Posted by anonymous | July 03, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Mesothelioma & Asbestos

An asbestos lawyer with a big heart!

I am so thankful that Michael Weinstock was our lawyer when my dad was diagnosed with Mesothelioma. People think that lawyers are cold and calculating. Michael Weinstock is the exact opposite. He is warm and funny. Most importantly, though, he really cares about his clients and he knows his stuff.... My dad was a mechanic and he owned a small repair shop. He was also a volunteer firefighter. When he was first diagnosed with Mesothelioma we were frightened to death, and we didn’t know what to do. We met Michael through some mutual friends from the Fire Department. Michael spoke to my dad on the phone for almost an hour. That very same day, Michael booked an airline flight. He was sitting at our kitchen table, in Minneapolis, the next afternoon. Michael developed a very special connection with my dad almost immediately. I could tell that my dad enjoyed spending time with Michael. He enjoyed talking about his work and Michael laughed at all of his jokes. We were a little stunned when the first check arrived. It was more money than we expected. I encourage anybody who needs a lawyer to call Michael Weinstock. He is a good lawyer and a good person.

A lawyer with class

Two years ago, my father was diagnosed with Mesothelioma, a rare cancer caused by asbestos. He was a FDNY firefighter for 29 years and also he did "side jobs" helping friends, and friends of friends, with construction projects. After his diagnosis, we started researching lawyers who specialized in th...is field. My sister's friend told us about Michael Weinstock.  We contacted Michael and we were immediately impressed by his optimistic nature.  Michael flew to Florida to meet with us and were were all impressed with his knowledge of the law and his warm personality.  Michael told us exactly what to expect and how long the lawsuit process usually takes, from beginning to end.  His candor was refreshing.  Sadly, we lost my father last year.  Nonetheless, I was pleasantly surprised, when the first checks started arriving.  My father was able to hold the first of the proceeds checks from one of the companies that Michael helped us recover. All he said was, "I am stunned." He was almost brought to tears. My father was initially reluctant about contacting a lawyer.  I am so glad we did.  Most importantly, I will always remember the way my father's eyes lit up, whenever Michael's name was mentioned.
