One arm bandit
Attorney Seth is for sure a great attorney to have watch your six . If you weren’t in the military that mean to watch your back . He handle my case like a great attorney should and what you expect from a great attorney and even after my case is settled he still handles the little problems that will pop up from your insurance company not paying your medical bills that they should Pay One phone call from him and it’s taken care of and I would recommend Him hands-down 100% And I have recommend at least four people to him . Think of him as going into a hand to hand combat but he has a sledgehammer with him . That’s why when the insurance company sees his name next to your name On a leather head they know they’re in for a fight they won’t be able to get away with anything Or push you over

# 1 Workers Compensation Lawyer in Mass.
Mr Elin has represented my Dad. He has continuously gone above and beyond the call of duty to ensure my dad received prompt medical care. He worked extremely hard to obtain any additional monetary benefits as a result of permanent injuries. Thanks for helping my dad.
