The Alex Berman Law Firm and Attorney Jeff Kaufman helped me settle my Workers Comp case when other law firms couldn't/wouldn't help me!!!

Posted by Dave | July 10, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Workers Compensation

An outstanding Lawyer

The Michigan Worker Comp Lawyers are an excellent choice if you are dealing with Worker's Compensation case. The Senior partner is Alex Berman who has over 35 years of experience in handling worker's compensation cases. Initially, I got upset that I felt I wasn't being kept up to date on my case. I w...ill say they were down a member of their team with a medical issue. Once I voiced my concern to Alex that I needed to be kept in the loop of my case I was assigned a different attorney. I was appointed Jeff Kaufman, and he did an outstanding job keeping me in the loop of the case via emails or phone calls! Jeff went way above and beyond what was necessary of him to help bring my case to a close! Jeff showed real compassion to my situations the entire time dealing with my case and was able to bring to a close before losing my home and vehicle! He did work that should have been done by the opposing attorney to help speed up the closing of my case. I give their firm and Jeff a 5-star review and rating. Lastly, he offered for me to keep Intouch if I have any issues or other legal questions while now I go through my social security disability process which another firm is handling. I feel Like I formed a friendship with Jeff going through all of this. On another note not related to this firm but worker's compensation cases in general. It is a long process anywhere from 1-3 years I have heard of from others. The workers best intentions are not in mind of the opposing company. The independent medical examiners are a joke and only out to nail you and protect the company. They say whatever your comp company wants the to say in my opinion. It's a dirty corrupt system, and you only have big business and politicians to blame. Just Jeff and his firm they will protect you and be patient. Follow their advice, and I hope you come out also with a good settlement.

Jeff gets the job done

Jeff helped me through a lot of hardships. I had a knee injury at work adn they stopped my workers comp. I had two knee surgeries. Jeff was so caring, yet he could get the job done. And Jeff is still helping me with issue even though my case is over. Jeff was smart and knew the law and I was con...fident in his ability. I got workers comp benefits and disability too. He is unbelievably kind hearted, to the point he would make sure I got to my car safely. Jeff is a very good attorney.

  • 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.
