THE BEST WORKMAN'S COMP LAWYER EVER! NOT ENOUGHT STARS AVAILABLE FOR MY RATING

I really don't know where to begin so I might as well start before I met Jeff. I was constantly worrying about my job and all their rules and tricks regarding my workman's comp. I was in fear everyday not knowing what was going to happen on top of the fact I am truly hurt and in pain. I really did no...t know which way to turn or who to trust. I decided to Google workman's comp lawyers. There were hundreds listed but only one stood out to me " Jeffrey Gross". I guess you wonder why he stood out. It was his picture that's all I had to go by and my instinct. What I saw in his picture was a look of Integrity, Determination and Sincerity. My perception was right on target. First impressions are everlasting. When I called his firm I left a message and received a call back within 10 minutes from Jeff himself. When I met with Jeff in person I saw the integrity and sincerity to help me. He said " Bruce don't worry about anything, I treat my clients like family". Jeff scheduled me to see the best specialist and doctors, transportation anything I needed regarding my situation. I required surgery and my insurance company was giving me a problem and Jeff called the doctor and said make it happen and it happened. He removed all the fear and anxiety that I had been experiencing throughout my ordeal. What really got me was when I had a situation and Jeff was out of the country on vacation. I texted him not only did he texted me back he called me while he was on vacation with his family. Remember when I mentioned Jeff said don't worry I treat my clients like family. In the beginning I thought that was just a phrase he used. After that and other numerous situations and there were many I knew it was not just a phrase. He truly took all of the worries away just like he said he would. In my book Jeff is family he looked out for my best interest all along the way even when I asked his advice outside of my situation. At the end of the day everybody's situation is different but what it all comes down to is having someone in your corner that is on your side giving you their all (and notice I said "All" not just a percent). That's what Jeff gave his all. It may sound like I am promoting Jeff and I am because the experience I had was way out of the norm and worth the acknowledgement. He touched my heart and will never be forgotten and alway appreciated. JEFF YOU ARE THE MAN!

Absolutely amazing! Literally works 24/7 If you need workers comp. lawyer He is worth every penny and he wins!

Best lawyer, had a separate case with another attorney, and Jeff Gross is night and day from that other attorney. He literally works 24/7 for you, responds quickly to any text, email, phone call. He's on top of everything. When we started the case he already had everything planned out i.e. go to ...this person, this person, etc. All well known and highly respected doctors, Harvard educated doctors and other people who recommends. Seems like all worker comp. attorneys charge 20% if they win, he really puts more then 110% in the case. He treats you like family. Not a single complaint. I am in York, he is in Philadelphia, and he will drive the 4 hour round trip for my case which isn't an easy case to prove, but based on the other reviews I am not concerned, in addition to speaking with him I am very confident in the results. If anyone needs a workers comp. attorney I'd go with him. I am a current client, I have nothing to gain by posting this, but I want people who need workers comp to know there is an absolutely excellent lawyer here in Jeff Gross to represent you hands down the best, this is based off 2 workers comp cases in less then a year. He is amazing, treats you like family, works 24/7 for you, is on top of everything and doesn't put up with anything from the other side. He will fight for you until the end to make sure you get everything you are entitled to and let you know everything you are entitled to. He is a superlawyer 2014,2015,2016 and that is not a surprise at all. Highly recommend to anyone!

Best of the best!

I met Jeff in July of 2015. I had been in a serious work accident and through one surgery when we met. My job and the insurance company were pressuring me to return to work, even though I was in no shape to do so. Jeff never allowed that to happen. From the minute I walked into Jeff's office, he t...old me not to worry about a thing. He said he would handle everything and not to worry. Now, I have never been a big fan of attorneys, so I had very little faith that Jeff would make good on the promises he made. He came through on EVERY SINGLE ONE!! Jeff returned every call I made to him, no matter the time of day or even the day of the week. He was always there for me and always honest. I know I was not the easiest client to deal with, but Jeff always handle me with respect and professionalism. Jeff referred me to the best doctors available-Doctors I truly owe my life to. From his staff to the coordination services and doctors Jeff reffered, all of them are top notch professionals and the best at what they do. Not only is Jeff a great attorney, he is a wonderful person and a man I now call a great friend.

5 stars does not show just how good Jeff is

It's rare that someone finds his first job and he is not only good at it but excels. And truly loves what he does. I settled my work comp in 2015. . During that time we had 3 hearings and we were granted everything from the judge.. I was a jerk at times.. pain I would like to think was the reas...on but Jeff understood and was thoughtful .. I would like to think he became a friend. We laughed joked cried from the emotions of past and present, and jeff gross made sure with my pain I had the best doctors and had my medicine without paying a dime for it. Jeff should have thrown me to the wolves the way I acted and the man actually gets it. Folks...He understands us, He knows what we are going thru. .. . even on vacation he would call me. From Angie to the rest of his staff. 5 stars doesn't say enough about this firm. .. and the man.. jeff gross .... it truly is not about the almighty dollar to Jeff. He had a family member lose in an accident and from that time as a teenager his passion for being there for everything a client needs to make them comfortable. Or they have their checks.. He made a promise back then, tgat he would help people like us by absolute best lawyer in work comp . Other attorneys only wish they could be that good . He truly was my miracle .
