Availability - Access to your attorney is important. Whether you call Michael at the office, on his cell, through text, or email, availability is never an issue.
3p
Communication - Fancy legal talk is annoying. Nobody outside the law understands it. Michael explains complex legal issues in plain English, and provides step-by-step guidance from start to finish. Equally important is the skill of listening to the client. An attorney must be able to take the time to listen and understand the client's story, and the harm that was done. Only then can the attorney effectively argue the case to get maximum compensation.
Efficiency
Efficiency - Efficiency is a top priority. Continuous work activity at every stage of the process guarantees that cases do not sit around and get stale. Moving forward and staying aggressive helps achieve success without unnecessary delays to the client.

HOW WE WIN FOR OUR CLIENTS

You’re injured. You’re frustrated. You want to win and get your life back.

Attorney Michael A. Shammas knows how to deliver big wins, and has delivered them on behalf of his clients for years.

We win by pursuing every case with passion and relentless effort. We understand the client’s story and their losses.  We build an aggressive plan of attack from start to finish so it becomes clear to the insurance company that maximum compensation is the only option.  We do not back down. We do not settle for less. We demand that the responsible party pay maximum compensation, not just some compensation.

You pay nothing out of pocket. If we don't win, you don't owe us a dime.
