Accident

Yana have been nothing but help for my family and I during a very difficult time in my life. She advised me not to worry she will handle everything and that’s exactly what she did. She made sure she checked on me throughout the months. Made sure my health and my car was okay. I was very skeptical abo...ut the process but she took the stress off my back. The paralegal in her office is great. They always return my calls and make sure that I speak with the attorney. You never really have a attorneys phone number in this case I did. I appreciate the outcome and will refer everyone who’s in the same situation as myself to you. Thanks you !

Great Attorney, highly recommend!

Yana was amazing! I had an accident on I-95 where someone swerved into my lane and had my car spin out of control and ran into a concrete wall. I contacted Yanas office and they took care of me and every aspect of my case. Yana helped me with my car rental, repairs, treatment of my injuries and event...ually, settlement. I was super happy and would definitely recommend Yana Kurzman and her team.

Car Accident

Yana was able to step in when the insurance company I was dealing with refused to make payments for all of my accident related expenses. As soon as she stepped in, the insurance company was quick to comply. She was a consummate professional and handled everything swiftly. She was able to secure me a ...more than fair settlement and would certainly give her the utmost recommendation.

Car Accident

On April 10th, 2017 I was involved in a car accident. I was hit from behind by a transport truck (transporting the elderly to dr's appts) while sitting at a red light. I was referred to The Kurzman Law Group by my brother. I had never been involved in any lawsuits and was skeptical to do so, however ...I was hurt and needed guidance through the process. Yana was amazing! She was so professional, very accesible, returned phone calls, always on point and the entire process went so smoothly! I highly recommend her, and actually have done so already.

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.
