Being represented by Mrs. Pratt and her staff was an absolutely upsetting, frustrating, and disappointing experience. Despite knowing Colleen Pratt and dealing with her personally for over 20 years, her treatment and conduct were not only unprofessional but also very hurtful. I have many years of legal experience, and I'm shocked by the unprofessionalism I received from Mrs. Pratt and her team. Despite referring multiple family and friends to her firm, I was taken aback when Mrs. Pratt implied that I said she didn't care about her clients. This claim is not only false, but also absurd given the number of referrals I've made to her directly. I was left to handle critical aspects of my claim including personally picking up my medical records from hospitals, scheduling my own MRI, obtaining the MRI results, obtaining additional pertinent documentation, and ascertaining my own Orthopedic treatment. Making matters worse my claim was accepted and she did nothing to obtain what I was entitled to. I needed an orthopedic and she sent me to a chiropractor which, frankly made my condition worse. Her office failed to secure necessary evaluations and treatment for my debilitating injuries, and my case sat in limbo. I was often alone on conference calls with her staff, as Mrs. Pratt was never present. When I switched attorneys, I received 4x the offer Colleen presented me with, plus benefits such as my back TTD benefits owed to me, current benefits, penalties, mileage reimbursement and anything else I was entitled to. To make matters worse, Mrs. Pratt implied that I should settle my case quickly due to my sister's passing, completely disregarding the severity of my injuries and the impact on my life. To top it off, Mrs. Pratt is seeking attorney fees for work she didn't do - I'm the one along with my husband's support who did the work & heavy lifting on my case. I have plenty of documentation to support my claims. I strongly advise others to research their attorneys carefully before hiring anyone. I am more than extremely grateful for the representation I obtained in place of Colleen Pratt, Esq. LB read more

Colleen Pratt represented me. It was a long, drawn out process. But worth every second I waited. Highly recommend her! read more

I'm so grateful that I had Pratt Law to represent me for my worker's comp case. From the beginning till the very end they were there with me through every step off the way. It was easy to talk or text someone when I needed help with questions. I never felt like I was left in the dark, they sent me videos on what the process was gonna be like and it was very helpful. Mayra was the one I was in contact with and she was able to get me more than I expected and I appreciate that! Thank you Pratt Law! read more

Getting injured at age 19 at work was probably the worst thing that has ever happened to me. Pratt law literally saved my life. They fought for me, stood up for me, and responded very quickly to my concerns. I will always recommend Pratt law. I received the care I needed and a great settlement. read more

Ms. Pratt is belittling, condescending and arrogant. She literally told me she would Not explain different aspects of my Case "more than Once". If I didn't understand, the first time, too bad. I also had multiple office staff tell me they Don't have time to call me or reply to my emails because it takes too much time when they are working on other things. This Firm couldn't even get the Insurance company to correct my address until After my Case was settled. BEWARE! They Claim they have the Client's Best Interest but that was 100% a LIE in my case. If I could get them to respond, phone was the preference because I couldn't prove how they spoke to me or the lies they were telling me. It got to the point where I communicated via email primarily so I had Proof of lies they told. They would say they were filing motions but when I requested Proof, they couldn't provide any. They told me they were looking for Doctors for me but when I asked for Names, Addresses and Phone Numbers of who they contacted, they couldn't provide me a single name. I told them, the day I hired them, I just want to settle. Pratt Williams was my second Attorney. I had already gone through years of wasted time. My percentages of Disability were already determined. I was already declared Permanently Disabled. All Pratt Williams needed to do was Settle for me. They didn't Care what I wanted. They had their own agenda. I felt like they dragged out my case so they could say they put in as much time as my first Attorney so when my Case settled, they could claim at least half the Attorney fees. I had such a bad experience with this Firm that I Filed complaints with the Bar Association against Colleen Pratt and Erik Stenberg. read more

Update: my attorneys working very hard for me and I appreciate all her help! Workers comp is a very difficult and broken system. I realize this and through it all the applicants attorneys work very hard to get everything they can for us injured workers! read more

After about 6 months on Workmans Comp,The Attorney's finally got around to reading my Casework a few hours before my deposition. Prior to the deposition I was told by a A&P secretary to not contact them and I would be contacted if any information was needed. The Case was settled without any help or advice from my attorney Josh. I wanted to entire ordeal to be over and I went ahead and took the first Offer. I would have been better off negotiating everything by myself as A&P did little to Nothing for me.. After speaking with a couple of other people concerning Workman Comp cases, I discovered I got a raw Deal. Recommend Ainbinder,,NO! read more

I was shot at work and was nervous about medical bills and disability coverage, these great people helped me when i was in a bind and helped me get set up with therapy and made sure i was granted what was fair and good.

I've gone to Pratt Williams for my husband's worker's compensation & also a foot injury that occurred with my mother at a nail salon. In both situations, Pratt Williams has gone above and beyond to help me. Aric Williams & Malia Falaniko are heaven sent. The outcome of for my mother's injury would have not ended the way we wanted if they were not persistent. Insurance companies tend to low ball & they were not settling until they felt it was a fair amount. THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! I have nothing but good things to say about Pratt Williams and I don't refer unless I've had an exceptional experience. So if you're reading this, trust me when I say they will do everything they can to make sure you are taken care of. read more

Overall I have been very satisfied with Pratt Williams and their team! I've referred them to a few family members and friends. Thank you for always being there to answer any of my questions. read more

I contacted this firm regarding a workmans comp case. Colleen indicated they would take the case and assist me in the workmans comp case then.......NOTHING. No contact from this firm. Kind of odd for sure. I'm certain it was a blessing in disguise if this is how they operate. read more

This firm recently represented my husband in a case against his former employer. They were thorough, kind, and we were satisfied with his settlement. We called several attorneys before deciding on this one and we are glad we chose them! read more

Hi i gave This law office a 5star a good friend of mine referred me to them & I was so happy that he did because they are the Best my case was fast & my settlement was way more then I thought, I highly recommend Colleen Pratt she's wonderful.. I promise you will not be disappointed oh & if you have any questions there right there to help you.. Thanks so much Ainbinder & Pratt read more

Last year I was injured on the job and truthful had no clue what to do or how I was going to do it. After searching around, I chose Ainbinder & Pratt to represent me for my case. Given my age, I have no clue how Workman's Comp works nor did I ever think I would be placed in a position where I would be injured enough to need it. It was a scary experience but now that it is all said and done, I am so thankful I chose Ainbinder & Pratt for my case. The staff is very friendly and prompt. They explained the whole process to me step by step and my case also settled approximately to when they said it would. Malia was very informative whenever I called. I had so many questions and she had an answer for all of them. They made sure I was seeing the right doctors to receive the help Workman's Comp was denying me and basically lifted all the burden off my back so all I had to worry about was my recovery. To anyone looking for representation, I would highly suggest them. read more

I had an injury on 2015. Searching on Yelp for a good lawyer I can across this firm. Best thing ever! I'm so happy I found them. Nick was very helpful first time I when in. Josh handle my case and was the BEST!!! I normally don't write reviews for for them I HAD to. I would most definitely recommend them. Josh and Nick if you guys read this, THANK YOU so much for everything I'm truly grateful for the help and fighting for me and what was right. Will forever be grateful to you guys. Thank you!! read more

Last year, I encountered a personal injury and chose Ainbinder & Pratt Law to represent my case. I chose their office due to the close proximity to my home, but stayed with them because the initial contact when I first called, put my mind at ease. I spoke with Malia on the phone and she was very pleasant and professional. Despite the many questions I asked, she answered what questions she could...and I never felt like she was trying to get me off the phone. She was patient and understanding and advised me to come in for a consultation with Ms. Pratt so that she would be able to better answer any questions that Malia could not. I set an appointment and went in. During my office visit, the application process was easy and meeting with Ms. Pratt solidified the fact that I made the right decision in choosing them to handle my case. Ms. Pratt heard my story, and gave me her professional opinion on how we should proceed. She was extremely knowledgeable, and thoroughly explained what the process of pursuing a Personal Injury case would entail. In the following months after, their continued hardwork on my case proved just how above and beyond they go for their clients. Despite Ms. Pratt being the main attorney to handle my case, I was able to speak with other attorneys like Mr. Ainbinder and Mr. Josh Harrer, whenever Ms.Pratt was unavailable or out of the office. They both were equally knowledgeable, professional, and provided the same quality of service as though my case were theirs. I appreciated knowing that someone was always available to help. My case finally settled and I actually got back more than I had anticipated. I was more than satisfied and beyond happy that I chose them to handle my case. Not that I ever hope to get injured again, but if I ever do...they would hands-down be my #1 choice. I recommend them to anyone looking for Personal Injury or Workers Comp Legal representation. They are awesome!! read more

They were definitely on my side. All I did was pick up the phone and made the call. The results were on point! They really helped me. Thank you Colleen and team! read more

Isabel is the bomb. So are Anna and Malia!! If you're looking for wonderful representation, they are the ones to call. They were able to get my settlement fast and coached me through the way of my doctors appointments!!! Thank you A&P!!!! read more

I worked with Josh and Carol on my personal injury claim. All the staff at a&p are great they were supper helpful from day one and continue to follow threw with you after your case closes. They make you feel at home. Thanks guys -Chris Dee read more

Beyond grateful for Ms.Pratt and her team for all they have done for me. After being in a accident at work Ms.Pratt took great measures to ensure that my health was taken care of, all while procuring a maximum settlement. Their professionalism and dedication to their clients is unsurpassable. I was in good hands through the entire process. Highly recommend .Thank you for everything. My gratitude is immeasurable ! read more

If you are on worker's compensation please go to Ainbinder & Pratt, you'll be doing yourself a huge favor. I've been dealing with worker's comp for 4 years and I know I couldn't get the results with the awesome team of attorney Josh Herrer, Maliah & Naja. If you go to them with a little common sense that you are not there to win the lottery but get the help you really need, you will be more than satisfied. I finally got the back surgery I desperately needed and received a fair settlement. Worker's compensation is an evil system that can take years to resolve so it helps to have attorneys to rely on. The system is seriously flawed and I know that without the help of my husband and Ainbinder & Pratt I couldn't have made it. This a lot of sunshine in blowing towards these lawyers but I'm free finally to move on. read more

I was searching for a good personal injury lawyer and I think Ainbinder & Pratt are one the best out there. I was dealing with Cindy she a wonderful receptionist she called me and kept me updated on everything that transpired. Josh was my attorney he did an excellent job he walked me threw and prepared me for everything the defense attorney was gonna ask me .Overall this is a great company I would recommend anyone to them.I Personally wrote this review because Cindy & Josh did such an outstanding job very professional and straight to the point -Jayson Holmes read more

Collen -- You never met me, your associates made promises they could never deliver on, let opposing counsel delay litigating my case, cancel depositions, PQME in July of 2018, never once read my file and I gave you blocks of months when I was available for hearings, Depo's, PQME, etc. You threaten to drop my case, if I did not appear for these hearings. You did nothing to get my travel expenses paid for PQME, Deposition and traveled internationally on 3 occasions, for these events and then have the opposing Counsel cancel the depo. and the Doctor the PQME. As soon as she dismissed herself from my case, she filed a "lien", with the court to get money if I were to get an award for medical injuries, loss of wages and travel expenses. In 3 years I have not received medical treatment, lost wages, or disability insurance for my case. Granted she had the case for 8 months and did little to nothing, I recovered no damages. Doesn't listen to her client is unprepared. Read the Review from "Corey" below and you see the pattern. ITS ALL ABOUT THE POTENTIAL SIZE OF THE AWARD, SHE DOES NOT GET INVOLVED but dishes the small cases to underpaid paralegals. I've never experienced such unprofessionalism with legal representation. Not an advocate for your side, but "Show me da Money" Cases. Avoid the frustration and incompetence and keep looking. read more

Would strongly recommend to my friends and family. Ms.Pratt handled my workers compensation claim in a quickly matter and was so knowledgeable on the case. She was very detail oriented and was always one step in front of me. She gave me great advice and explained all of my options very thoroughly. I am very satisfied with the service I received was quick and efficient in assisting me with my legal matter and I feel very fortunate to have her assistance in bringing a positive resolution to my case. She's easy to talk to and always responded to my calls, messages and emails. Thanks again Ms.Pratt and Ana !!! read more

I used this law firm for my workers compensation claim and they handled all my needs so I wouldn't be bothered with the headache of doing it my self. Yes I would recommend to friends and I would use them again. read more

Ainbinder & Pratt was a real disappointment , in the beginning I thought I hit the jackpot but boy I was wrong 1 year of representation and all they did was nothing - oh I'm sorry they did file my workers comp claim - so I stand corrected After the non-communicative work ethic that there staff uses and all the basic errors it was time to go I wasted a year of my life for NOTHING waiting for at least something Positive to happen, but it never came So as Donald Trump would say your FIRED !!! I would not recommend this attorney firm - if you want results read more

I came to this law firm knowing nothing. Once I entered their building the team were very welcoming! Keep in mind you need to have patience but rest assured you're in good hands! Nick is behind the scene working his magic! He has taken my case and I'm very glad to have met him! Nick, thank you so much for working on my case even though I was unresponsive at times. He has been on my side and fighting for me. He was able to win a very nice settlement. Nick, you're awesome! I would recommend him to everyone!!! read more

I have read the other reviewers and understand their frustrations but I am reviewing Ainbinder and Pratt AFTER having 2 other attorney's handle my Work comp case. The review is for 5 stars because it is as good as it gets. It isn't perfect and there are a lot of issues but now that I have way more experience than I ever wanted and a lot of research and insight into the very messed up broken system that we call Work Comp, I can tell you in all honesty that almost all of the problems I encountered from AnP were related to the way the system works and the insurance causing issues and not them specifically. When I did have a complaint it was addressed and handled. Phone calls were returned and the partners themselves would handle it. I requested specifically that Colleen Pratt show up for my trial even though a junior named Josh had done a good job at my hearing because I wanted the experience she had and I trusted her after several interactions. She did show up and did a great job! I started this nightmare with no knowledge of the WC system at all and just found the first atty that came up on the internet because the insurance company told me I needed one. I wasn't suing and just wanted to get back to work but they said the prolonged injury meant paperwork that would be too complicated without legal guidance. So I got the first one and they were beyond horrible. I won't go into great detail because I am not reviewing them here. I had them for 1 year and things got worse. I finally had enough and found another smaller attorney in the hopes that they would at least answer the phone. They were nicer and seemed more honest but still didn't get much movement. I finally changed them after I tried to call every day for a week crying because I was receiving no money or treatment and couldn't work. I was desperate as I could not pay my rent. I broke down on the phone and they were just callous and I never received a return call from the atty himself. I figured if he didn't care about me then I didn't care about him and I looked for another one. This time I had way more knowledge and did lots of research and found AnP. I called and got put on the phone with Ainbinder right away. He made an appt himself to see me the next day. He spent 30 minutes with me. He took my files and was brutally honest which I like. I signed on with them and in just a few weeks starting receiving treatment and weekly payments again. I have been with them less than a year and Colleen Pratt just settled my case and pissed off the insurance because they didn't want to pay so much. I can now have my life back and move forward to deal with my injury etc. myself thanks to AnP. If only I had gone with them first then I wouldn't be so bad off. Lesson learned For those unfortunate souls who have a work comp situation, keep in mind, it is the government and the way people have voted that have created this disaster and the attorneys have to navigate that. It isn't always their fault. If you do have to deal then go with AnP and trust what they tell you to do. None of it moves quickly but they at least try to help you. read more

Very professional. They took time to answer any questions when I would call. My workers comp case was a nightmare but became much easier to handle once they took over. I got a good settlement to end my case as well. I recommend Ainbinder and Pratt. read more

They did an outstanding job on my personal injury case, Dan and Josh were more than helpful and willing to answer my questions and to make sure I wasn't stressed out. Dan especially helped me out with medical bills and I received more than I ever expected. To Dan and Josh, thank you! read more

Michael Ainbinder is above board, honest and will get the job done! If you are a low-life just trying to milk the system for a settlement, A&P is not the law firm for you. They are ethical, thorough and settled my case within 6 months, AFTER I had been with another law firm for over 2 years!! read more

I initially choose a lawyer based on their gigantic ads, 9 months later, I have never felt so alone. The moment I called Ainbinder & Pratt I felt I like I was in excellent hands. My case is very small to them I am sure, but they don't treat you that way. These are extremely high caliber people working gor this company, and if they take your case, your lucky. read more

I'm so thankful for finding this law firm. They helped me in every aspect of my case. Everyone in the office is very pleasant and was willing to help 100%. If my case manager wasn't available I was able to get an answer right away from any of the assistants. I was having a difficult time with the insurance company dragging their feet and I THANK the attorney who helped me to settle my case. Would truly recommend Ainbinder and Pratt if you have any issues with workers comp. read more

So let me start off this reviewing saying I don't like to write negative reviews and in fact I hadn't even planned on writing a review, however I was solicited by the firm to leave a review and even sent an email asking would I recommend them to family and friends? The answer is No. So here's my honest opinion of what I experienced. Initially I suppose because they wanted my case, I was responded to quickly and with a letter or a call from Mr. Ainbinder if I recollect correctly. It's been almost five years so some of the particulars might be a bit hazy. I remember this impressed me. I felt important. I felt heard. I felt like the head guy cared and had taken the time to speak with me directly. This was after thumbing through google and speaking to several other attorneys. I had never had a law case and didn't know what to expect or how to pursue one. I was in excruciating pain and had four herniated discs in my cervical spine which I wound up being on disability for about a year. As my case started that was the last I ever heard or spoke to Mr Ainbinder. Obviously. My case was small potatoes. To be expected. My case was given to someone else. I'm sure that's how they get you by thinking wow, the head guy called me ! That might sound sour but I had no rancor about this I didn't expect to be handled directly by the head of the firm Well as anyone knows who's had a severe injury about how those first few months or even longer of being in agony and being alone and fighting to just to live and cope and take care of yourself , let alone have the energy to fight to pursue legalities, burearacracy, and to get medical treatment, it is a nightmare. I would like to be able to say that I felt warmly treated , almost like family , cared about , important and meaningful but in the four years my case took I was passed around a couple times to different attorneys , my phone calls went many times unreturned, I had to call repeatedly as their was no proactive communication from them , when I was able to speak to an actual attorney which was infrequently they either seemed unaware or not up to speed on my case (I'm sure they have hundreds) in short I felt like I was a bother and hassling them to pull teeth to get any information. In particular Malia my point person who often didn't return my calls on time or at all , resulting in multiple phone calls was not warm, she was curt and felt borderline condescending at times. I was put in a position of having to try to smooze and be on bended knee every time I dealt with them to try and get any information. After nearly four years As to my settlement? I got one. Was it anywhere near what I felt was worth what I went through. No. But that's subjective. I'm sure I put a greater price on my health than the system. Was it their fault it I didn't get want what I wanted ? I can't say I'm not an attorney. Did they fight for me or settle to easily ? I don't know I wasn't there. But in the four years that I interacted with them. Did I feel like they gave a shit? No. Did I feel heard or listened to ? No. Did I even feel responded to in a timely manner ? No. So if money and a settlement is what you care about and you don't care about how you are treated then maybe this is the place for you. If you want to feel heard , understood, like someone cares and is fighting for you? Well I felt like a number. I don't know if this is helpful to anyone. I don't know if the law or a case is wrong place to be having these expectations but that's how I felt. See for them , maybe this is just business ,for me ,it's my life. And In the end would I go back to them or even recommend them. Nope. The rest is up to you. Good luck. As Maya Angelou said : People May forget what you said and did but they will never forget how you made them feel ........... read more
