After a car accident, slip and fall accident or any other type of serious personal injury, you want to hire a lawyer that is right for you and your family.
You want to hire someone who will be attentive, understanding and who will treat you with respect and like a person (and not just a file number). You want to feel that you can call your lawyer and ask him or her any question, without feeling embarrassed or fearing judgment.
Before the era of the Internet and social media, the common way to find a lawyer was word of mouth. Referrals from previous clients (family members, friends, co-workers) are positive proof that a firm provides excellent client service and results.
Today, many people rely on Google searches when choosing a personal injury lawyer, and they gravitate towards the advertisements at the very top of the page or the side of the page. These are often paid advertisements, and are not indicative of a firm’s popularity or experience.
The best way to learn about a firm or a particular lawyer or firm is to read about them through reviews on the internet, and to visit their website, look to see how much experience the firm/the lawyer has in personal injury law, and what areas of law the firm/lawyer practices in.
A firm that practices in too many distinct areas of law, for example personal injury law, family law and estate law may not be the right firm for you. If you want a firm that takes your best interests into account, you will want a firm with experience and that focuses on personal injury law. A firm who solely practices personal injury law will be able to get you the best settlement and the most amount of compensation.
Something else to consider is, do you want a firm that represents both injured persons and insurance companies? Some personal injury firms also practice insurance defense. At Paciocco & Mellow, we only represent injured persons, as we believe that there is an inherent conflict of interest if a firm represents both sides.
Our lawyers have a unique perspective to offer clients. Prior to founding Paciocco & Mellow, Gino Paciocco and Jeffrey Mellow represented insurance companies in personal injury lawsuits. As a result, they have gained perspective on how insurance companies and their lawyers think and act when it comes to the different steps of a lawsuit and settlement. The lawyers at our firm can therefore provide their clients with realistic expectations about their lawsuit.
The law firm of Paciocco & Mellow prides itself on its reputation of excellent service and client satisfaction.
We understand how client may feel overwhelmed during the legal process and we strive to provide the best service possible and to help our clients in any way that we can, be it a referral to a specialist, rehabilitation provider, help securing a litigation loan or providing reassurance.
The law firm of Paciocco & Mellow aims to help provide you with Peace of Mind at a Difficult Time.
