“My experience was beyond wonderful! My lawyer was compassionate, thoughtful and caring every step of the way. For almost 2 years Gabby was by my side along with her staff guiding me and supporting me through a very stressful time. I could not have chosen a better team! I am so thankful for everything Gabriela Raful has done for me and having her in my life. She is the kind of lawyer that supports you and believes in you.”

“They put their heart and soul to get you the help needed”

“Thank you all for ensuring my favorable decision. It was a pleasure working with the entire team and gave me an opportunity to focus on feeling better. I am especially appreciative of your expertise and unsurpassed compassionate client service. Best wishes for a wonderful holiday and new Year.”

“Very helpful and caring law firm. Ask for peter patton if you want your injury case handled well!

“The firm handled the filing and paper work for my wife’s Social Security Disability Benefits. The process was very easy and communication during the entire process was great. The attorney handling our case was thorough and kept us updated frequently during the process. They were able to get us SSDI back pay, that we never even anticipated.”

We appreciate the support your company provides to the New World Association. Thanks to people like you, we are able to provide excellent services to educationally and economically disadvantaged people in Northeast Philadelphia, and help them acquire knowledge and skills necessary to carry out daily responsibilities as proficient workers, caring parents and responsible citizens.

I just wanted to say that I was very moved by the culture that you and your predecessors have developed at Galfand Berger.  We all try to do the best work that we can every day and, in so doing, strive to provide the highest level of service to our clients.  For many of us, this is just a given.  If we are going to be successful in business, we need to do our best work every day.  We need to reward our clients for their trust.  That being said, what defines you and your colleagues as terrific people is that you do work for others who can never really repay you.  For me, this is the mark of a successful person. I just want to share a heartfelt than you to you and your partners at Galfand Berger for the way that you support our local community.

This firm was efficient, helpful, handled details in a very timely manner, and respected the fact that I am disabled and could not always get to their office. . . . They are a great law firm. I was in the insurance claim industry for 25 years, so I have dealt with quite a few attorneys. This firm is top-rate.

After the sudden lost of my father, I was recommended to this law firm. I didn’t know what to expect . I couldn’t even think clear. Deb. Jensen, was the most caring, knowledgeable, personable attorney I have ever met..and most of all she listened to me! She told me to focus on getting better and to go ahead and grieve my fathers death. I was always kept informed about the status of the case. The office staff including Elaine Sachs were the best!! Most of all great results! View Avvo Rating

“I was represented by Richard Jurewicz. He went far and beyond what I expected as a lawyer. He kept me well informed every step of the way. When it was time for me to go meet them in Philadelphia I met Elaine Sachs. She was great. I always felt they kept my best interest in mind. They laid out my options and help me understand the outcome of every situation that could or would happen. I never felt out of the loop at anytime i was always well treated and they understood my goal towards an outcome. Also my case was handled during the pandemic so everything was handled remotely if I ever had a question a facetime meeting was scheduled or a conference call. They were great. I highly recommend them and the firm to anyone in need. ”

“Hi Rick – I just wanted to offer my congratulations on being recognized as a top 100 Super Lawyer in Pennsylvania. I hope you are well and coping with this virus challenge – All the Best”

“I would like to thank Rick Jurewicz for taking my case and helping me and family through this rough time. It was nice to work with an attorney that truly cared about my family and took a personal interest in my situation. Office staff was always so helpful in anything that I needed. I would highly recommend this firm!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Rick. I can see why he is always on the top lawyers list for receiving awards and recognitions.
It’s been along three years for me and my family. Rick has helped us with some much. A lot of legal jargon that he’s very good at explaining and making me understand.
And he has a wonderful staff that was always helpful with anything that I needed.”

“Rick Jurewicz represented me during a very difficult time ,and kept me informed with all the details of my case. I could call him at any time and he would pick up the phone an answer any concerns I would have. Rick would also call just to check in on me make sure I was doing okay , he always kept me updated on recent information about my case. Rick did great job of preparing me for what I needed to do next in my case. I was very pleased with him ,and his firm for their hard work. Mike McGurrin also did great job keeping me informed on details of my case , and made sure I understood everything . I would highly recommend Galfand Berger LLP to anyone that needs there expertise.”

“My experience with Galfand Berger was a very positive one. I worked with Rick Jurewicz and he was absolutely great! I couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer. The staff was excellent – they kept me up to speed and were very responsive… answered all my questions quickly and efficiently. My case is settled and I am very pleased with the outcome. I would recommend this firm to everyone!”

“Good morning Rick..I want to take the time to thank you and my gratitude to you and the staff to make all this posible for me and my family..very professional and it’s a honor to me as well knowing the great person you are..my respect to you and your staff..I’m here as will if you need me in the future..God bless you and your family for all eternity..you are a great man for helping people the way you did..”pay it forward”..I will definitely put your name up high for the best lawyer in town..”

“Rick and his team were amazing through the entire process. They treated us like family instead of just another client. Elaine was calling us and keeping us updated and just to check on us. I would recommend this law firm to anyone.”

Honest, helpful and very professional. View Avvo Rating

I was very pleased with the settlement of my case, which was a result of the hard work of attorney Rick Jurewicz with the assistance of attorney Henry Yampolsky. Expert advice was also given to me by attorney Marc Jacobs concerning Workers’ Compensation.
Thank you for winning my case, and I was glad to have your team of super lawyers represent me. When anyone I know needs representation, your law firm would be the only one I would recommend.”

If you are injured Rick is the lawyer you should call. I was turned down by other lawyers, but Mr. Jurewicz picked up my case and pursued it vigorously for 6 years to a successful conclusion. There was little hope but he stuck with me and I was satisfied with the outcome. Outstanding. View Avvo Rating

I was actually referred to Richard Jurewiczfrom another law firm who thought he was better suited for me and my case. It is much better to get a lawyer referred from one of his peers than to call one of those who use an actor to do their advertising on TV. He was honest and upfront with me from beginning to end, and I always thought he kept me and my family’s best interest in mind. He made it easy for me to be a client and kept me informed on what to expect and what was next. He treated me as an equal who deserved the best lawyer to be on my side. I felt he could not have done a better job for me and I am very happy and pleased to have had him represent me. I would call him again if I ever needed him and would highly recommend him to anyone who believes they are in need of a lawyer. View Avvo Rating

Rick came into our lives at a most crucial time. I did not know if my husband would ever survive the accident. Rick was supportive, advised us without telling us what to do and was there whenever I needed him, even just to vent. Thankfully, we settled out of court, but I would have liked to watch him in a courtroom.
We don’t consider Rick just our lawyer, but also a friend. We would recommend his services to anyone who would need it. I consider Rick an important part of my husband’s recovery, along with the hospital, doctors, surgeons and rehab team. Our lives can go on because of his honesty and attention to detail of the case. Before we were contacted by Rick, another lawyer told me that we didn’t have a case. Now we can live the rest of our lives without worry. View Avvo Rating

Richard is the best lawyer for a personal injury case. He is caring, lets you know what’s going on and where you stand. He is very educated and savvy in his field. View Avvo Rating

Honest, helpful and very professional. View Avvo Rating

Rick was just fantastic. We are still friendly with him. He kept in touch with us about everything all the time. We could contact him at any time, and if he was not available, he returned the call promptly. We found Rick to be very knowledgeable about work-related injuries. He pulled no punches when it came to helping us get to the bottom of what happened. We would recommend Rick to anyone who has been injured on the job and needs someone to fight hard for them. We feel like we have made a life long friend. If you need someone to fight hard for you and get you the best that anyone can, Rick is your guy. Thank you. View Avvo Rating

I endorse this lawyer’s work. Rick was a presenter for me in a Medicine for Lawyers seminar. His presentation was articulate, precise, and informative. Rick is a zealous advocate for his clients. He does his homework. He is always prepared. He has a very affable personality which, I believe contributes to his success in the courtroom.

Every opportunity I have to refer a product’s liability case, I refer them to the best: Richard Jurewicz.

I was an opponent of this individual in a complicated litigation matter involving very serious injuries. I was more than impressed with his case preparation, theories of liability and their development and grasp of difficult medical matters. As the result of that experience, I have referred plaintiff’s cases to him and have done joint CLE presentations. Needless to say, I have no hesitation in giving Mr. Jurewicz a 5 star recommendation.

I endorse this lawyer’s work. I have handled a number of cases with Rick and he has always represented his clients aggressively. At the same time, he maintains a realistic outlook and a professional relationship with opposing counsel that fosters honest communication. As a result, the cases we have handled together have always resolved in a fashion that is fair to everyone involved.

I endorse this lawyer’s work. Richard is an extremely competent trial attorney with a particular expertise in product liabilitylitigation. He is a zealous advocate on his client’s behalf and a hard worker.

Rick is an exceedingly capable personal injury trial attorney which is why I refer such cases to him. Rick has been obtaining very favorable results for his clients in difficult personal injury and Workers’ Compensation cases for years and has an excellent reputation.

I would recommend Mr. Jurewicz without reservation. In all of the matters that I have had the opportunity to refer to Mr. Jurewicz, he has demonstrated, in every instance, that he is an exceptionally skilled, competent, and thorough professional. Because of his excellent representation, he has obtained, what I would consider, exceptional settlements on behalf of my clients and I know that they have been extremely pleased with the outcome of their cases.

The law firm of Galfand Berger was hands down the best law firm that I could have chosen. Rick Jerewicz was honest from the very beginning and thorough he made me feel that he was going to fight for me. Elaine Sacks was a blessing to the team after time made me feel like family and never left me in the dark. As my case continued all the paperwork and struggles that Rick encountered was above and beyond what any other law firm would have done period. There was never a time where I doubted them and always was being informed about new situations that came up. The effort they put in made me feel like I was there only client and got all their focus. In ending if you want a law firm like no other and fight for you, you need and recommend putting Galfand Berger in your corner. Thank you Rick Jurewicz and Elaine Sacks. Check them out you wont be sorry!

I have interfaced with many lawyers during my profession in social services and Mike Malvey was the kindest, most professional, deliberate, caring, and client-centered attorney I have ever had the pleasure to know; I feel so grateful that he handled my case. His team at Galfand Berger who supported me and my case as well, specifically paralegal Tess, legal secretary Cheryle, and director of administration Wayne were also extremely attentive, warm, and thorough in their work and follow-up. I could always trust that Mike would take the time to share his expertise from an understandable framework. He would also always emphasize and ensure that I make the final decisions regarding my case. Galfand Berger prioritized my well-being and wishes before financial gain for the firm. At the same time, Mike and his team went above and beyond to secure funds for pain and suffering that made peace of mind and financial relief possible for me; without their help, my past few years and years ahead would have been much more difficult. I was always treated with the utmost respect by their office and cannot recommend their services highly enough. Thank you Mike, Tess, and Cheryle, Wayne for your zealous advocacy, skill, care, and for bringing your full humanity to your work!

“Overall great experience. Michael Malvey was extremely professional and knowledgeable.
Very sincere and always has my best interest.
Always took time to explain everything and never rushed me with any decisions.
It was a very positive experience.”

“We worked extensively with Michael Malvey on my case over a long period of time so I got to know Michael and his team (God Bless Javier Patino for assisting too –an asset in all ways to the experience) well in a professional setting. I can say now that Michael is the consummate professional; he goes way beyond being a great lawyer as an advocate: He is trusting, caring, good at communicating and at each step of the way I knew I was in great hands and had made a great choice to call him. Michael also gave me great choices–he laid out all the pro’s and con’s at each step, but made it clear the decisions on which way to go where mine and he and the firm would support all my choices. I truly would recommend Michael to anyone, he is tremendous, knowledgeable and a credit to his firm, profession and clients! “

“Thanks again for the stellar representation of my case! Galfand Berger was the first to call and show up; I am eternally grateful. May God continually enlarge your territory!”

“I would not go elsewhere other than Galfand Berger associates for lawyers services. and Mike Malvey was the greatest.”

“Michael helped me with a separation agreement with my former employer. He went over the agreement and helped me better understand the agreement and what some of my choices were. He also put in touch with his colleague Henry, who handles employment cases. They were very helpful, and I’m truly grateful for all their hard work. They both made a difficult situation a lot easier for me.”

I wanted to let you know how glad I am I went with you and your firm.  Of all the guys that called me back after I fell, it was your demeanor and professionalism that stood out, and they were the biggest reasons I went with Galfand Berger.  So really, I guess I wanted to say thanks…

Thanks Mike, and it has been a pleasure working with you, thank you for all of your work and help with my case.  Without your assistance I would have probably settled for next to nothing.

Thank you for everything you did for me.  I am happy and forever grateful.  I will certainly refer family and friends as well as myself if I ever find myself in need of an attorney.

Thank you for all you have done for us.  God Bless you always!

Just want to thank you for a job well done.  I really appreciate all your effort.

“When hurt at work, who else is looking out for YOU? Your employer? The employer’s insurance company? Are you serious? NO WAY! Even when outside of Greater Philadelphia in PA, I was referred to Galfand Berger LLP and Mike McGurrin for help for my injury at work… If your employer or the insurance company insists you sign or threatens you if you don’t sign or otherwise, CALL MIKE ASAP… Mike helped to settle my case favourably after only 6 months after I retained him! A good settlement like I received makes up at least for all those funds and time you were out after getting medical treatment and working to put yourself back together to go back to work.”

“My complacida con el servicio de la Gabriela Raful, excelente profesional.”

“I was represented by attorney Gabriela Raful for my workers comp claim. She explained the process step by step from the beginning, she was truthful and honest and always available. I highly recommend her and the firm.”

“Thanks for all your help in resolving the Workers’ Compensation case. You were a real asset thru the years. No words can express my true appreciation. So, I’ll leave you with a big THANK YOU!”

“To Ms. Raful: I am writing you this letter to thank you for handling and winning my case. Your job performance on that day was excellent when it came to handling my case. There are no words to describe the satisfaction I felt that day when I heard those words that we won my case. Thank you!”

“What I want to say about GB does not fit here because is so much. Gabby Raful and Mike Malvey handled my truck accident and have since become family to me. From the moment that you walk in you can feel the trust and positivity. Yohalna, the paralegal in the front makes you feel comfortable. Javier the Philly paralegal also makes you feel comfortable
Gabby and Mike give 100 percent. Gabby is one of those rare attorneys that text you and keeps you posted all the time even on weekends.They don’t think about money, they think and give you what’s best for you. You can feel the trust and security. Gabby is simply amazing, and they make a dream team. I am Gabby’s number one fan. What I appreciated the most was that I would call Gabby and she would call or text immediately right back. I highly recommend them.”

“When I was uncertain of what to do in my situation, I was given a recommendation to go and find guidance, so I did I visited the office of Galfand Berger LLP and Gabriela Raful took me under her wing. When talking about experience the quest at hand should be plain and simple: Trustworthy, Transparent, Dependable, And full of knowledge. The ability that this attorney has to get her client what they may need is incredible. Gabriela Raful was able to get me the settlement that I deserved and that I became more than grateful for.”

“Gabriela was very professional in the handling of my workers compensation claim. I was very impressed with her knowledge of Pennsylvania Workers Comp. Laws. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case and I highly recommend her.”

“Gabby helped my dad settle his auto accident in less than a year. She got the full policy of the striking car and the entire coverage of my dad’s underinsured coverage. In a year she got everything done! She cares. She called on weekends and evenings and texted all the time. She kept us informed.”

“I have known Gabriela for over ten years as a colleague and friend. Gabriela has the perfect blend of diligence and compassion that is a rarity in the legal field these days. I can truly say that if you want the absolute BEST experience and outcome of your case, look no further than Gabriela. I am proud to have her as a friend and colleague, and anyone would be equally proud to have her as an attorney.”

“Gabby Raful represented me in a pallet jack accident. She is a good human being, compassionate and hard working. I highly recommend her.”

Gabby was absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend her again. As a matter of fact I did recommend her and my friend was extremely pleased with her services. I was and have been dealing with cancer. I had every intention to return to work but that was not to be the case. Gabby basically took care of all matters concerning social security.At the time I was receiving chemo and was so sick I could not even attempt to take care of all the paperwork involved. She was kind,patient and walked me through any questions and concerns. What I was so appreciative of was how she was able to get me my rightful benefits that were due to us. That money helped us out tremendously as I had to leave a job that paid quite well. I would highly recommend Gabby again and I truly believe she is an asset to your firm. Thank You.

Gabby was and is very professional and caring with me as her client and my family when they came with me. I did recommend Gabby to a friend and will continue to do so. She is also handling my disability claim. I absolutely love Gabby she is just such a people person and VERY VERY good at her job and went above and beyond to make sure she did and does everything she can for me. Gabby is definitely the lawyer you want, you will not be disappointed!

Gabby helped my dad in his work injury case and secured a settlement quickly. She wasted no time and knew what she was doing. She went beyond the injury case and helped him filed for disability and got it in just 3 months. She cares about her clients!

Last week, I was involved in an accident & thought it wise to contact someone I trust in these matters. I remember your specialty is Workers’ Compensation but your referral to Gabby [Raful] was one of the best legal representation experiences I’ve had…

I cannot thank you enough for your support throughout this past year navigating this bike/car accident. Your presence and work have helped me heal in a profound way… “Farhan is by far the best! He went above and beyond. He is very knowledgeable, keeps you updated and answers any and all questions promptly. He spent a year and a half on my case and by far exceeded anything I was expecting. Thank you so much, Farhan! You really are amazing and I even kind of miss your updates and little chats we had!”
