Integrity and professionalism are attributes that I enjoyed throughout my relationship with this firm. Mr Fogy and his professional team have been supportive and efficient in representing my work injury case.
He has navigated with incredible ease through the difficulties that came with the lockdown restrictions, and I am very grateful for the outcome.
I recommend Mr. Fogy and his firm, with all my heart, to anyone that can appreciate a great experience.

When becoming injured can cause alot if stress, it is good to have someone on your side. Law offices of George Fogy were not only very helpful in handling my case but also very professional. George Fogy was recommended to to me by a family member, and member, and I'm proud to say that I'd recommend them to anyone who wants to have a stress free experience when dealing with something that seems impossible. The law offices of George Fogy make anything possible.

I was a passenger in a car that was involved in a accident. The driver ran over a center-divide and took out a couple of street signs, the car wasn't damaged very bad. After arguing with the drivers insurance company for 8 months, they offered me $1000 dollars, at this point I was exhausted and in pain and ready to settle, then I spoke to Mr. Fogy. Mr. Fogy got me on the road to recovery. I went to physical therapy for about six months, while my case was going through the proper channels and in the end, I received a check for $32,860.00, TAX FREE!!!!!!!!
Currently I have a workman's compensation case, the defendants attorney offered me like $1,500. Because the case is still active, I don't want to disclose the numbers we are looking at now, BUT, it is way more than what i was offered. WAY! MORE! I am extremely happy with the results that Mr. George Fogy has delivered. I refer Mr. Fogy to all my friends and family.

Mr. Feifer was the most dedicated and knowledgeable professional that you could ever want to come in contact with. He kept me abreast of each step in the process and what I should expect from each step. Mr. Feifer always returned calls. He never left me guessing. I hope that I never need him again but if I do; I will not hesitate in calling his firm.

The insurance company denied my case saying it was a personal condition. I called 4 other firms who turned me down. Mr. Feifer took my case telling me it may not work out. It took some time but I did get a recovery that paid off the medical bills I had incurred. Thankful for that!!

Mr. Feifer turned my case around after one of the associates with his firm made me lose faith in the process. I was about to fire the firm until they reassigned the case to Mr. Feifer., He responded to my telephone calls after hours and even when he was on vacation. He was truthful with me from the onset as to the pitfalls of the law but fought hard at mediation to get me $10,000 more at mediation after the insurance company relayed their final offer. Even the mediator told me he was amazed by this result. Eddie Farah is lucky to have him on his team.

My son became disabled due to a stroke and was not able to walk well or speak many words. I was getting no where with the Social Security Disability Administration, and contacted "TEX" Chalkley. He and his staff took charge immediately, cut through all the red tape and obtained all the records required for Social Security processing in a short time. I highly recommend this firm because they streamlined the entire process, kept me informed along the way, were extremely knowledgeable and responsive to all my inquiries.

I suffered a severe injury on the job as a Longshoreman and contacted Eric Dupree and am glad I did. Eric and his staff are very knowledgeable experts where harbor workers rights are involved. Anybody that needs a lawyer to represent them when an accident happens to them on the docks would be making a costly mistake in not hiring with Dupree Law. My heartfelt thanks go out to Eric and his staff.

Initially, I started handling my worker's compensation case myself. Although I have almost two decades of case management in my professional background, this case was too close and personal and quite frankly, too exhausting to handle on my own. After loads of legal paperwork, as well as, the frustration of not receiving the appropriate rehabilitative care, I gave up trying to handle the case myself.
I found Susan in an online Internet search. What made me want to hire her was that she indicated she was ethical, had many years of experience in Worker's Compensation cases and has served as a Pro-tem Judge for Worker's Compensation cases. As soon as Susan took over my case, she proved to be the lighthouse in the storm. Her professionalism, direction and calm demeanor allowed me to trust and let go of handling the case and concentrate on getting better. She also fought for all the benefits I was entitled to receive.
My case recently settled, thanks to Susan. Looking back in hind-sight, I realize there were so many legal aspects to handling timelines and tons of paperwork in a Worker's Compensation case, that it really puts an injured worker at a disadvantage, when they are already at a disadvantage after being injured. The help of a caring, professional attorney on my side made a world of difference in my case. I now know why the Worker's Compensation claims adjuster, initially assigned to my case, didn't want me to get an attorney when I mentioned that I was seeking one out.
Susan is an exceptional, ethical, consummate professional and her many years of experience proved to be evident in the handling of my case. I am beyond grateful to her for helping me get the care and benefits I needed, and for settling my case beyond my satisfaction, as now I can move on from the injury and positively move forward in my life.

My dad's employer refused to provide his insurance benefits. I contacted Robert and he helped him through the process.

Lisa Kalo has restored my faith in attorneys!! We used her to litigate/mediate a workers comp case and she more than exceeded our expectations in terms of competence, professionalism, responsiveness to our concerns and questions, and finally, the mediation with the employer. We agreed to a settlemwent that in no way lined our pockets, nor hers. But she treated us with the respect of a multi-million dollar case. She's down to earth, shots from the hip, has a great sense of humor and an honest and human personality!! If you need a workers comp or wrongful death attorney, call Lisa Kalo. Her staff immediately treat you like family and her office gives a safe and "homey" feel.

I applied for SS Disability in 2017 and was denied the first time so I came to AVVO and also googled the internet to find an attorney to help me. I came across a bunch of attorneys who were willing to help but there was something about Ms. Vidya's profile so I called and she immediately picked up. Set an appointment the next couple of days. She was very attentive and listened to all my issues without interrupting. She gave us the best advise and decided to help us. Long story short, Ms Vidya worked diligently and within a couple of months, my disability was approved. I was totally in shock as to how quickly, professionally and intelligently she handled my case. She is the BEST of the BEST and I highly recommend her. Just try her and you will NEVER regret. Thank you Attorney Vidya Prasad. YOU ARE THE BEST AND AM STILL VERY GRATEFUL.

Tom Blake took on my case that was feeling hopeless. The statute of limitations was about up and the insurance company I was dealing with was dragging things out to boot. I contacted Tom seeking some guidance or advice, "Was this really hopeless?" Not even expecting a call back. He personally called me back and heard my story. He assured me we could do it if we worked for it. He was right! Tom was brilliant. In six months, he took my personal injury case and completely turned the outcome around with integrity and honesty all along the way. I am grateful beyond words.

Mike from the very outset was a very informative, patient caring individual. Recommended by a family member, I was still leery of using him. After contacting some huge well known Firms in Downtown Boston and asked by them if I had already contacted any attorneys, I mentioned Mikes name and was told, " If Mike can't get it done, no one can "
It proved to be all true. He ensured the workman comp company compensated me fairly and my medical needs met. I was hurt on the job ending up having to have a 3 level back surgery and a total hip replacement. Not only that but he connected me with an attorney in the state that the companies involved , were held liable on the personal injury side of things. Mike was implemental in me being compensated in a generous settlement ensuring my family and I are taken care for.
Mikes attention to detail and his vast knowledge is seen after sitting with him and his handling of the case.
Thank you Mike. We appreciate You

I sustained a repetitive strain injury as a result of numerous years working as a bank teller at a high volume drive thru. When the insurance company initially denied my claim, I reached out to Attorney Michael Kiernan to represent me and fight for the medical care and compensation that I deserved. He was extremely knowledgeable and was quick to answer anytime I had a question or concern. After finishing my treatment and being released back to work, he was quick to get all the required paperwork submitted so we could go ahead and settle with the insurance company. I got an excellent settlement that the judge approved within a couple days of me signing and I was able to quickly move on with my life and look for my next career opportunity. Michael works fast and adds a personal touch to make his clients feel secure and valued. I would highly recommend him to anyone going through any kind of workmans comp case!

From the moment I met Mr. Steinhardt and his partner Mr. Lieberman I felt confident that they would be able to assist me.
After years of working and being productive, I suddenly found myself unable to work and disabled after a car accident. My security was threatened and I was uncertain of my future.
Thanks to Mr. Steinhardt and Mr. Liberman and thier staff I won my case and have begun the process of putting my life back together.
Throughout this long and arduous process my attorneys were there for me. They took my calls, answered my questions, listened to my concerns, gave me support and guided me.
Though my life is different now I am grateful that they were able to win my case.
I am so pleased that I was able to retain this law firm and that I especially had the opportunity to work with Mr. Liberman. He went above and beyond, often took time to respond to my calls; even at the end of the day on Friday afternoons.
Thank you Mr. Steinhardt and staff.

We were so pleased that, if we find ourselves in need of a legal advocate in the future, Jonathan Franco is the obvious choice for us.

John handled a slip and fall case for me. I fell at my apartment building and the landlord was not doing anything about it. I'm lucky I found John because he filed a lawsuit and did a really good job working the case. He had an expert visit the scene and do an inspection and take photos. The expert was really good and found code violations. We ended up settling the case for a lot of money and I'm very happy with John as my attorney.

When I retained Attorney Soprano, my case was complicated. However Attorney Soprano proved to be a very formidable adversary against the constantly changing Comp Lawyers & Adjusters, resulting in my case, with a favorable outcome. I highly recommend retaining the expert legal team of Juliane Sorpano, for any Workers Comp, Disability, Social Security and Pension related matters, as they will go toe to toe with the Judicial system and fight for you.

Juliane has been a rock for me during one of the most trying times in my life. Her compassion for my situation , coupled with her knowledge of the law have been very reassuring during this devastating time. After my injury, my only source of light was her constantly telling me that I would come out of this situation alright. I cannot relay enough how instrumental she has been for me. Please if your in need of some legal support, use Juliane and her very talented team.

Attorney Gray was great. She took my case after my 1st attorney left the firm and always left me hanging. She kept in contact with me and answered all my calls and emails (and there were quite a few at the end). I would definitely recommend her if you are in need of a lawyer.

I meet Jenna in 2014 so this review is overdue, but she handled a couple of things for me and I was very satisfied with her service. She was so knowledgeable and available to answer questions with immediate response. I can’t thank Attorney Wolinetz enough. She really made me feel less nervous going through the ordeal.

i found attorney Wolinetz on line about two years ago and she has meet all of my expectations more than I could have amagined. Since that time I've refferred severel people to her because I believe she is honest and fair in handling matters. Thanks to Attorney Wolinetz I've been able to settle many matters that were lingering in my life. The only way I would use another attorney is if she feels she couldn't handle the case.

After interviewing a million lawyers I hired Ms Wolinetz to handle my situation. The situation is a complex civil matter with a lot of moving parts. A lot attorneys I spoke with were qualified but were looking for a case with a larger return. Still others could not handle the detail. We're not done yet but I would consider an interview and consult with Ms Wolinetz appropiate for anyone needing assistance in her areas of law.

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.
