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.

Katie's Wrongful Death
Mr. Bolotin was very thorough in our daughter's wrongful death suit. We felt his attention to detail was instrumental in the positive settlement in our case. We were well informed throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend Mr. Bolotin.

Took care of my niece's case
My niece broke her jaw and the insurance company didn't want to pay her for what she went through. I recommended Sam and he fought all the way through trial to get her fair compensation!
