Becker, Kellogg & Berry, P.C.

I went to Becker, Kellogg & Berry for a personal injury I had sustained. At first, I wasn't sure if I should even contact a lawyer, but from the very first call, the team was reassuring and professional. They quickly let me know they could take on my case, and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. Mr. Mike McKay and Mr. Pol Aguirre were both exceptional. They were helpful, communicative, and cared about my situation. They kept me informed every step of the way and made a stressful process much easier to navigate. I hope I never need a personal injury lawyer again, but if I do, I will absolutely return to them. I highly recommend this firm, especially Mr. McKay and Mr. Aguirre, to anyone seeking dedicated and professional representation.

I was in a car accident in June 2024. Becker, Kellogg & Berry was the second law firm I reached out to, and the one I felt the most at ease with. Pol Aguirre was my point of contact with the firm, and from the minute I spoke with him he was caring, kind, knowledgeable, and honest. He was realistic about the time frame it would take to settle my case. He always got back to me in a timely fashion and always kept me updated on what was happening. He helped get me into physical therapy the day after my accident, without being worried about needing to pay the bill right away. Bethany Carey was my attorney and did the best job getting me the maximum amount of money. I had the best experience with this firm, and I would use them again. I highly recommend their services if you're looking for personal injury attorneys.

Great aw firm! Outstanding service from start to finish. This firm was a powerful advocate after my auto accident. They communicated clearly every step of the way, managed all the paperwork and negotiations, and ultimately won the case in court that fully covered my medical bills and more.. Special thank you to my attorney Micheal L. McKay for a job well done.

Becker, Kellogg & Berry: A Haven for Incompetence and Laziness! If you're seeking legal representation after an accident, steer clear of Becker, Kellogg & Berry--unless you enjoy doing all the work yourself while paying for someone else's staggering incompetence and sheer laziness. My experience with attorney Brandon M. Gladstone was a masterclass in professional negligence, and it left me questioning how this firm stays in business. Here's a breakdown of the nightmare that unfolded after I was rear-ended in Alexandria, Virginia. It started promisingly enough: Mr. Gladstone reviewed photos of the accident and eagerly took my case, promptly directing me to his preferred physical therapy provider. But that's where the competence ended. The police responded to the scene but didn't file a report--a fact Mr. Gladstone dismissed by insisting they were "supposed to" write one, repeatedly harping on how Alexandria police are "notorious" for avoiding reports. This wasn't just wrong; it was lazy. A senior insurance adjuster even questioned whether he was licensed to practice in Virginia, and a quick call from the police to me confirmed his error: Alexandria's threshold for mandatory reports is over $3,000 in damage per vehicle plus visible blood at the scene. Mr. Gladstone hadn't bothered with the most basic due diligence to verify local procedures. Why take cases in Alexandria if you're clueless about the rules? The incompetence escalated when the lead officer from the accident contacted me directly. He not only affirmed that the other driver was unequivocally at fault--citing her admission of a diabetic reaction and dismissing her flimsy lane-change excuse--but promised to reach out to the insurance companies himself, even providing body camera footage. I proactively looped in a higher-level adjuster, who collaborated with the officer and swiftly assigned liability to the other at-fault driver. All it took was one simple phone call to the police the day after Mr. Gladstone dropped me as a client to straighten everything out. Why didn't he make that call? Isn't that the bare minimum expected from a lawyer? If I hadn't been so hands-on, I'd have been left high and dry, accepting whatever scraps the insurance offered based on his misguided advice. His laziness could have cost me thousands. Then there's the physical therapy fiasco, courtesy of the firm's "arrangements." I wasted an entire day shuttling between the therapy center and doctor's office because Mr. Gladstone failed to confirm their billing policies upfront. It was a chaotic mess of miscommunications that screamed neglect--who sends a client into that without verifying the basics? Adding insult to injury, after his initial sales pitch with direct calls and texts, Mr. Gladstone had his assistant inform me he was dropping my case--no personal call, no explanation, just cowardice hidden behind staff. That's not just poor etiquette; it's abysmal client management that erodes trust and kills referrals. When I detailed the situation to a paralegal, the firm flip-flopped and offered to reinstate Mr. Gladstone. Why on earth would I trust him again after I'd already done his job for him? His tepid text apology--"I am sorry for the confusion about your case"--was the cherry on top. Confusion? No, this was outright incompetence and laziness. Imagine if a vulnerable client--like a disabled veteran or someone with cognitive impairments--walked into this firm without the ability to advocate for themselves. They'd be fed misinformation, miss critical steps, and likely settle for far less than they deserve, all because Mr. Gladstone and his team can't be bothered to do their homework or pick up the phone. Becker, Kellogg & Berry isn't just ineffective; it's a liability. Save yourself the headache and find a firm that actually earns its fees.

I highly recommend Becker, Kellogg & Berry, P.C. for anyone dealing with an auto accident case. After my accident, I wasn't sure what to do or who to trust, but working with their team turned out to be the best decision I could have made. From the very beginning, both Rita and Nathalie were professional, compassionate, and incredibly thorough. They took the time to explain every step of the process, kept me updated, and always made sure I felt supported.
