The firm was very thankful for the advice, and after the meeting, Funai Soken's Kyohei Deguchi sent Schwartz a letter of appreciation and extended a reciprocal invitation to visit the firm's office in Japan.

- Q. in MVA 11/5/19. other driver at fault. I have life changing injuries in excess of $10k. My atty never updates me.
- A: Lawyers are no different from plumbers or electricians. If you are not happy with the services you are getting, you can always switch. It is important to have confidence in your attorney and that he or she is working in your best interests and satisfying your concerns. Communication is probably the biggest complaint I hear when it comes to someone's attorney. I suggest you insist on a meeting to address your frustrations.

Certainly you want to be compensated properly for your pain and suffering, ... Read More
- Q. My daughter was clipped by a plow on Saturday night and is traumatized by the incident. Do I have a case?
- A: So sorry to hear about your daughter. My gut tells me that this may not be worth pursuing, especially if your daughter's injuries are minor. It sounds like the police report is not helping the situation, noting your daughter's dark clothing.

My guess is the insurance company will deny the claim, and then you are faced with the decision of filing a lawsuit which will be a 2 year process and expensive. I would see how the insurance company responds, and speak to an experienced personal ... Read More
- Q. A car two in front of me stopped suddenly and then turned -- the car behind me hit me -- who is at fault here?
- A: You did what you were supposed to do. You were able to stop in an emergency situation and you are supposed to be ready for emergencies like this that lie in front of you. The car behind you did not. He or she was arguably driving too close to you and unable to stop. The car behind would be responsible for this accident.
