I hired Bennett Schiller for a very difficult case. I was told by several people he was an excellent attorney. Despite making the exclusive list of ‘Top 100 Trial Lawyers’ he took my case even though there was a really low cap on the amount he could make. It was obvious to me that my case was way below his pay grade when I read about him winning multi-million dollar cases. He still took the case and put 100% into it. Mr. Schiller is very professional and his staff Elizabeth and Jessica are knowledgeable and gracious. Each of them makes you feel comfortable with a very uncomfortable situation. The odds were against him in my case but he made it all make sense. This man is intelligent and extremely sharp. Being as successful as he is instead of resting on his laurels as he could do-he chooses philanthropy in his community which speaks volumes to his true character. I have zero regrets about hiring his firm and would recommend him to anyone I know with complete confidence.

Bennett and Ms. Liz are the best at what they do! They bring the "personal" side of the business and make you feel at home and that they have your best interest at heart! You simply cannot go wrong with these folks...you deserve the best and these folks are the best...

Ben Garcia is one of the absolute best Public Defender Attorney's that I have yet to meet! His dedication and compassion, not to mention his intelligence, makes him the top of the list, in my humble opinion! Awesome! He is knowledgeable, kind and courteous. My husband was facing 2-20 years and a fine for a felony charge, Ben got it reduced to 1 year of house arrest with NO FINE!! He's a great judge of character and gives Honor to the ONE in whom Honor is due....our Father in Heaven, the One True God. God bless him and his family and his firm🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️

Initially I had hired another Accident Attorneys firm in Cincinnati but cancelled the contract within weeks due to their poor performance.
I contacted Sam Warden through a referral. Sam met me within 45 minutes from the time of the call.
He spent over an hour with me going through all the details of the accident, my injury and everything else pertaining to the legalities of such cases.
I feel blessed and grateful for having had Sam as part of the process. He was at all times ready to explain the process and kept me update as the case progressed.
I have no hesitation in recommending Sam Warden to anyone in need of an Accident/Injury attorney.

Had a diminished value claim, I didn't have to do anything. I told Sam what I would settle for, they came up very short on the offer so Sam filed to take them to court and miracles of miracles, they settled! Thanks Sam

My new car was only 6 months old when someone hit it. I searched for months to figure out how to recoup my loss of value, but didn't have much luck until I came across Sam's name on LinkedIn. He brought clarity to our situation, and with the exception of completing a little bit of paperwork and gathering documents, he and his team took care of everything else. I've already recommended him to one of my coworkers, and I highly recommend him to anyone that needs an advocate for their diminished value claim.

David handled my divorce very professionally. He has a sharp mind, years of legal experience, and is an excellent negotiator. I appreciate that he was available to answer questions and respond to concerns promptly through e-mail and by phone, as well as being confident and reassuring during stressful times at the court house. I highly recommend David J. Sternberg because he knows the law, can analyze complicated situations, and is able to communicates in a fair and direct manner with clients, defendants, and other lawyers.

I had a bit of a unique divorce agreement. David knew to ask questions that I didn’t know to ask even after our divorce was final. He truly looked out for me and my children and our assets. He is kind, personable, and professional. David Sternberg truly knows what he is doing. He is worth every penny! I have recommended him to everyone that needs a good lawyer.

Mr. Golchin was my lawyer for a case which a careless driver passed the red light at a intersection and hit my car so badly. My car was totaled and I was screened by the emergency. Unfortunately, the other driver did not acknowledge her fault, initially. But becasue of high endeavors, efforts, and consistency of Mr. Golchin, the other driver's insurance take the responsibility of the accident and paid the maximum available amount for my medical expenses and etc.
Mr Golchin is available almost 24/7 for answering your concerns and providing you with the helpful advice. He replies all the emails promptly. All the paperwork were done remotely (online) and there was no need to meet him in person. I highly appreciate Mr. Golchin skills, patience, supports, and efforts for finely settling my difficult case.

In 2014, when I was stranded in Tijuana, MX after escaping political persecution in my home country (long story), I frantically looked for an immigration attorney to seek asylum in the US. I shot off emails to several SD attorneys, asking them questions the answers to which I already knew to gauge their: 1) responsiveness and 2) expertise.
You'd be surprised how often lawyers provide the wrong answers even during the first consultation. No way I'm paying a single cent to any lawyer who doesn't know the law.
It turned out that Mr Golchin was the only who responded promptly AND correctly. Not only that, he PERSONALLY TRAVELED DOWN TO MEXICO just to meet me, and this was before I even retained him. That just goes to show his sheer dedication and willingness to go the extra mile in performing his duties. He left an extremely positive impression so I retained him.
When I was in immigration detention, he worked tirelessly to liaise with ICE officers to get me released ASAP and also visited me personally. With his assistance, I was finally paroled into the US. When the time came to file for a work permit and to file for asylum (I-589), Mr Golchin prepared the necessary form and documents conscientiously and accurately so as to prevent unnecessary delays.
When I had to defend my case in court in Los Angeles, Mr Golchin traveled more than a handful of times to my city to represent me in court. Though not a loud/flamboyant lawyer, he knows the law extremely well, he makes a huge effort to acquaint himself with the facts of your case, and when arguing he adopts a deliberate, collected, yet persuasive tone to convince the immigration judge of his position. Mr Golchin and I have always prepared through Skype conferences or personal meetings right before any court appearance.
Most importantly, Mr Golchin won my case for me (I'm finally a US asylee) at first instance, and the government attorney had also promised not to appeal the decision. I think, after all said and done, this is the most important point. I wouldn't be singing praises if my case had to go to appeal. I've also always felt comfortable consulting Mr Golchin on not only immigration matters but also other legal matters. He has been of assistance to me in legal matters beyond immigration.
In short, I'd highly recommend Mr Golchin for your immigration-related matters. He's the perfect combination of legal expertise and also genuine care and attentiveness for his clients.

If you are reading this review, you are obviously searching for a lawyer that stands out from the rest. You have pain, questions, concerns, fear, stress etc. and need help NOW!
I felt that way until I meet Mike. Since then, my interactions with Mike have been consistently professional and respectful. He has maintained open, honest and prompt communication with me. He has extensive knowledge of the law in his area of expertise and is thorough in maximizing resources one is entitled too. He works diligently, strategically and fights for your rights. He is also supported by a team of other lawyers and administrative staff who "get the job done".
So, if you want a lawyer who is "top notch", give Mike a call. You will be glad you did. He's the "BEST" of the best.

Ben came to my rescue in 2004 when I was fired after being hurt on the job. He got my check reinstated until things were decided in court. He was very professional and got things rolling right away.

When I became disabled I started my claim with the Social Security Administration, I filled out and submitted all the forms and of course was denied benefits. I haven't heard of any first time approvals personally except one. One day I ran into an old acquaintance, he was disabled at this point and had already begun receiving benefits. I explained my situation to him, and he said I should have already had a lawyer. He said I could never have gotten my disability benefit approval without a lawyer named Ben Johnson in Athens, he did a great job for me. I contacted Ben the next week and if I had not contacted Ben for help with my case, it would have long been over because the steps that came after the initial denial, appeal and hearing, my wife and I would have had no clue how to go any further or even that you could. Ben is very knowledgeable and didn't spare any of his knowledge on my case. He didn't wait until something came to him requesting information, he and his assistants were always one step ahead in getting any information they could think of that could be advantageous for my case. Ben and his assistants have been courteous and very helpful from the start. It took a long time, through no fault of Mr. Johnson, but he was able to get my benefits approved and I bless the day I met him.

I was relieved to be put in touch with Steve Ostrove who came with high recommendation. He not only returned my phone call same day but also spent the time to understand the issue I am dealing with and provided me with sound legal and cautionary advice including a preliminary direction to take. I found him to be very knowledgeable and genuine. If I'm unsuccessful with a resolution, I won't hesitate to to retain him.

Naveed is a fantastic entertainment lawyer! He was referred to me by Kathy Heller, who runs the entertainment law program at Chapman University, so I had high hopes, and was not disappointed. We worked together on a sticky contract, and his advice was useful and nuanced for both my experience in the industry and my goals. Now I regularly refer him to other writers. He's also a generous human--he did a Q & A for a screenwriting lab that I teach, and gave the students some clear legal basics, so they are more prepared for a career.

Mike has been an incredible asset and a wonderful source of calm for my family in what is the hardest time of our lives. He has helped us immensely through his tireless dedication and expert legal advice. He was able to, under a very constrained timeline, sort out all of the necessary paperwork to bring stability and clarity to my families estate, and he has done it all with a tremendous amount of respect and empathy for our unique situation and challenges. I cannot begin to recommend him enough to anyone who may be considering estate planning or who requires his expert assistance.

Mr.Phillips represented our teenage daughter in a medical malpractice case that was settled in 2011. Robert went above and beyond for us in a very difficult time. He came to our home and was completely honest with us, he explained everything along the way and kept us in the loop over time. Mr.Phillips treated our family with respect and did an incredible job for our daughter. He is a confident attorney with a great deal of experience and knowledge.Not only did Mr.Phillips help get our daughter the monetary compensation she would need to take care of herself for her lifetime, he also helped guide her in the right direction to set herself up for success. Mr. Phillips is a man of great integrity and will not let you down. Without hesitation, our family will always recommend him to anyone in need of his services. We are truly appreciative. Highly recommend!
Sincerely,
The Gross Family of Des Plaines, I

I was pretty anxious about my upcoming divorce. More like terrified. I didn't know where to turn. Who would answer my questions, who could I trust to give me advice? I was referred to Christine Svenson. From that first phone call, Christine had a plan and direction for me. Communication was never an issue, nor were crazy questions. Christine made me feel like I was her only client. Throughout the process I never lost confidence or trust, because I knew I was in good hands. In the end I was very pleased with the result, it was because of Ms Svenson.

I would highly recommend her services!

I recently had surgery that was very successful. I did not hesitate to let friends, family and acquaintances know that I had the surgery, how excellent the surgery went, who the doctor was and how he had changed my life.
My wife and I recently went through Chapter 7 bankruptcy with David Feinartz. The entire process as orchestrated by David was superb. But, have I gone out to friends or acquaintance an tell them that we had just gone through "Bankruptcy," and that we were so fortunate, so blessed to find an attorney that changed our lives. Unfortunately the answer is no. Why, at the age of 71, I did not want to advertise that our financial condition was such that we required the expertise of David Feinartz. I was ashamed that we had to file for bankruptcy.
David was recommended to us through a friend that admitted that he had experience bankruptcy and what a wonderful experience is was to work with David. Following up on our friends recommendation, we certainly found that to be true. We had been fighting financial problems since 2009 only going deeper and deeper in debt. Our only knowledge we had about bankruptcy and bankruptcy attorneys was through commercials on TV......................... and these guy"s can certainly scare you.
On our friends recommendation, we met with David and found him to be calm, and understanding of our concerns, even our terror of our future. David, after calming us down, explained the options we had ahead of us, made a recommendation as to how he would proceed. Davids calming manner in addition to his level of knowledge and professionalism was everything our friend who recommended David and more.
We have completed our Chapter 7 Bankruptcy and starting over. We will always be grateful to David as well as our friend who recommended David to us for changing our life.
Thank you David

David was recommended by a trusted friend to help us navigate foreclosure and bankruptcy proceedings. His knowledge in helping us through the court system was and is invaluable. Perhaps more valuable has been the time he has taken to make us feel a little less diminished as a result of our circumstance. His is all about making sure that we get the best possible outcome in the end.

Lost in the world of litigation? So were we. Lost and afraid. We were fortunate enough and blessed to meet Ricardo Morales. Many winters have come and gone since my husband’s accident and as many scenarios; most quite challenging. Through every season Rick was there; no matter the issue, no matter the time of day or night-constant, quick, confident, and kind. We can say with certainty that without him we would not have made it to a place of peace, security and beyond positive resolution. Most importantly we made a lifetime friend. Ricardo Morales and team-stop, you’ve found your answer.

Approximately 2 years ago I was involved in an automobile accident which left me with buldging discs. I was experiencing severe physical pain , especially in my lower back. Moreover, I even had to stop practicing yoga which is my passion. Furthermore, the insurance company was claiming the injuries were pre-existing. Attorney Ricardo Morales who was highly recommended to me, put his expertise and experience into my case, which was complicated. He was able to change the outcome of my case to a very favorable result. Through his efforts I was awarded a high compensation and I was able to take time off from work and concentrate on my health which has improved tremendously. I highly recommend the services of Dr. Ricardo Morales to anyone who has endured any type of accident. Also, besides being known for his professionalism and honesty , he is very caring towards his clients.

Ms. Olesky took on the task of my difficult Defense Base Act case after my doctor had released me prematurely from back surgery. She fought for me and kept fighting for me. I felt like I had no hope left in my case as the insurance company was fighting me so hard. But she kept fighting and finally made them pay me a large settlement and I got what I deserved for my case. I was referred by a co worker to this law firm of Gillis, Mermell & Pacheco, and now I am referring my co workers to this firm because they did such amazing work for me.

I used AVVO to find Adam and read all of his reviews. Everyone spoke very highly of his results. I had been shopping around for an attorney who would take on a civil suit matter for my small business and all of the other attorneys seemed to have little interest or seemed to speak in a manner where it appeared my situation was pointless. Adam listened to my circumstances related to my potential case and took off like a rocket to resolve the issue. He was professional, efficient, and available for my business needs. He was able to provide results that were beyond my expectations. I am grateful to have had this experience with him and look forward to future business ventures with him.

Adam was always professional, very responsive (always on top of things & returned all communications promptly). Adam is very knowledgeable regarding the laws applicable to my case; I was quite comfortable relying on his expertise.

I was referred to Mr. Turnbull not long ago and he represented me in a crunch when I was being charged with misdemeanors and a bogus felony trumped charge. Throughout the whole process I was nervous but I never failed to lose trust in him down to my final indictment hearing which resulted in my charges being suspended. All I can say is that I am glad that he was my attorney as he was knowledgeable, reasonably priced and reassuring of the outcome and he was right on point! He's the man to go to as his other positive reviews speak greatly of him as well.

From the moment my accident happened I didn't know which was worse the fact that I was in pain the fact that my car was damaged or the fact that I was out of work. my best friend suggested that I call Brockmeyer Law. intake was surprisingly easy and even though I lived over an hour away from both of their locations that did not stop the exceptional service I received. All I was required to do was relax rest and get better Brockmeyer law did all the heavy lifting and made all the decisions with my well being in mind. They made a stressful emotional hard situation more tolerable I was well informed everytime there was a change in my case status and I received Great A results in less then a year I felt protected and cared for throughout the entire process and I want to thank them all for everything they've done for me.

Right out of the shoot, Scott listened so well that he retained the details and facts for quite a length of time as the case drug out, only due to pandemic.
Scott is knowledgeable enough with the laws that on the fly was able to cite a precedence to allow a brand new piece of evidence on the record.
I was also happy that Scott does not try and take advantage with the charges. Very Very Fair.
Naturally, Scott won the case.

Mr. Rescinio is definitely the BEST, understands that bad things happen to Really good people. His knowledge and experience made all the difference for me recently in a DWI case. Mr. Rescinio and his staff worked endless hours and kept communication flowing through the whole process, in fact while we were in court several people approached him asking for his business cards. I would recommend him hands down to all of my friends and family his professionalism in the court room was very impressive also seeing the respect all his peers showed when he entered was impressive not just to me but also everyone else, even the judge. I will only ever hire Mr. Rescinio, for all of my future attorney needs.

I can't say enough about David. He's an amazing lawyer. He kept me on track, taught me to keep emotions out of things, and always told me when I was unnecessarily running up my clock! My outcome couldn't have been better.

I know I am not 'suppose to say this' but had David Shoen been my attorney, I am sure results would have been so different. Due to be being so harmed by a surgeon, I just knew I was about to become so sick and did so I was desperate to beat the clock, I signed with some horrid lawyer, who had no clue about med. mal. so instead he would just insult the victum. When I spoke with David, it was already too late for me I was already signed and some scary lawyer who was clueless. David Schoen instead of just having me sign, no on the phone he was questioning me in the right way, also a little smart humor, not just about to have me sign on the line, or get involved with a client who was he didn't believe in. He had moved to VT right around the time I found him on Avvo. VT you are lucky to have a David Ian Schoen, Esq., a real lawyer in the best way.

Residing outside Vermont, my husband and I feel fortunate to have found Attorney David Schoen through an internet search of Vermont attorneys specializing in personal injury cases. From our first meeting, he provided realistic and supportive information about the legal process. His experience, expertise, and patient responses to our questions allayed our anxiety, and his handling of our case ultimately resulted in a settlement we were completely satisfied with. He went above and beyond in the time and effort he spent on the case, and was entirely professional and knowledgeable in the advice and counsel he provided. We do not hesitate to recommend him.

I just want to say that Chris Shumate helped me so much with my first speeding ticket. From the moment we spoke about my case , he addressed all of my concerns and made me feel at ease about everything. Shumate assured me that we could get it all taken care of and the outcome would be in my favor. He is super affordable and should be paid even more for the time it took to resolve my case. I would recommend him to anyone! I’m not over exaggerating so if you need someone he’s the man for the job!

Doug is one of the best human beings I've ever encountered. I've worked with him and his staff for years, and I've been treated with respect and honestly like a family member. Everyone here is just so kind, willing to help, and answers questions. Doug has helped me and bent over backward through all aspects of the process that I've had to go through. I owe him everything. Not your typical lawyer and genuinely just wants to help " the little guy" in this world and make sure you get what it is that is needed and overall just owed to you in your unique circumstance. I literally couldn't do any of what I went through without him and his team.

What a Workers’ Compensation Lawyer Can Do for You
A workers’ compensation lawyer specializes in helping employees who are injured or become ill as a result of their job to receive the benefits they are entitled to under workers' compensation laws. These lawyers represent injured workers in claims for medical benefits, wage replacement, and other compensation related to workplace injuries or illnesses. They also help when claims are denied, benefits are delayed, or disputes arise with the employer or the insurance company.
Whether you've been injured on the job, developed an occupational illness, or are dealing with a denied workers' compensation claim, a workers’ compensation lawyer can help you navigate the claims process and ensure you receive the full benefits you deserve.
When Should I Hire a Workers' Compensation Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a workers' compensation lawyer in several situations, especially when complications arise during the claims process or when your rights as an injured worker are being challenged. Some common reasons to hire a workers' compensation lawyer include:
- Claim denial: If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, a lawyer can help you appeal the decision and represent you in hearings or litigation.
- Inadequate benefits: If the insurance company offers you a settlement that doesn’t cover your medical expenses, lost wages, or other damages, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf for a fair amount.
- Delay in receiving benefits: If your benefits are being delayed, a lawyer can help expedite the process to ensure you receive timely compensation.
- Permanent disability: If your injury leads to permanent disability (partial or total), a lawyer can help you navigate the more complex process of securing long-term benefits.
- Retaliation by employer: If your employer retaliates against you for filing a workers' compensation claim (e.g., by firing or demoting you), a lawyer can protect your rights and pursue legal action.
- Third-party liability: If a third party (e.g., a contractor or equipment manufacturer) was responsible for your injury, a lawyer can help you pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
- Pre-existing conditions: If your employer or the insurance company claims that your injury is related to a pre-existing condition, a lawyer can help you present evidence showing that the injury was work-related.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can prevent delays, avoid mistakes, and ensure you receive all the benefits you’re entitled to under workers' compensation law.
What Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Do?
A workers' compensation lawyer provides a range of legal services to injured workers, ensuring that they receive the benefits they deserve. Their tasks often include:
- Filing claims: Helping injured workers prepare and file their workers' compensation claims to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
- Appealing denied claims: Representing workers whose claims have been denied and guiding them through the appeals process, including hearings and court appearances.
- Negotiating settlements: Negotiating with insurance companies to secure fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
- Handling disputes: Resolving disputes between the injured worker, the employer, and the insurance company regarding the amount of compensation or the nature of the injury.
- Coordinating medical evidence: Gathering and presenting medical records, expert testimony, and other evidence to support the workers' compensation claim.
- Advocating for benefits: Ensuring that injured workers receive all the benefits they’re entitled to, including temporary or permanent disability benefits, vocational rehabilitation, and medical treatment.
- Filing third-party lawsuits: In cases where a third party is responsible for the injury, a workers' compensation lawyer may also pursue a personal injury lawsuit to recover additional damages.
How Are Workers’ Compensation Lawyers Paid?
Workers' compensation lawyers typically charge a contingency fee, meaning they only get paid if they successfully recover benefits for you. This fee is usually a percentage of the benefits awarded, and the specific percentage is often regulated by state law. Here's how it generally works:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer's fee is typically between 15% and 25% of the total benefits awarded to you. You don’t have to pay any upfront legal fees, and the lawyer’s fee comes out of the settlement or benefit award.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t recover any benefits for you, you generally don’t have to pay for their services.
- State regulations on fees: Many states cap the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge, and some states require the fee to be approved by the workers' compensation board or judge.
Be sure to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a workers' compensation lawyer typically depends on the contingency fee arrangement, meaning the lawyer’s fee will be a percentage of the benefits you receive. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fees: Most workers' compensation lawyers charge between 15% and 25% of the total settlement or benefits awarded. For example, if you receive $50,000 in benefits, the lawyer’s fee would range from $7,500 to $12,500.
- State regulations: Some states limit the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge. In these cases, the fee is usually capped, often at 20% to 25%, depending on state law.
- Additional costs: Some lawyers may charge for out-of-pocket expenses, such as filing fees, medical records retrieval, and expert witness testimony, though these costs are typically deducted from the settlement after the case is won.
You should always ask for a clear explanation of fees and potential additional costs during your consultation so you understand the financial arrangement.
Top Questions to Ask a Workers' Compensation Lawyer
Before hiring a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with workers' compensation cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your injury is severe or the case involves disputes. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and whether there are any additional costs you need to be aware of. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Find out if the lawyer has experience dealing with cases involving similar injuries or disputes, such as denied claims or permanent disability. -
How long will the process take?
While it’s difficult to predict an exact timeline, the lawyer should be able to provide a general estimate based on their experience with similar cases. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case. Make sure you know who will be working on your claim.
How to Check the Credibility of a Workers' Compensation Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable workers' compensation lawyer, follow these 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 and in good standing, with no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for workers' compensation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in workers' compensation law and have successfully handled cases similar to 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 expertise and service.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience in workers' compensation cases.
- Check for professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the Workers' Injury Law & Advocacy Group (WILG) or local bar association committees on workers' compensation can indicate the lawyer’s commitment to this area of law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Accident report or incident documentation: Bring any documentation related to your workplace injury or illness, including accident reports or notifications to your employer.
- Medical records: Provide copies of medical records, including treatment notes, doctor’s reports, and any information related to your injury or condition.
- Employer correspondence: Bring any letters, emails, or forms related to your claim from your employer or the workers' compensation insurance company.
- Wage and benefits information: Provide information on your wages, benefits, and any lost income due to the injury.
- List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the process, costs, and what to expect moving forward.
- Timeline of events: Prepare a timeline of the incident, your injury, and any medical treatment or communication with your employer and the insurance company.
Being well-prepared for your consultation will allow the lawyer to assess your case more effectively and provide you with the best possible legal advice.
