Ethical – Professional – Successful

A victim of medical malpractice is in an intimidating, frightening position. Lee Eidelberg accepted my case and guided me through a long, complicated process. He was deliberate in making sure we understood the options at each juncture. Throughout the months of preparation, he demonstrated extensive knowledge in the complex medical issues concerning the specifics of the case. Prior to trial, he walked us, and our witnesses, through depositions and practice trial testimony. At trial his demeanor with the court and jury was precise and compelling. His witness examination was insightful, on target and effective. His presentation demonstrated the highest example of ethical and professional standards. In court Lee gave voice to the injustice I suffered. He won my case. He also won my deepest respect, gratitude and unqualified endorsement. His presentation demonstrated the highest example of ethical and professional standards.

Personal Injury Representation for My Daughter

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Lee Eidelberg for the superior representation he provided for my daughter. Three years ago my daughter and her boyfriend who were riding a motorcycle in Ocean City, MD, were run down by the driver of a station wagon. My daughter’s right leg was broken and her boyfriend suffered a hematoma to his right leg. After the collision, my daughter and her boyfriend returned to DE where they resided. We requested a copy of the police report and we were all shocked to learn that although the report cited the driver of the station wagon to be at fault, no charges had been filed against the driver. My daughter and her boyfriend were on pain killers and dealing with their injuries but knew that they should seek legal counsel. At the time one of my husband’s co-workers mentioned that his brother-in-law was an attorney who represented personal injury cases and we arranged for a consultation with him. The consultation was brief and the attorney agreed to represent both my daughter and her boyfriend. The attorney requested that my daughter and boyfriend sign medical releases because he would need them to obtain medical information on their behalf – they signed the releases. The attorney was shuffling papers and asking for additional signatures and in the mix they signed a contract for his services without actually being aware of the type of contract they signed until the attorney dropped my daughter’s boyfriend a month later while they were engaged in a conversation over the phone and the attorney sent his file to him. My daughter’s boyfriend was relieved when his attorney stated that he hadn’t really done anything for him and didn’t need to pay him for his “service”. The attorney kept my daughter as a client. My daughter suffered extreme anxiety while being “represented” by her DE attorney because he failed to communicate the legal process to her; did not return phone calls promptly; and demanded that she place calls to her human resource office and The Hartford or anywhere else he deemed a phone call necessary. The attorney finally notified my daughter that because the injury occurred in MD that he would have to turn it over to another attorney who could represent her in MD. My daughter was relieved but still worried about having to pay this horrible attorney. My daughter researched two attorney’s through AVVO and had consultations with each (I went with her to both consultations). My daughter chose Mr. Eidelberg, or Lee as we quickly became comfortable with calling him, and she never had to regret her decision. Through the three years that it took to reach a settlement Lee was just a moment away from ANY concern my daughter had – he would address the issue professionally and if warranted, inject humor, as well. Lee is an outstanding communicator – he listens, processes, and responds so that whomever he’s holding a conversation with understands fully what is being addressed. I believe this unique quality makes Lee so successful. If you feel that you need a rock to get you through an impossible situation where legalities are involved, I suggest that you contact Lee Edielberg immediately. Thank you Lee, and thanks to your staff, as well.

Personal Injury – Motorcycle collision

I was involved in a motorcycle accident, where I suffered a broken leg that had complications while mending. As a result of my injury, I lost my employment for 11 months. I was represented by an attorney who I felt wasn’t working for me but rather for a payout and didn’t communicate accurately the happenings of my case. Because he didn’t represent me in a way I felt he should, I became proactive and sought the help of the State Attorney and began researching other attorneys for representation.

I found Lee based on research I did when seeking a replacement attorney. All reviews said he was knowledgeable and assisted in receiving a just settlement. I met with him first for a consultation and was given the impression that the reviews were in fact accurate and later hired him based on my consultation. After hiring Lee, I had a sense that my case was now in much better hands as he kept me up to date on any and all proceedings (something that was lacking with my previous attorney). It didn’t matter if it was something trivial; if I had a question or concern Lee didn’t hesitate to answer and in terms I could understand. Many times throughout my case I felt exasperated and ready to give up but Lee encouraged me to hold fast and gave me the strength I needed to follow my case through to the end (three years later). His team (although it changed throughout my case) also worked diligently at keeping me informed and up to date on all matters that needed attention. Lee does expect his clients to be involved when necessary which is something my other attorney lacked. I truly felt he had my best interest at heart. Lee was ready to go to trial if need be but thankfully we were able to reach a settlement at mediation. Whether I think it was just or not does not affect my opinion of how well Lee represented me. In any lawsuit, a settlement never truly compensates a victim to what they feel they are owed, however I feel Lee tried and did the most he could to see that I received a fair settlement that would not put me at risk of being drug back into further legal proceedings.

Awesome Lawyer!!

First let me say that I have NEVER written a review in my entire life. However, I had to write this review regarding my remarkable experience with Mr. Eidelberg. Mr. Eidelberg is one of the most skilled attorney’s one will ever meet. I found him here on Avvo for my son who had gotten himself into a mess with several speeding tickets. I emailed Mr. Eidelberg explaining my son’s situation, and he responded back to me, having looked up and researched my son’s case, the same night with in depth details and explanations regarding my son’s options (before I ever spent a dime or committed to retaining him). My son had accumulated 9 points by the time I hired Mr. Eidelberg. Mr. Eidelberg was able to convince the judge to allow my son a 30 day restricted license allowing him to drive to work, as opposed to a full suspension. During this same court hearing, the judge did not notice that my son had gotten another citation in the meantime. He went back to court with my son, and remarkably, was able to successfully argue the officer’s testimony did not meet one of the elements of the citation. As a result, the judge found my son not guilty. Instead of just accepting what appeared to be inevitable (my son being found guilty with more points), Mr. Eidelberg actually fought for my son in court. On both court appearances, Mr. Eidelberg completely explained the procedure before going into court, the possible options and consequences, and what he thought to best strategy would be. He came through on both occasions! He encouraged my son to do what he could do regarding filing papers to keep costs down. For his skill level and experience, his fee is very reasonable. He even gave my son a good stern fatherly talking to about slowing down and not speeding; which was great so my son could hear the speech from someone other than myself and other family members. Hopefully, my son will slow down and I will not need Mr. Eidelberg’s services again. However, if I do need such services again, I will call on Mr. Eidelberg without hesitation. Great lawyer!

LOOK NO FURTHER

I retained Lee after an automobile accident. The case became protracted due to injuries I sustained and an initial unwillingness of the opposing insurance company to settle. Lee kept me informed every step of the way. His guidance and advise, and excellent lawyering resulted in a very fair settlement. There was never a time that Mr. Eidelberg didn’t answer a phone call or e-mail. He addressed every question I asked timely and truly had my best interest covered in this matter. Also, his staff is professional and attentive as well. It’s not often that I am willing to make a recommendation, however, Mr. Eidelberg is now my exception.

You Must Choose Him!!!

Mr. Eidelberg is an outstanding attorney. I was facing a really bad speeding ticket (90 in a 55) and was able to get probation thanks to a clean record, and his persuasion with the judge. Now I don’t have to worry about anything on my driving record. When I first contacted Mr. Eidelberg, he promptly informed me on every step I should take. He was easy to reach when I needed to get a hold of him. During our court date, he had everything fully prepared, and very organized. He takes his job seriously and has the best integrity any lawyer can have. If you need someone to represent you in court, you must choose him!

Great Estate Planning Attorney

We had the pleasure to deal with Jacob for our estate planning. His wit and responsiveness are second to none, and his fees are very competative. We were thrilled with his work.

A satisifed client

We’ve hired Mr. Rappaport to conduct various legal projects. He did a superb job and is an absolute pleasure to deal with. I would definitely recommend Mr. Rappaport for all of your legal needs. If it’s not in his line of work (estate planning/corporate), then someone at LEVIN GANN P A can help. Excellent attorney throughout.

Very Knowledgeable

I have found Mr Rappaport to be exteremely knowledgable and informative. He exudes a sense of confidence that I found lacking in other attorneys. We need more lawyers like Mr Rappaport.
