The right choice!

I was injured in a car vs. pedestrian accident. Stephen was recommended to me by a family member, and never having used a lawyer, I was glad to be given his name as a great reference. The results of my accident involved an extended period of time lost from work, navigating the medical process of havi...ng surgery through completing physical therapy, and, of course, the legal case against the driver who hit me. I was under-insured at the time of the accident and so was the driver, which is unfortunate. In addition to making sure that the driver’s insurance company paid out the maximum amount, Stephen also encouraged me to examine my insured status further. It turns out I was also covered under a family member’s auto insurance policy as I was staying under their roof at the time of the accident. Stephen managed to win for me a far greater sum than if I had only relied on the driver’s insurance. It’s a good thing that I had Stephen in my corner. Stephen showed patience in answering my questions promptly at all times during the legal process. Trusting in his attention to every legal detail left me to focus on my recovery. He even provided encouragement when the pace of my recovery process seemed to lag. When it came time for the settlement to be handed over, Stephen and I met for breakfast and discussed how the legal proceedings went. Learning more about him, such as his previous career in education and his strong work ethic rounded out the picture for me. Stephen Hoffman was a great choice.

He got the job done.

I worked with Stephen for a worker's comp case. I didn't realize I was entitled to a settlement (the insurance company doesn't tell you that. I hired Stephen just hoping not to get screwed over on temporary disability and wound up with a big enough settlement check to get back on my feet.

Stephen Hoffman - Highly recommended for your workers compensation claim!

I was involved in an automobile collision that was not my fault. It was complicated by the fact that I was traveling between places of work for my employer so I was not even sure whether this was going to be a negligence automobile collision personal injury case or a workers' compensation case or bo...th or neither. I was hurt and confused. When I contacted Stephen Hoffman, he immediately explained all the possibilities, the pros and cons, the procedures, and was genuinely concerned for my well being as well. While this process could have been stressful and confusing, Stephen really made it a pleasure, staying in touch with me regularly and getting the case settled much quicker than I ever expected. He is a thorough, personable lawyer who takes the time to get to know his clients, listens to their questions and concerns, and keeps them informed. I was amazed at how well he knew my case and how frequently I heard from him via email or phone with updates, explanations, and news. While I hope to never need a personal injury lawyer or workers' compensation lawyer again, I would absolutely recommend Stephen L. Hoffman and Law Office of Stephen L. Hoffman LLC to anyone who needs an injury attorney. He is wonderful to deal with, professional, a great advocate, and someone who gets results for his clients. I was thrilled with how my case turned out and he documented everything he did; he is completely transparent, ethical and trustworthy. I cannot recommend Stephen enough!

Rich Sr.

I did not know my rights on work related injuries and Mr. Hoffman was was very knowledgeable in this field. I was in mgmt. and thought I had to keep my injury to myself so the company will stay profitable. As a result I caused more damage to myself, but Mr. Hoffman was able to back track my injury ...and I got the medical and financial help I was entitled to. Thank you Mr. Hoffman, I recommend him to everyone who needs an excellent attorney.

Legal help you can understand

Mr. Hoffman aided us when there was a death in our family and a trust involved. He quickly directed us to a course of action that eliminated any confrontations with others involved. His explanations and recommendations were clear and easily understood by those of us unfamiliar with legalize. The b...ill we received was also easily understood and more than reasonable. Mr. Hoffman made an uncomfortable situation tolerable.
