never got back to me after receiving docs

i inquired whether mr. plotnick would take my case, he sent me forms to fill and requested documentation. i supplied everything and he received it. then he stopped communicating. i have no problems with him not taking my case, but it would be professionally (and humanly) proper to just d=say that and... not diappear.

Replied last March 07, 2020

If this is accurate, we sincerely apologize, but I do not recall this inquiry. We always potential clients with a thorough discussion about their claims and whether we think we can help them, and part of this comes from asking them to provided detailed information about what happened to them and what they are going through so we can do an assessment. I do not recall Mr. Vitaly, and apologize for any oversight, but it is not a case that appears in our database. We always try to provide a prompt response whether or not we are accepting a case. Mr. Vitaly if you would like to reach out and remind me about your case, I would be happy to discuss with you. Stuart

Professional and Reliable

Mr. Plotnick took time to carefully and clearly explain the process of filing a claim for my auto accident. He answered my questions and provided sound advice along with recommendations for medical teams. Mr. Plotnick checked on me while I was recovering from my injuries. I felt that I could trust ...him with my information and situation. He and his staff members exceeded my expectations.

An Exceptional Personal Injury Lawyer

Stuart is an exceptional attorney. I called numerous law firms and single practicing attorneys to represent me in my personal injury case. It wasn’t until I called Stuart and the Law Offices of Stuart L. Plotnick that I felt that I was heard, could trust that my case would be handled appropriately a...nd efficiently, and would receive justice. Stuart listened. He took time to explain to me legal terms and the legal process, answering my many questions. He argued and negotiated strongly on my behalf. As a result, I am thankful, blessed, and grateful for the legal outcome that he obtained for me. I am happy to call him my lawyer and friend, and would encourage others to seek his legal representation.
