Joel H. Schwartz, P.C.

After my car accident, I knew I couldn't handle things alone when the other driver tried to claim it was my fault. I found Joel H. Schwartz online and got lucky - spoke directly with Mr. Schwartz himself for my initial consultation. We had a great conversation and I was impressed by how down to earth he was. The whole team was wonderful. Stacia and Suzanne were always upbeat and positive. They kept me in the loop throughout my case - either by text or phone call. Anytime I had questions, they took the time to explain things clearly. I don't know much about law, and they never made me feel stupid for asking questions. They were patient and informative every step of the way. Communication was excellent - they usually got back to me within 24 hours. The best part was I didn't have to do any running around. Everything was handled by phone, which made things so much easier. My car was totaled, I had whiplash, and they made sure I didn't pay a penny out of pocket for anything. The outcome was even better than I expected. They fought hard against the rental car company that wanted me to pay for damages. I ended up with enough money to buy another car. The whole process went smoothly. My past experiences with lawyers weren't great, but this firm was different. They were professional, responsive, and made a stressful situation much easier to deal with. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing help after an accident.

From the beginning to the end. They where very professional with me answered all my questions. Got back to me either the same day or the next morning. Kept me up to date with my case. Very respectful, very informative of my case. I have recommended them to ppl n if need be I would use them again

Many of us hate Lawyers. Schwartz lawfirm will change your mind! I was seriously injured when struck by a car while in a crosswalk. I interviewed several agencies and one declined my case for several reasons. This was done through an email and I had to chase down someone to talk with for further details. Then, I called the Schwartz lawfirm. Completely opposite! All of their responses were timely. They knew I was searching for a firm, yet ttreated me as though I were a client. While again, the reasons for not moving forward with the case were clearly not in my best interest, they stayed with me on options to retrieve some monetary compensation without losing any money with attorney fees. If I were in need of handling the insurance, I could call.

My dad had multiple back injuries working in the produce department for 30 years. He was caught in this cycle - getting hurt, seeing doctors, physical therapy, then being pushed back to work too soon only to get injured again. We needed help. I found Joel H. Schwartz online but I was somewhat doubtful about hiring a firm I'd seen in ads. But they offered a free consultation, and we were getting desperate watching my dad's workman's comp situation spiral. John took on our mess of a case - the paperwork was all wrong with different injuries categorized incorrectly, like a jumble of string all knotted together. He never promised it would be easy but made us feel like someone was finally on our side. Lily Schwartz handled the Social Security disability part, dealing with all the red tape. They treated us like people, not case numbers. They remembered our situation and actually cared how my dad was doing. They got my dad approved for the back surgery he needed (not just the injections the company wanted to try), secured a settlement so he could stop working, and made sure he'd still be covered if problems came up later. Even after everything was done, if the hospital sent my dad a bill, John would say "Don't worry about it, let me call them" and take care of it. If you're hesitating about calling them, don't. My only regret is we didn't call them sooner. This isn't just some TV law firm - they do real work and get real results.

After being rear-ended in a car accident, my car was totaled and I was having pain in my sacrum area. Since I'd had a spinal fusion surgery in the past, I knew I needed to protect myself legally. From my first call with John at Joel H. Schwartz, I felt heard and understood - like a real person, not just another client. He clearly explained my options, the insurance process, and even gave advice on fixing gaps in my car insurance policy. John checked in regularly about my medical appointments and was super responsive - usually within 12 hours. The biggest relief came from how I could focus on getting better while they handled everything else. They got all the paperwork, and I didn't have to worry about the administrative stuff. When it came time to negotiate, John significantly increased their initial offer by nearly 80%, securing a settlement that approached the policy limit within about a week once talks started. The team was totally reliable - both Lily and Martin were helpful whenever I reached out. I've already recommended them to a friend who learned more in one meeting than she did in two years with her previous lawyer. If you want someone who actually cares and keeps you in the loop, these folks are your people.
