In my Uninsured Motorist claim to my own insurance company, they delayed for over a year before making me any settlement offer. While a different attorney may have suggested that I accept the offer, Mr. Tomasik urged me to proceed to arbitration. My insurance company and their hired doctors said ridiculous things at arbitration that shocked me, but Mr. Tomasik wrote a 36 page brief and fought hard on every point. It paid off, as the arbitrator awarded more than three times my insurance company's initial offer. My collision dramatically affected my life, and I trusted Mr. Tomasik when I could not trust my own insurance company. He came through when I needed him, and it is obvious that he really cares about his clients.
I wanted to thank you for your great service and help with my legal needs surrounding my motorcycle accident. From the beginning, you both have been extremely professional, helpful and thorough in your handling of these matters. You were very clear in explaining all the complicated details of what was happening. I appreciated your diligence in dealing with the insurance companies. Without your help I would have been lost. Your council and guidance helped me feel like I was making informed decisions through this process.
Jessie, you have always been courteous and respectful. You were always timely with information and communication. You were a pleasure to work with. Thank you for your hard work.
Mr. Tomasik, you always made me feel that my case was important and that you were working hard on my behalf to represent me and bring the best possible result to my case. I was well informed in all matters with both the property damage and personal injury aspects of my case. You helped me tremendously during a very stressful and difficult time.
On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give you a 20! On behalf of myself and my family, thank you for your great representation and service. I would recommend you highly to anyone in need of legal representation and council.
Best regards,
His style of representing clients is that of a pure gentleman, perhaps belonging to a category that is of the past and now underrepresented in our fast-paced, quick-to-judge society. Where most greedy lawyers stop because they cannot comprehend the gravity of a case, or it becomes too much work, he picks up his "Scepter of Integrity" and follows through on all of the details. But do not underestimate the meaning of gentleman; when all negotiations fail, Mr. Tomasik is fearless if he has to go to trial to get justice, which was in my case.
The defense counsel for the insurance company fought bitterly at trial, but Joe fought back even harder. His witness preparation was superb. He educated, communicated, and most of all, supported me in our 10-day-trial from the beginning to the end. I was fortunate to have Joe represent me in my complicated case. I learned so much that I was able to stand up for my own rights - with full knowledge - to any lawyer, mediator, clerk and even judge. He strengthened me to walk upright even though I was in pain from CRPS/RSD in both arms and hands.
His motto is simple and his philosophy is classic Berkelian: "The Truth Shall Make You Free". It works! Clients sometimes don't know about the law and all the intricacies, and I was no exception. He was there for me at any hour to support me in believing in myself when things started to look bleak, which made our final victory sweeter in the end, and therefore I highly recommend him to anyone who is in need of an excellent lawyer.
