The Best Lawyer

In mid June 2016 my employer tried to fired me and end my medical + workers comp payments, after I was injured in march of 2016. The whole situation was so complicating and confusing. I had no clue on how to deal with the situation. Especially since my employer was being unfair and not following pro...per protocols. I knew at that point that I was in need of legal counsel. I literally googled best workers compensation Lawyers in Philadelphia and thank God (and google) krasno krasno & onwudinjo law firm was the top hit. When I called I was helped immediately by the intake team and my call was then transferred to Kelly Hemple. Right away I was blown away by her approach and knowledge during the course of the phone call. She was so well informed the with insurance company that was causing my problems. She knew the names of all the adjusters and the tricks that they were pulling on my case. I was also very impressed with her extensive medical knowledge. Another huge selling point was her career background, she used to represent the "other side"/ insurance companies for many years. So she knows all of their tricks and methods. Which was definitely evident during hearings. She was always two steps ahead and always so well prepared. She dominated every hearing. I am so happy that I had her as my champion in my corner. Since the initial in person meeting,she has truly worked tirelessly and selflessly. She was available 24/7 and even when she was supposed to be on vacation. She made it an effort to always check in on me and keep me in the loop. Had it not been for her diligence and her honest concern for my well being, my injury would have been much worse than it was. Kelly assembled the best medical team of renowned specialists and doctors to treat me. This law firm has so many connections with the best doctors, specialists, medical supplies stores, and pharmacies in state of PA. If one doctor isn't working for you then they switch you to another one of their many doctors, without any problems. Their main concern is doing what's best for you and what works for you. The level of attention and 5 stars service that they provide their clients with feels like thousands of dollars have been paid in retainers. When in fact it's all contingency based...It certainly doesn't feel like it. They work really hard to provide you with the best. Kelly, Thank you so very much for your services. You handled my two very messy cases in such an extremely competent and professional manner. I am so pleased with the results of the settlement and the final outcome.

Worker's Comp Claim Success

Originally assigned to another attorney, Kelly was handed a very difficult case that already had had 2 adjusters involved, along with almost 3 years of legal issues and completely unorganized medical claims. With an approach that was organized and meticulous, Kelly sorted through volumes of document...ation and somehow was able to clearly identify the areas where we could save money and even get reimbursed almost $100K through the Supersedes Fund in medical bills while at the same time identifying ways in which we could successfully defend our decision to terminate the claimant for cause. Kelly has forever impressed me as someone who is extremely knowledgeable, organized and very easy to work with.bryan

Viwinco Review for Kelly Hemple

We have used Ms. Hemple and Swartz, Campbell for several years. We have been very satisfied with the representation Kelly provides. I find her to be very knowledgeable and well respected by opposing council, which says a lot in the legal world. Kelly always is well prepared and keeps me informed a...t all times. I would Highly recommend Kelly for representation in any matter where you want one of the best on your side.

Kelly A. Hemple provides outstanding Workers Compensation legal services and legal consulting services. The Corporation in which I am employed continues to rely on her services for all Workers Compensation cases whether in litigation or not. It is great to discuss a claim with an attorney whose dat...a is current and who is timely with following up on next steps. I've often consulted with her on cases that are being litigated by other lawyers. . .
