Recognized in Best Lawyers since 2013
William Hernandez
I hired John Dogum at Martin Law after a serious back injury at my warehouse job. His 30+ years focused on Pennsylvania workers' comp is evident; he knew the system inside and out and my case was resolved favorably. His recognition by Best Lawyers is well-earned for his legal knowledge. However, the experience was mixed. While the legal outcome was good, I often felt out of the loop. Responses to my emails or calls sometimes took a week, and explanations about the process were occasionally rushed. For straightforward legal expertise, he's a solid choice, but be prepared to manage your own expectations on client communication.
