Very helpfull

While she did not take my case, due to jurisdictional issues, she did take the time to contact me as well to provide me with some helpful advice as well as some references in the proper jurisdiction. She was very friendly and helpful.

Medical Negligence Case

Judy was recommended to us by a local NJ lawyer who could not handle a case in Pennsylvania. As we live in south Jersey, we appreciated that most of our conversations with Judy were via email or phone. We met with Judy once which seemed to be adequate for our and her needs regarding information. W...e gave her mostly photographs of the injured area on Bob, notes that I took while Bob was hospitalized during care given, and Bob's recollection and comments regarding his care. Via her questioning, she made sure that we had provided her with all relevant information. Judy called us with an initial offer from the hospital and after discussing it with her, we decided, and Judy agreed, that the amount initially offered was not enough to offset the monies we would have to reimburse Medicare and HOP. She renegotiated with the hospital and a new figure was offered and accepted by us after discussion with Judy. After all fees were deducted we received a monetary amount very close to what we were hoping for. We appreciated Judy and her staff's professionalism, pleasant demeanor and the outcome of our case. We would highly recommend Judy to anyone in need of her services.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
