Honest & hepful

I was in a car accident a year ago and attorney Richard Sklare was very helpful every step of the way. From helping me with my property damage, helping me establish my car rental. Every time I called he was available to talk to me. When it came time for the settlement I can honestly say I was HAPPY.

GREAT ATTORNEY

A little over a year ago I was in an automobile accident and needed an attorney, my friend recommended Mr. Sklare. I was scared and confused but with his help I was able to move forward from this awful experience. He held my hand through the process and I'm extremely happy with the final outcome. ... "Thank You."

Avoid this lawyer and his firm

"I strongly recommend that you DO NOT use this attorney. I signed up with the Evins, Friend & Sklare firm for a personal injury case and I received egregious mishandling of my case - bordering on malpractice. The communication was virtually non-existent. After being in an auto accident, I called the ...office approximately a dozen times over the next year to make sure that the case was moving forward, but I rarely received a call back, and never from an attorney. Since I didn't have any experience in similar situations, I really didn't know what to do. I received no guidance or advice on the proper documentation of injury or handling of my case. Because of this mishandling, I did not receive fair compensation. The office staff is consistently rude and simply does not return calls. Finally, after sending a letter threatening a malpractice suit against the firm, I magically got a call the next day and a little bit of attention, albeit with an everpresent petulant attitude. Sklare was the primary attorney with whom I communicated. I ended up calling other law firms to see if they would take over my case, but they declined, since it was so far along. I don't know if they are overbooked or are simply disorganized and lousy, but I would STRONGLY recommend NOT using Sklare or his firm. Call around. Speak to several lawyers and make sure you feel comfortable with the entire firm before signing on. Good luck."
