A Formidable Advocate in a Complex Personal Injury Case

After a serious car accident left me with significant injuries, I needed an attorney with deep trial experience. David Greenstone and his team at Simon Greenstone Panatier were exceptional. His 27 years of practice, particularly his recognized expertise in personal injury litigation, were evident throughout. He was strategic, professional, and personally invested, securing a settlement that far exceeded our expectations. His leadership of the firm and recognition by Best Lawyers are well-deserved.
