that left me unable to work for months and had to do something. At our initial meeting, Isaac put me at ease and gave me a realistic expectation of what a fair settlement might be and a sense of the timelines involved with this type of claim. Fourteen months later I received a settlement that allowed my wife and me to pay off my medical bills and covered the time when I'd been out of work. Isaac made an anxiety-provoking process stress-free. I strongly recommend him.

Richard is a great lawyer. He handles cases with the utmost care and concern. He also returns telephone calls and responds to his own emails.
He litigated my case against a large insurance company when they refused to pay me for my substantial loss. In the end, the insurance company lost all of its motions in court and the case was ultimately resolved in my favor.
I thank Richard Rosenstein for all his hard work on my case and I recommend him without hesitation.

Just over 2 years ago I contacted Danny about representing my 15 year old son in Superior Court for 3 felony counts (aggravated child molestation, aggravated sodemy, and child molestation of his younger sister). You cannot imagine the pain and confusion our family was suffering at the time. We did not know where to turn or what to do next. Danny’s advice in the initial free consultation was sound, experienced, and straight to the point. His fee was more than what we had, but we worked hard to come up with the money because we knew he was who we wanted to represent our son. After we retained his services he introduced us to Melissa. Melissa was sympathetic to our situation and was clearly as well experienced as Danny was. Together, her and Danny developed a clear strategy that we should follow and consulted us on what we should do step by step. The knowledge those two attorneys exhibited to us as a team assured us consistently time and time again that we had made the right choice by hiring them. They worked tirelessly to get the case transferred back to juvenile court and stuck with us throughout the entire process keeping us well informed, answering all of our questions, and even once contacting me from home while caring for her sick child to answer some unimportant questions pertaining to the status of my son’s case (which took 2 years to get resolved). All the work they did for us was a flat charge and never once did they ever ask for another penny. In the end, our son was transferred to juvenile court where he got a fair sentence instead of the 75+ years he was facing in superior court. A+ attorneys that you will not regret hiring. Although no attorney can promise exceptional results, I can say without any resolve that that these two attorneys will work hard to get you the results you desire within reason and remain honest throughout the process about what you can expect from them without blurring the truth just to take your money. Thank you both!

Danny Durham provided my family with top flight representation after my father was killed in a traffic accident involving a tractor trailer. He and his staff were knowledgeable, hard working, and persistent. They did not rest until we were satisfied.
I would highly recommend the Durham Firm and Danny Durham personally to anyone who has been harmed or lost a loved one in a tractor trailer accident.

Mr. Fisher took my case when three other lawyers turned it down. I was cut off on my motorcycle by a truck that drove away and although I had the license plate of the truck no other lawyer wanted to take the time to go and find the trucking company and the witness wouldnt cooperate. Once Mr. Fisher got involved within 3 weeks he got a good witness statement and had identified the trucking company. After that it only took a month for him to get all my bills paid and get me a settlement that was alot more than I was expecting.

Mr. Fisher took a case 2 other lawyers turned down and got my case settled without a trial. He kept me informed and everything he told me would happen did happen. It was a car accident with a really terrible insurance company.

Ryan is the best. He knows the law inside and out and obtained a great settlement for us just a few weeks before our trial was to begin.

I'm so grateful that I choose Rita Jackman, she is superb in all that she does, and I was blown away how she treated me like an old friend that really cared about the eviction that I needed her help with from the moment I met her and throughout each step she has been there for me with my numerous questions.
Rita is not only extremely personable, but she immediately began the eviction process that I so needed with the notice on the door the next day! She's straight to point with the laws and what will transpire with each step should my roommate not move out.
I couldn't be happier with my choice, and I really thank God that He led me to such an amazing woman that truly cares about you as a person and not a number to make more money on...

I ended up having everything covered for any treatments, bills, medications, and vehicle replacement after having this firm handle my case and what's more is they recovered my lost wages as well as pain and suffering from having things dragged out by the at fault driver changing their story and the insurance giving me the run around on top of all of the struggle of my injuries and everything that came with them. I am still in pain to this day, still going through treatments for the back injury I received and had to go through rehab for but I have no financial stress which is a huge relief thanks to the team here!

My personal injury case was recently settled and I am very much happy with the result. The settlement amount for my truck accident was extremely fair and I was very happy with the attorney's fees. My hand was held through the whole process, and every time I called in I received answers to all my inquiries. I am healthy and thankful for all of the efforts their team put into my case.

I highly recommend Shapiro & Associates; they are an outstanding group of people who are dedicated to taking care of federal employees who are injured and seek compensation and benefits. During my case, Rhea, Gina, and Sam were very sensitive and hands-on each and every time I called in for questions or concerns on my case. They followed up with me after every doctor's appointment I had to make sure the services were adequate. This group of people are great and truly cares about their work and the needs of every client. I can't say enough about these great folks.

What a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Do for You
A medical malpractice lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence or misconduct of healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, or hospitals. These lawyers assist in cases where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury or death. Medical malpractice cases can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.
If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to improper medical treatment, a medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand your legal options, file a lawsuit, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.
When Should I Hire a Medical Malpractice Lawyer?
Hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is essential if you’ve been seriously injured due to the negligence of a healthcare provider or institution. Situations where you should seek legal representation include:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: If a doctor fails to diagnose or delays diagnosing a medical condition, leading to harm or progression of the illness.
- Surgical errors: Harm resulting from surgical mistakes such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments inside the body, or performing unnecessary procedures.
- Medication errors: Injuries caused by prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, or mistakes made by pharmacists in dispensing drugs.
- Birth injuries: Injuries to a newborn due to medical negligence during labor and delivery, such as failing to perform a timely C-section or improper use of delivery instruments.
- Anesthesia errors: Complications arising from improperly administered anesthesia, which can lead to serious injury or death.
- Inadequate follow-up or aftercare: Suffering due to lack of proper monitoring or care after a medical procedure, leading to complications.
- Hospital or nursing home negligence: Harm caused by the negligence of hospital staff, nurses, or administrators who failed to provide adequate care.
Medical malpractice cases are complex, and hiring a lawyer early can help ensure your rights are protected and your case is handled effectively.
What Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Do?
A medical malpractice lawyer provides various legal services to help injured patients hold negligent healthcare providers accountable. Their responsibilities include:
- Evaluating your case: Reviewing medical records and consulting with experts to determine if you have a viable claim based on the standard of care and harm suffered.
- Filing a lawsuit: Initiating legal action by filing a complaint against the responsible parties in the appropriate court.
- Gathering evidence: Collecting medical records, expert testimonies, and other relevant evidence to build a strong case.
- Negotiating with insurance companies: Working to secure a fair settlement that compensates you for your injuries without the need for a trial.
- Litigating in court: Representing you during trial proceedings if a settlement cannot be reached, presenting evidence and arguing your case.
- Calculating damages: Assessing the full extent of your losses, including medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
- Handling expert testimony: Coordinating with medical experts who can testify on how the standard of care was breached and how it led to your injuries.
How Are Medical Malpractice Lawyers Paid?
Most medical malpractice lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if they recover compensation for you. Key aspects of this payment structure include:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer's fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the settlement or award.
- No upfront costs: You do not pay any legal fees unless the lawyer successfully recovers compensation on your behalf.
- Case expenses: Costs for expert witnesses, medical record retrieval, and court fees may be deducted from your settlement or award in addition to the lawyer's fee.
Always discuss the fee arrangement during your initial consultation to understand your financial obligations.
How Much Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee model. General estimates include:
- Contingency fee: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total recovery amount.
- Case expenses: Additional costs such as expert witness fees and court expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.
Ensure you receive a clear explanation of all potential fees and expenses before proceeding with your case.
Top Questions to Ask a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Before hiring a medical malpractice lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?
Confirm the lawyer has a successful track record with similar cases. -
How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
Have you worked with expert witnesses?
Verify the lawyer's experience in collaborating with medical experts essential for your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association for their license and any disciplinary actions.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in medical malpractice and a history of successful cases.
- Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
- Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
- Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Medical records: All documents related to your treatment and injury.
- Evidence of harm: Photos, medical bills, and records of lost wages.
- Communication records: Any correspondence with healthcare providers or institutions.
- List of healthcare providers: Names and contact information of all involved medical personnel.
- Questions for the lawyer: A prepared list to address all your concerns.
- Timeline of events: A detailed chronology of your medical care and the issues encountered.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
