“Nick and PEGC also provided invaluable legal and practical advice over the entire process, while treating me with respect.”

“Sometimes the most unexpected can happen and all of a sudden you need an experienced and qualified attorney. The unexpected event for me was being hit by a speeding automobile when I was in the crosswalk while out for my daily run on a sunny day. It happened in a nightmarish flash, and my life changed that day. However, Nick Carlin and Phillips, Erlewine, Given & Carlin LLP were able to help me and my recovery. If you need an attorney or law firm that knows how to handle a complex personal injury case, knows how insurance companies operate, and most importantly knows how to look after the interest of their client, you need to give Nick Carlin at Phillips, Erlewine, Given & Carlin LLP a call. When you have a complex personal injury case, you need an attorney and a law firm that have trial and litigation experience and are willing to take your case to trial. I was expecting to go to trial and felt that a trial would maximize my recovery. However, just prior to setting a trial date, my wife encouraged me to settle the case, so I could continue my recovery. By this time, the case was ongoing for over one year and was taking an emotional toll on me and my family. The injuries, pain, trauma, suffering, and emotional impact of the traumatic accident was taking a toll on my life, my wife and family, and my career. I'm still suffering from the effects of being hit by an automobile; however, with love from my family, an understanding workplace and therapy have helped in my recovery. Nick and Phillips, Erlewine, Given & Carlin LLP also provided invaluable legal and practical advice over the entire process, while treating me with respect. Nick has an experienced and companionate staff that also helped and were always available. Nick was also able to get the experts for this complex personal injury case. There were at least ten special medical and non-medical experts involved in the case, and the defendant was represented by two national insurance companies. The settlement that Nick was able secure for me was in the seven-figure range. If you, a family member, or loved one is involved in a personal injury case, and you need an attorney who will put your interests first, you need to give Nick Carlin a call.

“From the moment that I encountered them I was greeted with professionalism.”

“After being hit by a car as a pedestrian crossing the street and convalescing for three months to recover — I needed to hire legal representation to make a claim against the insurance company. I chose — PHILLIPS, ERLEWINE, GIVEN & CARLIN LLP — as my counsel because from the moment that I encountered them I was greeted with professionalism. During the course of the deposition and preparation I experienced a thorough review of all aspects of what to expect from the opposition and I was confident after a few meetings that I would be compensated from this harrowing event that had happened to me. Their representation was a critical part of the case being settled since after the deposition the opposition realized they had to back my claim because everything said and done during the deposition by my legal team was ironclad with no cracks to expose i.e.; all scenarios where airtight in my favor.”
