Ankin Law Office

"I had the opportunity to work with attorney Jessica Brown and all I can say is that I'm completely satisfied. She went above and beyond the call of duty to help me and I am eternally grateful. She literally got the job done! Also, the professionalism exhibited by this firm has also been unmatched. I highly recommend them and will be back in the event that I need them again!"

"Ankin handled a work comp case for me when I was 19. I was a hard working honor roll student with a very bright future, but not savvy in legal matters or life matters. Anyway, while on company time, was hit nearly head on, then ran into a telephone pole. The others in the car sustained injury...one breaking wrist and nasty lacerations, the other with giant egg on forehead and concussion. Anyway, that's when my chronic neck pain and headaches started. Ankin Law encouraged me to settle for a mere 5k, without requesting MRI or independent review by a doctor NOT employed by insurance company, or considering the long term impact of a neck injury. Anyway, 20 years later, I still have chronic neck pain/headaches. It never went away. I've started seeing TV ads for Ankin, and just thought I'd share my review. If I could go back, I would absolutely NOT rehire them."

"Everyone knows the bad reputation attorneys have of being "shady" and despite having to maintain the highest standards of ethical behavior,its only in theory because in real life we know it is not the case.... Welcome ANKIN LAW....everything I said in my prior review still stands and the service was so bad that I had to fire them and retain new counsel who did an excellent job. I will not just TELL you that they are bad I will SHOW you how unscrupulous they are and deceitful. Now I am sure there are some good attorneys in the practice, however, the one we had Derick Lax was the opposite and at one point maybe because they are just so overburdened with cases...(they target the Minority populations by posting billboards where they know the blue-collar workers live) and have commercials..which honestly only the bottom of the barrel law firms do that because the really good Petitioner firms.. simply go by word of mouth and do not need to resort to advertising but I digress.. So on one occasion, a surgery was recommended (this was a WC case ) and the DEFENSE side was asking US to pay using our own private health insurance and they would reimburse us... they didnt want to have to pay the surgery through their own WC insurance carrier because doing so makes their rates go up so one way to avoid this is to "suggest" that the employee use his own private health insurance to pay and they reimburse... but you will then be on the hook for every medical bill you get and the insurance's mercy that they actually do follow through on their word... but if they were truly "ethical" they would not have even suggested this in the first place...The employer has to pay all reasonable medical bills. Period. Well "Derick" not sure if out of pure laziness to not dispute this and argue this in court was trying to sway us to actually getting us to pay the surgery through our own private health insurance. We resisted and in the end.. the insurance had to pay..but to have your own attorney that you are paying to defend your rights side with the insurance company is a huge red flag that your interests are not their top priority. Also.. there was one time that our TTD payments stopped abruptly and he had to go in on a 19B to petition the court to reinstate the payment and for penalties/interest for the unjust delay.. Well... he did go to court but NO interest and penalties were awarded...so they called us to pick up the check from their offices..now the check was NOT from the Insurance Company but ANKIN LAW..so they had cashed it took out 20% for going to court..(even though its my understanding that the 20% only comes out at the end of the settlement) also..when we did go to the Chase branch to cash it since that is the bank they used, they told us they couldnt cash it because IT WAS NOT SIGNED!!!! So we had to GO BACK to them to have it signed.. had it been just our first screw up with this firm... Id let it pass..but given everything else about this firm... and their shady practices... well Ill leave it up to you to decide if the glowing reviews are real or fake."
