Office always kept me updated. If I forgot to update them after one of my doctor appointments, they would remember to call me for an update. Mr Pratcher let me know when the first offer from the insurance company came in and told me he could get me a better offer, which he did. I have already recommended him to other people.
Samuel did a great job with my case. Without a doubt one of the best lawyers in Delaware. He was timely with information and was genuine with the information. I appreciate all of his help and would suggest him to anyone.

Excellent service
I had a great experience with Sam. He was thorough in explaining their processes after my accident and quickly connected me with a great doctor who was very close to my local address for treatment. The process was fairly seamless. The firm handled everything I needed from start to settlement. I would highly suggest Sam if you are seeking an accident lawyer.

Accident Lawyer
Mr. Pratcher and his team are a pleasure to work with. They communicated with me regularly and had my best interest at heart. I definitely recommend him to support you. Unfortunately, this was my second accident; I’m recovering well. Without Mr. Pratcher and his team managing everything for me; I don’t know how I could have done it without them.

Very Pleased
Without getting into detail, I was turned away from Friebott. If you live in Delaware you probably saw his TV commercial. I wasn't sure how solid my case was. After talking with Samuel Pratcher, I felt a lot better about my claim. We settled and I am very pleased. The girls in his office were wonderful and everything went smoothly. I live in Sussex County so everything was done remotely and video conference.

Highly Recommend!!
I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Sam Pratcher representing me in my worker’s comp case for a little over 4 1/2 years, close to 5 years, and had “NO REGRETS” in hiring him to represent me. From day one upon meeting, the professionalism, dedication, and compassion that was exemplified by Attorney Pratcher was incredible. There was never a time that I was not in the know of what was going on regarding my case, and there was never a time that I reached out to him that either he or his staff would “promptly” respond. Every matter that arose, with his knowledge and expertise, resulted in rulings ALWAYS working in my favor, up to and including the settling of my case. I can’t say enough about the professionalism and HONESTY that was always the forefront of all conversations held throughout this process. His staff is equally as professional and pleasurable to deal with as well. I highly, highly, highly recommend Attorney Sam Pratcher to anyone who is seeking legal counsel.

Great attorney
Samuel Pratcher lll was referred by my son Andrew who had to hire a lawyer when he got hurt at work. I called the attorney and he had me come into his office & I'm glad I did. He fought the insurance companies for a fair & just settlement for me.

Best Lawyer’s around!
I really don’t even know where to start. Pratcher and his team goes the extra mile for their people! I was fighting with an insurance company, playing phone tag for months and was about to give up! I contacted the firm and within weeks I had my settlement that I was beyond proud about! Sam not only ascertained my settlement but he also gained me and my family’s trust to only use them as our attorneys! Thank you so much for all that you do Sam!!! P.S not to mention he has a heart of gold for the children in the community!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Over the past 5 years, I have needed his services in one way or another and as ALWAYS the service exceeds my expectations. No matter the time or issue when I needed his help, he has been there. Being available to help quickly and at a high level of professionalism. He is excellent explaining everything in detail and that for me made the process a better overall experience. If you need an attorney here is your guys.

Samuel and the rest of the staffers made it easy for me to get what I deserve for my accident. I explain to him my accident and he done the rest. First time ever in this kind of situation and he made it so much better with everything him and his team have done. I highly recommend him.

I would recommend Mr. Pratchers office in a heartbeat. Truly grateful for their services.
