I hired this firm to represent me in my workers' compensation case and was assigned their partner, Mark Weissburg. Unfortunately, my experience was very frustrating. Communication was extremely limited, and for over a year I was not kept informed about the status of my case. I would have appreciated more consistent updates and clearer guidance throughout the process. In the few interactions I had with Mark, I found the communication to be unprofessional, rushed and responses often felt dismissive. He was very unfriendly during these interactions, and, not to mention, he was late to the two phone calls I had with him. I had to ask Mark to stop representing my case. After multiple follow-ups, I eventually received the attorney withdrawal documentation, but the delay added unnecessary stress to an already difficult situation. While this may not reflect every experience with the firm, based on my own, I would not recommend their services. I hope this feedback is taken constructively so future clients receive better communication and support. read more

Horwitz and Horwitz helped me get a small settlement after a car accident. It took a while, and the woman at Hortwitz who communicated with me was not too bright, slow to respond, not very helpful, and sort of insulting at times, but overall, it is what it is. I had neck and back injuries but nothing that required immediate surgery. I did negotiate with the lady to ask for more payout, and she got me a few hundred more than she originally offered. I thought that was curious, as I thought they negotiate the highest amount with the other party, not me negotiating with them to get more. She also let me know my case was not important enough that they'd consider taking it to trial (which they say they do with every case, so...that's not true, obviously...course perception is everything so I guess that other companies may think it's true). I think, depending on your case/injury, you may get more service and brighter people communicating with you. The initial secretary who took my info was great, offered lots of helpful info, and what they send you to sign is impressive. I don't have any complaints, because I've never sued a company before and have no idea what is the norm--esp when they are not billing me unless they win. Seemed okay, because all I did was really not much, paid nothing, and I got something. Interesting thing was State Farm immediately raised my car rates a lot after that --coincidence? hmmmm. Not sure. But, like I said, I was only communicating with a cog (secretary) at their firm. When I would try to go higher to get more answers and guidance, there did not seem to be a way to do that. Apparently, my case was peanuts for them. So, I did not interact with a lawyer at any time. I think I could have used more guidance, so keep in mind this is a huge law firm, and the lawyers are not intersecting directly with clients, by and large. read more

Worst experience with this law firm. They took forever to settle my husband's WC case, kept passing case down from lawyer to lawyer, took 7 years to settle. Extremely disappointed with outcome to say the least. Would never recommend to anyone. read more

I'm late in writing this review. I would highly recommend Horwitz. Injury cases apparently take a long time to settle and I was very impatient and demanding about my case because it wasn't moving very fast. Their firm was very patient with me, explained how and why things were moving the way they were and very responsive. They helped us get a settlement to cover the medical costs we had and followed up after to make sure all was well. I hope I never have to use an injury lawyer again, but if I do, I will go back to Horwitz..... read more

I used Horwitz, Horwitz & Associates from when I slipped and fallen in a local grocery store on New Years day. Cliff Horwitz and his team worked together as 1. This was very important because of the complexity of my case. It was a long case because my injury turned into a career ending injury. I am a Union Member of IUOE Local 150. As a crane operator. The team worked with my union to keep my Health and Welfare in force, That in itself Was a Total gift, It aloud my family to have Health insurance. I can't say enough about Horwitz, Horwitz and Associates. If your in need of a lawyer's support I Highly recommend Horwitz,Horwitz and Associates. Tell them Craig Wagner Sent you. read more

Carter and other lawyers in his firm represented me in a personal injury case. Opposing Counsel alleged that Carter failed to turn over WC medical documents to him in the personal injury case. Carter alleged that he never got the WC documents when he requested them. The legal counsel for the Workers Comp doctors provided to me in writing that the WC medical documents were sent to Carter's firm after they requested them in writing in 2018 and that they were never returned undeliverable. Carter communicated with 2 of the WC lawyers I had and even referred me to one of them. Opposing Counsel alleged that Carter and his co-counsel sent out a subpoena in 2017 for medical documents without providing notice to him of the subpoena. When the Judge asked Carter what happened from the request of the subpoena in 2017, Carter's response was " I don't know." Opposing Counsel alleged Carter and his Co-Counsel also sent a subpoena to an out of town witness that the Judge told them they could not depose and that Carter and his co-counsel never conveyed what the witness would testify to and what the current address was for the witness they sought to depose. The witness never showed up for the deposition after Opposing Counsel told the witness that the subpoena was invalid. Ironically , the deposition for the out of town witness was scheduled after Atty. Carter and Starshak returned from Gerry Spence's ranch. During one day of trial prep, after Carter returned from Gerry Spence's ranch, he screamed at me "Nobody likes you" as it related to employees at my former job where the accident at Ohare took place. The out of town witness was barred from testifying at the trial and one of the medical experts was also barred. Carter walked into court on the 3rd day we were suppose to be on trial handing me a copy of a motion to withdraw because I asked him to file a 4 page Declaration I typed up indicating that misrepresentations were being made by Carter and his co-counsel about me and that Opposing Counsel had also made misrepresentations about me. In the 4 page Declaration I stated that Opposing Counsel's statement that I'd told my supervisor what the injuries of the victims on the bus were was a misrepresentation to the court. I couldn't find anything in the transcripts on the day that particular misrepresentation was made where Carter challenged it. It would have been easy for Carter to get an Affidavit from my supervisor who spoke to the witnesses on the bus and wrote down the injures they relayed to him. That wasn't done nor did they ever depose my Supervisor nor the police that wrote accident reports nor the ambulance transport personnel. The Judge went with Opposing Counsel's misrepresentation. Carter was not allowed to withdraw but he told the judge he'd be willing to "take a friendly contempt" because he could not represent this person" any longer as a result of the Amended 4 page Declaration I asked him to file. The first copy of the Declaration was on 3 pages. The transcripts have Carter saying the declarations are a total of "22 pages." Carter and Opposing Counsel suggested I could dismiss the case with leave to refile. Even though it was a time of massive confusion for me and Carter didn't have the common courtesy to notify me in advance of his need to withdraw nor did he adamantly insist the judge give me time to find new counsel and the judge (Sandra Ramos ) wouldn't allow me to finish my sentence when I tried to request time to get a new lawyer. Filing a motion to withdraw and serving me in court with the motion the day he argued the motion does not demonstrate reasonable notice of the motion. I went with Carter's suggestion to dismiss with leave to refile. Turns out I was not able to find another lawyer to take on the case because they'd look up the case and see all the sanctions the Judge dished out against me the client (not Horwitz.... ) and just say NO. One lawyer told me, " I don't know anyone that would touch it." I couldn't handle the case on my own because it required medical expertise that I don't have and medical experts require lots of money to appear for trials. I didn't have money to pursue a malpractice case either especially knowing the uphill battle of arguing what was a "viable case or was not a viable case" after I'd dismissed with leave to refile. My conversation to dismiss with leave to refile was about 5 - 10 minutes with Carter in the hallway at a very stressful time. The judge was extremely hostile ( Sandra Ramos ) and intimidating so, the freedom to speak was not anything I felt I had. I requested the audio of the 3 days of sanction motions vs. trial but, the court reporters would not provide the audio to me so, I only got the transcripts from those 3 days. By the way, Horwitz never ordered the transcripts from the 3 days of sanctions so, I ended up paying for them. I tried to settle the case with Carter's malpractice carrier but, she said her clients didn't feel they did anything wrong. read more

Mitch Horwitz represented my father after he was severely injured at his job. Mitch and his team were extremely transparent and were always available to answer out questions and concerns during our ordeal. I highly recommend Horwitz Horwitz & Associates to anyone dealing with work related injuries and workers compensation cases! read more

I had a workers comp and third party lawsuit, both handled with Horwitz. The process was long and draining (not because of my attorneys, but the court system process itself), but my attorneys made the process smooth. I settled my case and was very impressed with the settlement amount I received. Thanks Dan and Michael! read more

No words can explain how grateful I am for Cliff,Michael,Lionel and everyone else that worked on my injury case.They are truly compassionate and care about there clients.I would absolutely recommend this law firm!! read more

I got hurt over 2 years ago and everything you read, everything they tell you believe it! It's true if you need H.H.A. You're in a situation where you still don't quite get the complexity of everything going on but They (HHA) do understand! They understand EVERYTHING they're there for these people. People just like myself. Your average hard-working individuals, who get hurt no fault of there own yet WE are among the most vulnerable people in the state! We(Injured workers have no real advocate in a state run/government flawed work comp system) So instead of trying to fight reality I realized I NEEDED someone that could actually put up a fight and had the Superstar Staff I needed!(I just didn't know it yet but H.H.A was there and is still there!) Even when I completely broke down mentally, and physically they were there for me! Cassandra called me to see how I was doing (she called multiple times and im a pain in the rear...so that's unheard of). That doesn't happen! But when you're at a law firm that has no corporate interests you are their 1 and only interest and from everyone including and especially Cassandra* to Dan and Wade and even the receptionists when you call in! You matter...I matter and they know who you are and they're there for us every day fighting for you and I. Fighting for me answering whatever is needed and guiding you/me when no one else can even see through the fog, H.H.A. is flying high above it! This is a nightmare of a system and process but when you have people... genuine individuals. Sympathetic Individuals that know the difference. That demonstrate why day in and day out they've been so special for so long. Thats why H.H.A. is the best. That's why all these years later they are still on forefront of everything good. They TRULY have "IT" Look at everyones track record if you dont want to believe myself. Actions speak louder than words! Thank you H.H.A. Everyone at H.H.A. Keep doing what you do better then ANYONE else. Thank you for being Everything I needed when do one else cared! R.S John Earhart read more
