Workmans Comp.

When my workers comp case was denied, I had to find a lawyer. A quick search in my area turned up Michael as a good choice. I had been denied all and any compensation and was facing surgery and unemployment without any income. Michael and his assistant Rose were able to get me some weekly payments ...and finally a settlement that was more than adequate. I feel that they were attentive and thorough in their handling of my case. When I had questions, they were able to answer them clearly. They were professional and polite at all times. Best legal experience I have had.

He's a great attorney

Attorney Chernick is an awesome Attorney. He has represented my brother twice for 2 different cases. My brother is very satisfied with his monetary suit. His office is very nice and clean. His assistant Glenda is so wonderful and very detailed. She definitely is the backbone for Mr. Chernick. I di...dn't get the name of the woman at the front desk but she was very nice. If you're looking for a personal injury lawyer look no further

Bus

I want to thank Atty.Chernick and his Staff specifically Rose and Glenda for all their dedication and hard work that they have done to get me to the final steps of a settlement!! Each one of these 3 people went over and above for many years working on my case. Rose was always available no matter when... I called to ask questions and if she didn’t have the answer she was quick to get me the information I needed! Atty Chernick at times would call me in the evening to give me an update!! I am so grateful for everything that all these wonderful people have done for me and my family!!
