We love getting positive feedback - here is a wonderful letter from a very satisfied client! Ms. Silverman was kind enough to allow us to publish this and we are grateful she took the time to write about one of our talented attorneys and amazing staff!

"Good afternoon Ms. Stanton. My name is Jamie Silverman and I am a client of your firm for both Workman’s Comp Case and Social Security Disability.

I am writing to inform you of my experience with Adam Bogin from my Workman’s Comp case. I’ve had a couple of attorney’s all whom were wonderful; however, Mr. Bogin has gone above and beyond through his communication with me and I wanted to personally share it with you. He took his time with explaining things; and always has a clear and concise answer. Most importantly, my last hearing had me confused and anxious, and he never rushed me off the phone. I told him that I wanted to formally review him; however, since I have also reviewed my other awesome attorney’s and para’s, I didn’t quite know how to do it. He stated that I could contact you to get direction as to how I can formally review him and the firm.

Lastly, I can’t stress how happy I am that I chose your firm for both of my cases, and have referred your firm to others. Thank you for your time to read this email, and I hope you have a wonderful day.
Sincerely,
Jamie Silverman "
