I was in an Auto Accident at the beginning of this year and ended up with some severe injuries and, I just didn't really know where to turn to next. I was given a recommendation for Steiner, Greene and Feiner and so I called them. … More My Attorney Sam Levine immediately called me back and I am so happy that he did. Sam talked with me about the process and from there I had always felt like I was in good hands. I'm actually tearing up writing this because my case is closing now and I'm going to miss talking with him. Sam has been there for me throughout this whole process, he kept me informed of each step, if I had a question, he answered me right away, if he needed to update me, he called me right away. He was always easy to speak with, he was very professional but he was like Family too. I felt comfortable and safe. I absolutely loved all of my Doctors, I always felt safe with them too, they treated you like Family, I miss them too. Sam knows what he is doing, he is knowledgeable not only with law but, your injuries too which is nice because he knows what you're going through. I can't say enough about Sam, he's a great guy and he made this process easier and he got me the settlement I deserve so, I have to give him and Steiner, Greene and Feiner five Stars, I highly recommend them to everyone, they're on your side and they put their heart and soul into it. I hope I don't have to but, if I do…I will definitely call them again and ask for Sam. Thank you Sam, thank you for all you did.
