Please read this so you don't go through what my sister-in-law and I went through with the Law…read moreOffice of Miguel Palmeiro LLC. We were involved in a car accident in September 2013 where we were not at fault, and we used Palmeiro to represent us on the claim. Not only were they unresponsive to our calls/emails, it took an entire year in a half for them to settle the case, and for half of what we were seeking. Any time we did get someone on the phone, the person answering would have no idea about the facts of our case, and I would have to re-explain everything over and over again. On top of everything, the receptionist(s) were consistently rude despite the fact that we were paying clients. I would not recommend this law firm to anyone. Horrible customer service and an unforgivable lack of attention to their cases. Avoid at all costs.

I had the worse experience with this Law Office. Attorney Eric took my parent's immigration case…read morebut didn't listen carefully or read what we needed and he was about to begin a process for citizenship status versus permanent status. Feeling misheard, we (my parent's and I) decided to work with a different attorney and request the money back (1000 dollars). Eric mentioned over the phone on Friday, August 18th that I would receive my electronic payment credited back immediately. That didn't happen. A week later I called asking for the refund and Attorney Eric said that he is not responsible for refunds and that this type of thing "is out of his hands" after saying that he passed on the information. I then asked to speak with the responsible party and he sends me to Attorney Miguel Palmeiro who is the owner of the office. Once again I was promised to get my refund, but now over the mail since "it is complicated to process a refund on the LawPay system". Two weeks later, I still haven't received my refund and now they don't respond to my emails or return my calls. I don't know what kind of practice they are running out there, but the previous owner, Attorney Vitor Cuco was not this way. I am disappointed, upset and $1000 short. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS LAW PRACTICE TO ANYONE! If this is how they run a refund process, I wouldn't trust my papers with them. Marcele Viana

I could say so much about Shawn, but for now I'll keep it brief. I retained him to pick up a case…read morein DC federal court. And the rates were hourly and somewhat reasonable. But after 3 1/2 years of me feeding this case 10's of thousands and it creeping along, I complained. He was also helping me in another case, and I was not happy with him at either. I remember Shawn complaining to the judge that I was breaking attorney-client privilege with some of my rhetoric, and I thought, oh boy,y I'm in trouble, but the judge fired back at him, "It's his privilege," meaning he (Shawn) can't complain. Anyway, he dropped me in the DC federal case and said I didn't have the money to go on, had health issues, and staff issues. I was not happy with what I felt were mistakes on his end, so I asked Who would you recommend. I want to go with his recommendation because had I lost I didn't want Shawn saying he had dome a great job, but who I chose to go with after was the guy that screwed it up. Well, that guy charged MORE THAN TWICE as much as Shawn per hour, and didn't even have support staff that charged less for the mundane work. So obviously Shawn realized that money was not the real reason for dropping me, especially since I've been feeding this new guy for over a year, part of which was to fix things he says Shawn should not have done. So, can I recommend Shawn Bartley? in a word, "No", is he a nice guy? "Yes" But that's not why you hire an attorney. Perhaps later I will expand this review. Perhaps I'll also file with the "Office of Disciplinary Counsel" time will tell.

Sussman and Simcox has been my go to accident and injury attorneys since March 2015. Karen Sussman…read moreis awesome. She's attentive and very responsive. Both she and her office staff are superior and always on top of every detail from intake to settlement. If you are in the Maryland area and are in need of assistance with an injury/accident Sussman &Simcox are the way to go. They will provide you the highest attorney client services. I value their knowledge and expertise and so will you. They are honest and will be up front with no hidden agendas. They take your side and offer the best advice, always providing options and alternatives. They NEVER coerce or pressure you into making decisions that ARE NOT in your best interest. I put my trust in this firm the first time in 2015 and have since trusted their representation a few times more in 2017 and again in 2020 with a separate accident my husband was in with a former coworker. Each time this team prevailed with the best possible outcome. Let Sussman & Simcox "be the justice" you need! ~Signed "Long Time Client" aka Barbara G.

A friend of mine had been in a similar accident in 2000 and had raved about her lawyer. When I called to ask if she still remembered his info, she literally knew the # off the top of her head. I called, spoke to Jeremy right away, and met with him the same day. He got my insurance info, pictures of my damaged car, and set me up with a physical therapist to assist with my back issues. He got me a pretty substantial settlement, too. I'd recommend him highly to anyone who needs a personal injury lawyer.

Stu handled every aspect of the case for me in negotiating with the chiropractor, rehabilitation clinic, defendant carrier, and all other aspects of the case. He was there every step of the way to reassure and provide counsel during what was arguably one of the darker and more challenging periods in my life. I'm glad I reached out in contacting him the day the accident happened because I can imagine things would have gone much differently had I walked the path alone. I'm pleased to report that the case was concluded to my satisfaction and settlement and all is well. My health is fully restored and I'm glad to have the situation behind me now. I'd recommend Stu and his firm to anybody involved in a personal injury case. This guy is tenacious, exceedingly focused and a true advocate for his clients.

I highly recommend Law Offices of Stuart Plotnick. I was rear-ended by a FedEx driver. My SUV was…read morenearly totaled, and I was permanently injured. Stuart and his team were very responsive, gave me and my family the time and attention to really understand what happened and then went to work to get us justly compensated for our injuries. Sadly a lot of lawyers don't have the industry knowledge or negotiation skills to get their clients what they deserve. Stuart has both the knowledge and negotiating skills to get you what you deserve. If you've been injured don't risk working with anyone else. The Law Offices of Stuart Plotnick is the place to put your trust in.

Incredibly Grateful to Attorney William Inman Mr. Inman, who…read moreis a partner in the McCarthy Wilson law firm in Rockville, MD, resolved a long-standing dispute with an insurer in my favor. I signed on with Mr. Inman fully aware that his fee was limited by law, and would be minimal considering the numerous high-fee cases among his other clients. Thus, I expected little attention on his part while he naturally devoted more time and effort to high-fee clients. Surprise. Mr. Inman resolved my case on a fast timeline, was amazingly responsive to my phone calls and emails -- even on weekends and holidays. In addition, he won a significant financial settlement for me. In any legal action, you will find yourself working with paralegals, secretaries, and other support staff in the law firm. Their responsiveness and mindset about a client can be as important as that of the attorneys. In this regard, I have nothing but praise for the staff at McCarthy Wilson. To be fair, my excellent treatment at McCarthy Wilson may be the rule or the exception. I do not know. But I would highly recommend the firm to others in need of legal representation in the firm's areas of specialization and seeking justice. Give them a try.
