Richard Kopelman

Attorney Kopelman came highly recommend to us and he was every bit of what was said. He is very accommodating and will always find time to talk to you and gets back with you in a reasonable time. Unlike a lot of other attorneys he does not pass messages through his assistant. He is a very personable... guy. He also went above and beyond to gets us the maximum amount.

Richard represented me many years ago and did an excellent job with my case, so when my son Danny was involved in a car accident and injured his neck, I didn’t hesitate in telling him he should call Richard. Even though Danny was grown, he knew I would not steer him wrong, and he hired Richard to han...dle his case. Although the insurance company insisted the wreck was "minor," Danny was badly hurt and eventually he needed surgery to repair a herniated disk. Unfortunately, not long after his neck surgery, Danny was diagnosed with metastasizing cancer, and a few months later, he passed away. Richard and Danny developed a good working relationship and when Danny got sick, Richard made sure Danny knew Richard would see his case through to the end, even if Danny wasn’t here to reap the benefits of the settlement he deserved. Richard also made sure Danny had a Will prepared to ensure that the money from his case would be distributed according to Danny’s wishes. Thankfully, Danny didn’t suffer terribly long, but sadly, he passed away before his case was resolved. Even so, Richard never gave up on Danny or his case, and ultimately, Richard was able to recover a substantial settlement from the at-fault driver's insurance company. Although Danny never got the benefit of the settlement, he was comforted knowing the money would be used to provide for his family. I am grateful for all Richard did for Danny, and know he would be too.

When I was injured in a car wreck, I wasn’t sure what to do. A good friend of mine told me Richard represented him when he was hurt, did a great job, and that I should call Richard. I followed my friend’s advice and I am glad I did. From the beginning of my case to the end, Richard’s office always ke...pt in informed and made sure I understood what was happening. The insurance company claimed the collision was “minor” and refused to pay what was owed, so Richard filed a lawsuit for me. Not long after, the insurance company agreed to pay me $250,000.00, the maximum coverage they had for my wreck. I hope I never need an attorney again, but if I do, I will make sure it is Richard.

After becoming injured in a hit and run car wreck a couple of years ago and badly injuring my knee, I had no idea what to do, who to talk to or what my rights were. After speaking with a co-worker who handled insurance claims for my company, I felt even more uneasy regarding the wreck and felt prett...y certain I should retain a lawyer. Luckily, a friend of mine recommended Richard Kopelman to me. Although I had a difficult case due to a prior injury to the same knee, Richard and his staff, especially Erin, were more than helpful and caring. They regularly called and emailed me to see how I was feeling, and always kept me updated on how my case was going. Since I had never needed a lawyer or been seriously injured before, I was terrified about the whole process, but Richard made things easy and genuinely came across as caring. Due to meticulous record keeping on their part, diligent study of both my automobile and health insurance claims/records, and Richard's ability to get right to the facts, I received a desireable (and more than anticipated settlement), along with the reassurance of knowing that no one else could have possibly helped me in a better manner. Even if you are unsure about how serious your case is, I recommend at least calling and speaking with Richard. HIs patience, perseverence, and ability to communicate with me in layman's terms definitely made my experience with him as enjoyable as possible given the circumstances. His office staff is great too. You really honestly have nothing to lose by at least consulting with him. He really helped me to get a sense of my self back and for that, I will forever be thankful.
