Great settlement!

Attorney Kaufman represented me in a personal injury case. From the beginning, she did an excellent job. Things were explained clearly to me. The office staff was great as well. I was made to feel very welcome,in a friendly and professional environment. I found that attorney Kaufman and her staff wer...e concerned with me as a person beyond the injuries that they were representing me for. As far as my settlement, I was very pleased and surprised by the final amount I received. Attorney Kaufman did an excellent job in getting me significantly more money for my injuries then what I had anticipated. If I need a lawyer in the future I will use attorney Kaufman and I will also recommend her to my friends and family.

Excellent & Compassionate

I received a quick response to all my questions. Linda made me feel very comfortable to discuss my workers compensation case with her. She is a highly intelligent, knowledgeable and competent attorney. Linda made me understand the process and made it very simple and easy for me. The paralegal I work...ed on this case with went beyond the call of duty to sort out the supporting documentation etc. It was an excellent experience. I will hire Linda for any matters in the future and I am highly recommending Linda and her staff to all my friends.

Extraordinary Attorney!!

I was referred to Attorney Kaufman by a family member and am grateful that I was! My legal matter involved very intricate details and also was emotionally charged for me. Attorney Kaufman was alongside every step of the way to explain what was happening or answer questions that I had. She is super ...intelligent, thorough and accessible. She was dealing with extremely difficult adversaries and was never phased. My confidence in her made me much calmer. I did not expect my matter to resolve as successfully as it did but am thrilled that it is behind me now. I have Attorney Linda Kaufman to thank for that and I will use her for legal needs in the future as well as refer family and friends to her!

Excellent attorney

Attorney Kaufman did an excellent job in representing me from the time that I was introduced to her until now. As far as understanding how the process worked, Attorney Kaufman was available and clearly explained any questions I had and walked me through the process in a way that made it understanabl...e to me. She did an excellent job in securing a settlement for me. Her staff was very cordial and professional as well. I would most definitely recommend her for representation. Should I need an attorney in the future, I will most definitely return to Attorney Kaufman's office.

HORRIBLE LAWYER

OMG do not use Linda Kaufman as your attorney. I hired her for a personal injury case and it was a nightmare. The most unprofessional lazy, lawyer I have ever met. Her staff changes weekly and you can never ever get her on the phone. I was beginning to wonder if she really existed. When you call... on the phone it asks if you are calling on new matters, press 10 for Attorney Kaufman. She has no voice mail. It's such a joke. Then, trying to get your file from her so you can hire another lawyer is almost impossible. The new lawyer I hired had to reconstruct the file. I called her office, the new lawyer called her office. She would not give the file to either of us. Could never get her on the phone. How hard is it to copy a file? You would be better off representing yourself.

After successfully practicing law for twenty eight years, it is nonetheless disheartening to read negative opinion. Since the comment is anonymous, it is impossible for the firm to address what left an individual person with that particular personal opinion. Law Offices of Linda S. Kaufman prides itself in representing clients successfully and to their satisfaction. We have done so for over two decades and our success continues. Part of that representation includes the opportunity for any client to call and speak to our outstanding staff or attorneys. We strive to alleviate the additional stress of dealing with insurance companies and other lawyers for our clients so that they may concentrate on their medical treatment and recovery while we address the legal issues. Our ultimate goal is to navigate our clients through the process, which can become quite complicated, ultimately resolving the legal claim for what is in the best interest of our client. We take pride in our continued success and thank those who have allowed us the opportunity to help them in their time of need.
