    At a time in our lives that was so stressful, Joe made the experience bearable. With his assistance we were able to secure an excellent settlement for our child who was in a horrible car accident. He found something that we would never have been able to find on our own.

    We needed an attorney for a medical case, and we were fortunate to have Laura Phillips on our side. In our initial interview with Laura, she displayed her understanding and experience with medical law. She carefully listened to our side of the case and made us feel that she cared for our welfare and our best interest. Once, we decided to make her our attorney, she quickly went to actions. She took time to answer all our questions and keep us informed throughout the whole process. We were well pleased with Laura Phillips’ efforts, and we would highly recommend her to others who are looking for an attorney to take your case.

    Joe is a person that I would recommend to anyone going through a medical malpractice similar to my situation. I went through a life-altering experience with a hospital in Pittsburgh and he never gave up on my case and really advocated for my needs beyond my expectations. It was extremely stressful not knowing what would become of my life especially with me having just my daughter and I. Joe made sure that I would get what was needed for my care and rehabilitation so that I could continue to live my life again. Coming from someone who didn't know much about who to trust and how to move forward in a situation like this I would recommend this firm to anyone who is looking to feel safe and represented.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

  • Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
  • Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
  • Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
  • City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
