VERY GOOD!!!!!!

Ostroff law firm exceeding my expectations - To start, I contacted 5 law firms each telling me that I didn't have a case because I had selected LIMITED TORT COVERAGE ( the other person was 100% at fault I was at a red light and the person hit me head on). I was injured real bad but because they felt... it would be difficult to get compensation, nobody wanted to touch it. Then I looked online and found Ostroff - I spoke to Eric Frost and Angela - who was very straight with me - told me It may be difficult as a limited tort case but will still take it on. After one year, the case was settled for more than I expected - I would highly recommend these guys , Thank you so much!

Didn't get the job done

I hired Ostroff law 4 years ago. I was T boned by a lady who ran a stop sign. I tore my shoulder. In the beginning I was shifted from person to person. Should have been a flag. Paper work was lost and redone over and over. Never had a meeting face to face with anyone. I asked to but was refused. Fin...ally they settled me in with Ryan Michaleski . Two days before or so the trial we went over things. I asked for a online meeting but was refused and he did it over the phone instead. He told us how and the way he wanted things said. a little cocky and to sure of himself. And in the end we lost. Our insurance co. ended up paying and the lady who ran the stop sign and T boned me, Her insurance paid nothing.

Incompetent!

Selecting this firm was one of the biggest mistakes I have ever made. I had a very simple auto accident case that should've been settled rather quickly. It lasted 3 1/2 years and would've been longer had I not decided enough was enough. I was treated as if I was the person who caused the accident ins...tead of one of the victims! The lawyer handling my cases gave me the run around and after telling me he could settle for an amount that was more than fair, he called back to say it wouldn't happen and that I would have to go to a hearing, which if I had prevailed would be appealed and then I would have to appear for a jury trial! I am living in another state and they want me travel back and forth for these events even though it would be a hardship on me! First, I had to supply lots of documentation, then I had to attend a deposition, at which my lawyer was playing on his iphone throughout the proceedings (not a professional look) and then I was told to just hang in there and keep waiting and waiting and waiting. My previous lawyer took my case even though I only had limited tort, and won me a nice settlement in only 2 years without me having to do any of the above! If you need a good lawyer for an accident case, stay away from Ostroff.

I am so sorry to hear the process of resolving your case did not meet your expectations. The time it takes for a case to settle is a common concern for our clients, which is why we created the 30 Days to Settle Guarantee. Unfortunately, complications and/or obstacles can arise in certain cases, which leads to the need for depositions, hearings and sometimes a trial. We know how frustrating the added steps can be, but we make those decisions to maximize recovery for our clients. In any event, I am disturbed by your feelings that you were treated as the one at fault rather than the victim. We always want our clients to know and feel that their attorneys are on their side and are fighting in their corner. Furthermore, your attorney should not have given the impression he or she was not actively engaged in the deposition. We will address the issue of engagement use during legal proceedings so future clients do not share the same experience. Each and every client is important to our firm. While it is rare for us to have any kind of problem with our clients, I want to always pay attention if a client had a bad experience. I would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you further about your case so I can help clear up any misunderstandings and the specific points that didn't work for you. I’m not sure who you are, but if you’d like to discuss this with directly with me as the firm owner, I’d greatly appreciate the opportunity to understand your concerns better and to see if there’s anything I can do for you and to investigate your experience further so that it doesn’t happen again, with any other clients. My cell number is (215) 450-7733. I’M SORRY ABOUT YOUR DISAPPOINTMENT AND PLEASE KNOW I TAKE THIS VERY SERIOUSLY AND PERSONALLY. Jon Ostroff
