In June I had a car accident and I was hesitant to find a lawyer but my family urged me to. I searched the web and asked some co workers for any recommendations. One of my workers said the name Waichman found the web site of Parker Waichman and I called them. The woman who answered the phone was informative and compassionate. By that evening a representative from the law firm was at my home and answered all of my questions. With in the next few days I was contacted by several individual from the firm including a Nurse who continues to contact me on a regular basis to see how my recovery is progressing. I am happy my family convinced me to retain an attorney, I have received hundreds of papers from my insurance company and if I had to sort them out I would be lost. I feel confident that I made the right choice with the firm of Paker Waichman.

They worked great with my husband's case. Jillian G. was in constant communication with us. She was always available to answer any questions or concerns. Just the mention of their name to doctors and insurance companies received an urgency to provide service. I would totally recommend them to EVERYONE I know.
