I would like to recommend attorney Christopher Caproni and the Law Firm of Dominick Cunningham & Whalen (DCW) to anyone looking for an attorney. Mr. Caproni is a very knowledgeable and trustworthy young men. He worked extremely hard to get the best results out of my case. I retained DCW and Mr. Caproni to represent my son in a slip and fall case and I can truly tell you that he got the best results for my son on an extremely hard and difficult case to win. Thank you so much for the hard work.

Jarrod and his team listened and cared about my daughter and her injuries. They were always on top of things and so accessible at all times. Their goal was the best outcome not the first settlement offer. I appreciate that they were there for my daughter and had her best interests at heart. Many times, things seemed so overwhelming to deal with, but they handled it and took the stress of of me. I could have never navigated what needed to be done without them.

He was honest and realistic. I felt he was fighting for me personally. His results speak to his commitment, he was able to secure 3x as much as what other attorneys were willing to fight for. I absolutely have no criticism for his performance and in the way he interacted with me.

From the very beginning, I felt I was in exceptional hands. I was in a car accident and what should have been an absolute nightmare, tear in my lumbar disc and horrible sciatica, was in fact heaven sent when I believed Mr. Mark Kaire when he assured me that I was in perfect hands. From start to finish they took care of everything. I am forever indebted to Mr. Kaire and Liane, who vowed to do everything in their power to make sure I was taken care of. I would trust no one else. I hope I never get into another car accident again but if I do, I know exactly who would be there for my family and I. Thank you Mr. Kaire and Liane. You go above and beyond and I am so grateful I chose you guys to assist me in such a trying time. It is with your paramount dedication to your profession that people feel so at ease in the most desperate times. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I was rear ended on April 28, 2016 and had injuries to my neck. I did not want to be stuck with medical bills so I knew I had to find a personal injury attorney. I chose an attorney that did not have a billboard. I found William Schneikart on line. Little did I know Bill would put the gloves on for me and fight for what was right and just. Bill was compassionate to me and took his time obtaining the information. He was patient and has a calming demeanor. I could tell right away he was passionate about his job and believed in what he did. Bill walked me through step by step and informed me that the case could take six months or longer. Bill always kept me updated on the progress of my case. Bill worked tirelessly obtaining all my medical records, the accident report, information from the at fault insurance company and my insurance company. My insurance company stepped up to the plate. He referred me to the best medical/chiropractor clinics. I had to get an MRI of my neck (the first one ever). I went to all my medical appointments, physical therapy, and I had procedures (facet blocks, epidural, disc decompression) to ease my headaches and neck pain. I had headaches most days. Bill kept me going because there were times when I wanted to give up since the at fault insurance company offered a low ball settlement which would not begin to cover my medical bills. I was stressed out and depressed. Bill (and his assistant Kelsey) gave me words of encouragement. The at fault insurance company refused to give what was right. The case would have to go to court. Although Bill is an excellent litigator, he knew this may be a long drawn out case. Bill brought in a married attorney team that had ALOT of experience dealing with the at fault insurance company to help with the fight. Bill works with this attorney team often. My case was resolved by May 19, 2017. It just took a little while to get the details worked out, and then we were delayed by the court for about a month. The at fault insurance company agreed to pay the maximum. I was relieved, since the medical bills will be covered and after attorney fees I will have enough for future treatments if needed. Bill will fight for you! I would hire him again in a heart beat!

I worked alongside Andy for years and have always been impressed with his work ethic, professionalism, and litigation skills. Andy has the ability to perceive and evaluate how both simple and complex legal issues will play out on both sides - which makes him an excellent mediator. I hands down recommend Andy as both a litigator and mediator!

I live in Texas and received a speeding ticket while returning from Spring Break in Florida - doing 110 in a 70 mph zone, which makes things a lot worse in terms of fines and points since the speed was more than 35 mph higher than the speed limit. My fault and everything, road was very clear and I wasn't paying attention to the speedometer, and the device used was a laser gun. Also when stopped I had my old insurance papers (had just renewed it, but I forgot to print the new ones) so that was another ticket. I hired Estrella ticket defense since it would have been very difficult to fly or drive to Florida to attend the court date. They took care of everything for me and got the speeding ticket ruling to be "withheld adjudication", with no points or fines, paying only court fees; and for the insurance one they presented the proof of insurance and had the ticket dropped. The judge wanted me to pay court fees for the insurance citation, but they had the court fees dropped as well after filing a motion since I could prove I had valid insurance at the time of the citation, just didn't have the paperwork on me.
Overall I am very pleased with how they represented me in this matter and how they kept me informed. Their cost was high but this is due to the ticket nature, and were half that of another well reviewed firm on Avvo. Overall very pleased - hopefully i won't need them again, but if I do I, will definitely use them again.

I got a traffic ticket for something I felt was not my fault, and I lived out of the state it occurred in so I was not able to appear to represent myself. Rafael Millares' law firm took care of it for less than the cost of the ticket. So I'm pleased.

Terry led the team for my father's wrongful death case, in which we recently accepted a settlement from the defendants. His firm had worked hard on the case over the past few years as multiple defendants were involved including a large entity. Depositions were taken thoroughly, scenes/events were reconstructed accurately, experts were involved etc., and the whole discovery process was executed in a very efficient, accurate, knowledgeable, and professional manner.
Terry fought hard for my family and did everything he could in our best interests. He wasn't afraid to stand up to large corporate interests and kept working persistently on the evidence/case against them. My family and I are very grateful to Terry and his team for the work they have done to help bring closure for the great loss we have endured.
I highly recommend Terry Rubino and his law firm for wrongful death cases in IN and IL. We had a very positive experience and a successful outcome.

James Nuebel represented me and an immediate family member on two separate social security disability claims (including one that required an appeal hearing in front of an administrative law judge). Mr. Nuebel was always professional, always responsive, and most importantly - completely successful. We prevailed on both claims, something that I feel was only made possible by his expert representation. I would recommend Attorney James Nuebel without hesitation.

From the moment we met Fred Tromberg we knew that the recommendation for our estate lawyer was a good one. Fred is extremely knowledgable and caring. He listened and spent time telling us about all the possibilities that could occur with our case. He was in contact with us for over a year until we finally got our case settled. We recommend him highly not only for his professional manner but his wealth of knowledge and his true caring about us and our case.

I came to Mr. Tomasik from another attorney who was not capable of handling my particular case. I found his website while searching the internet for a personal injury attorney. I called the office and briefly spoke to Jessie, the assistant who was so polite and patient with me on the phone. She informed me that Mr. Tomasik agreed to meet up with me the same day. On my way to Berkley, I was very nervous as to how things were going to turn out because after all, I had such a bad experience with my previous lawyer. IAt the same time, I had serious painful health issues resulting from my car accident with which I had to deal with on a daily basis. Having to deal with terrible physical pain and looking for a different attorney for myself was very stressful for me. I arrived to Mr. Tomasik's Berkley office and upon entering I almost immediately felt comfortable. Mr. Tomasik got some information from me about my situation and how unhappy and disappointed I was in my previous lawyer. Like I said, at the time of my meeting with him, I was feeling very sick due to my injuries but Mr. Tomasik made me feel so comfortable. I was so glad that he was willing to take on my case. From then on, I don't have anything but all the positive things to say about Mr. Tomasik. He was always there to answer any questions I had along the way. I could reach him at all times. I couldn't reach my previous lawyer for weeks and I am not exagerating. I thought that was normal for lawyers not to call back promptly until I hired Mr. Tomasik. Most importantly, Mr. Tomasik treated me like family. He fought so hard for me to the end. Upon reading the other testimonials, I have come to realize that each case Mr. Tomasik takes on, he takes it very seriously and does not give up until he gets the best compensation. In my case, the process was very, very long but at the end he won a great settlement on my behalf. I appreciate all his help so much. I don't have a lot of experience with lawyers aside from my previous lawyer but I know that Mr. Tomasik is above the rest. Not only is he so professional, extremely knowledgeable, and compassionate but he is so down to earth person. I feel so fortunate in that he was the one who handled my case.

I was standing on a street corner when a truck jumped the curb, and knocked me unconscious. I had never been involved in litigation before, and I was extremely nervous for my deposition, but Mr. Tomasik walked me through the process every step of the way, and settled my case. Mr. Tomasik is a very trustworthy attorney, and I still keep in touch with him today. I would recommend Mr. Tomasik’s services to anyone

I have personally hired Mr. Wirth and his team when I was involved in a horrific auto accident last year. They are absolutely Amazing and very knowledgeable with the law!
They delivered both professional and personalized service.
You can count on him to listen to your concerns, explain the law and process, understand your rights, and guide you through excellent service while obtaining the best outcome. Mr. Wirth and his team are very attentive and you don't feel like your just another file or number that gets lost. They are very attentive to your needs and they minimize all your stress from the paperwork, to speaking with insurance companies, organizing all your doctor records, and really manage your case so I was able to focus on getting myself back on track. They even work early and later hours and accommodated my schedule. They even called me after I got out of work at 5PM to speak about my specific needs. They are very attentive and treated me with great respect that was greatly appreciated and noticed. Thank you Mr. Wirth and your team for really taking care of me! You guys are the BEST =)

Although I haven't hired Mr. Stein, he has helped me with legal questions on Avvo. If I lived in south Florida, he would definately be my choice for representation. He knew exactly what questions to ask me and his response time would be impossible to improve upon. Words cannot adequately express my appreciation. To suffer the loss of a parent in a "questionable, suspicious" death and then not be allowed to grieve due to continuous Probate problems is a living nightmare.

I hired Brett to handle two high end auto accident cases for me over a 24 month period. A 2015 Mercedes CLS and an Audi 2015 A7. Both handled well and professionally. He is very adept at diminished value claims in addition to representation. You get to talk to him directly instead of para legals and admin assistance. I appreciate that very much. He was recommended to me by one of the largest law firms in Orlando. If you have high end autos, I recommend Brett to assist you.

Brett Bressler just handled the diminished value claim on my 4 month old Acura TSX which was t-boned on the right passenger side. He came highly recommended by the body shop that repaired my car. Not really knowing much about diminished value, however, I figured the process would take months. Not so! After a quick damage analysis and appraisal, he submitted a demand letter to the counterparty's insurance and obtained the full amount demanded within 2-3 weeks. Brett also kept me fully informed at every step of the process. I would definitely recommend his services to anyone in need.

I knew Kirk personally and talked with him when I had been terminated from a job. He is a careful listener and was able to explain what the problem was with my termination.

Seth was communicative and clear, he always made me feel comfortable with the progression of my case and "broke it down" so I didn't feel like any lawyer-ese was too dense. The most difficult part was waiting for dates to come due to COVID delays, but Seth and his team made it pretty painless. The deposition was much easier than I prepared myself for it to be (due in part to Seth's pre-depo explanation and info sharing).
The final result was a great one, and I was very glad to have everything behind me. At no point did Seth lose sight of our goals, and he made me feel like I had a voice in my own case - not only that but going up against a global brand felt easy with him at my side. I would recommend Seth to anyone who needs assitance in this type of personal injury case.

I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to Melvin "Mel" Wright and his whole team for all he has done for my son. At a very, very dismal time in our lives, when we literally felt all odds were against us because of very particular immunity laws surrounding our case, Mel fought long and hard and hung in there until he found a vein of hope to help my son in his recovery. Mel never gave up no matter how many dead-ends nor obstacles we faced. Our case was not an easy case at all due to the facts and extreme injuries involved. Mel made himself easily available to offer explanations to my many, many questions or even to just hear me rant or vent about the unfairness of immunity laws. Mel became not only our attorney but a true confidant. He truly goes above and beyond to make his clients feel like family. In a time when attorneys are a dime a dozen, Mel and his team, the whole firm actually, exceeded my expectations. If we ever need an attorney again, without a doubt, we would definitely call Mel. And, we most definitely would refer Mel Wright without any questions.

I contacted Mr. Robert Farley after I was involved in a serious car accident. Mr. Farley and his team worked closely with me, the insurance company, and all of my doctors/medical services that I dealt with. They took a lot of work that I thought I would have to handle and helped me every step of the way. I am very thankful for the careful attention that they gave to my case, and feel certain that if I had used another lawyer that I would not have had the same amazing service and results I had with them.

Mr. Welmaker represented me in a slip and fall case. He and his staff were very professional and courteous. He was the only attorney who would take my case after talking with several others.

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.
