Great job and thank you

I was in a rear-end collision accident on I285 just before the I20east junction in Oct 2014. It was a sunny day and the other guy was at fault. This other guy insurance representative started out so helpful. Then just turn when it came to me being compensated for my time off out of work and pain I wa...s going through. So I did some research online and call a few attorneys. But I only visit Mr. Kaufman office. After reading the reviews and looking at there video online. The lady that answer the phone was very helpful and put me at peace. So I set an appointment and I was not let down. Even thou I was in pain, everyone did what they could to make things comfortable. I remember Mr. Kaufman stop in the conference room to introduce himself and answer any questions that I had. I remember him having a slight cold himself, but still working. His staff was great, I received phone calls from many member of his staff. But Ms. Monika was most attendance to me and my case. She was very helpful and making me feel comfortable with my settlement. Thank Monika. Being a Old jarhead Marine I know I can be difficult, but Monika was patient and kind. Thanks again for all you help. I hope I never need you again. But if I am in a accident I will call you first Kaufman Law

Monika Baez

I had the pleasure to work with one of the many paralegals that combine the Kaufmann Law team. At first, I questioned everything that I was doing by allowing someone I was not familiar with work on my injury case. As time ticked, the help of Monika and the Kaufmann Law firm started to make a great fi...rst impression. They followed up with me. They made sure that I was clear from injuries. They made sure that I was doing good in my personal life as well. Not many people that work in such a busy industry have the time, better yet the personality to appeal one's eyes and meet certain standards. They say you never get a second chance to make a good first impression. Well, my hats off to these people. Thank you Kaufmann Law.

More then just a lawyer.

I have truly gotten to know Mr.Kaufman over the years. Unfortunately it has been through car accidents mainly. However I gained a friend and mentor thru this process. I was originally injured scared and didn't know the legal system. Mr. Kaufman told me not to worry explained the legal process told me... he would make sure all my issues and worries were handled and that I just needed to worry about my recovery. In addition to to that he got me a six figure settlement. Also, the advice he gave me on how to handle my new found wealth has helped me to maintain a comfortable lifestyle. If you are in need of an accident attorney Mr. Kaufman is the man and demands the respect of the insurance companies.
