Plantiff

Ryan was fantastic to work with. He clearly explained each step in the process and really helped us comprehend the options and possibilities of various courses of action. He coached us well and clearly has valuable experience with cases like ours.

Professional and Informative

Mr. Perlin successfully negotiated two separate personal injury claims related to the same accident for me. Ryan was professional in his communication, kept me informed through the entire process, and set honest expectations for results. In the end Mr. Perlin's ability to negotiate on my behalf excee...ded what he had originally prepared me for. Ryan listened to my concerns, took the time to understand my point of view and situation, and acted sincerely in my best interest at all times.

Personal Injury Case

We were very impressed with Ryan as he represented our disabled grandson who had sustained life altering injuries due to the negligence of a large business. Ryan was the ultimate professional explaining all of the details to us every step of the way and keeping us calm during a stressful time in our ...life. His strong knowledge of the law and excellent planning in this case kept the defense on their heels and ultimately at a loss. We feel very lucky to have met Ryan and would recommend his services to family and friends without hesitation.

Excellent Personal Injury Attorney

I couldn't have asked for a better attorney to represent me than Ryan. He stayed on top of it from the beginning to the end, with a more than satisfactory settlement result in my slip and fall suit (black ice). He is a true professional and extremely knowledgeable. Ryan kept me informed and explaine...d my options in a thorough manner.

A Resourceful and Multifaceted Lawer

No one wants to have to consult a lawyer. I especially did not want to deal with lawyers, and my preconception of their profession, while in near constant distress and pain over the outcome of malpractice. After the initial catastrophe, my recovery took many years and several more medical procedur...es. I retain a permanent disability. Throughout the entire time, Mr. Perlin did not condescend or demand that I work on his deadlines, but rather showed compassion, and a complete willingness to work on a schedule that I was able to maintain. He also gave me the exact facts, background evidence and the straight truth about the possible outcomes of the case. He did an amazing amount of research and footwork on his own, and kept me updated at all times. There was no embellishment or bragging about what I could expect from the case, and I appreciated his detailed explanations and his complete and total honesty. His greatest strength of all, in my opinion, was his ability to remain calm and, even greater, to keep ME calm throughout the process. Due to his exemplary detective work, fair presentations, and sincerity of demeanor, I was able to make the best choices for myself and my family, resolving the case exactly as I had wished. I would call him again without hesitation, even if it were just for a referral on an unrelated manner. With his usual kindness, I know he would respond.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
