Smart and supportive attorney when most needed.

Ms. Janoski was an excellent attorney to work with after I was hit by a car and injured while riding my bike. She was smart, thorough, and was able to navigate the legal world involving two different states - PA and NJ. Her support throughout the legal process was most welcomed, including appearing a...t any deposition and medical assessments that were necessary. Would definitely seek her backing, knowledge, and support if ever needed again in the future.

Thank you Maria!!!!!

We approached Maria for assistance after being involved in an auto accident where a driver ran a red light and demolished our car. My wife suffered several injuries and was briefly hospitalized. While the potential dollare value of our recovery was not going to be large, Maria took on our case with a...ll of the effort of a huge $$$$$$ case simply because she always treats each client as truly important and deserving of justice. We know that anyone else who ever chooses Maria to represent their needs will be extremely impressed and will feel that they have been provided with the best services available, bar none!

Maria is very knowledgeable and will go above and beyond for her clients.

My husband and I hired Maria for an injury lawsuit. Nether of us were familiar with lawsuits and we were both nervous and overwhelmed by the whole ordeal. Let me say, Maria took all the worry and stress from us. We were both happy with the outcome and recommend Maria highly. Maria, kept us well in...formed throughout the whole process and communicated in a language we understood easily. Highly recommend Maria.

Maria vs insurance company

Mine was not an easy case and I honestly didn’t think I would get a Lawyer to help me. Maria explained what we were up against. In the end it worked out well.

Slip & Fall

After a bad experience with a previous law firm, Maria came to the rescue!!! Ms. Janoski was always very personable and understanding. I was very pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend.
