15% of 25000 is 3750

I was in an accident in 2023 on October 3rd. I was already told that they take 15% out of your settlement. They called me a year later and asked me to come in to sign papers to start my case they said they already started. After the settlement was made I was told I was getting $25,000 on the phone. ...But when I got there I talked to a guy lawyer. Then he left and a woman come with some paperwork that said I was only getting $16,000. $3750 is 15% not $9,000. They lied to me so I would come in. My dog died from his injuries in that care accident due to his age. And life has been tough. I signed the paper, I shook the ladies and shook the ladies hand. I felt disrespected though. The male lawyer asked me to do a rating but I didn’t care to. Bottom line, the communication wasn’t good and honesty isn’t important to them. Thank u for the money though.

Best Personal Injury Attorney

Gary Young and his entire staff at Robert K. Young and Associates are compassionate, kind, result driven and responsive. There is no negative. He took a case that many attorneys denied and won 900,000 Plus....his first reaction was, are you OK. I have referred Gary family members and friends from ...all different ethnic backgrounds, religious beliefs and economic hardships. He is kind, compassionate and every one of them have thanked me for introducing Gary to them. If there were 10 stars I'd give him 20 stars. Thank you Gary.

THANK YOU SO MUCH GARY

I was hurt in a car accident and Gary and his associates made everything easy, they keep me informed and were with me all the way through my back surgery, they really stood up for me and put the time in to get and amazing settlement of 650,000. I wish I never was hit from behind and suffered like I ...did but at least I knew they would help me get the best settlement possible Thank guys so much

Personal injury case dismissed, no compensation

Pedestrian hit by a car in SUV, sustained arm fracture, recommended by dr. to Gary Young who accepted case saying he would do well for me. Months of grueling PT, saw all required drs, took EBT. Now told case was heard by a judge & DISMISSED under motion for summary judgment, not a dime recovered. ...Court documents state no x-ray of fracture was presented, and judge doubted I even had a fracture! Complete incompetence, no communication, DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Despite our best efforts if the allegation are not supported by facts the Court will dismiss the case.

Best accident lawyer in New York

Gary is hands down the best accident lawyer (firm) in New York. Period. I was recommended to Gary from a friend who received a substantial award in a car accident case. I never regretted my decision. Gary's office kept in constant contact with me throughout my case, most times just to give status up...dates. Gary was also very attentive to the issues. You can see the excitement and vigor in his voice and expressions with every up and down in the case. He essentially made my case his own. I truly felt like my case was his most important, although I''ve learned through the years (from others I have referred) that he brings the same amount of attentiveness and zeal to every case In the end, Gary secured a complete victory in my case, with compensation that far exceeded my expectations. I have referred other clients to Gary through the years that have all express similar sentiments. It's truly refreshing to know there are attorneys like Gary in the world -- those who are focused on the client rather than making a quick buck. my only regret in writing this article is the lack of additional stars, as five is simply not enough. Highly recommended.
