WHAT CLIENTS SAY ABOUT OUR FIRM
"When my husband was 45 years old he was diagnosed with mesothelioma... Fortunately, a friend referred us to "Lawyer Bob", as my 3 year old daughter called him, an attorney from the law firm of Levy Phillips & Konigsberg. Bob was incredibly kind and full of compassion and integrity. He never lost his sensitivity to our private battle. Bob took our case to trial, the appellate courts and on to the United States Supreme Court. Frank left this world knowing how well we were provided for." Elaine
"We decided that we had to file a lawsuit. We knew that we would need the best. We would need someone that would be able to fight for us, be there with us, help us, take care of us. We found not only one person; we found a whole family that took care of us. At Levy Phillips & Konigsberg it was amazing: they were strong, they were smart, they knew what they were saying, they knew what they were doing, and they did what had to be done. We've got justice… and picking Levy Phillips & Konigsberg was the right thing, because they were there for us. They did it, they won it, and we won. We won, we beat the bullies." Dolores
"I would recommend Levy Phillips & Konigsberg. Anything that I needed they actually did to help me with my case and they are still helping me after all I have gone through. They are very very good. They treat you like if you were their family, as well as I believe that they are my family. Levy Phillips & Konigsberg surpassed my expectations, because I wasn't sure what they will get for me, but each and every one of those companies that used asbestos actually settled, and I am very very pleased with the amounts that I have received. Believe me when I say, Levy Phillips & Konigsberg are the best." Ernesto
"Levy Phillips & Konigsberg, in my opinion, is a great law firm. They took very well care of us and I believe that they cared very much about our case. They were great attorneys. We could call them at any point; they would always return our phone calls, if they couldn't talk to us right then and there, answer any questions we ever had for them. The attorney that was with us from the beginning of the case stayed with us to the end of the case. They won us a lot of money. That's a law firm you need - somebody who's going to stand up for you and not for what's easier for them." Karen
"Our experience with Levy Phillips & Konigsberg was very positive. I would not hesitate to refer Levy Phillips & Konigsberg to anybody who is experiencing a case of mesothelioma, because they were extremely supportive, they were extremely caring, they were completely prepared, meticulous to every detail to mounting the case. I would have no reservations recommending them… because they will fight for you, they will treat you as equals, they will make sure that you are treated with the respect and compensated what you deserve."
