I was injured in a car accident in 2019. Mr. Saltzer handled my case and I am very pleased with the outcome. He is very professional and maintained contact with me every step of the way. I highly recommend Mr. Saltzer and will refer my family and friends to him should the need arise. Thank you for everything.
I was in an Auto mobile collision in 2018, and went through the initial process. Attorney Saltzer contacted me, and he actually had to restructure my case. He was very informative, and kept me updated as much as possible. What I really appreciate about Attorney Saltzer, is that he treats his clients as if, you are his only client. He cares about how his clients are enduring their situation. Attorney Saltzer is Truly a Wonderful Attorney, and KNR is very lucky to have this Asset. I am so Thankful for Attorney Saltzer, and how he solved my case. He is Absolutely a Great Attorney.
I was rear ended in a car accident and I hired Michael to represent me in this case. The case was a challenging one because even though I experienced significant injuries, the damages to the back of my car was not great. Michael set realistic expectations along the way. He always returned my calls and text messages right away and he had empathy for the suffering I incurred. He was very professional and organized and very diligent in making a very good case for me to get the highest settlement possible given all circumstances. He advised me along each step and I told him I trusted him completely to make the judgement call weather to settle or go to trial. We ended up settling out of court. I highly recommend Michael and believe him to be one of the best in his field and to be of good character and very intelligent. Thank you Michael for what you have done for me.
Attorney Michael Saltzer is wonderful. He was honest with me about my case and I really appreciated that. We agreed on a number and he worked until that number was achieved. He worked hard to get me what I deserved and I truly appreciate all his hard work!
There are a lot of attorneys out there, believe me I know. I had a friend refer me to Michael and he was what an attorney should be. My first attorney was terrible to me and after being in horrible car accident, that is last thing you need. At are first meeting, Attorney Michael Saltzer, took time to explain, answer my questions and get to know me, which is a rare concept these days. Your case could also can take a while so a strong sound relationship with your attorney is important. Attorney Michael Saltzer, was exceptional with my case and took care of me like I was a member in his family. Michael answers all calls, emails, and texts, he treats your case as important to him as it is to you. If you are in need of a strong, knowledge, honest, compassionate, and excellent attorney, there is no need to look any further.
I contracted a aggressive bone infection in my left thumb from a cut I received from a nail salon in 2015 which caused me to be admitted into the hospital for next day surgery. Fortunately, the doctors were able to save my thumb. After leaving hospital, I contacted a person injury law firm to sue this nail salon. The first attorney who represented me filed a complaint and then just sat on the case and did nothing for almost a year. I contacted the lawyer to complain about his services and lack thereof. Two weeks later, I am informed this Attorney had resigned from the firm and my case had now lost so much evidence and investigation of nail salon negligence that had not been investigated earlier that could have used as evidence but could not be reversed because I was into a second year of my case so I felt my case was going south until I received a call from my prior Attorney's Assistant, Michael Saltzer who explained that he would be representing me and taking over my case. Michael was very Frank and explained to me that because of the time frame and lost evidence, the case was not that strong but he felt there was potential. For the first time ever, I was receiving weekly calls and updates on my case from Michael. In addition, I did what I could to assist Michael with any evidence and or leads that would help my case, after all, it was my case. To make a long story short, Michael communicated with me, sent me correspondence, fought like a warrior with opposing counsel by filing appropriate legal documents. Michael knows his work and he encountered issues that most attorneys have no patience, however, he persevered and won my case after taking over the sloppy seconds of another attorney and I am forever Grateful! because I truly believe I would have lost my case if it weren't for Michael and his expertise in personal injury. Michael won my case and I was paid. I have fully recovered from my bone infection and I am grateful. I highly recommend Michael Saltzer as a personal injury Attorney. He actually cares and will fight for you and win your case. He is experienced and professional. He is the Attorney with a Heart.
I was involved in a accident more than 3 years ago. I had hired another Atty. who told me he would not be working on my case anymore. I was worried to death that I would be turned over to some,run of the mill Atty. I was so very wrong, Atty Michael. Saltzer met with me immediately...I was so happy ,that he explained everything ,so i could understand.He was honest,told me that we may have to go to court,I was not at all happy about that,and the fact of how much longer it would take ,to resolve my case...not only did we reach an agreement with insurance co.the amount he got for me was way more than I had expected,from what first Atty. told me,and within a few months,without going to court.. Thank you so much Atty. Saltzer for caring and doing an amazing job for me.. hopefully I will never need an atty. again,if I do ,you will be hearing from me..
My case wasn't the biggest case but it was important to me. In addition, the original attorney given my case didnt follow through and left the case, Michael inherited it. Michael picked up EVERY call and answered every text. When I say he listened, HE DIDNT CUT ME OFF, you can always hear the compassion in his voice. Michael was also very honest. Where the original attorney felt my case waa worth X amount (highly inflated), Michael set reasonable expectations but told me what he was going to try to get for me and, HE GOT IT. I could also tell during my deposition and mediation that Michael is well respected by his peers, he really knows his stuff. I hope to never be injured again, but if I am, Michael is the FIRST person i would call.
On 5/17/2017 I had my foot smashed in the elevator at work. Michael did a fantastic job of getting the most settlement I could get. He cares about his clients, very easy to deal with. In my eyes he goes above and beyond. He deserves a 10 out of 5 rating.
On may 27, 2016, I was hit by a car while riding my bicycle. I was pretty shaken up and taken by ambulance to the ER. I hired Mr. Saltzer to represent me for this accident. I was impressed with his knowledge in the area of personal injury and insurance law. The person that hit me only had $25,000 in coverage. Mr. Saltzer was able to get additional money from my insurance company and I was extremely pleased with the outcome of my case. Mr. Saltzer connected me with top notch doctors plus he has a superior support staff and I never felt alone through the whole process. I highly recommend Mr. Saltzer.
