We hired Richard to help us navigate a complex business contract. Richard took the time to make sure we understood every word of the contract provided by the other side and rewrote and negotiated it to be in our favor before we signed. His tactful and professional approach saved the deal and made sure we got a contract which was very favorable to our side, protecting our interests and our investment. He did this all without spoiling the deal or offending a difficult opposing side. I would trust Richard with any complex contracts case and highly recommend him when the issue requires tactfulness and working with the other side. He can be tough when needed, but also knows how to bring two sides to agreement and is able to preserve critical business relationships. He and his firm have been a tremendous resource to our company over the years and were are ever grateful for Richard's helpfulness, surprisingly fast response-time, for taking the time to answer our questions, for understanding how important the deal was to us, and above all for treating us like family!

I was involved in a horrible car accident where another driver ran a red light and T-boned my side of the car. Unfortunately it was a “he said she said” case with no witnesses. We had to sue. I am so grateful for John Anderson, he helped me prepare my case and prepare for court and ultimately win both lawsuits with my insurance company and the underinsured driver’s company. We were awarded the full settlement in both cases. I know 100% this would have never happened without him. I highly recommend John Anderson for anyone needing a lawyer!

David is an outstanding att. He is very honest and trustworthy, always reminding me to "take the high road". He doesn't have to be scandolous or devious....he simply puts forth the facts and stands up for what is right. David does this with a combination of great knowledge of the law, genuine concern for his client, and a profound amount of respect for ALL involved. I am proud to have had David represent me.

David is an excellent attorney that will fight you to the end. At this time I have won a jury judgement and the insurance for the Dr. is trying to appeal. David is really excellent in the trial setting and develops a good rapport with jury. He presents the case in a manner that the jury can understand. In my case he was excellent. I would recommend David Hart to anyone who has a legitimate case. Right now the award in my case is in excess of $250,000.00. I goes up about $1000.00 per month. I just can't think of anything that could be more satisfying than having David represent me in front of jury and presenting my case.

Mr. Gavin Mcinnis is an Excellent attorney, I have known many when I was a Deputy Sheriff for Bexar County and no one can compare with him in my book. A honest, respectable, caring and sincere human being. It is hard to find those qualities and traits in the attorney profession. He handled the case in a profession manner and most important of all-he listened and shared our loss and suffering. I would strongly recommend Mr. Mcinnis to others. Gavin was my sounding board and he cared enough to just sit and listen and at the same time make remarks which would have me laughing and smiling when I was down. Gavin made a connection with my whole family. He provided information and kept us aware of what that information meant. A wonderful person and excellent attorney.

I am so thankful to have Al Clarke and his firm take my case in these extremely difficult times. On top of Al’s demonstrated compassion, dedication, and grit, ultimately his creativity resulted in an effective avenue to resolve my claim. While Al and his team are completely professional, they somehow also made me feel like I was part of their family, and this case was personal to them, as they relentlessly pursued the offending party until my matter was resolved. I truly don’t know where I would be right now without Al Clarke and his firm.

He started off with a big smile and hello to me and my granddaughter. he came to my home. He gave me a second chance when it came to my broken heart. I was so broken and he listen to my every word. even when I was fussing and yelling at him. Alfred Clark became my dear friend I will never forget him. Everytime I was having a bad day. Al listen and listen some more. I knew the day I told him I wasnt happy about things and all he did was listen and before he always gave me a answer he always concerned my feeling. he got to know me and Noraye as a person and not a just a client. I will if anyone even have as problem as I have had. I will refer them to call Alfred Clark and his firm. I was very satified with the out come of my case. I will never ever forget. When things was hard he reached out for assist to make sure I was happy and always return my phone call. The Patrick Malone Firm in Washington DC should be # one for any person seeking Attorney assistance. They was there for me 100% They travel to my home and always gave me there full attention I was a very hard person to deal with because I lost my only child but the took my case and gave me one again 100% of there time. I thank them all from the buttom of my heart. Thank you Alfred and Patrick Assist.

Andrew was wonderful! He was incredibly helpful, as was everyone at the Barber Law Firm. I was very impressed with the fact that he always responded to my e-mails personally, and never made me feel like I was annoying or bothering him. We were in contact on average once every week or two and I always felt like I knew where my case stood. He even took time to respond to me over Christmas vacation when I was having problems with the insurance company. I seriously cannot say enough good things about Andrew and I would not hesitate to hire him or anyone at the Barber Law Firm again. I feel like he did a great job representing me and my case, and reached a settlement far greater than I ever had imagined. I had a relatively minor injury in the grand scheme of car accident injuries, but I never felt like my case was lesser or unimportant.

I worked with, and retained William Devore IV for a legal mess that I was in. I feel that his representation and consultation throughout the process exceeded my expecations. He helped streamline 2 different issues that I was having, whereupon one dealt with renters and the other my property management company. William is knowlegable, articulate and most importantly assertive with his handle on the law. He guided me along the right path and even went above the billable retainer to get my desired outcome. Hopefully, I won't need his services in the future, but if I am in a legal bind, I would have no thoughts about a different counsel.

I am a lawyer in Pennsylvania and I just completed a Products Liability case in Pennsylvania involving the alleged failure of a defective bicycle part manufactured in another country. I had a jurisdictional problem whereby personal jurisdiction over the foreign manufacturer was at issue in Pennsylvania. Because the Statute of Limitations, (or time within which suit had to be filed) was expiring, I needed to file a protective action in Federal Court in Washington State at the last minute since the foreign defendant clearly did business in Washington State. Through the trial lawyer list serve on the internet I contacted Phil Arnold who practices Seattle and throughout Washington State. Phil immediately responded to me and immediately took time out of his busy schedule to act as local counsel and get the suit filed in Fed Ct and then convince the Court to have the the case stayed in Fed Ct in Washington while my case proceeded in Pennsylvania. Because of Phil Arnold's responsiveness and legal skills, in filing this protective action in Washington at the last minute, I was able to obtain a favorable resolution of my case in Pa. Phil did not have to help me, but he never hesitated a bit. That is why I am proud to be a trial lawyer and member of the American Association of Justice in which Phil is also a member. We help each other all around the United States. Our common bond is the plight of the victims we represent. And I am honored to recommend Phil Arnold and his firm to anyone in the United States of America who has a personal injury case in Washington State.

Adam and his colleague were our attorneys for our successful settlement with a hospital that neglected to provide my husband appropriate care, leading to serious, life shortening repercussions. He was always clear with his thoughts and suggestions, answered all questions without making us feel like dopes, and genuinely cared for our family and the outcome of our case. He didn't promise the moon, but shared his expertise based on years of practice and the results showed, We received the amount of settlement we'd hoped for, allowing us to prepare for whatever changes we'd need to make as our husband's declining health requires.

While driving southbound on I-5 in Tacoma an underinsured motorist sideswiped a dump-truck causing it to spin around and go north in the southbound lanes and hitting us head-on. We were crushed between the spinning dump truck, the car that caused the accident and the car that rear-ended us. We hired Schroeter Goldmark & Bender to represent us. The insurance carrier for the underinsured motorist paid us the limits under their policy. Our own insurance company basically made an offer of zero to cover life-altering and permanent injuries. Our team at SGB of Adam Berger, Sergio Garcidueñas-Sease, Lindsay Halm and Alder Burgess took over for us. One of the most important things they did was to shield us from the stone-walling, delaying tactics of our own insurance company to whom we had paid premiums for more than 30 years. From the beginning they handled the case as if it would end up in litigation. You need attorneys like SGB that have your back and are not afraid to go to court if that is what it takes. They had the added challenge of doing this during Covid. Thank goodness for Zoom conferences. We ultimately got a court date. Two months prior to our court date, we went to mediation, via Zoom. We didn't hold out much hope for mediation, but we were willing to make an attempt. What a surprise when the insurance company came to mediation finally willing to negotiate. After a full day of the mediator going back and forth between Zoom rooms, we came to a fair monetary settlement. We are convinced that the insurance company, even then, was only willing to negotiate because, Adam and the rest of his team were well prepared bulldogs willing to go to court if mediation failed. As they like to say, "This was not their first rodeo". A car accident is horrible. You need the best attorneys you can find to protect your interests. Besides being professional and knowing the case inside and out, Adam and the rest of his team are compassionate and truly care about their clients. We strongly recommend them to anyone who needs their service. Without Adam and SGB our insurance company would have paid us nothing.

Liz and Adam were an outstanding team. They worked together very well, and you can tell they have a lot of respect for each other. Adam is a very experienced, skilled attorney, and it shows. He has incredible recall of the specific facts of the case he is working on, and wowed us more than once with that ability. Adam was an excellent advocate, and got us an excellent result.

He is very straightforward and always prepared to defend his client. When the Judge told me that Mr. Munish did work on my case Thanksgiving day I was speechless.

I was engaged in a civil matter that required timely response and knowledge of an intricate business structure. Mr. Dennis was VERY prompt in receiving, reading, and comprehending the massive amounts of documentation that I had sent over. In addition to his responsiveness, he was very intelligent and respectful for what the situation called for to resolve the matter. I would recommend Mr. Dennis if you are looking for a trust worthy attorney who truly has the best interests of his client in mind.

I was referred to Richard Prager by another attorney who spoke very highly of him. Although Richard was not able to take my case, he spent quality time referring me to other attorneys within his network and helped me find an attorney who could assist me. I was amazed by his generosity and how much he cared for someone who he was not being paid to assist. I have no doubt that he takes very good care of his clients. I highly recommend him.

I would like to say a sincere thank you to Mr. Richard Prager. Richard was outstanding in handling our car accident and injury case. We were recommended to him by a friend of ours and both my wife and I were taken care of from the start. He kept us informed on every aspect of our case, always asking what we wanted to do. Richard was very efficient and responsive to every question we had. He was also, easy to contact. He alway returned our calls. I've never wrote a review before, but I would recommend Richard and the Law Offices of Charles Roseman to everyone who needs a personal injury attorney.

If you are ever in need of a personal injury attorney you cannot make a better choice than securing the services of Maxwell & Maxwell for your representation in your personal injury matter. My experience with Maxwell & Maxwell was beyond my expectation. My case was not a clear-cut simple run-of-the-mill personal injury case and the insurance company was about as hard-nosed as they come, but, with the diligence and hard work toward my case by Ms. Kristine Maxwell, my case was resolved in my favor and I would like to thank Ms. Maxwell for responding to phone calls, texts and emails from me in a timely matter.

Being an attorney myself, but not specializing in personal injury, I needed a personal injury lawyer when I got into a serious car accident and was injured. I went immediately to Brad Hartman because I knew him personally and I knew of his Sterling reputation. I discussed the situation with Brad and retained him to represent me . He did so, and worked extremely hard fo get additional compensation for me from my uninsured motorist coverage. I was pleased not only with the result that Brad obtained, but also very impressed with the thorough work up he did on the case.

Trustworthy is the most important thing I can say about Cameron. His straight forward approach can be abrasive but it is necessary when trying to understand what kind of fight your up against. He was more than reasonably priced. Honestly, I was a little apprehensive because he came in way under any other attorney I interviewed. I feared he would nail me with fees half way through the case holding me hostage, but this did not happen. He is a NO BS attorney, this guy truly saved my life and I highly recommend him.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
