Part 3 At this point I let GHEVONNE LOPEZ know that I did not feel comfortable with her representing me and I would like Mr. Glauber to represent me. With much attitude and the rolling of her neck, she said she would recluse herself and schedule a meeting with another attorney. She then escorted us out of her office, and the building via the servants quarters. Thank God my friend Sean attended this meeting with me. He suggested that I reschedule the Urgent Care doctor visit. Go directly to the insurance approved doctor they had scheduled and see if I could get an earlier appointment. (Gracefully, they obliged and I was able to see the doctor right away. After his thorough examination and assessment he recommended I do not return to work). On June 26, 2017 I received an email stating that the Law Offices of GLAUBER/BERENSON felt that there was a break-down of the attorney-client relationship and it is impossible for GLAUBER/BERENSON to effectively represent me. GLAUBER/BERENSON fired me! Kicking me out as a client with the advice to find another attorney as soon as possible. Also, included in this email was a Notice of Dismissal of Attorneys form that they wanted me to sign and return immediately. I refused to sign the document. Then the communication began. It went from receiving no phone calls from the offices of GLAUBER/BERENSON to now receiving daily phone calls and emails requesting that I sign the dismissal documents. I ignored their communication. I was perplexed by their insistence on me signing the documents, until I was educated to the fact that until I sign the documents of dismissal GLAUBER/BERENSON by law still had to represent me. GLAUBER/BERENSON was eager to part ways with me, and I with them. They even attempted to set up a meeting with the 2nd name on the marquee, Ms. Berenson. I refused. The GLAUBER/BERENSON firm had put me in a catch 22. Finding a new lawyer willing to take my case became a labor. Very few workers comp lawyers will take on a case if another law firm has been involved. This is because the first firm normally attaches a lien to the case. Which GLAUBER/BERENSON did. A lien, Imagine that! They logged 19 business days on my case. They literally put me, “IN BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE.” Yet, the GLAUBER/BERENSON group was demanding $10,000.00 of my settlement. After unsuccessfully soliciting 7 lawyers I was able to secure a great one. The Law Firm of Susan Lavian. Ms Lavian took on my case and gave me the caring, and professional attention I needed. She has given me great advice with clarity on how to proceed while addressing the insurance and doctor issues. I would highly recommend The Law Offices of Susan Lavian, and personally Susan Lavian. My case has been moving forward…, 2 MRI’s and a 3rd one scheduled. 3 bulging discs in my back, and other debilitating issues in my neck and lower extremities resulting from my fall. Thanks, GLAUBER/BERENSON for almost botching my case. If I can give any advice to anyone seeking representation for a workers comp claim AVOID GLAUBER/BERENSON. MR. GLAUBER AND HIS GROUP WILL SAY ANYTHING TO GET YOUR BUSINESS AND THEN YOU WILL NOT HEAR FROM HIM. I am going to present my case to the Bar with a formal complaint…..especially the expert legal opinion from GHEVONNE LOPEZ, “IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE YOU ARE IN BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE.” Everything I’ve stated in this missive is fact, and I am more than willing to meet with anyone who is considering hiring the GLAUBER/BERENSON group and share my 19 days worth of correspondence to substantiate the claims I level against them. Their incompetence and how they treat their clients should be considered criminal.

I had a very complicated Worker Comp case. One of the partners is on the Board to review new attorney licenses and was on the State Board for Worker Comp previously. I was advised that I was not eligible for Worker Comp, but was referred to another attorney for SDI and SSI. They took some time with me and consulted before explaining what my options were. Very professional.
