Regarding My Car Accident of 02/2016

Mr. Drinkwater is a wonderful lawyer and person and his staff is just as wonderful as he is. Debbie, Tara, Lori, Stan and everyone in the office is always honest and willing to help you with any matter or questions that may come up while you are going through the legal matters that need to be dealt ...with. They are all courteous and professional and give each client the attention that they deserve. This is the second time I have had Mr. Drinkwater and his office handle my legal matters and they were great both times. I was so pleased with how professional they handled everything for me. Yet at the same time the comfort level they treat you with always makes you feel like family. It is nice to feel that way when you are already in so much pain and dealing with doctors, hospitals, physical therapy and so many other things that can make you feel overwhelmed. Talking to them or seeing them is like the friendly voice or face you need at the end of a bad day. They always seem to lift you up and encourage you. I would highly recommend Stan Drinkwater and his office to anyone looking for a lawyer to represent them.

Regarding my auto accident in 10/2013

My wife was in a terrible collision with a bus that made an improper turn. She suffered from a fractured lumbar spine, cervical herniations in her neck which causes terrible pain and radiculopathy in her extremities. The initial police report had found my wife to be at fault because they claimed her ...headlights were not on. This was not the case. Stan and his team immediately went into action and took care of that. This accident was no fault of my wife. Mr. Drinkwater and his excellent team then went to work on compensation for us. His knowledge of the law and his steadfast determination to make things right was comforting to us. Going through multiple surgeries, treatments and plenty of anxiety payed off in the end. Stan and his staff are just the best and they got the insurance carrier to settle. We couldn't be happier with the way Stan made us feel at ease even when we were so down about things. This is the Man you want to fight for you when you need justice. Thank you Stan.

reguarding motor vech, accident October 21, 2014

Stanley and Tara where wonderful from the very beginning of my case. Totally understanding what myself and my family where going through. They where always just a phone call away for any questions or concerns that we had. They helped me and quided me through my health concerns and my injuries.They di...d an amazing job in reviewing all the facts of my case and supported me throughout my settlement. They were always on top of my case and i appreciated all they did. I would recommend anyone who needs an attorney to go see them. You will not regret it. Thank you for all you did for my and my family.

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY & AN EXCELLENT PRACTICE

I was injured in middle school during gym class as a kid. The impact of the injury on my life was tremendous. But in obtaining a life-changing disability, I also obtained a truly game-changing advocate. Stanley Drinkwater, Ben Goldstein, and everyone at the office of Drinkwater & Goldstein fought to ...get me the recovery I deserved, and the medical treatment I needed. I couldn’t have asked for better, more knowledgeable, more professional, or more compassionate legal representatives. I highly recommend Drinkwater & Goldstein to anyone who has suffered a devastating personal injury and feels helpless. Stan & Ben are there to help.

Auto Accident

I was involved in a serious car accident in October of 2012. I had several injuries. After my accident I didn't know what to do or who to turn to. I called Stan Drinkwater and went in for a consultation. Stan and his staff were very caring and compassionate. They went above and beyond with their ...services to me. They found and/or recommended several doctor's for my treatment's and surgery that was needed. The doctors that they referred me to had excellent bedside manners and were very professional. If it wasn't for Stan Drinkwater and his staff I wouldn't have been able to find the right treatment and care that I needed. Stan and his staff were more concerned about fixing my injuries then just getting a pay check. I can't express enough how much I appreciate the time they took to sit me down and explain the long road and process I had ahead of me. I highly recommend hiring Drinkwater & Goldstein if you are looking for a lawyer that will be there and to look out for your best interests.
