I would say I have had the best experince with Malman Law so far. The ladies that talk to you are great to deal with. I personally dealt with Tracy and Jennifer but I can honestly say that I would definitely call them if I ever need them. We also got a welcome gift from Malman Law and the driver Paul who came to drop it off personally was great and kind. If it were possible to give them more than 5 stars I would..

All of my experiences with this law firm have been great so far! They always answer my phone calls the first time & direct my call in a timely manner. I have complete confidence that they will represent me appropriately & get me the compensation I deserve! I recommend them to anyone looking for an awesome law firm that will be professional, understanding, & responsive to all their questions. ????????????????????????

Received a very nice care package for choosing Malman Law. Absolutely LOVE the mug and glass (the colors of the mug are beautiful) and some cookies (I had to fight my 2 older daughters for). Very nice token of appreciation for choosing them. Don't know of any other Law firm that does that for their clients. It was much appreciated.

2 years ago I slipped and fell. I called Malman law, Adam meadows help me. Just got paid. Very happy with my money. I’m going to buy a new car right now!!! Thank you Steve Malman for having a great bunch on honest Lawyer and staff..

My lawyer David is awesome and Paul is a great driver. I highly recommend Malman Law for any cases dealing with mishaps with nursing homes such as myself. They have been great help and very patient and they give you an explanation on anything you ask for like how your process is going or something. Love them.

Amazing! Compassionate! You will not be disappointed! These are just a few words that come to mind when it comes to Goldberg & Schulkin Law. Look no further if you want justice for a loved one or for yourself. They treat you like family and genuinely care about your case. Mr. Schulkin will see it through to the end and he has the patience of a saint. He is in a class of his own. The five star rating doesn’t even begin to touch the surface of this law firm. They did not miss a beat even through a pandemic! Call them, you will see for yourself what I’m talking about!

If you are looking for a compassionate, understanding, and helpful law firm, please consider Goldberg & Schulkin Law Offices to represent you. My family and I had a wrongful death case that we received nothing but great bed side manner and understanding throughout the whole process. I highly recommend this law firm. Jeff Schulkin was the best lawyer I have ever met . Thank you again for everything you did for our family.

If you are looking for a lawyer who will dedicate their time and energy into representing you, I highly recommend Jeff Schulkin of Goldberg & Schulkin Law Offices. Jeff represented me in an auto accident in which I sustained permanent injuries and my insurance carrier did not want to pay for my injuries and subsequent surgeries. The case took almost 4 years to resolve (due to my insurance company) but never once did I have to worry that Jeff wasn’t going to fight for what I was entitled to. Jeff goes above and beyond for his clients. He gets to know you as a person and truly cares about your well-being. He will provide you with support when you start to get frustrated at your insurance company. He checks in and will keep you informed during each step of the process. He is professional, personable, caring and an excellent lawyer who knows what compensation amount you are entitled to and he will not accept anything less. After almost 4 years of fighting on my behalf, Jeff secured a full settlement for me. Had I not found Jeff, I would have received zero compensation for my injuries despite having insurance.

Goldberg & Schulkin law Offices go above and beyond for their clients! I was lucky enough to have them in my corner! I would recommend them to everybody.

I would definitely recommend using Jeffrey Goldberg law office. They are very knowledgeable, they know who to use as expert witnesses. They are not afraid of hard cases to win. If I ever had any questions they would always return my calls right away. I definitely had a great experience in times of trouble. It was a pleasure to have them as our lawyer. I would highly recommend them.

Don't expect much from these attorneys, like a return call or even that they remember your name... They have had my case for over 2 years and my new attorney never read my file and advised me to settle for almost nothing on a career ending injury. I would NOT recommend this firm.

I had the unfortunate experience of falling on silly putty that had been brought to a high school where I was teaching, and I fell and broke my kneecap and needed to endure two surgeries and much time off of my leg. Of course I was at a disadvantage and in a great deal of pain. Being confused, I procured the services of Ridge & Downes Law Offices to help me with compensation and assistance in making my difficulties understood by the Chicago Public Schools where the accident took place. It was clear from the beginning that my association with Ridge & Downes would be a smooth and beneficial experience, and that is exactly how my experience played out. I was kept informed in a professional manner, I was treated with respect throughout negotiations, and I was awarded a settlement that I would never have seen if I had to navigate this potentially negative process on my own or with a lesser law firm. Therefore, my case was settled in a timely manner and my respect for The staff of Ridge & Downes is immeasurable! A five star performance on their part!

I was Hurt badly in 2012 lost my left leg and destroyed most of my body. James Ridge and Amy lee fought endlessly for my rights and my benefits. Hopefully I am not hurt again but if I need to refer anyone to an injury attorney that actually will care Ridge & Downes is who you are looking for. Thank You!!! Ridge and Downes you saved my life and kept me from being homeless.

Don't bother telling people their cases are closed for over a year. Apparently of the person who injured you cries broke then this firm just gives up and says they can't be sued because they have no money. Amazing. 200k in medical bills I was hoping to get SOME of back but nope. Maybe they used to be good, they do not care anymore now that they're already rich as hell

They didn't go to bat for my family on the crestwood water case. They settled for millions & offered us less than $800 total. No amount of money will allow me to live my life after what my family and I have gone through but $800?! That's a slap to the face! Update: my mother passed away due to our case & that's still all we were offered.

Love them from the heart.. They are family... The best law firm ever live...

Great Firm, exceeded my expectations in terms of the outcome of settlement. Special thanks to Jay, Mike and Diedre

Working with Jay Deratany has been an absolute pleasure. If you're looking for a Personal Injury Attorney, a medical malpractice attorney, or a car accident attorney in Chicago... I HIGHLY recommend The Deratany Firm!

Went all out good communication and service.

They do not do anything they say they will do. My case is very time and emotionally sensitive yet they treated me like a nobody and blew me off after having me sign all these contracts.

Clint Pierce was my lawyer for a personal injury claim I had from a car Injury. He was able to get me the settlement that I was owed from the insurance company without any problems or hassle. Clint was very smart and respectful during the whole process. Thank you Clint !

Michael Mertz helped our family during a difficult time. He was very involved and stayed in contact with me throughout the case. Michael kept me informed and always returned my calls and emails whenever I had questions. Michael is an excellent attorney who is respectable and very knowledgeable. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Michael Mertz and his firm if the need ever arises again and I will certainly recommend this firm to family and friends.

My questions were always answered in a timely and restful way.

John Budin and the staff at Budin Law offices are exceptional and professional. They make you feel welcomed as soon as you walk in the door. My experience with them put me at ease with what I was going through. They kept me updated on everything that was going on and whenever I needed to ask them something they were always available to answer my questions. Everything was upfront and on point. I want to say a special thank you to Rosa. She was always very friendly and always helpful whenever I needed anything. I would definitely recommend anyone I know to them. I myself hope I never need an attorney again but if I did I know I would feel safe and at ease going back to them. Thank you again for your services.

Thank you for your help with this process. The information and suggestions you shared with me made it possible to make decisions that I feel were best for me. I appreciate that you always took time to answer my questions and that you explained actions taken by your office, the insurance carriers and other party(s) involved.

The best and most honest lawyer I’ve dealt with in my life. Also his assistant Ester Was so informative, caring and constantly checking on me. She kept me updated on my case. They did an amazing job at winning my case. I thank them a lot.

The entire law firm was very professional and courteous. They were very thorough through out my entire experience. I felt like everyone really cared about me personally.

John Budin@ Budin Law recently settled a claim for me. I was very satisfied with his work and attention to detail. I fractured my ankle 2 years ago. The insurance adjuster offered me a lowball settlement. I tried to negotiate with them and got nowhere. I was recommended to John Budin, who took on my case. He fought hard for me, not willing to accept their text book offer. He went back and battled for much larger settlement. As a result, I received a much larger compensation that included additional funds so that I could get more physical therapy treatments. Mr. Budin was very professional through out the negotiation process. He always explained what he was trying to accomplish. Ester, his paralegal was always available to answer any questions I might have and always so friendly. I highly recommend the services of John and his staff.

Larry Maya exels in Professionalism, Experience and Record of Success. He also displays an incredible passion for helping victims of negligence. He was very Empathetic and Understood my injury concerns. His personal touch was very refreshing, and his TEAM displayed timely and efficient communication practices. Simply put, Larry and his TEAM rock.

This was my first experience with an attorney, and I could not have asked for better representation. Larry and Jessica always kept me informed of what was needed if they needed anything, and Larry always called me with updates and the next steps so that I feel that they working for me on my behalf and most importantly... so very kind! It felt like a friend was helping me and that experience will always remain with me. I will always refer anyone to this office for assistance.. Thank you!

My wife had an accident awhile ago and Stone & Maya was referred to us and worked on trying to resolve the case with the insurance company. The firm kept us abreast throughout the process and explained the process and fee structure thoroughly from the start. As we waited some time as can happen in cases like this when it finally came time to provide a resolution to the case. I was contacted by one of the partners Larry Maya. He was very professional explained every aspect of the settlement details, gave his professional opinion on what options we had and also what he felt was in our best interest and course of action in resolving the case. He even explained in simple English terminology that was confusing and even how and why it applied according to IL law. The entire firms responsiveness was impeccable, meaning that within minutes if not a couple hours I was hearing a response back to any questions or responses back to my documentation sent. I believe they crossed T's and dotted I's to make sure that the final settlement was accurate and that there would be no surprises. All in all it was a pleasure working with them and I highly recommend Stone & Maya for any personal injury claims.

I was fortunate to have Larry Maya represent me. His legal advice was very professional and always available when needed. He negotiated a settlement looking out for my best interest. I’m very GRATEFUL I had Larry Maya as my attorney. I would HIGHLY recommend using him for any future services if needed.

Michael Brennan was my Personal Injury Attorney for both of my Motor Vehicle accidents. I could not have asked for a better attorney or staff. Throughout my traumatic experience they were there for me from the beginning to the end. Whenever I needed anything they were there for me and would always return my calls immediately. The result they got me was amazing. Thanks to them, I finally was able to put this incident behind me. I could not possibly recommend a better attorney. I promise you that you will not be disappointed.

Michael J. Brennan is an amazing and extremely talented attorney. He was quick, diligent and efficient in resolving my issue against a spa owner who was guilty of doing bad business. He persisted until the matter was justifiably resolved. Thank you again, Mr. Brennan.

I was recently in a car accident and fractured my right wrist, I am a dance teacher so needless to say this was very hard trying to to recover and work with a fractured wrist. I have never been through anything like this before and was not sure how this whole process worked. I was so overwhelmed. I contacted Mr. Brennan and he was amazing the whole step of the way through this process, even if he was not available his Paralegal was there to answer any questions that I had. I could not have asked for a better Attorney and staff to help me and the outcome was amazing. I would recommend The Law Offices of Michael J. Brennan to all my friends and family. Thanks again Michael and Staff you guys are the best!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Michael Brennan. We went to him after dumping a previous council because he was going to tell me to plead guilty. Mr. Brennan said "You don't have to hire me, but DO NOT PLEA" we took his advice and did in fact hire him. Thank god we did because he handled my case and got me the outcome I knew I deserved . I haven't met any lawyer more professional than him. Thank you again

This amazing lawyer got my felony case dismissed during the pretrial hearing. I can't thank him enough!

From Attorney Jonathan Walner, you can expect nothing less than the best representation for your personal injury case. Areas of focus include auto accidents, personal injury, motorcycle accidents, motor vehicle accidents, brain injuries, and back injuries aka lumbar. His active memberships in the American Bar Association aid in his progressed knowledge of personal injury law. When you hire Attorney Jonathan Walner, you can rest assured that your personal injury matter will be handled by an attorney who is resilient, focused, and compassionate. Attorney Jonathan Walner’s goal is to win the best compensation for his clients so that they may revert their lives to a familiar routine, following an accident or personal injury.

Fee Structure: The first question all of my clients ask when they hire me to do the personal injury case is, “Will I be having to pay any money out of my pocket to prosecute this case?” And the answer is, absolutely not. But if we do win your case, we take any and all monies that we did spend on behalf of you to win this case out of the settlement that you receive.

WORST FIRM EVER!!!!!!!! READ WITH CAUTION. •This place preys on people in accidents somehow gets your number and tell you that your insurance company has partner you with a lawyer who’ll be representing your case for the accident you were in. WHICH WAS A LIE, If they hear about a car accident they go digging for clients number. •They will rush you to physical therapy of at a place of their choice ONLY because they’re good friends with the chiropractor who they do under the table business with to get money. •They will lie to you about how much you will be getting paid! They will drag your case on to the point you’ll be obtaining your own information calling around hospitals and billing for months-years. •When you call to ask about a update they will claim the hospitals haven’t sent anything over and they are still waiting when really they haven’t even sent anything to the hospital.... SO THE PARALEGAL ASSISTANTS ARE CLUELESS AND BARELY UNDERSTAND STANDARD ENGLISH. THE LAWYERS ARE ILLITERATE. THE ONLY TIME THEY WILL SPEAK TO YOU IS FOR THE RECORDED STATEMENT AND SETTLEMENT. •YOU WILL DO ALL OF THAT TO GET A SETTLEMENT OF 2,000 or maybe 3,500 if your lucky! DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE THAT YOU WILL BE GETTING $20,000-$25,000 making you believe once everything settles you’ll be able to bounce back and have a few dollars left HIGHLY MISTAKENLY WE BELIEVED THEM! I WATCHED THEM DO THIS FIRST HAND TO MY SPOUSE •IF YOU BOTHER THEM THEY WILL GET MAD AND THROW CASE OUT

If there is any Law Firm I could have chosen, I would choose Walner Law Firm again. Kristin helped me in every way. She was there for me in my difficult time and she was very communicative and patient along the way. Thank you so much Kristen for being with me every step of the way. This firm was recommended to us from a family friend. Kristin is the best. Stay safe in these scary times.

This is by far the worst law firm in Chicago! If you get in a car accident DO NOT ANSWER THEM. Its been 3 months since my accident. And almost 2 months since my "physical therapy" ended and im yet to hear any update on my case. I have called all of their numbers available and no answer. The receptionist answered once and pretended like she couldn't hear me and hung up! That is definitely NOT PROFESSIONAL!!! After that the line rang and rang and rang and finally one of the operators answered just to put me on a callback list. I don't doubt after this they'll throw my case out! Let's see if this gets their attention atleast. They're just scammers. I JUST WANT A FREAKING UPDATE!!! DONT GO TO THEM!!

This people are by far the worst ever. They are ambulance chasers. What that means is they find clients through police reports and are so unprofessional. Valentina is so heartless and so is Jon Walner. They are rude people and they don’t help. STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AND DONT GO WITH THEM!!!!!!!!

The firm did a great job. Thankyou so much.
