If I have answered a question for you on Avvo, you should feel free to contact me by email with any other questions you might have. I am also here to help you find a lawyer to handle your case if it is out of my area of expertise, or if you are geographically out of my am a lawyer who handles auto accidents and negligence cases which include slip and fall, dog bite, product liability and medical malpractice, work injuries and social security matters. If you are injured, I will come to you. I also have locations to meet with you in Langhorne, Bensalem, Newtown and Doylestown.  I limit the type of cases I handle so that I can serve you personally and know your case thoroughly. Many times your problems can involve all three areas of the law. I feel that it is better to handle all of your problems through one office since there are so many issues that relate to one another and need to be coordinated. For example, if you are injured in an auto accident while working and cannot work at all, you may have cases in all three areas. Also, sometimes one benefit source takes an offset or a credit because you are receiving another benefit.  Knowing that two heads are better than one, I work together with experts so that I am sure to be current on the constantly changing laws.  This does NOT affect your cost for attorney fees in any have been in practice in Bucks County and the state of PA since 1981, and I know many attorneys in many areas of practice throught the state. If you have another type of problem, you can call me and I will try to help refer you to an attorney who can help.

Professional Attorney
Great experience overall having Joyce as my attorney. Truly a professional and marvelous individual. I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. My needs were put first and was treated as a friend rather than a number. My opinions were valued and my doubts were always reassured. My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained. Joyce went above and beyond and did everything she could to ensure a positive outcome.

Joyce Sweinberg was hired by me to represent me being involved in an automobile accident on Feb. 9, 2019. Joyce was extremely professional and did an excellent job. I was very pleased with her work and all the effort and time she spent on case. She kept me informed regularly and got great results. In a word she was great.

Outstanding
She got recovery, where I thought was none, by defendants actions to make me, & the accident seem incidental to their company from the first contact at scene...more than the recovery which is the objective, was the way she showed concern, consideration, & further displaying dedication, diligence, & transparency keeping me in the loop, with her contacts/meetings with defendants...I'm more than satisfied that she was my attorney, no feeling of being repped by a big outfit too big to consult with who they're repping !

Professional and compassionate
I have known Joyce Sweinberg for years. She has represented me in auto accidents and my work injury. She is extremely professional and knows her stuff when it comes to the law. She has helped me tremendously in all of my cases. In this day and age, you will find ads all over the place, but to find someone so human who cares really helps the process move more smoothly. Joyce is that attorney. She always gets me great results and I am grateful.

Thank you for writing such a nice review Brian. I enjoyed working on your case with you and your wife, and bringing it to a successful conclusion; quickly too!

Competent, honest and professional.
From the moment Joyce and I first spoke about my case, I knew that I made the right call. Joyce was always available and I felt confidant that my concerns would be promptly addressed, and my calls or emails always quickly returned. I highly recommend Joyce, and was elated with her excellent service and the results that followed.
Response from Joyce Sweinberg January 21, 2015

Joyce was a Godsend!
I was referred to Joyce by a co-worker who was an ex-spouse to Joyce. I'd been in a car accident while on work duty which led to needed advise for a discrepancy in my workers comp benefits. Joyce saw the clear discrepancy and advised me on how to reconcile that issue by contacting my wc claims rep and she also referred me to an associate who specialized in wc cases, in case my efforts were not successful on their own. That issue was quickly resolved but I suffered personal injuries to my shoulder which required surgery. The other driver admitted to being 100% at fault for the accident. Joyce ...along with additional colleges and associiates assisted me in securing a favorable settlement from both the other driver and my own insurance company for my under-insured insurance policy coverage. She also researched a lean against my accident settlements from the Workers Comp bureau of PA and found that there were monitary limits to the lean against my settlements and that I was entitled to the bulk of those settlements, which at first looked like the bulk might otherwise be expropriated. Thanks to Joyce, I was able to improve my financial outlook for my inevitable retirement.

Response from Joyce Sweinberg August 14, 2014
I am happy we were able to get you policy limits on both policies involved in your case and that you got to keep the bulk, so that your inevitable retirement can be more secure, Bill! It was my pleasure to serve you.

Caring and conscientious
Joyce showed genuine concern for my wife's health and wellbeing. She handled my wife's concerns promptly. She was firm in negotiating with the "other insurance companies" and made sure that we received fair compensation as the law allowed.

Satisfied Client
My Nephew knows Joyce personally and suggested that I call her when I fell and broke my leg in a snowy parking lot on a cold dark night a few years ago. I called Joyce and she made me feel confident immediately that she was on my side and would fight for me! She and her experienced staff took the reigns and handled everything from then on and though there were many tough days and nights due to the severe injury and surgery, I have never regretted making that call! Every step of the way, she kept me informed and up to date with what was going on in my case, when I was needed and what was needed from me. The result was a huge victory and a large cash settlement on my behalf! I have already recommended her to others and will again. Thank you so much for fighting for me Joyce! You are the BEST!

Pleasure working with Joyce
We found great satisfaction in our dealings with Joyce Sweinberg. She is very competent in her field. Joyce is very hard-working and reports back faithfully as to the progress of the case. We found her to be very approachable and sincerely interested in our case and well-being.. Her good humor and positive attitude were pervasive in her interaction with us.. Joyce listened well and did not make quick judgements. In a way, we are sorry to see this lawsuit end since we shall no longer need to be in touch with Joyce. She worked with "dogged" determination and was able to obtain a very favorable settlement in our case. We would highly recommend her as an attorney and a friend. Most sincerely, Charlotte S. and Jacob A.

Experience Counts
I have known Joyce for over 27 years and worked with her for a period of that time. She successfully handled my husband’s lengthy Workers’ Compensation case which required an attorney with expertise in that field. Joyce is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of law in which she specializes. She is compassionate and will take the time to listen and explain the process of any legal action that may be necessary. Many cases have multiple issues that should be addressed and Joyce will diligently observe and coordinate all aspects of your case. She is persistent and will work hard for the best result given your circumstances. I do not hesitate to recommend Joyce as an attorney who will do her very best for you.

Knowledgeable, Dedicated, Compasionate
Joyce is currently working on a personal injury case for my son who was hit head in a car accident. He suffered several serious injuries. Her knowledge and experience are forefront in her communications, which I think is key to any partnership. She has uncovered major issues that would otherwise has gone unnoticed, and for that I am truly grateful. I would recommend her to any one that is looking for a honest, dedicated lawyer that will fight for your rights and much more.

Extremely competent & Highly Effective
Joyce has handled two separate cases for myself and my family, both times with professionalism, courtesy and compassion. Both cases had favorable outcomes and I was entirely pleased with her service. I would not hesitate recommending her to anyone who needed legal advice.
