Most Trustworthy and Passionate Lawyer

Maria was amazing! She handled everything for me and kept me up to date in every single step of the process. I am an out of state client and she really battled for me with the insurance company and made it so I didn’t have to fly back frequently to attend hearings. Her service was professional, timel...y, and passionate. You can tell she cares a lot about her job and as result, does an amazing job at it! HIGHLY recommend Maria.

Recommend Maria Janoski wholeheartedly

Maria Janoski is the epitome of what a personal injury attorney should be. She is empathetic, fact-driven, and dedicated to do the right thing for her clients. She helped me understand the details of prosecuting the case and potential outcomes. Even though we did not take the case to trial, I have... every confidence that should I need a personal injury attorney in the future, Maria would be my choice!

There are no words...

I’ve had a hard time coming up with the words for this much rewarded review for Maria. Without sounding generic, I have found it difficult to express my sincere gratefulness for everything she has done for me, my growing family, and my own self-worth during some of my lowest of lows in my life. T...his was simply one of the hardest situations I have had to go through. Once our case was closed, the rollercoaster of emotions, thoughts and "what was to come next", took a while to process in the best way possible. There were times during our lawsuit process that I wanted to curl up in a ball and never see the light of day from an emotional and physical standpoint. She carried on a fight that I felt I couldn't at times when all I could do was focus on healing after multiple surgeries and therapies due to my injury. Watching her through our myriad of meetings, depositions and zoom calls; she was nothing short of amazing. She is SMART, outgoing, witty, and extremely keen to her practice of law. I would not want to be on the other side against her, EVER. I would love to just watch her in court one day. I never once doubted her ability to represent us in our case as we followed her during our four-year process; through two prior practices before she went out on her own. She was and is worth it all! Maria walked us through every step; we were never caught off guard. She kept calm for us all when I think many would have started to fray. She was great at setting our expectations, reassured us during uneasy times; she listened when I needed to call her with a health update or a new surgery date. I would cry, she would listen and then help me regroup. I like knowing I can call her a friend to this day. Without any hesitation whatsoever, I highly recommend her to anyone who is needing a personal injury lawyer as she is simply THE BEST.

Highly recommend

I would highly recommend Maria Janoski for any of your legal needs. From the first time I spoke with Maria, I knew that I was in extremely capable hands. Not only is she knowledgeable, caring, honest, and dedicated to a fault, but she also took the time to listen, offer suggestions and answer all o...f my questions while walking me through each step of the process. Maria gave 110% to my case to achieve the best possible outcome. Thank you Maria!!

Severance Negotiation

Maria was extraordinarily professional. I appreciated how upfront and transparent she was about the details of my case. Maria took the time to explain things that other attorneys did not and in the end though we jointly decided not pursue some aspects of legal action I had initially desired, I beli...eve I was able to make an informed decision and save years of legal and personal strife that may have ended in indecision and possible turmoil. Thank you Maria!
