In November 2022, while staying at a hotel on March Lane, I was aggressively bitten by a rescue dog…read morethat was falsely represented as a service animal. As I walked casually to the ice machine, a door swung open and an unleashed dog ran out, growling, and went straight for my calf. I felt its teeth tear into my muscle--two deep bites--before the owner finally gained control. I stood there frozen in shock, tears running down my face. Later that month, I signed a representation agreement with a criminal defense attorney who implied she had experience with injury cases and would handle my matter diligently. Unfortunately, that was not the case. For nearly two years, I had to act as if I were representing myself--making constant follow-up calls, repeating the details of my case every time, and never once meeting my attorney in person. I lived in panic and uncertainty. When I finally sought new representation in May 2024, I was told my previous attorney had a 50% recovery entitlement, which felt like yet another barrier. To her credit, she recognized she had not handled my case properly and agreed to relinquish her rights if I provided information for my new counsel. I prayed for guidance, and God led me to Yelp-dog bite attorney. As I scrolled past the sponsored listings, my eyes stopped at the Law Offices of Brown & Gessell--4.7 stars, 16 reviews, and words like "honest," "sincere," "professional," "genuine," "knowledgeable," and "caring." I scheduled a consultation with Steven Brown and explained everything I had been through over the past two years. He asked me to come in and meet with him. I prayed again that weekend for God's favor. Mr. Brown took my case. From that moment on, he educated me, guided me, and--along with his outstanding team--kept me informed every step of the way. Mr. Brown is a man of integrity, compassion, and genuine dedication to his clients. He and Linda are extremely knowledgeable, approachable, down-to-earth, and consistently professional. Steve (as he always insists I call him) not only renewed my hope in my case, but reminded me that there are honest, empathetic people in this world. Now, as I stand in November 2025, I can truly say: God has given me favor through the hands of Mr. Brown and his team. I am deeply grateful.

He did his best on an already nearly done deal, but clearly his 85 or so years is showing. Younger Docs now suddenly on his webpage? A bad sign. Sad, as he IS the firm, it will likely IMPLODE without him. Tells jokes & stories & CHARGES you $650./hr for them as well...omg! He & his billing have to be supervised closely. He can be mean & spiteful & gets offended so easily, a sign of a fragile ego & narcissist. Look around. Caveat emptor, let the buyer BEWARE.

Review for Michael A. Firestone, MBA, JD, a partner in the law firm of Marvin Firestone, MD, JD:…read more Mr. Firestone represented me in a complex case of damage to my right shoulder caused by a vaccine, and in spite of several obstacles against me from the outset, the outcome was successful beyond my wildest expectations. Michael's hard work, his frequent calls and emails directing me to take all the steps necessary to overcome the obstacles, and his first-rate performance in court were the components of our validation and a judgment we had not even dared to expect. I must add that his father, Dr. Marvin Firestone, is entitled to a lot of the credit for sending us most of the medical and scientific articles on shoulder injuries that he continually looked for. Ms. Pat Barrick, a paralegal and RN and an essential part of this client-centered law office, is also to be commended for all her help and encouragement--and her technical help. I am writing this review in support of Michael A. Firestone and his law firm in general with the hope that no one will hesitate to engage him. He is the best lawyer to have in your corner.
