This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Hard working, Honest

Pedestrian accident, settled out of court. He got a good cut of money, but that's the price of using a good attorney. No amount of money is enough for the lifetime injury I have, but Attorney Milavetz's caring and professionalism made the experience as painless as possible. I highly recommend Mr. Mil...avetz for your personal injury case. God bless.

Helped me and many of my friends

Alan represented me in a car accident case. He did an amazing job. I've referred my friends to him and all have been pleased. The other lawyers in his firm do an excellent job in many different areas of law.

Get's the job done right!

As an attorney I know that if you try to represent yourself you have a fool for a client. When I got injured in an accident I had Alan and his investigator, Pat, help me every step of the way. Even though I was familiar with the process they still took the time to explain what was going on at each po...int of my case. When it was time to settle my case or go to trial they took the time to guide me to a successful outcome that I could understand. Avoiding trial and getting a good settlement was worth the time, effort and fees involved. I have since referred several cases to Alan, and every case was handled with great personal care and consideration. I would encourage anyone with a legal matter to get the legal advice necessary to help with any type of case. Alan, and his firm and staff will get the job done right.

A Very Fine Choice of Attorneys

My wife had an accident that I called Mr. Milavetz for help in what to do and he gave me the best advice of what to do, and then he handled it to more than our satisfaction. I have used Mr. Milavetz to handle other issues and have always been most pleased by his handling of the matters.

Personal injury lawyer | Jan 10

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I heartily endorse Alan. He is a fabulous lawyer. I referred a case to him because the client was severely injured in a bike accident in Minnesota. The client's father, a prominent local physician in PA, was searching for a lawyer on a weekend and I referred the matter immediately to Alan Milovetz. He responded despite it being an odd hour on a weekend. He accepted the case and began work on it promptly, obtaining a very favorable settlement for the client. When I refer a case to another attorney, it matters greatly to me that the client is well represented and is pleased with the counsel I have recommended. Alan is responsive, knowledgable and compassionate. You cannot go wrong sending a case to him."

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.
