Posted by Elise S. Nerenberg | September 27, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Car Accidents

Fantastic, Efficient Lawyer

While in graduate school, I was in a very serious car accident. A car hit me while I was walked across the street. I flew up onto the hood of the car and fell back down again. After a few minutes, the driver, held by two witnesses, left the scene of the accident. It was the middle of the Winter, I ...had a fractured shoulder and had to be in extensive physical therapy. With a sling on my arm, I went on the subway to travel to school extremely afraid that I would fall on the ice. For over two and a half years, I worked with two different lawyers. Neither of them could even find the driver! In just two short weeks, Sheldon Liebenstern accomplished what those two lawyers could not do in two and a half years! He found the driver of the car and got a witness statement. In a very short time, I received a fair settlement and was finally able to pay my medical bills. I have a tremendous debt of gratitude to Sheldon Liebenstern for all his effort on my behalf. Any time I know of anyone that is in a car accident and needs a lawyer I recommend him. I cannot say enough! Sheldon is a fantastic, efficient attorney.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
