COO

Raskin defended us in litigation and negotiated a settlement agreement. He was thoughtful and wise in both his negotiating strategy and legal advice to us as clients. He then helped us to obtain payment from our D&O insurer after it had denied coverage. Paul was aggressive where we needed him to be a...nd realistic when we needed him to be. He provided sound advice on both strategy and tactics in settling the lawsuit and recovering fees from the insurer after its denial. If I ever find myself the subject of a lawsuit again, I want Paul by my side!

Outstanding Representation

Being an attorney myself, I know what great legal work looks like and I can tell you that Paul's representation in one of my cases was nothing but exceptional. Specifically, I had a situation arise with one of my cases that involved an area of law (i.e. insurance bad faith) that was outside of my are...a of knowledge (i.e. workers' compensation). In an effort to help my Client, I requested Paul's services and he did an amazing job immediately getting up to speed in my (very complicated) area of law to help my Client recover a very significant amount of money against a very big and powerful entity. Paul was everything you want an attorney to be (i.e. competent, reasonable, knowledgeable, intelligent, diligent, creative, responsive, and thoughtful, to name several). In conclusion, if you ever need an attorney to represent you in an insurance bad faith situation, you would be wise to retain Paul Raskin..

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.
