R.J. IS THE BEST!

R.J. really cared about me! His first question always was How are you feeling? And he meant it! I always felt very comfortable with him knowing he would do everything he could to help me. And he did. Thanks, R.J.!

A job very well done

Posted by

I couldn't ask for more. RJ and Holly worked hard and won with attention to detail, personal, friendly communication, and solid advice. I was compensated fairly for my injuries and they worked against a narrow deadline, thank you both so much.

This man turned my nightmare into a blessing. He fought for me when i couldn't fight for myself. I didn't know where to start to be compensated for my injuries. Thank you so much Roger for making this easier on myself and my family.

He's the best!

Posted by

Roger worked his butt off to get the case settled in my favor. The hardest part for him was probably putting up with my incessant pestering. Through all of it he was professional friendly and understood what I was going through and made me comfortable every step. I highly recommend him to all.

RJ worked tirelessly to settle our case

Posted by

It was a great pleasure to work with RJ and his staff from day one. Roger was very professional yet down to earth all at the same time. He was never to busy to answer any questions that we had, and explained in detail what was happening. I'm glad we had a chance to meet RJ and would not hesitate to use his services again.

A lawyer who is respectful and knowledgeable...

Posted by

From the very first moment that I met with Roger (RJ), I knew that I was in the best possible hands I could be. My case was not typical in nature, yet needful of a result that would best ease my pain, suffering and stress that it had caused. At our very first sit down together, RJ walked me through every aspect of what he would be doing, what I could expect and the general time frame to expect it. Throughout our time together, when he could sense my impatience he was there to reassure me of the process and what was happening. He truly knows how to maximize the potential for you and your particular case. RJ in his heart truly wants what is best and right for you. He even agreed to meet me for one of our meetings on my side of town because he knew it would be easier for me and at 7am on top of that! How many lawyers will do that for you! I did not have to do this review, but it was the best way I know to let anyone who is researching for a lawyer to please seek out Roger Ermola and let him take care of you from start to finish. You will not regret it.

Diligent and Thorough

Posted by

RJ was very competent regarding what possibilities and outcomes my case had to offer. He knew what to accept and what not to put up with. As I'm not an attorney, he made me feel knowledgeable about my case without me feeling like a blithering dolt. RJ was really hard working throughout and was responsive to all communication.

Respects his clients

Posted by

I was hit by a drunk driver and I needed an attorney I went with RJ he always returned all my calls, even when I walked in I was treated with respect. My case was quite complicated, but they were right on top of it.I believe RJ has empathy for his clients and works for them and their best interest after all the complications and making sure that my side of the story was heard I was awarded just shy of a half $1 million.If I ever need an attorney I will use RJ.
