Parker Waichman LLP helped me with my claim and proceeded to fight for what was right, just and fair. Their attorneys and staff were very professional, kind and understanding. I would furthermore like to point out that Benita Rollis was especially kind to me and extremely knowledgeable with explaining the process and what to expect. Thank you.

I want to give a heartfelt thank you to Ms. Benita Rollis for the exemplary manner in which my case was handled from the inception to the end. Ms. Rollis was compassionate, friendly, understanding, professional, accurate, informative and patient. She took the time and effort to explain the process, timeline, the various documents involved and how to go about obtaining certain forms. She was definitely on point. If I had to go this route again, I would hands down, choose and highly recommend Ms. Rollis because she is highly competent in getting the job done. She is a definite asset to Parker Waichman LLP. On behalf of myself and my family we thank you for a job well done. Be well and be blessed. Margarita R. Mitchell
