"We had an accident in MD in Aug of 2018. No one would even return our call at other Firms. Barbara M. at Mr. Katz’s office responded right away and got the ball rolling on my case. Very helpful and she stayed in constant contact until our case was resolved. I absolutely would recommend them to anyone who needs representation.” Will P.
