About Sam
Biography
I have spent my entire career fighting giant insurance companies on behalf of injured clients with great success. For nearly 40 years I have fought and won thousands of cases throughout North West Ohio and Southern Michigan and have recovered millions of dollars for my clients. I have trained my legal team to be aggressive, thorough, and above all compassionate.

Sam Bolotin's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. Sam is one of Toledo's best personal injury lawyers. He is knowledgeable, persistent and not afraid to take a case to trial. Sam and I had several court battles over the past couple decades. His clients were always well served. I would not hesitate to recommend his services to those who need a personal injury lawyer."
"I have opposed Sam on numerous cases during my 35 year career. He is always prepared , thorough, diligent ad extremely competent. His trial skills are among the best I have faced in the 100 trials i have had."
"I started my career working for Sam. He is a passionate advocate, and fights hard for his clients. He also has an impeccable character, which is unfortunately not always the norm in our profession. I can recommend him without reservation."
