A Patient's Partner

After having an auto accident driving home with my family after a business meeting, I had no idea how much time and medical intervention would be required. I found quickly I needed support from the medical bills and guidance of what to do after getting hurt. Mr. Lengkeek and his assistant Kerry were ...an outstanding team that treated me with respect and stood by me, helping and guiding me the entire duration. Tim and Kerry gained my respect very quickly. They were fast and proactive always working on getting the bills paid and assisting me when I needed direction. Tim's unique knowledge base provided me with information that was required from understanding surgeries to dealing with insurance companies and the like. Kerry provided me with weekly if not daily interactions to keep me in the loop. This made not only me feel comfortable but also my family. They were/are truly my partner helping me step by step. The settlement outcome was much more then anticipated and was simply due to the dedication and hard working team of Mr. Lengkeek. I am completely satisfied with the outcome and I would highly recommend Tim to anyone who wants full commitment and to get the job done with a personal touch. A truly pleasant experience considering the medical inventions I had to undertake. I was not just a customer, I was a VIP.

Tim Lengkeek Best Lawyer and Firm in DE

I met Tim Lenkgkeek at the end of 2009. I had been in a car accident on 1-22-09. My PIP had run out and I had to begin to use my personal health insurance just after being at Magee Brain Rehab for 12 days. The auto insurance companies were not backing down but a friend sent me a video of me 3 month...s before the accident. Tim sent it to the person who hit me insurance company and to my insurance company and had our deserved compensation in 30 days. He is always on top of the ball.
