Joe was phenomenal—responsive, knowledgeable, and extremely effective

I hired Joe to help appeal a claim on my father’s life insurance policy (which had lapsed a few months prior to his death due to extenuating circumstances, after decades of him never missing a payment). I wasn’t sure what to expect since I found his law firm by searching online, but he was phenomenal.... I really hadn’t expected to recover anything knowing how insurance companies work, but Joe reached a settlement on my behalf for 90% of the policy’s value—far exceeding my expectations. I can’t recommend Joe highly enough for anyone in a dispute of this kind. He was perfectly responsive, providing updates along the way (these things are often extended over many months by the insurance company); he was clear and always happy to answer questions; he was willing to fight hard (he negotiated up twice on the settlement value), unwilling to rest until we reached the maximum number anyone could’ve expected from this situation. Joe was also a profoundly decent human being, which may sound like a “nice to have” rather than a “must have” in an attorney, but it actually counts for quite a lot in a stressful, high-stakes situation like this. I’m sure that people’s reviews for lawyers are primarily influenced by outcomes following from their specific situations (much of which is outside the lawyer’s control), and by a lawyer’s willingness to take on a case (which contingency-fee lawyers need to be a little selective about, understandably), so it’s hard to know what to think when vetting law firms. But I will say this: I contacted Joe’s law firm with essentially no expectations (the life insurance policy in question *had* lapsed—that was the bottom line), and he not only took the case, but persisted for months and eventually reached a settlement that was almost the entire value of the policy. I would 100% recommend Joe to anyone in a similar situation.

He did the impossible!

After being told from multiple different life insurance lawyers that our case was a no go and that they wouldn't take it on we came here and were told they'll do it. And sure enough they won our case. Granted they are not magicians it was an extremely difficult battle but they did what many people to...ld me would be impossible and I'm eternally grateful! I would hire a hundred times over!

ESTATE TRUSTEE

I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT CHAD BOONSWANG, JOSEPH MATTIA ~ OUR LEAD ATTORNEY, CAROLINA; AND THE ENTIRE STAFF OF THE BOONSWANG LAW FIRM. MY CASE WAS THE DEATH BENEFIT FOR A SEVEN DIGIT LIFE INSURANCE CLAIM THAT WAS INITIALLY DENIED BY METLIFE. THE INITIAL LAW FIRM I WAS REFERRED TO BY MY TR...UST ATTORNEY DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WITH THE CASE EXCEPT REQUESTING MORE AND MORE DOCUMENTATION BEFORE THAT FIRM WOULD COMMIT TO TAKING THE CASE. THIS WENT ON FOR OVER TWO MONTHS UNTIL I DECIDED TO TERMINATE THIS RELATIONSHIP AND FIND A LAW FIRM THAT WOULD HANDLE THE CASE. WELL, I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO REACH WHAT I CALL "SUPER LAWYERS" ~ MR. CHAD BOONSWANG AND MR. JOSEPH MATTIA OF THE BOONSWANG LAW FIRM. I SPOKE WITH CHAD ON MY VERY FIRST CALL AND AFTER HEARING THE CONTENTS OF THE CASE HE SAID THIS IS A GO!!! THROUGHOUT THE DURATION OF THE CASE, THE WEEKLY COMMINCATION OF PROGRESS REPORTS COULDN'T HAVE BEEN HANDLED ANY MORE EFFICIENT. I AM ELATED TO SAY THAT WE EMERGED VICTORIOUS ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO IN SETTLEMENT OF FULL FACE VALUE FOR THE ENTIRE DEATH BENEFIT AND THE CHECK IS ALREADY IN HAND. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT I WOULD NEVER GO ANYWHERE ELSE SHOULD THE NEED ARISE, AND IT IS MY EVERY HOPE THAT ANYONE READING THIS WILL TAKE THE FIRST STEP IN CONTACTING CHAD OR JOE FOR THEIR CASE. SHOULD YOU WISH TO CONTACT ME TO FURTHER MY GRAND OPINION, I WILL LET THE FIRM KNOW THAT THEY CAN GIVE OUT MY PHONE NUMBER FOR POSITIVE CONTACT PURPOSES.

Boonswang Law firm is TOP NOTCH and They Know What they are doing!!!!

I HIGHLY recommend the Boonswang law firm!!!!! The Boonswang Law Firm took on my case when other Lawyers Turned me down and told me I didn’t have a chance with the circumstances surrounding my life insurance claim for my Deceased Brother. Not Boonswang law firm, they told me from the Jump they wi...ll accept my case and do all they can to bring it to a successful conclusion and that is exactly what they did. I HIGHLY recommend them if you are battling a life insurance company for the pay out that you are owed. Call the BOONSwang Law firm, they will do all they can to assist you. Their fee is 1/3, but that is better than you getting 0$ from the insurance company (trying to deal with them on your own) when they try to deny your claim unjustly. Attorney Joseph Mattia and Chad Boonswang are awesome!!! I will for sure use them again if I have a dispute with a life insurance company. Pringle Family
